Natural Dying With Flowers

  • Foragers Farms 3533 Rowe Road Cobourg, ON, K9A 4J7 Canada (map)

This is a fun opportunity to work with natural dye flowers such as marigold, purple pincushion, dyers’ coreopsis, and sulphur cosmos to create a colourful bundle-dyed project. These flowers are a safe and colour-popping alternative to chemical dyes. We will go over fabric preparation and dye technique to ensure you get colour-fast results from your dye project. We will also share tips and tricks for growing, harvesting, and drying your own flowers for natural dyeing at home. Participants will create a dye project on linen using confetti of flowers in hues of orange and blue which they get to take home.
