Talk to the ladies in a fabric store. I think you need a special kind of paints; not food coloring. Good luck and have fun!

buy tie dye. food coloring will wash out. its for food and liquids. it will not work on fabrics. it will bleed through the shirt. at hobby lobby michaels joannes or any other craft store they will probably have cheap tie tye. if you cant buy any talk to some one at a craft store or any other crfty person you know. they might be able to give you an answer or another suggestion. if none of these work, just go to walmart or any toehr cheap store and buy a tie dye shirt. GOOD LUCK!
