I tried the snow dying technique because Vermont still has so much snow !

Basically, you wash your clothes and dry them (I used a special laundry detergent and fabric softener, but anything will do)

Then you crinkle them up and hold it with a rubber band! Leave them out on a screen over the tub (or a bucket, so they can drain.)

Then you sprinkle soda ash on them to help them absorb the dye for permanence.

Make sure to be wearing a cute tie-dye outfit while you do this so you have the proper vibrations.

Dig up some clean snow !

Sprinkle dye in any design you want over the snow.. make sure to cover it all, and take into consideration how colors will mix.

Avoid getting dye on your toes !!

Wait 24 h for the dye to sink in and the snow to melt.

Then rinse with cold water
