How can I tie dye my bedsheets without the color turning out pale?
Hi, I would like to tie dye a set of bed sheets with the usual colors in a cool pattern.. I have already tried to tie dye a shirt before, and the colors turned out very pale... so I'd like to know how can I get my bed sheets to look like the traditional tie dye, instead of pale.
Thank you!!

use twice the amount of dye recomended. I learned this the hard way.
I tie dyed my sheets almost a year ago and the color is still perfect. Use Jacquard brand dye you can usually find it at any craft store like blick or michael's. Follow the instructions and but leave the dye in for a couple days longer than it says to, the colors will be bright and won't fade. Good Luck!
i know this 1.....wrap up the bed sheets in ruber bands, then git w/e color die u want, put it in a bucket of bleach, and let it sit for a little while. then when its done, take it out, let it dry, and tah dah, u have tie died bed sheets.....it works w/ t-shirts also
