Dyeing with Ancient Colors Workshop
Date: Sunday, Sept 22nd
Time: 3:00 - 5:30pm
Adult/Children: $65/$45
Instructor: Kah Mun Ng

 We have creative solutions to help you transform what you already own. Look within your closet for items you never wear because of discoloration, stubborn stains, wrong color.

Through this workshop, you will take a step back in time and explore the foundations of natural dyes, such as responsibly sourced Logwood Chips, Cochineal, and Fustic Shavings. They will give new life and color to old garments using ancient methods and materials. You will come away with an understanding of fabric preparation, such as scouring and mordanting, as well as immersion dyeing techniques. Our team will provide guidance on mixing and blending colors to create the most vibrant and long lasting hues. Please drop off or mail your garment made of 100% cotton, linen, hemp, silk or wool, to get bathed in mordant at the Jussara Lee store. This is an important step of the fabric preparation and needs to be done at least one week prior to the workshop date.

If this event is sold out please email mail@jussaralee.com and we will let you know about the next one.
