In TDHF Naturally, we share our journey of researching natural dyes and natural dye techniques. This guide by Maiwa is a fantastic place to start with their "Guide to Natural Dyes".
"Today, many craftspeople are rediscovering the joy of achieving colour through the use of renewable, non-toxic, natural sources" they say.
Sounds good to us.
Right now, we use artificial dyes at our workshops as they don't need to be heated to be activated, but we encourage everyone to go away and experiment with natural dyes at home. We also want to try and find suitable natural alternatives to use at our workshops to take the upcycling to the next environmentally friendly level. If you have some ideas on this, please get in touch hello@tiedyehighfive.com.
