- It was fun to re visit this tie-dye design, about 5 years ago I did this on a tee shirt and planned to do more and then life happened.... anyways, here is a twist on the RonStar tie-dye design with results at the end. And this was Ice Dyed.
I have lots of how to videos to watch about how to do tie-dye, some tips and tricks on tie-dye and some reveal videos where I open a tie-dye after rinsing it so be sure to take a look around.
I am still learning how to fully use TH-cam, so I will be making changes as I learn, Thank you for your patience.
Also you may see some other videos from my life of magic and wonder, but I will try to keep non tie-dye videos to a minimum,
If you would like to see more of my completed work here, you can check out many albums here:

One more note, I am learning about Live Video Streaming on TH-cam so I hope to start doing those soon and at some point I will set a day of the week for a regular live video stream where you can ask me questions while I work. #MrTieDye #HowToTieDye #RonStar An easy way to show support or appreciation for my channel ...

You are a such a valuable resource to the tie dye community. Thank you! 😬✌🏻
Than you and You are so welcome!
This turned out absolutely gorgeous! I'm definitely going to try your pattern. Thank you for sharing it❤
7:46 I love it when you explain what shape the fold is creating. I have a hard time wrapping my brain around what the folds and ties are creating. I hope one day to have a Eureka! moment. Thank you sooo much 🌼
Glad it was helpful ... I try to share as much information as I can while I am tying and dyeing .... sometimes the why's of something can make all the difference ✌🏻
How……how did those colors come out! Amazing! 💖
thank you and the washed and dried results are at the very end of the video 😉✌🏻
@@MrTieDye 😁 I always watch to the end!, I’m just amazed at how the colors split and how beautiful it all came out! Well done!
Thank you for another wonderful tutorial. The dress is gorgeous it looks like stained glass.
Thank you! Cheers!
I'm so dyslexic when it comes to following directional directions. Watching this over and over. Which is why I've made a Note to Self: At about 4:20 the tieing begins.
Thank you so much for this instruction. I appreciate the information about color and also how to shape and direct points!
you are welcome ... I am glad to be of help to you
I feel you I'm adhd and Dyslexic my best way of learning is watching
Very pretty dress Carl.
Thank you kindly
I have watched so many of your videos, and this is my favorite for results. That fabric is so rich when you are done with it. Bravo! Please keep teaching. You have so much to offer.
Thank you and yes I plan to keep dong this as long as there are people interested and I can keep my bills paid :-)
Gorgeous!
thank you 🙏
Thank you for your time and energy you have given us!* You are amazing!*
You are welcome, I am happy to be able to help so many people around the World
Gorgeous, love you brother
Thank you so much 😀
wow! that dress is gorgeous and amazing. I so want all my clothes to look like that. isn't it amazing the most beauty comes from a hand dyed process? beautiful work.
Thank you so much! and yes I love hand dyed items as they are each unique.
So I made a variation of this...I’d love love to attach a pic but I don’t know how. My friends say “I didn’t know you were so artistic”. I reply “I’m not-there are people on TH-cam who show me what to do.” You are my hero and I give you full credit!
I have not found a way to post a photo on youtube, but you can send it to my FB here : m.me/CarlMrTieDye
And I am glad to be of help and inspiration.... I will accept partial credit as you were still the one who tied and dyed it and it was your variation to :-) Thank you and you are welcome!!
Thanks so much for your detailed instructions!! It's all about the wrapping : ) I can't wait to try this and wish I could show you the results . . .
You are so welcome, and you can either tag me on FB, or send me a message here : m.me/CarlMrTieDye have fun and I wish you success!!
Can't wait to try this for my daughter's birthday party!
Wonderful! have fun and I wish you success!!
You are the reason why I started shopping at Dharma. They seem like nice people too.
You could do video on pricing and amounts of dye? When I bought, I bought a LOT because I was super scared about only getting a tiny bit of dye, but the amount in a 2oz can was surprisingly a lot.
I think that people might be scared of the investment, but I spent $200 cautiously buying a lot, because I was sure that I wouldn't get much and I can probably dye 500 shirts now, haha.
yes I can do a video like that.... I had not thought about it but you are right about a new person just starting out ... I will do some math and figure how much dye you can make from a jar just to give people a better idea ... thank you for the suggestion.
I was really curious about how much powder you get in a can. I asked the Dharma people and they told me that 3 cans should do 50 shirts. I don't know what their math is on ratios. When I add water to the dye, I wing it.
I also like that you can reuse the soda ash water. Seems like a little batch of water can go a long ways.
i literally gasped out loud when you showed the washed dress!
Awesome, I love that affect.... Julie does it all the time too :)
thans mr tie dye this is great. im like gaia below and hard to follow directions and also watching over and over .
you are welcome
You are very talented!
thank you... I love what I do
Amazing Masha Allah thank you so much
you are welcome
Nice job
thank you
I really like this one. Huh? Using bronze, new emerald & brown then a layer of power berry> dress ended up with lovely purple areas which doesn't seem possible using those colors
YarpwarSongs the power berry over the top is what did the people.
I love this fold! I have a long sleeve tunic I’d like to try. Would you be able to do another video that would show how to deal with long sleeves? Thank you!!!
awesome and yes I can do that, I have had a few questions about long sleeves so I will make a video showing what I do with them
MrTieDye Thank you so much!!!
you are welcome
love your videos. love you. namaste for all you do. but can you please post the reveal link in the processing link when done? thanks so much. I appreciate your efforts. got my dharma stuff. ready to go
thank you and I do not always do a reveal of the tie-dye,, but on all of my new videos (except the LIVE ones) I show the finished tee, tapestry or dress at the end, but this video does have a reveal video and a final pic at the end .... so I did not quite understand what you were referring to in your question.
Have fun with your new dharma dyes... awesome colors ahead for you!!
Curious regarding using liquid dyes for this technique - is it possible to freeze cubes of dye/water mix and lay those out to melt through? Any experience trying that method? Just brainstorming since I haven’t invested in dharma dyes yet but I’d like to give ice-dyeing a try with the liquids I have on hand if it’s possible.
Also thank you for all of your videos - huge inspirations in making shirts for my kids. They love them!
I have not done it, but I have heard of other dyers trying it.... only one way to find out if it will work for you :-) .... and you are welcome, I love to see others have success with this art
I tell Al of my friends about you- amazing stuff. Questions: if this was done on a shirt, is the shirt “centered” first or just folded in half? For the fold size - if on a shirt is the mark at 2 inches, or is this really a preference deal? Yes, I can experiment, but would like an expert’s opinion
Thank you so much... I Love seeing more people having fun and success with this art. as for doing this on a tee, I just fold in half... and then I just pleat the size that evens out rather than measure 2 inches or 3 inches, I fold back and forth and make it even, then flip over and fold the other half of the tee up.... then I do the Ronstar fold .... one thing to keep in mind... if the pleats are too narrow, then you will have a lot of them and then the Ronstar fold may be a little more difficult... I hope that made sense ✌🏻. have fun!! ✌🏻💚🥳🌈
If one were to use liquid dye, would one still use a 4th color to drizzle over the other 3 colors? Daughter wants this design, but has a kit...
that is totally optional ... sometimes it can just add a little something extra to the design ...
and if you have a One Step Kit, one thing that will help achieve better colors is to get everything folded up and ready to dye Before you mix the dyes... as soon as you add water to the bottles, the dyes are active and will give the best colors if used right away ....
one more thing, if you have soda ash, do a pre soak and it to will improve your colors, here is one more video where I discuss ways to improve your colors : th-cam.com/video/vXFh3CIMJGc/w-d-xo.html
That folding pattern, reminds me of when I was a kid making zig-zag rope made of gum rappers 😳🤡
kewl... I remember those
Hey love your video's. I was wondering if you remember with this dress how it went soaking through.
Did you add more dye and ice to the other side? or did you just add more ice to the first side?
Thanks.
Hi! You said a Ron star. I used to know Ron and this star. has something happened to Ron?
Yes, this is a design he created so it was named for him ... and yes, Ron passed from this World last year 🙏💚 ... He helped and Inspired many with this art ✌🏻. I did not know him personally, but we chatted online a few times
How would I go about doing this fold on a tshirt? To fold in half I tuck the sleeves into each other and can’t seem to figure out this fold when doing that
where do you source your dyes
I buy mine from dharma .... here is a link to them www.dharmatrading.com/dyes/dharma-fiber-reactive-procion-dyes.html?lnav=dyes.html
Where do you buy these cotton dresses? I'll buy products that say they're 100% cotton then I receive them and they're mostly polyester 🤦🏻♀️so frustrating!
I buy them from dharma... this is a play dress and it come in 3 lengths and 3 different sleeve styles ....... www.dharmatrading.com/clothing/women/mid-calf-play-dress-short-sleeve.html
Where did u get the dress
I bought it from Dharma, it is a Mid Calf Play Dress : www.dharmatrading.com/clothing/women/mid-calf-playdress-tank-top.html
May I ask where you find your tee shirt dresses? I'm having trouble finding 100% cotton that look nice. Yours are more tapered in the waistline. The ones I have purchased are baggy. The look like a long tee shirt with a small dart at the waist. I want to make myself one like this in my High School colors. I have my reunion in July.
By the way. This is an exquisite ice dye on this dress. Love your color palette!
I have had problems as well.... but this dress is from dharma .... this is a play dress and comes in 3 lengths, and tank, short and long sleeve ... www.dharmatrading.com/clothing/women/mid-calf-playdress-tank-top.html
MrTieDye thank you!
you are wecome
I was worried that the dye on the cardboard could transfer back if I reused it. I am guessing that you haven’t experienced this?
I have not had that happen... but if I was going to do something in lighter shades, I would probably use a clean piece of cardboard .... but lately, I have been using tinfoil more than cardboard 😉✌🏻🙏❤️
What is the soda ash wash?
it is what sets the dyes ..... th-cam.com/video/vD1MSB0sAY8/w-d-xo.html
Hi! Just doing Crowd sourcing. I already tied the shirt and then soaked it in soda ash. Is it okay if I rinse it in running water and let it dry before dyeing? Thank you for the response my very good friends!! Wooop.
you need to leave the soda sh in the shirt when you dye it as the soda ash is what causes the dye to bond with the cotton fabric ..... but it is best to at least squeeze out the excess soda ash and maybe let it dry and then dye
Alright. Thank you MrTieDye. Your masterpiece is really great.. I'd really wanted to give it a try of your designs.
you are welcome
You are awesome. Hehe
thank you ... I love what I do
What is string you use and where can I purchase it?
here is the sinew I buy ..... www.dixiegunworks.com/index/page/product/product_id/3340/category_id/571/category_chain/557,560,571/product_name/MI0310+Artificial+Sinew+-+70+lb.+8oz.+Spool+-+300+Yards
and I buy kite string from Ace Hardware ... here is how I use kite string and sinew ..... th-cam.com/video/nRKtNBZB5Qo/w-d-xo.html
Is sinew the only option to use here when it comes to tying the fabric? I havent been able to find sinew at any store ive been to and ordering online isnt an option for me right now. Ive used dental floss for a few other designs ive done but im not sure floss would be strong enough for this one. Any input/suggestions? Thank you ahead of time
I have used dental floss for some folding and tying of mandalas on tapestries, but I do not think it will be strong enough for this type fold on a dress, but you can certainly try it out.... it might be strong enough to hold things in place, just not for pulling as tight to get the lines left by the sinew ..... I have found small rolls of sinew in arts and craft stores like Michaels
@@MrTieDye thank you ((:
@@MrTieDye also would like to thank you for taking the time to respond! Ive made comments on more then a few peoples videos but you're the first whose ever taken your own time and replied! Thanks so much!
You are welcome 😃
Once the ice melts and you have checked the bottom and its soaked through...do you still let it batch for 48hrs? Or is it different with ice dying?
Yes I do.... these dyes need a little heat for the dyes to set up so I do not count the time it takes for the ice to melt, but that is my choice... other may do it differently
Hello mr.tiedye...would u pls tell me if i want to make in one time 10 to 20 teeshirt how can i do it ...thank you ...greeting from Thailand...my name is buratai
Hello Buratai .... you will have to tie each shirt by itself, but you can stack them side by side all into one big container and ice dye them together ... i hope that answers your question
I'm confused. There is no star shape... I like this better!
the star shape comes from folding in half and then doing the airplane folds ... you are basically folding the tee up in a circle... so then when you do the RonStar folding method, you get a star shape
BUT, for this, I folded across the dress and then did the RonStar Fold, giving me the pattern going down the tee instead of in a circle shape ✌🏻
@@MrTieDye thank you for the quick reply! I'm new and just took two hours folding a dress in half. 🤣 Sticky.
Question - do you start with a damp garment or dry with the ice dye?
when it is time to ice dye it, I like it to be dry, this one I folded dry since it was a mandala... but for one like the fan fold, it is easier to do when it is damp.... then I will let it sit to dry out before I add dye and ice ...... also, I am not an expert at ice dye so this is just how I do it
Thanks. Although you may not be an expert, you make pretty cool designs. And you are a lot more expert than I am ! LOL But I liked the effect of the ice dye. might need to try that.
you are welcome
Gorgeous!
thank you
