WORKSHOP DYEING WITH FLOWERS - 15 MAR
NATURAL TEXTILE DYEING Step by step, we’ll explore the gentle art of natural dyeing. You’ll learn how to (pre)treat fabrics for rich, lasting color and create vibrant prints with dried flowers and leaves. Together, we’ll discover which plants yield which shades, how to make the most of natural pigments, and simple techniques to shift and layer colors. BUNDLE DYEING & ECO-PRINTING Bundle dyeing uses flowers, leaves, and other natural materials to create abstract patterns on fabric. Eco-printing captures the true imprint and colors of plants, turning your fabric into a living botanical canvas. In this workshop, you’ll experiment with both techniques, discovering surprising effects while connecting with the natural world through your hands and creativity. By the end, you’ll take home your own naturally printed bandana or scarf, and a handmade wall hanging from 100% organic cotton.
