The Dye Shop

I'm done. It's over. Ouch, my hands hurt!!

Today was the final day for VBS here. I ran the dye shop in Bethlahem Village. All in all it was a really good time. My hands are now purplish red, and the hurt even to type right now, but it was worth it. The kids loved tieing ropes around their bags and shirts before the placed them into the dye bath (no rubberbands in Biblical times!) but trying to untie them with gloves (I know also not Biblical times, but I was trying to save my hands!) just didn't work. Every knot would make a hole in the gloves. So now I have dyed hands. But since I was running the shop I got to dye my shirts and a pair of socks to match!!

Now to find a dye remover for my hands... After a nice long soak for them.... that sounds good...
