Buy sturdy containers for storing and transporting dyes. The number of dyes used is up to a teacher (start with basic colors).

Label each container with the color of dye.

Write in Permanent Marker the name of the color, on a dollar store white plastic table cloth, then place the jar next to the label.

Layout dyes on the table in order from LIGHT- DARK dyes.

Add bowl of vinegar and water wash both at the head and end of they table.
