Description

Discover the natural world's hidden colour palette with Rebecca Desnos's expert guide to extracting dye from plants, herbs, and everyday ingredients. Learn how to create long-lasting colours on cellulose fibres using soya milk as a natural fixative. From wild plants to kitchen waste, Rebecca shares her step-by-step methods for producing a range of colours, including deep pinks from avocado skins and stones. You'll also discover how to alter colours by changing the pH of the dye, and how to use iron or rust water to expand your palette. With clear instructions and stunning photos, this book is perfect for anyone looking to explore the world of plant-based dyeing.
