Discover the magic of natural dyeing in this fun, hands-on workshop! Using flowers, leaves, onion skins, avocado pits, and more, you'll create a beautifully dyed silk scarf. Learn eco-friendly techniques like bundle dyeing and immersion baths, and explore the vibrant colors found in nature. We'll provide materials, including mordants, steaming equipment, brushes, gloves, and your own OLLI apron!. Optional: bring your own plant materials to experiment with! Wear clothes you don't mind getting messy. Come ready to play with nature's palette and leave with a unique, wearable work of art!
