When you introduce a typical piece of clothing made of cotton or linen to a colored dye, fiber reactive dyes attach to cellulose fibers using a covalent bond. The dye molecule actually becomes a part of the t-shirt cellulose molecule.
That being said this is a wonderful opportunity to mix science and creativity to create your own masterpiece. Please remember to bring a white t-shirt or piece of clothing and be prepared to go outside to work on our creations.
