The above works are isolated sections from the larger, wearable pieces, which were executed today during craft time:
To make these "sharpie shirts", we stretched portions of t-shirts over plastic cups, using rubber bands to hold them in place. Then we put dots of color in a small circle with Sharpie permanent markers, and slowly dropped rubbing alcohol onto the center of each design with medicine droppers, causing the ink to spread in a sort of "tie dye" effect.
The directions were to do patterns of varying colors in a circle, so naturally Harrison immediately made non-circular shapes using all black instead. That's my boy!

How clever! Sounds a lot less messy than the regular old tie-dye method. Beautiful designs!
