Since 2020 I mostly offer private classes. If you want to learn with me, please choose the number of participants and book via this page. The studio capacity for private workshops is 1-5 people. After booking, write me an email to discuss the date, I am available most weekends and evenings.
The next scheduled event is on November 23rd, 11 am.
You can book single tickets via the drop-down. The class will only take place with a minimum of 5 participants.
Did you know that you can keep beautiful plant colors in cloth? Just by making a simple bundle, you can magically stop the time for the blooms, roots, and leaves.
You will learn which local plants can be used to get pigments from and how to achieve different visual effects with your bundle. If you are interested in how non-toxic, natural dyes can be applied to the fabric, join us in our cozy studio Exerzierstraße 8.
You will be introduced to the beautiful alchemy of botanical bundling and will leave with your own botanically dyed silk scarf.
This workshop will cover:
- different types of plant pigments and how to use them
- preparing different fabrics for the dyeing process
- how to make plant colors light- and wash fast
- using different bundling techniques to achieve different results
It's a great opportunity to be introduced to the beautiful alchemy of plant dyeing. If you're interested in acquiring more in-depth knowledge, we recommend the "Botanical Dyeing" workshop.
This workshop can be held in English or German. If you're a beginner or have only a basic knowledge of the subject, this introductory workshop is for you.
All materials will be provided, including fabric, mordants, and dye plants.
