  1. Custom T-Shirt Printing Process With Natural Dyes

  2. Natural fabric dyes can bring the best out of your custom t-shirt printing project. • Clothes printed with natural dyes not only add a different feel to the fabric of your customized t-shirts but provide higher UV absorption. • A naturally-dyed custom t-shirt can fully protect your skin from harmful sun rays and even look cooler in style.

  3. Finalizing Print Designs & Colors • Start with selecting the color palette. • Finalize the main solid colour of your t-shirt. • Finalize a unique designing pattern.

  4. 2. Selecting The Right Dye Plants Following factors need to be taken care of before you select the dye plant: • Print design complexities • Printed areas • Color palette • Fabric quality • Project budget

  5. For a vibrant red color, madder root plants can be used to extract natural dyes. • Avocado pits can be selected for light pink color prints. • Most of these dye plants are associated with one primary color, which is why you need to select the plant relevant to the solid color finalized in the first stage of this process. • You also need to take care that the dye plants can sustain the t-shirt printing techniques which require overdyeing or overnight dye baths.

  6. 3. Organizing Your Dyes & Fabric Materials • Some natural dyes go well with certain fabrics. For example, cotton works well with high-fiber natural dyes. You also need to add mordant to the dyes. • The mordant is a deciding factor that gets you the desired color on your custom t-shirt. • For most projects, salt or aloe vera is used as an effective mordant for naturally dyeing the canvas of custom t-shirts.

  7. 4. Readying The Final Product: These simple steps can be followed to make your final product of custom t-shirts printed with natural dyes: 1. Use a ratio of half a cup of salt for 6 cups of water and keep your t-shirt soaked in this warm salty water for a whole night. 2. The following morning, rinse it and dry it as much as possible.

  8. 3. Fill hot water in a pot and keep enough space available for comfortable resting of t-shirt fabric (the pot must not overflow). 4. Add your chosen dye (add more volume of dyes if you need vibrant shades of colors). 5. Boil the water and allow it to sit till the desired color appears. 6. Remove the fabric and let it dry.

  9. Tips: • If you want to over dye some specific parts of the design, add more salt on the specified surface of fabrics. • After drying up the t-shirts, rinse them in cold water and wash them separately by strictly using only a small amount of a gentle detergent.
