Salt (a good handful in the washing machine) helps to set the dye in blue jeans. I wonder if it would work for cotton T-shirts?

This looks like our craft project of the week! Try washing in cold water with a cup,of salt, that helps set the color too.

Awesomeness! We love doing our t-shirts in the summer! Quick question: What % was your rubbing alcohol?

Thanks in advance for your help 🙂

In reply to Brynn. Before washing, put them in the dryer on HIGH HEAT for at least 1 hour. (Make sure the alcohol has completely dried before doing this, as you don't want your house to explode.) This will help SET the dye and will make the colors last longer.

In reply to Brynn. Hi Brynn, Yes the color does fade with washing. Perhaps hand washing will help it last?
