Arts & Crafts, Friday

There weren't any popsicle sticks this week, but there were a variety of buckets, white t-shirts, and rubberbands. And yes, somehow glitter too. They had stopped asking why and just given in to the crafting STD.

"It's time to try out tie-dying! Which I want to say is a throw-back to a throw-back fashionwise, but I'm not the expert here," Tony said.

"Don't look at me," Steve laughed, holding his hands up. "I've been reliably told that I should not be allowed to pick out my own clothes."

Because plaid and pleated khakis were crimes, Steve.

"Today we're going to dye some shirts," he added. "We have a few we've acquired from Dean Skywalker's Wednesday games if you are looking to start with something with a color already--" or to have some therapy via destroying those shirts, "--but tie dye works best on white."

"You use the rubberbands to create spots where the dye doesn't reach by twisting up the fabric and cinching it to create patterns. There are also gloves because no one needs to leave here with bright pink hands," Tony said quickly. "Please use the gloves."

Steve ruefully held up his blue-tinged fingers. "Please," he echoed. "Now pick out your shirts and then I'll demonstrate some tying techniques."

And hopefully your shirts won't turn out weird and brown.
