tie dye

Yesterday Matty and I along with Liberty went to Centro to escape from this....
The dust storm that suffocated Sydney and plenty of NSW yesterday!! This is a photo of the roof of my silver car!
So, whilst we were shopping ~to escape the dust~ I bought Liberty some much needed bigger singlets! I actually bought them in a size 2 so she'll be able to grow into them! They only had white ones which Matt and I thought were a bit boring so we went to the sewing section and they had about 3 colours of dye to choose from, so we chose purple!
When Libby went down for her nap, I did the dyeing...
Here she is wearing one of the singlets (whilst also doing some crazy acrobatic stunt - haha)

Im happy with the results of my first time tie dying singlets for Lib! It was good fun to do too!!!
Now, to go clean the kitchen from orange dust and purple dye! hahaha

Wow, I'd heard about the dust storm but couldn't visualize it. Amazing. What an eerie mess!

You did a great job on Libby's singlets. That's another Aussie term I'm not familiar with. I'd call it a T-shirt. Is the name the same for grown up sizes?

Totally cute Jess! You girls are such groovers.
P.S. I tried your idea of the plastic cup with holes in the bath & he totally loved it. But then it completely backfired when he decided it was just way more fun to watch mum do it over & over & to scream the house down if I stopped.
