What is ice dyeing?
Ice dyeing is a technique in tie dye.
The dye is used in it's powdered form. Ice cubes are placed either on top of or under the dye., as the ice melts, it mixes with the dye powder and flows through and into the fabric.
This creates a water colour, marbled effect. It's a much softer result than the more used liquid tie dye technique.
Ice dyeing creates a unique look that can rarely be replicated. That's what makes it so special.

Will my product look exactly the same as in the photo?
I cannot replicate anything exactly. Your item will be very similar, but unique in its own right.
I do my best to replicate colours and designs where asked, however I have no control over
how the ice melts and where the dye runs. This is what makes my items unique and
individual works of art.
No returns will be given in these circumstances.

What do you mean when you say you Up-Cycle?
Up-cycling takes pre-loved fabric and gives it new life. I add colour and design to these sheets which creates something of more beauty than its original purpose. Up-cycling is of great benefit to our environment as it saves this fabric from going to waste & landfill.
Product care.
Wash all items in cold water with similar colours.

What type of Dye do you use?
I use professional quality Procion Fibre Reactive Dyes.
This is the dye you've seen on tie-dyes on the street, at markets, festivals and concerts - the
colours are brilliant and permanent. They don't fade, even after repeated washings. They
don't wear off, therefore are safe on infant clothing and clothing for chemically sensitive
people.
