Natural dye

While eco printing uses plants and flowers to create unique patterns on fabric, natural dyeing uses plants and other natural materials to produce colors on fabric. Natural dyes offer a beautiful alternative to synthetic dyes, and they are often more gentle on the environment and the skin.

Things to know when washing naturally dyed fabrics

  • Separate wash

    To prevent color bleeding, it's recommended to wash these items separately from other clothes for the first few times.

  • Hand wash and squeeze out excess water

    For delicate or smaller items, hand washing and gently squeezing out the water is best. Larger items can be machine washed, but it's advisable to check the care label for specific instructions.

  • Sun drying is recommended when damp

    Once washed, you can sun-dry these items while they're still slightly damp. Natural dyes can fade over time, so it's important to dry these fabrics as quickly as possible. Excessive sun exposure can cause the colors to fade prematurely.
