What I like to do is just grab a fistful of the shirt and then tie the rubber band around it. You should probably tie the shirt with rubber bands in 3 or 4 places for better results.

How do you tie-dye clothing?

Tie-dye uses fiber-reactive dyes, where the color sort of fuses with the actual fiber of the material (why almost all tie-dye you see is on cotton, natural fibers play nice with dye!) This means that if your tie-dyed shirt is already died, and has been heat set -- this is the most important step in dyeing, usually tie-dyed stuff is thrown for a cycle round the drying machine, otherwise it can be ironed -- then you wash normally. Just wash the shirt according to general laundry rules, in cold water, and you'll be fine. If you didn't dye the shirt yourself and are not sure what sort of dye was used, experiment with soaking the shirt or running hot water over it and seeing if the color comes away. If it does, try ironing the shirt with a press cloth (a piece of scrap fabric, usually muslin or white cotton) between the iron and the garment, and the garment and ironing board (otherwise you'll have a lovely tie-dyed ironing board cover!) then putting it in the dryer for a cycle all alone. Hopefully that will heat set the dye if that step was ignored by the dyer. The whole point of dying any article of clothing, espeically with fiber reactive dye, is to fundamentally change the material, so as long as you are careful washing a tie-dyed shirt should not hurt it.

You put a rubber band on your cats wrist will it live?

If the rubber band wasn't tight, the cat likely simply kicked it off when it became annoying. If the rubber band was tight, the cat is likely to chew through it as soon as it becomes annoying. However, if the cat left the rubber band alone, and it was tight enough to cut off blood flow, eventually the rubber band would cause all the tissues (including the entire paw) below the rubber band to die and fall off. Depending upon the cat's overall health and exactly how the necrosis of the paw occurs, this could result in fatal blood poisoning. I wouldn't suggest doing this to your cat - it's quite painful - but it's likely the cat would take care of the problem before it became life threatening.

What is a tie die party?

Tie dye is fun! It is when you take a shirt or other article of clothing and tie it with rubber bands and then dye it by dipping it in different colors for different parts of the shirt. It creates a cool design using colors, kind of like a spiral effect on the shirt. It's best to use a white or other light-colored shirt. Tee-shirts work great. A tie dye party is when someone has a party where everyone brings a shirt to dye, and the entire process of tying and then dying the shirts are done together in a party atmosphere. If it's a kids' party, the adults will usually supervise and help out. If it's an adults' party, everyone will just enjoy getting together to make the cool shirts.
