I made this Tie and Dye cotton dupatta. It can be adorned using mirrors or lace embroidery etc. I used Fevicryl Acrylic Colours.

how to do it yourself

STEP 1:-

Wash the new cotton or voile white dupatta fabric.
I crumpled the dupatta and after folding it in half lengthwise tied it with thread keeping some distance.

STEP 2:-

I used more than one color.

STEP 3:-

In a bowl ,I took some water dipped a thick brush in water then in color.
You can dilute Fevicryl Acrylic Colours by adding little water. With brush, start coloring with your desired colour scheme.

STEP 4:-

Let it dry completely. Untie the threads and open it up.
Iron it when it is completely dry.
The color does not bleed. Ironing will fix the color.

you will need

Fevicryl Sunflower Kit, Fine Art Brush, Cotton/Voile fabric for dupatta, Bowl, Thread or rubber bands and plastic sheet
