Tie-Dying at Just Bead It for GUCU!

This week the girls at Just Bead It were busy tie dying GUCU t-shirts for Saturday. Volunteers who pre-registered for the event would be receiving these Free Limited Edition t-shirts in celebration of LBI BA's 1st Annual GUCU.

Step 1: Rubber band t-shirts...all 300 of them! Actually went pretty fast. We had fun figuring out different ways to rubber band them to make different tie dying effects.


Step 2: Dying the t-shirts in Green and Blue dye. We made sure to wear gloves so our hands didn't get dyed...except for Stacey...she went for the "green look" and proud of it!























Step 3: Let t-shirts soak in the dye overnight. We ended up dying half the t-shirts on Tuesday and the other half on Wednesday because we were running out of room!















Step 4: Rinse out t-shirts and take home to dry.
This way our volunteers don't turn green or blue on Saturday!


Step 5: The Finished Product!
