Tie dye with sharpies

So, you've seen this before, but I have to say this was fun!

The girls in the middle of the project. Too focused to look up.. 


I grabbed the rubbing alcohol, a couple of small medicine containers (so they could refill their own droppers), droppers, paper cups, t-shirts and sharpie pens.


We positioned the paper cup under the shirt. Secured it with a rubber band. Then the girls made dots and lines and 'fancy designs' - all melted and colored fabulously.


Loved the rainbow, one of my favorite ones. Then we used the dropper to suck up some alcohol and carefully drop it on to the shirt

It spreads pretty rapidly. I thought we should have used different sized cups next time
