Welcome to Discover the Poetry of Nature: Natural Dye Ribbon Workshop! Join me at Creative Space Brightwells for a hands-on experience where you'll learn to create beautiful ribbons using natural dyes. Let nature inspire your creativity as you explore the art of dyeing with natural materials. This in-person event will immerse you in the beauty of the natural world while you craft your own unique ribbons. Come discover the magic of natural dyeing with me!
Step into a world where petals, leaves and natural pigments become your palette. In this immersive workshop, you’ll learn to craft delicate, nature-imprinted ribbons.
We will commence with an introduction to mordants and fibres. Next, embrace a meditative ritual of selecting vibrant petals, fragrant leaves and earthy pigments, tuning in to the subtle hues each element offers.
Guided through the art of bundle dyeing, you’ll create unpredictable, intricate patterns on satin-soft ribbons.
By workshop’s end, you’ll take home:
- A curated collection of hand-dyed ribbons
- A basic understanding of mordanting methods and fibre preparation
- Confidence to recreate this fascinating dyeing practice on other textiles at home!
Join me for an afternoon of creativity, calm and colour and leave inspired to weave nature’s story into your fabrics.
