Botanical Dye Kit

£45.00

A special craft kit that will make the perfect gift for yourself or a loved one who enjoys crafting. The process is beautiful and creates a calming experience that connects us to nature, creation, and botanical colour.

Each ingredient has been carefully chosen and measured exactly to achieve the well-balanced colour palette created from heritage dye plants. Using only a little steam from your kitchen, this will release the pigments and imbue them into your silk scarf.

The kit includes:

– A Pure Silk Habotai 55cm Square Scarf (pre-mordanted)
– Dried Marigolds
– Madder Root
– Brazilwood Powder
– Onion Skins
– Instruction Leaflet
– Link to guided images
– Length of String

Option to shift the colours from fiery reds to cerise pinks or golden yellows using PH modifiers that can be found in your kitchen cupboard.
