INDEPENDENCE TIE DYE
Advertisement
Summer is the perfect time for red, white, and blue tie dye projects! Learning how to tie dye can be a little messy, but really fun and the end result is never wrong. The process involves tying up different parts of fabric so the dye penetrates unevenly, giving a multitude of effects. You can combine tiedye with fabric paint and other mediums to create one-of-akind pieces for your wardrobe. Bring your white cotton shirts, bandanas, pants, or headbands!
1920S FLAPPER HEADWARE
Create your own headware for the Great Gatsby Dinner, using feathers, ribbons, beads, and more! Don’t forget to catch the virtual lecture from the Hillwood Estate Museum for inspiration and deeper understanding of fashion and its historical context in the 1920s.
BUTTON BOWL CREATIONS
Use old buttons and put them to good use, creating a unique and surprisingly sophisticated center piece. It all starts by blowing up a balloon to your desired bowl size and covering it with a brush of paint. Let the fun start!
