Give Your Outdated T-Shirts a Fresh Update With These Foolproof Tie-Dye Kits

Tie-dye is one of the biggest trends taking over fashion at the moment, and while there are plenty of ‘90s-inspired styles to choose from, making your own tie-dyed apparel is so much more fun than purchasing a design already emblazoned with a rainbow-hued pattern. There is no shortage of ways to personalize and customize your tie-dye pattern when you take the DIY route—from choosing your own colors to experiment with, to switching up your method while you’re in the process to create a bespoke look.

If you’ve grown bored with your favorite old tee-shirt, mini dress, or sweatpants, why not take to this fun activity to give your old apparel a fresh and perfectly on-trend update? And, besides giving your old wardrobe staples a makeover, it’s also just a fun, crafty project to take on to pass your time spent at home. Tie-dying can take a bit of practice (along with a bit of trial and error) to master, but fortunately, there are plenty of ready-made kits that come with just about everything you need to get the look right. Below, we’ve rounded up a few of our favorite (and totally foolproof) kits to help you get started.
