So let's say I ethically came into possession of thirty-four high-end tie-dye kits. Other than setting up a stall at a craft fair for kids to make their own shirts, what else should I do with them? Each kit promises 32 or 86 uses.

How

Dumpster diving.

The Boy would be jelly

Michaels just threw out all their boxes because a bottle leaked over the shipment, from what I saw. I also yoinked a brand new CriCut.

Previous hauls from this same store include $800 Christmas trees, hundreds of fake flowers, dozens of craft kits, and a new deluxe storage cart.

looks up bulk prices for white tees

A CRICUT hell damn yeah you scored

Tentessee : There were three, but two were out of the box and probably not worth salvaging. I'm going to sell this one on Marketplace. JUST CALL ME TRASH QUEEN.

OHHHH HOLY SHIT NICE ON THE CRICUT

Good tie-dyes will take rinsing with soda ash, soaking and at least 6 hours of resting after dye is applied in buckets

I got one for my mom for christmas, they're fantastic. ...and you should get a good price for it because of that lmao

Things I learned as the boy began his journey into selling shirts

wo ai ni ★ : If he has any tips, I'm all ears. I'm thinking of pumping through this bounty with some DIY stations at local craft fairs and community events. Kids are entertained for ten minutes, I make $5 a shirt.

Kids would need to be able to take shirts home bagged, they would need to sit unmolested for 6+ hours ... Rinsing may depend on dye

for tie dye this channel also might be worth looking at a little?

especially if you're doing stuff with/for kids

Might be worth dying shirts yourself and then having kids like... write their name on it or something?

but still, nice score

new Cricut is great

The Boy concurred, in bags 6 hours after dyeing. Lots of rubber gloves. Label colors and bags. Most dyes need setting - that is, an actual product TO set them after all this
