All workshops at our Head Quarter are in tied connection with our garden. We will pick, explore and choose our dye material from fresh flowers , our food waste items ( we have used for the workshop-lunch bites) or preserved dried dye plants. The workshop will be a collective experience through the crafts of natural dyeing. I will share its benefits in comparison to modern dyes and share the ancient history of it.
You will learn to identify dye materials, prepare your textile for dyes, extract dyeing pigments from your chosen plants and finally dye your fabric.
I decided to define my workshops in four core approaches
L I V E - E X P L O R E - C O M M U N I C A T E - S H A R E . Each workshop can be booked by itself or also build up each other. Every course holds individual lessons and experiences.
