This is a beautiful shirt. Inspiration through nature always makes things better. Maybe Tigers eye or Malachite. There's so may beautiful stones to choose from. I love Obsidian and Fluorite.
Thank you so much! 😊 Thank you for the stone suggestions too. I'm making a list of all the stone suggestions so that I can look them up when I'm looking for inspiration.
Beautiful geode shirt, love the color combination. Malawi, Turkish, Mexican Crazy Lace agates. Labradorite. Finally my two favorite pastimes are combined, lapidary and tie dye! 🙂
There are dozens of different types of jasper on the less intense colorful, more subdued natural scale. A good place to see a huge variety of minerals online is The Gem Shop. Specimens/slabs/cabochons/rough rocks. Be careful though if you buy the pretty rocks it quickly becomes a new hobbie (obsession)🤣. Strange as it seems rocks and tie dye are similar in enjoyment for me, the beauty (sometimes) in the end that you can bring out from a plain tee shirt or a sometimes plain looking rock. Thank you for your vids, always well done, professional/educational!
@@flamesedge12 I went online to The Gem Shop, and there are so many gorgeous stones! I can see why you like them so much. This site will be a great source of inspiration for me. I can see the similarities in stones and tie dye, each one is so unique! 😀
These are SO beautiful. Mostly what I do now since I'm in a water restrictive desert is dipping damp fabric and letting the color "travel" up the cloth. Then I hang them as curtains and the sun makes them look like stained glass. I can't imagine what this design would look like with sunlight going thru the colors. Great Job!!
Thank you so much! 😊 Your curtains sound so pretty. I've experimented a little bit with allowing the dye to travel up the cloth. During the summer though, I mainly do the opposite and make gravity dyes by encouraging the dye to freely flow down the fabric.
So complex and beautiful looking, Angie. I always marvel at people's geodes. I have a large chunk of Labradorite. It's shades of blue and green. It's really pretty. I wish there was a way to make a Petoskey stone pattern on fabric. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much! I really love how the colors work together on this one. Labradorite is beautiful, and Petoskey is a cool stone. It's like a bunch of little bursts.
I like that the front of the shirt is separated from the back of the shirt , food for thought. Look at some Azurite-Malachite a beautiful combination of color. Go to a rock and gem show, there is nothing like the real thing. I’m sure you will enjoy yourself ( bring some money).
Thank you so much, I'm glad you like it! 😀 I think how Azurite-Malachite fuse together is so cool. I'd love to go to a rock and gem show. I think that Geology is fascinating!
I have 2 pullers that I use. I use a wooden one that I purchased from Nikolay Savin several years ago. You can find and message him on facebook if you'd like one of his pullers. Then I use a colorful one that I purchased from Boredom With Jenn. She sells pullers and caddies. Here is a link to her website: shopboredomwithjenn.com/collections/everything-boredom-with-jenn
Great shirt! You must be a fellow 'Rockhound.' =) When you say, "let the shirt process," are you using heat? I live @ over 5,000 ft & it's too cold to process outside in the sun. Inquiring minds want to know. ;)
Thank you so much! I do love rocks and how unique each one is. I find Geology very fascinating. When I say that I process the shirt, it just means that I leave it alone to allow time for the dye to bond properly with the fabric. This time of year I process my shirts inside of my dye space, and I normally try to keep my space around 70 degrees Fahrenheit. It is only December and I'm already missing the hot weather and the ability to be able to process tie dye outside. It takes a little longer when the weather is cold to get the vibrant colors. I don't use heat since I have them in a warm space. However, I've heard that other tie dyers do. Some use seed mats, heaters, blankets, heating pads, and all kinds of creative things to get their tie dye warm enough. In general, if it is over 70 degrees Fahrenheit that's warm enough for most colors. Turquoise is the exception because it likes it really hot. If you don't have a space that gets to 70 degrees, you can just let them process a longer amount of time. You can also let the ice melt, put them in some sort of a plastic container with a lid and let them process. The container with a lid will help keep them from drying out during the longer processing time. Lastly, you can allow the ice to melt and then finish off the shirt with a hot water irrigation process to make sure the dye is bonded with the fabric. The ice dye process should get you the cool color splits, and then the hot water irrigation will just make sure the dye is bonded without having to wait a long time for the shirt to process.
My day is not complete until there's a fun endeavors video! 😂
Awesome, thank you! 😀

Very nicely done! You are right, they are not perfect and that is what makes them so special! You can't make the same one twice. I love the colors.
Thank you so much! 😀 That's one reason why I love making geodes so much, they each turn out so unique!
I love it, I like the contrast in the light and dark colors.
Thank you! I really like the contrast too. 😀
love the colors you chose. I have a geode batching right now. Hope mine turns out as beautiful as yours.
Thank you! How exciting, I hope it turns out fantastic! 😀
Great job! Colors look great together. Very vibrant. And thank you for your tutorials, they are so helpful. ❤
Thank you so much! 😊
Best geode ever
Thank you so much, I really love the way it turned out! 😀

Thank you so much! 😀 Thank you for the stone suggestions. I made a Crazy Lace agate recently and that one was a lot of fun too.

@@FunEndeavors Well, You have inspired me so when it warms up I'll do that. You shirts are SO Beautiful!

Where did you get your sinew puller? I need a nice one for Christmas!
