Tulip® Custom Dye Color Kit wins the “General Crafts” and “Best of Show” Innovation Awards
01.30.09
Fresno, Calif. (Jan 30, 2009) Introduced at the Craft & Hobby Association (CHA) Winter 2009 tradeshow in Anaheim, Calif., January 25 through January 28, the Tulip® Custom Dye Color Kit™ blew away the judges (CHA staff, consultants, members of the press and retailers) to win two of the most coveted awards – Most Innovative Product in “General Crafts” and “Best of Show”.
 Even the most extreme color enthusiast will be blown away by the 150 color combinations that the Tulip® Custom Dye Color Kit™ makes possible!
Beginning with just four base permanent fabric dye colors, any color-loving consumer can follow the easy-to-read recipe guide to mix 150 custom dye colors, including Sprout, Fish Bowl, Pixie and Happy Hour, just to name a few. The fun doesn’t end when the base colors are gone…the dye storage containers can be refilled with Tulip® Permanent Fabric Dye™ and the custom creation can begin again.
“We knew entering the CHA tradeshow that this would become the most innovative new fabric dye product on the market,” said Valerie Marderosian, Vice President of Sales & Marketing. “We are very excited to launch a product that has already excited so many retailers, designers and members of the media. The Tulip® Custom Dye Color Kit™ is a direct result of spotting two trends: extreme customization, which is possibly the most significant consumer trend today; and tie-dye, the most prevalent trend in fashion apparel, with no signs of slowing through Winter 2010.”
The kit includes four base color permanent fabric dyes (black, yellow, turquoise and fuchsia), how-to color recipe guide with project ideas, storage containers and measuring tools.
The Tulip® Custom Dye Color Kit™ will be available at retail in Summer 2009.
