Upcycled Tie-Dye in Ottawa | Mixed Results
Give New Life to Your Cotton Garments
Do you have a favourite shirt, hoodie, or tote that’s faded or forgotten?
Mixed Results offers tie-dye upcycling in Ottawa, transforming well-loved cotton items into vibrant, wearable art. It’s a sustainable, creative way to extend the life of what you already own — and keep it uniquely yours.
What Can Be Upcycled?
- T-shirts & sweatshirts
- Hoodies & activewear
- Dresses & baby clothes
- Tote bags & canvas shoes
- Jeans, denim jackets, linens & pillowcases
- Cotton towels
Fabrics That Work Best
- 100% cotton
- Cotton blends (with minimal synthetics)
- Canvas & denim
- Rayon, hemp, bamboo, linen
- Tencel (Lyocell)
❌ Not suitable: polyester, nylon, acrylic — synthetics don’t absorb dye properly. Always check your label before sending.
