Learn to eco-dye using local fresh eucalyptus leaves. Join us to naturally dye a one-of-a-kind silk scarf (14” x 72”) or 2 silk project bags (6 ½” x 15”). You’ll apply the leaves to your textiles, place them in the dye bath and learn about the process. While we’re waiting for the textiles to dye, we’ll talk about natural dyeing with other plants and learn to make string bracelets with naturally dyed cotton and a wooden bead. There may be a little free time to explore the vendors. After they’ve “cooked” we’ll remove the scarves from the bath and have the big reveal!
