This is directly copy and pasted from the Steve Spangler website but I find that I really need to save this - it's a gem! I do paper chromatography with my students and have made beautiful patterns with the Sunday School kids for cards but this really is a good spin on an already cool lab activity!
Sharpie Pen Science A tie dye technique without the mess, using Sharpie Markers!
It's a brand new tie dye technique without the mess... and the results are amazing! This activity combines chemistry and art to create a designer t-shirt that is sure to get lots of attention whenever you wear it.
Materials
Pre-washed white t-shirt
Sharpie® Permanent Markers (Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple)
Plastic Cup
Rubber Band
Rubbing Alcohol (70% from the Drug Store)
Dropper Bottle or medicine dropper
