Heading out into the yard and searching for the perfect rocks to paint is already an exciting adventure ... double the fun with Tulip Paints and/or Markers!

Tie dye is the perfect summer activity for all ages! From the process of making your own tie-dye creation to wearing it afterward, it's all so much fun! Tulip One-Step Dyes are nontoxic and already include soda ash in the dyes, so the kids can just dampen their shirts and get right to making some tie-dye magic. Looking for tie-dye ideas? The kits come with an inspiration guide, but you can also check out this awesome tie-dye techniques section on TieDyeYourSummer.com for more ideas.
You know you can use Tulip Dimensional Fabric Paints to decorate fabrics, but did you know you can also use them to make colorful jewelry? Fun, stackable bracelets, necklaces, rings ... have the kids get creative! They can make dimensional jewelry in all shapes and sizes, for themselves AND as fun matching gifts for friends.
Some of us still like to wear socks in the summertime ... and for those of us who do, non-slip socks are the way to go! Get out socks the kids already have and let them put their imaginations to work creating words and designs on the feet with Tulip Dimensional Paint. Once dry, the paint will act as gripping to help minimize slips - in a super fun way!
