For all tie-dyeing projects, we suggest you have the following supplies on hand:
Rubber gloves
Rubber bands, string, or 2-inch wide strips of cloth
Plastic to cover your work surface - you can split open a large heavy trash bag

About 2 gallons very hot water (at least 140ºF/60ºC) for each color
Long-handle stainless steel spoon
Scissors
Laundry detergent
Clean towel that you won't mind wrapping around dyed items
Paper towels and/or sponges
Cleanser or bleach for cleaning up
