Community Natural Dye Bath

Let’s gather in community to create a dye bath and give fresh life to the textiles we already love. We will be working with MADDER ROOT this month.

What to Bring: One or two items for the dye pot! We encourage using what you already have—something thrifted, worn, or well-loved. Please note, we are limiting the number of items to 2, per person. If you are unsure, feel free to bring them along and we can help you when you arrive. As we grow and have more dye pots available, we will allow for more items. :)

This time we ask you to only bring plant based-fibres (cellulose) such cottons, linens, hemp, ramie etc. Please make sure all items are washed and clean.

Cost:

small items (example: napkin, bandana, bra, socks, etc.) - $12 per item

medium (example: shirt, small towel, shorts) - $15 per item

**there will be some blank items available for puchase such as bandanas, linen napkins, etc. **

Please add up you total in the check-out for the donation. For example two small items, would be a total of $24.

What’s Included:– A guided natural dyeing experience–All dye materials and tools provided ! Connecting with community ! If you would like to learn more about natural dyeing before you come, check out this resource.
