Dye Painting on Silk

Learning Botanical Arts Silk Dyeing

Learn the basics of painting on silk with fiber-reactive dyes. Try your hand at transferring a design onto silk pocket squares and using a water-based resist to create an outline. Finish off your one-of-a-kind work by adding dye for a bright, vivid color. This technique creates a stained-glass effect and leaves a lasting impression. All supplies included.
