Hello! You have been an inspiration to me! Recently retired and I've always been an artsy person. My daughter has a hair salon named Deja Vu Hair Salon in Queensbury NY. She asked me to make some tye dye shirts to sell. Omg I love doing it. We just put my first 9 shirts on her shelf! I find myself watching you in the middle of the night 😂 Any who.... Thank you and keep on dying 😂!!!!!

That's how I do a Ron star fold. I never really knew if I was doing it right. Tie dye Ron is how I learned, when there were very few instructional videos on tie dyeing. Bless you Tie Dye Ron, wherever you are. I like the attribution tradition of tie dyeing.

i literally thought to myself while folding one the other day that it felt ron star-ish!
@BelladonnaDyesCo10 ай бұрын
I think we came up with that name because it looks like a “chevron” pattern. “Steph-ron” instead of chevron. I think Ron’s work requires more folding back and forth. I have made a Ron star so I’m not exactly sure. ❤️🌈
@scpatl4now2 жыл бұрын
As just an FYI...a Ronstar is an airplane fold type of Mandala where you take the airplane folds and you go back and forth at 90 degrees each time wrapping sinew in the same direction. You could call this a variation of a ronstar. I've made a couple but they can really be tedious unless you are using a BIG piece of fabric. Both of my hands were sore after doing them. It's a lot of work and a lot of wrestling with the fabric and a lot of pulling sinew.
@BelladonnaDyesCo2 жыл бұрын
Yeah, I agree. That fold over has to have a name of some sort. “Umm, do what I just did” isn’t going to cut it forever. 😉❤️🌈

Ronstar I think only applies to airplane fold, you do a sinew line then fold it 90 degrees and sinew again. This could be called Ronstar-esque maybe.

I don't know about ronstar but you are using a classic shibori folding technique. It starts with an accordion fold and then a flag fold. The difference is in how you bind it. I learned to bind it like this with sinew. But you can also clamp pieces of wood on it - anything that will give it a resist. White space. Also, shibori is traditionally dyed in one color - indigo but you dont have to. I learned to do it more than 25 years ago. My favorite shibori fold is Arashi and i like to leave the pleats.
@SkyGypsy4 ай бұрын
I found the ronstar and he calls it "RonStar with a Twist. So it's loosely based on Itajime Shibori. But his folds are sort of extended. With the Itajime you end up with a 'cube' of folded material. So I think saying the fold technique you used is 'RonStar With a Twist' you are giving him adequate credit. Peace out.

Hi Steph So, yes! I’ve heard it called a Ron-star-twist, perhaps because it is the way Ron did stars (except they had tapered radial pleats). I would have called it a twisted pleat. I love the repetitive randomness of this design - also used in a radial fashion on Courtenay’s famous Greek Theatre backdrop tapestries, I believe. I would tend to give him credit in the naming . . . Courtenay’s twisted pleats maybe - but Steph Ron works!

I love yours and other tie dye channels, but I seriously cringe every time I hear people recommend Amazon. Shirt quality is a big factor. I have been enjoying Bayside shirts for a while. My other go to shirts are Hanes. For summer designs I look for a tshirt that is less than 5oz fabric. I got some Gildan hoodies for the price but have not dyed them yet. Hanes ultimate hoodies are the ones I normally use. 4x-6x hoodies are hard to find in all cotton for less than $30. Ramble ramble ramble...
@BelladonnaDyesCo2 жыл бұрын
I would never buy shirts from Amazon. All my other tie dye gadgets come from there though. The links help us pay for our channel’s that’s why you hear us mention Amazon. Just simply clicking a link without buying anything gives a few cents. Sadly, nothing comes for free. I have to pay for all this somehow. I don’t like Hanes shirts at all. I find them to be way too small. I prefer Gildan & Port & Company. They are the best for me. I personally like to wear George from Walmart. They are the softest. For hoodies I use 100% cotton Port & Company. ❤️🌈
@djdialjockey62622 жыл бұрын
@@BelladonnaDyesCothanks for a reply. I've never really thought about sizing. I will have to do a comparison. I do know that my Gildan long sleeves all sold very quickly and I plan on getting more this fall. I haven't tried port and company, but the reviews seem very positive. When I need more short sleeves, I am going to try Gildan's new softer shirts; I think they are the 600 series but I'll have to check again. I like Dancing Robin shirts too, but I've never seen them on sale. I've only been doing tie dyes since last September so I am growing my preferences and appreciate your input.
