Paper Towel Tie Dye


Today is a rainy day, so I have a fun indoor activity for you! We are going to be creating paper towel tie dye art. It is easy to do with just a few materials!


You will need:
  • paper towels
  • markers
  • rubber bands
  • a spray bottle with water (you can sprinkle water on the paper towel with your fingers if you don't have a spray bottle)
  • wax paper, newspaper, cardboard, or any material you can put underneath your paper towel while you spray it and as it dries.


There are SO many possibilities for the types of designs you can create. Have fun experimenting!
