Botanical Bundle Dye Workshop

Sat Apr 13, 2024 | 2-4p

h2hotel’s Green Room

Join us at h2hotel for a hands-on workshop where you'll explore the art of botanical bundle dyeing!

Instructed by the talented Lisa Rogers, owner of SlowDigz, this two-hour session will immerse you in the world of natural dyes. Lisa’s background as a science and garden educator enhances this workshop with practical and creative insights.
Participants will learn the fundamentals of natural dyeing, including:
  • Prepare fabrics from scouring to mordanting
  • Modifying colors using pH and iron
  • Discovering natural dyes from everyday ingredients like kitchen scraps and botanicals
The workshop will culminate with each guest creating their own bundle-dyed silk neckerchief/bandana using dried botanicals and cochineal. A selection of wines and light bites will be served during the event – the perfect accompaniment to an afternoon of artistic exploration.

$80 per person Included in the Workshop Fee:
  • All necessary materials for dyeing your silk piece
  • Personal instruction by Lisa Rogers
  • A selection of wine and lite bites
