I
wanted to make a little something for my friend Tina's little boy, Sonny, who just turned 1! Irene and Olive have some that they both love to play with... I figured a little boys could enjoy them too (we made a few for Oz also)! I ordered the silk scarves from
Dharma Trading and after some searching found individual Kool-Aid packets at the Rainbow down the street. I managed to talk Matt into helping... I thought he might have fun with this project. We did some knotting, rubberband-ing and folding. Matt got very into it, dipping and mixing the colors... he even tried to do a t-shirt but we hadn't prepped it so the dye didn't take. I think we might have rinsed the scarves too long... we didn't really keep the vivid colors that we had started with. But it was a very simple fun project and we are already looking forward to doing it again. The smell of Kool-Aid really reminds you of being a kid!
