Actual tutorial/steps for doing this yourself
1) Get shirts wet
2) Wring shirts out
3) Take your time to really neatly spiral/pleat your shirts
4) Bleach
- You can use about 50% bleach, 50% water
- Don’t let sit for too long or it will damage the shirt (maybe 5-15 minutes)
- Don’t forget both sides of your shirt if you want to dye both
5) Make a gallon of hydrogen peroxide water (1 cup hydrogen peroxide per gallon of water)
- It will neutralize the bleach
- Don’t untie your shirt if you plan to dye it after bleaching
- Let it sit for 20 minutes, then wring out as much water as you can

  • I think if you let Katelyn's sweatshirt and pants soak in some super diluted purple dye, they'd probably take on a cooler pink tone and get the cotton candy vibe you're going for! The pattern is super cute it's just a tiiiinny bit too warm. Awesome stream as always :)
  • If you really hate the bleached items afterwards you can always tie dye with color dyes over it and make it cool again.
  • @tbexter
    Katelyn panicing about making the chaotic shirt too chaotic with the hearts is so relatable 😂😅
  • I love how the community genuinely cares about you guys. Like “wipe down the chair. Evan got his bleach hands on them” that was so nice of chat
  • Please do another live stream of dying your least favorites. I think some of them could really come out winners. I think too that if Katelyn wanted, she could dye her whole meat outfit some sort of violet or blue, and the light vs. dark parts would still come out differently! I'd love to see how some Rit dye would change things!
  • Th joy when I se that you two uploaded an uncut craft project just as I was to sit down with my sculpting. Almost three continuous hours of the best noncommittal crafting "company"
  • @kellimshaver
    If you really want to mask off areas of the shirt, there's a special type of wax you can get that you melt and paint onto the shirt and it soaks into the fabric so the bleach/dye can't bleed into that area. Then the wax comes out in the washing machine. I forget what type it is, but I've used it before.
  • @bumbobaggins
    Katelyn has the ability to be unintentionally chaotic and the inability to be intentionally chaotic.
  • @Em_biguous
    I think another possible technique that could look really cool is using stamps, like the sponge ones. And Katelyn’s dot pattern could maybe be done with those big sponge daub things
  • @madonna4874
    Evan's the 2nd flame shirt is ♨️ Katelyn's track suit pattern is cute, it's the color that is giving it a meaty vibe
  • @hunterc1168
    Absolutely down for a tie die correction stream! Love the uncuts :)
  • @Trixalla
    I think Katelyn’s Ham Jogging ( Hogging?) Suit could be salvaged with a more blue based pink tie dye on top! Still, the journey to become Joob’s favourite snack is commendable
  • Even and Katelyn, next time try using a bleach pen so you can actually draw out designs and Clorox gel toilet cleaner works great too if you want details and control. Another YouTuber @superraedizzle did this and got a pretty amazing result. I’d love to see y’all do another livestream and try again!
  • You guys would have fun with batik wax resist! Also recommend checking out making your own indigo and shibori dyeing! I had a lot of fun in college for Textile & Apparel Design, print & dye classes were always the most fun!
  • I would totally watch a livestream where they save their failed tie dyes!!!
  • @_jeanique
    I actually think the flames shirt is really good. The bottom kind of looks like a forest and the top part looks like the tops of the trees. They’re not flames but they make a good forest :)
  • Bleach will eventually eat away at the sprayer, depending on how long you guys had it in that bottle it may have started to and that's why it wouldn't spray lightly. At my job we go through like 10 spray bottles a month cause of bleach destroying them 😂
  • Evan is so good at just letting go and going with the flow of their creations.
