Tie-Dying Shirts

The last couple weeks have been insane. 
So much going on, I'm still working on getting back to normal. 

The most recent round of Iron Craft called for making something for yourself.
The round started just before I headed out of town to a convention where I run a charity auction to benefit Tiger Haven Sanctuary.

Even when I got back home I was too busy trying to catch up on sleep to do much of anything. 
Finally Sunday, two days before posting date, I had a little time.

At the convention we always get t-shirts with that years theme. Sometimes the shirts are really cute but always on a white base. I really don't like wearing white.

So I took a tie-dying kit I had on hand and added some color to our shirts.

I gathered up the picture area and kept it separate so the dye wouldn't ruin the pictures. Then oddly gathered and rubber banded the rest and coated with the dye.

On the left is is my staff shirt, on the right is the regular convention shirt. 
Our mascot is a skunk and this years theme was Chinese zodiac, year of the skunk.
