Natural Dyeing With Food Waste!
What are the most common food scraps that you throw away in your kitchen? In mine it's avocado pits, eggshells, coffee grounds, onion and garlic skins and other vegetable parts. These everyday compost items are also an excellent source for vibrant natural color!
Learn how to use avocado pits, onion skins and coffee grounds to create color on cloth with Faye Lessler of Sustaining Life. Discover the wonders of plant-based dyes and a new way to repurpose your boring kitchen waste. Join new friends from the food, fashion and sustainable industries and enjoy a glass of rosé while you watch food waste become a steaming vat of color. Ask questions about natural color, different fibers, and tie-dye techniques as Faye Lessler of Sustaining Life helps you create three beautiful scarves from plain old compost.
