quick little stamp i did this morning :)

[Cicada Daze Crafts @CicadaDazeCo]

my hands are blue and purple now though lol. yes yes i know i should just wear the gloves the whole time but it seems like a waste when ive been an artist my whole life and have always had stained hands. it’s not toxic so who cares! 😊 i’d rather save the gloves for resin work

[Cicada Daze Crafts @CicadaDazeCo]

the second half of the shirts are in the wash now! they look SO COOL, way cooler than the first three imo. blues, purples, and a little magenta fuchsia action going on in there too hehe. excited!

@tinykreideprinz i hope you’ll be able to get one eventually!! 💖

[Cicada Daze Crafts @CicadaDazeCo]

first two shirt attempts which are waiting for their final wash in a week!
i obviously still have a lot to learn but im having fun :) i do not own the professional materials (like that huge canvas press thing) but i dont for my jewelry either so 🤷‍♀️ we make do!

[Cicada Daze Crafts @CicadaDazeCo]

also for transparency: these 6 shirts were bought new, NOT secondhand. i wanted to buy the best shirts i could for learning the tie dye method so id know if it was the fabric or my own error. my plan is to upcycle secondhand clothing 90% or more of the time going forward!

[Cicada Daze Crafts @CicadaDazeCo]

i have 3 more shirts soaking overnight and will be dyed tomorrow 😎 blues and purples! plus i’ll probably have pics of the stamped shirts to share tomorrow but they won’t be up for sale for a week as they have to finish curing + one final wash!

@JudyWhitton @Etsy oh i REALLY love this one, looks like caramel or coffee!!!

[Cicada Daze Crafts @CicadaDazeCo]

@tinykreideprinz i agree! 😊

[Cicada Daze Crafts @CicadaDazeCo]

wow, the colors came out so vibrant! pardon my messy workspace hehe
i’m going to stamp at least one of these with my cicada stamp and then they have to wait a week to set/cure!

new linocut stamp!

[Cicada Daze Crafts @CicadaDazeCo]

they are yellow and 2 greens on a white base :)

[Cicada Daze Crafts @CicadaDazeCo]

the shirts are rinsed and are now in the wash! they’re looking cool, i’m excited!
i only used 3 colors because each color bottle only lasts a short amount of time once mixed, and i didn’t want to waste any if i messed up. i’ll experiment with rainbowy stuff eventually!

[Cicada Daze Crafts @CicadaDazeCo]

i have my first three attempts at tie dying shirts currently dying in the tub 🙂 my plan is to uniquely tie dye shirts, stamp them with my own linocut designs, and have them available on my etsy!
