Learn how to hand dye protein fibres (animal fibres such as sheep wool, alpaca, yak and silk) or cellulose fibres (plant fibres such as cotton, linen, hemp and bamboo) using natural dyes only.
The craft courses and workshops are a hands-on learning experience using ancient natural dyes such as Madder, Weld, and Cochineal, to name a few, in their natural form as well as extract. You will leave with the knowledge to successfully dye yarn and fabrics with lasting colour to use in your projects at home.
Make your own beautiful container candles with this half-day candle making workshop!
This workshop is suitable for complete beginners and those just starting out. This is a practical, hands-on workshop and after a demonstration, you will prepare, and hand pour your own candles. The workshop will give you the knowledge and skills needed to create your own candles at home.
