Tie Dye Patterns: Ice Dyed Rainbow Geode Style [Muck Dyed]
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 фев 2025
- In this tutorial video I show how I made a single geode style tie dye shirt using a dye over the ice style of ice dyeing. In addition, this shirt was muck dyed, which just means that I allowed it to process down inside of the runoff from the melting ice and dye. I also give a little longer explanation of the rinse process.

I absolutely love this shirt. What a great job. Thank you, Angie.
Thank you so much! 😀
THANK YOU for showing how you tied it from start to finish! i’ve been looking for a tutorial on how to tie a geode without a single starting point and yours is the first who shows it from the beginning
You are so welcome, I'm glad I could help!
I think this shirt is beautiful!
Thank you! 🙂
I’m going in! I already tied it and now I’m going to go put the dye on it!
Awesome - have fun!
@@FunEndeavors Okay, it did t come out. Not even close. Pretty colors, but no white lines. I thought I really cranked down on the sinew! Then I used Daffodil yellow next to orange next to green. I think to orange ate everything. I will take a picture after it dries. It’s a nice shirt, but I’m disappointed! It was a lot of work to tie and even more work to untie.
@@iknowheis I'm so sorry - I left a comment on your Facebook post, but I'll repost it here as well.
To get the white sinew lines it is easier if you tie your shirt damp, and pull the sinew as tight as possible. You will feel it catch on itself and begin to tighten or lock down on the shirt. I keep pulling until I feel like I can't pull it any tighter. If the line ended up being thinner than I wanted it to - I add a few more wraps of sinew on top of the line I just finished and repeat the process. As the shirt dries, it will tighten around the sinew lines. All sinew isn't the same either. I've gotten rolls of sinew in the past that didn't work quite as well. Sometimes they don't have enough wax coating or just aren't as easy to work with. So, if you've followed the steps above or if you are having sinew problems on other designs - it could be the roll of sinew that you are using. It can also be difficult to get the sinew super tight without a sinew puller. For years I just used the spool to tighten the sinew, but when I got my first sinew puller it was a game changer. It was so much easier. A puller doesn't have to be fancy. I've seen people use tart tampers and all kinds of other things. It just needs to be something sturdy that won't break and will fit your hand well.
So, a few of the rainbow colors can be overwhelming. In my experience, orange is one of those colors. It seems to want to overtake all the other colors around it. It kind of did the same thing on my shirt. To avoid this, you can either leave out the orange and the red and yellow should mix to form a line of orange, or you can try to add a smaller amount of orange. Yellow can also be a bit tricky when ice dyeing. It doesn't seem to dissolve as well as the other colors. Therefore, I sometimes add a wider line of yellow than the other colors. I didn't on this shirt, but I also don't have a lot of yellow showing. The orange overtook mine too.
@@FunEndeavors Thank you for your detailed reply! I’ll try it again when I feel brave and with a smaller shirt. This is a 3 x.
@@iknowheis That's a good idea.
Love to watch your videos. Your voice is soothing and helps with the jitters in being new to all this. This shirt came out awesome.
Thank you so much! I'm really glad you like the videos. I hope you have fun tie dyeing.
It always amazes me when I see something like this and see a shirt come out with different colors. This looked pretty awesome on it's own, but blows my mind that it didn't just turn black or something with it sitting down in the dye like that.
I know, it's wild isn't it?!
This is exactly what i was thinking! How does it not end up just brown?
@@Stammyify I think because the fabric soaks up the dye and fixes to the shirt molecules (saturates the fabric) with color before the muck piles up, right?
@@TheBWWaterfront I just don't understand lol :D In the video she says "i went ahead and let this sit for two days" so theres plenty of time to let the muck pile up.
Unless its a heat reactive colour, then i guess it wouldn't bond that well but i just can't comprehend why does it not turn brown :D
This a nice way to spend the day watching your tutorials
😎🇳🇿
Awesome, I'm glad you are enjoying them! 😊
I love the orange-y bits - they really make the whole thing pop.
Thank you - I'm glad you like it!
When it gets done, I’ll post it to your fb page!
That sounds great!
@@FunEndeavors I didn’t wait for it to get all the way dry. I posted a picture to your fb page under this geode post on fb. Please critique. I must have done tons of things wrong.
I love the shirt and the colors they're fabulous!
Thank you so much! 🙂
Very nice result for something I think is easy enough for me to take the plunge with geode ice dyes. Thanks. Your videos are always amazing.
Thank you! This design would be a great one to start with. I personally like to go a little easy on the orange when I apply it. Orange tends to overwhelm a lot of the other colors. Have fun with it!
I think it looks great! Thank you for sharing your techniques.. I watch your channel all the time. ❤
Thank you, I appreciate you watching! 😊
I LOVE THIS SHIRT!!! Thank you for your video!
Awesome - I'm glad you like it!
I loved this one! I made one similar & get compliments constantly. Thank you for your videos.
Awesome! I really like this design. 😀
I can't believe how well that turned out considering how it was created. Absolutely stunning.
Thank you - I'm glad you like it! 🙂
This is the best Geode I have ever seen. I love the colors and I want to try doing this too. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Thanks so much 😊
I was prepared not to like this ( Ice Dyed) but Ang you have won me over well done
Awesome - I'm glad you like it!
And yes I love that technique of putting the dye over ice that's really cool. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you!
I love it! I can't believe the distinct color placement and colors that don't run in the muck. I saw the picture, heard you say muck and wondered how the distinct colors come out if it's a muck dye. AND, that you put the dye on top of the ice. Turned out really great. Again, this ice dying is becoming more appealing to me. Also, you do a superb job explaining your process, appreciates that!
Thank you! I love how unique each ice dye turns out. I'm also really glad that you are enjoying the videos.
Love the shirt. I’m going to try and make for myself
Awesome! Thank you!
Another winner! It's gorgeous!
Thank you! 😊
Love the DOI shirts. ! And it makes applying the dyes easier and still retains the original colors' character in the final design .way cool! Keith M.🎹
Thank you! 🙂
Best geode dye I’ve ever seen. Great stuff girl As always! 😁
Thank you - I'm glad you like it! 🙂
Reminds me of an oil slick in a parking lot on a rainy day. Beautiful! 💙💙💙
Ha - thank you!
I love dark, intense color in tie-dye. This really makes me want to try this!
Thank you! I love the way this one turned out too!
Simply gorgeous.
Thank you! 😊
Love it
It turned out so beautiful! Makes me think of an ever expanding soundwave or something.
Thank you - that's a cool description for it!
Let’s be honest,… colors just flow in nature.
Face the facts, people.
Nice shirt.
Thank you!
Beautiful as always! I love rainbows!! ❤️🌈
Thank you! 😊
@@FunEndeavors I made one of these shirts and I get compliments on it all the time! I'm very new to tie-dye - your tutorials give me the confidence to try something new! Thank you!!
@@lisacoody That's awesome! It sounds like your shirt turned out really cool. It's always fun to try something new.
Live this! Can’t wait to try it!
Thank you! 🙂
Nice colors. Like the pattern.
Thank you! I love the way this one turned out!
one of my favorites!
Thank you so much! 😀
I just don"t get how you don"t end up with a mess lol..super. really pretty..love it..also never seen the dye on top of the ice either..this is great!..thanks for sharing
Thank you! 🤗 I know it's wild how that works isn't it?!
Your instructions and explanations are excellent! Beautiful shirt! ❤
Thank you so much! 🙂
Wow! So pretty
Thank you! 😊
Stunning!
Thank you! 😊
I think it's fantastic an outcome. Lovely, just lovely. Yay❗
Thank you! 😊
Beautiful 🌈
Thank you! 😊
Gorgeous!
Thank you! 😊
Gorgeous shirt. I've been wanting to try a ice dye in the muck. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! 🙂
Just made my first muck dye t-shirts this past weekend, can't wait to do this one next week! Its beautiful, having so much fun. Having my granddaughter over this weekend and we are tie dying tennis shoes. She loves tie dye too!
That's awesome! I'm sure you all will have lots of fun! 🙂
Beautiful!
Thank you! 🙂
Beautifull results 👍🙂
Thank you! 😊
Hey Angie, I like this and geodes are not my favorite design. You know me I love ice dyes. Thanks for sharing I always learn something new from your videos.
Thank you so much - I'm glad you like it!
Somebody would post this on etsy real quick!😂🥰🌈
This is so pretty & organic! I really like the gentle offset curve. Thanks so much for another great video!
Thank you! 😊
LOVE this one
Thank you so much! 🙂
Thank you for this video! Yours came out great! I’m going to try this today as I’m inspired now 😊
Awesome - I hope you have fun with it!
@@FunEndeavors thank you! So far so good
@@FunEndeavors Quick question how long do I have to wait for the shirt to dry out? It’s 24 hour sufficient or 48 hours?
It depends on your climate. It usually takes a day or two to dry out where I live.
The little bit of ice dyeing I’ve done has been dye on top of ice. I really like the results you acquired. I’m ready to try this design.
Awesome - have fun with it!
I love it. This is my next one. And I will do this one for me.
Awesome - I think this is a fun design! 😀
I can’t wait to try this, beautiful outcome.
Thanks so much 😊
Wow! I LOVE this shirt. Really skeptical of putting dye on the ice. But results speak for themselves 🌈😍
Thank you - I really love the way this one turned out too!
I use nature as a color and scheme reference all the time. I love the shirt 🙏🙏 just found you yesterday, watched about 5 or 6 vids so far. Definitely subscribed, I love meeting people in the dye biz!!
Awesome! Thank you - I'm so glad that you are enjoying the videos!
the colors and pattern look incredible. great job.
Thank you so much!
Great job❤
Thank you! 🙂
That’s so beautiful. I will definitely have to try one of these.
Thank you - I hope you have fun with it!
I love it! Gorgeous how the colors combined.
Thank you! 😊
Love this and can’t wait to try it!!! Thanks so much!
Thank you - have fun with it!
Fantastic result will try this now
Awesome, have fun with it! 😀
I made this shirt i came out unique but i learned that to get crisp lines i need to tie sinew a lil more tightly.. tks for the beautiful idea
@@claycutter Yes, the lines need to be really tight to get the definition. I think it is much easier to get sinew lines tight by using a sinew puller. You don't have to use a fancy one if you don't own one. I've seen people use a variety of things for a puller such as a wooden tart tamper.
Thanks for the advice. I was thinking the same that this reel of sinew is getting tangled because of pulling it too hard and probably i didnot made the sinew line thick. I am making another one today the green twofer and hoping to see a pretty design. Thank you for everything:)
@@claycutter You're welcome! I think you'll be amazed how much tighter you can get your sinew with a puller, I know I was. 😀
Lovely indeed
Thank you! 😊
I love this one. Amazing how it turns out like that. I want to try!
Thank you - I love the way this one turned out! 🙂
Wow! This is so pretty!
Thank you - I really love the way this shirt turned out! 😊
❤ brilliant!
Thank you so much! 😊
Very nice!
Thank you! 🙂
Turned out great I love the colours I haven’t tried geode from end to end yet I have to give it a shot✌️
Thanks so much - I really love the way this one turned out! 😊
Very pretty outcome. Do you think dye on top of the comes out better then under the ice?
Not necessarily - I really like both dye application methods. I think putting the dye on top of the ice gives a little softer feel.
This is so gorgeous. I notice that almost all the dyes you chose for this project are pure colors, meaning they won't split. Did you choose them deliberately for that feature? Should I avoid splitty colors when I try this shirt? Thanks!
Thank you! I chose to use some of the traditional rainbow colors that I use when I liquid dye a rainbow. You could definitely use rainbow colors that split though. That would give some added surprises to the shirt. From past experience, I've found that orange is a pretty aggressive color, so I would suggest going a little lighter on the orange. Have fun, and let me know how it goes.
Love this! I am totally making one for myself :)
Awesome - I hope you have fun with it! 🙂
This is a great mystery to me. Please tell me how you got the dye over ice to dye the stripes between the ties? This is like miraculous to me. Was there a way the shirt was placed or the dye was placed that made it line up between the ties?
It is crazy how that happens, isn't it?! I did a single geode tie dye the other day and randomly applied the dye to the top of the ice instead of adding it in stripes to see how the dye would travel on the geode. It followed the lines too.
I love it!
Thank you so much! 🙂
Thank you I am using this on a dress.
Awesome - I think this design will look great on a dress! 🙂
Beautiful shirt. I never would have imagined it would turn out like that. Why don't shirts soaking in muck look like muck? And if it doesn't look like muck why muck dye? I can't figure this one out yet.
Thank you! I leave the shirt alone and don't move it around a lot, so the colors don't really mix and muddy too much. They are darker though. Almost like you put a darkening filter on the shirt. The shirt would be brighter if I would've rack dyed it instead of dyeing it in the muck.
Sometimes it is just easier (depending on the odd shape of the fold) to muck dye something rather than try to make an ice barrier and rack dye it. If you muck dye an item, you don't have to continue to add ice either. You add the initial layer and leave it alone.
With this shirt, I wanted to see what adding the dye in stripes over the ice would do. I am amazed at how the dye follows the sinew lines and makes lines on the shirt instead of random blotches of color.
Love it.
Thank you! 🙂
Hi Angie!! I love this . I have not tried the over ice yet. Have you tried this technique not in the muck?
Thank you! I have, but not with this particular design and color palette. I'll have to try it though.
Love it! I just did one like this 2 weeks ago with fall colors. Looks the same just diff colors! Love all the extra info in this one! Very helpful! Also, did u see a diff in puting the dyes on top of the ice versus under ? I think it looks the same as under.
Thank you! I think there is a little different look to putting the colors over the ice vs. under the ice with this design. I think when the dye goes under the ice the colors are more distinct within the lines. Over the ice I think they flow more gently from line to line. I hope that makes sense. Here is a link to an orange shirt that was tied in a similar fashion, but I put the colors under the ice. On the orange shirt the colors don't flow as much from 1 section to the next one as they do with this shirt: ruclips.net/video/1LE4-pewkWc/видео.html
Hi, love your work. I am trying to do tie dye around a full time job. Trying to pre prep when I can. Any suggestions? How far in advance can I mix my liquid dyes (Dharma pro powders)? I have SO many questions and I have been watching videos straight for 2 months. lol, not as easy as you make it look. :)
Thank you - I'm glad you are enjoying the videos! I think it is easier to prep your shirts in advance and mix dye just before you are ready to use it. I normally tie a bunch of shirts all at one time. If a lot of them look similar, I will lay a piece of paper on top of the shirt with a description of what it is so that I don't get them mixed up. It won't hurt your shirts to dry out before you add dye to them. Some designs like this one I always let dry out before I add dye to them anyway. Then you can add dye to them when you have a chance. I try to plan my shirts and scale the dye to mix only the amount that I need for that shirt. I usually have a little bit left over, but I try not to have too much.
So, it might work out well to tie your shirts on the weekend and then dye them a few at a time throughout the week. It won't hurt to leave them to process for a few days, and so you can do a large rinse out at the end of the week.
Greetings - I'm trying this but using three colors. I usually do DUI. Now that ice has melted I can see some spotting - any advice on how to avoid? PS thanks for sharing your talent and creativity ✌️
Hi! Unfortunately, spotting is pretty common with ice dyeing. Some colors seem to be worse than others too. I turn my shirts inside out to try to help with that. It doesn't stop the spotting, but it keeps some of the smaller speckles from showing through on the front side. I have heard some people try laying down a piece of paper towel or some other item to try to avoid it, but I don't know how well that works.
@@FunEndeavors I've started turning inside out as well - thanks!
@@marymcdonald8459 Great - that will help some.
What dyes are you using? Acid, fiber reactive? Soda ash is usually used with fiber reactive dyes, but they are cold water dyes. What am I missing
I am using fiber reactive dyes.
Lovely🥰🥰
Thank you! 🤗
Probably not the correct post to ask this but have you ever done multi stage dyes? Like ice, liquid then ice again? I have a huge tablecloth I’m going to use for my backdrop and I was thinking of doing a few different styles on it. I understand I’ll have to wash it and soak it multiple times. Just wondering ✌🏻❤️
I've done a few like that (spirographs, painted shirts, re-dyes, reverse dyes, etc...). I'm sure you already know that once an item has been dyed, it will release some of the dye into your soda ash solution when you soak it again. I usually pour a little of the soda ash into a separate container to soak items like that in so that it doesn't contaminate my main soda ash container.
Sometimes it is easier to add the soda ash into your liquid dye instead of doing another soda ash soak. Of course you would need to use the dye immediately, but I've done that several times when I'm adding dye to an already dyed shirt.
Have fun with your tablecloth - it sounds like it's going to be a cool backdrop!
@@FunEndeavors TY
Love this! I see a lot of tie dyers use the sinew with the wooden handle like you've got. I've got the sinew from Amazon buy I'd like to find a handle so I can pull it tighter. Can you tell me where you found yours?
Thank you! I love my sinew puller. I have small hands and so it really helps me get a better grip so that I can pull the sinew tighter. I purchased mine from Nikolay Savin. He sells them through his facebook page: facebook.com/nstiedye/
What is the wooden rod you have the sinew wrapped around. I looked at your links and didn’t see that item:) I ordered the sinew from your link. Is there some brands that come with that rod inside or do you re-wrap on that rod for use. Thanks for the tips :)
It is a sinew puller that I ordered from Nikolay Savin. The best way to contact him if you are interested is through his facebook page. Here is the link: facebook.com/nstiedye/
I have a question. I bought some dresses on sale on Old Navy. They are 55% cotton and 45% rayon. I read where rayon is easy to tear. Do you think I could do a tie like this on this dress. The colors and design would be beautiful. What do you think? Also the dress is lined. Is this too much fabric to do this with?
You could do this tie with the dress, but don't pull the sinew super tight. I've heard of people actually cutting the fabric into two pieces from pulling sinew really tight on rayon. The lining may not dye (depending on what it is made of), but I don't think the added fabric would be a problem. This would make a really pretty dress.
@@FunEndeavors Thank you.
@@iknowheis You're welcome!
I am right now watching your video and tying my shirt. I have been tying for ten minutes, I just got out of the 3X sleeve! What is that colored squiggle you put on your shirt for? Help!
I am not quite sure what colored squiggle you are referring to.
@@FunEndeavors It was while you were tying the shirt, you made a squiggle…. But I got passed that and tied it all up and am waiting for it to dry. I think I may tie some more. I want to get the fan fold down Pat. You make it look easier than it is. I need a table!
@@iknowheis It's definitely easier to tie on a table.
I got A question to you: Do you have Fire Red which is 1.Ib that I have inside my big white Package. Do you got the same thing like Mine.
Probably - the Fire Red that I use is from Dharma Trading Company.
@@FunEndeavors And I actually bought the same thing from Dharmw Trading Company.
G♥️RGEOUS! 🤗😍🥰
Thank you so much! 😊
It’s funny but after all this time I still haven’t tried dye over ice. Going to put that on my to do list 😁
You absolutely should. It never ceases to amaze me how the dye over the ice seems to find the various geode sections and follow the sinew lines. No matter how I put the shirt in the container and apply the dye, each section is a different color.
Is soda ash "washing soda" ?
Yes, it is! Arm and Hammer is the brand that I'm familiar with.
Can you reuse the string you are using to tie the shirts?
I know that some tie dyers do reuse their sinew. However, I do not. I don't know if there is enough wax coating left to work properly once it has been used.
What are the other dye companies you use besides Dharma ?
I buy from Pro Chemical and Dye in Massachusetts, Dyespin in Missouri, Grateful Dyes in Colorado, and Custom Colours in North Carolina. Custom Colours has their store closed right now though.
The artistic alchemist giants that used to roam this rock decided to leave behind gems and geodes for people to find, whether it ever becomes realised or not.😉
😀
do you remember the brand of TShirt? Im nervous with muck dying and want to make sure I use a tried & true shirt brand
Hi Patty! I'm pretty sure it was a Gildan Ultra Cotton t-shirt.
❤
😊
Nice variation on the geode pattern. Looks like you lost most of your yellow. It might be the one color to place under the ice.
Thank you! You're right - the yellow was overtaken by the other colors.
💕💕💕💕💕💕
Thank you! 😊
I absolutely love your 💡 idea! I love to tie dye alot of things! I'm actually getting ready to tie-dye a set of sheets and curtains made out of tshirt material. If you have any ideas for me, please contact me. I'd love to hear from you 😁
Thank you! That sounds like a lot of fun - I hope they turn out great!
@@FunEndeavors if I remember, I'll send you a couple of pics!😁
@@tanyaharless2209 I'd love that!
Love it usually forget that you can put dye over ice
Thank you! 😀
My first video…what is soda ash?
Soda ash is used to raise the pH so that the fiber reactive dye that I use bonds properly with the fabric. Here is a link to a blog post I made explaining what soda ash is and the use for it in tie dyeing. www.funendeavors.com/tie-dye-blog/zd1qlk7dvuzwrglfbio4yvs2t6c97d
