I'm Violet. I like to make things myself. This here is my collection of crafts, diy, baked goods, etc that I want to try my hands at.
You can also check out my main blog Frosted Flower for a glimpse inside my head.

DIY Mess Free Sharpie Pen Tie Dye. My obsession: sharpie pens. I tie dyed when I was younger (I was in Brownies and 4-H) and it was messy and maybe we didn’t do it right, but we got lots of washed out looking purple shirts. I like this controlled approach to Tie Dying. And now that I got my cheap sharpies at buy.com (also cheap at Costco), I can try this. Tutorial from Sun Scholars (hey, I don’t look down on sites for kids! That means I can probably do it!) here. 

What you Need:
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
