About

My name is Allison, and I’m the tie-dye artist and sole creator behind Ride Me Dyes in Crested Butte, Colorado. I create one-of-a-kind pieces using ice and snow, and I especially love when one of my dyes finds its match. Every time I’m dyeing, I know I’m making something for someone — I just don’t know who yet. My work truly comes to life when it’s worn.

While my process falls under the umbrella of tie-dye, I specialize in ice and snow dyeing. I use professional-grade fiber reactive dyes combined with melting ice or snow. As the ice melts, the powdered dyes bloom and blend on the fabric, creating unique color splits and visual textures. I often place my dyes on an incline, letting gravity guide the flow and enhance the organic movement of the colors. This technique gives each piece the fluidity and energy that makes ice dyeing so special.

Thank you for stopping by my shop and checking out my work — I truly love making these pieces and hope you find something that speaks to you. If you have any questions or just want to connect, I’d love to hear from you.

Until the next melt, 
Allison
