Workshop with Waste Will Save Us at Margate's Windmill Community Gardens
1pm - 3pm
At this workshop, there will be a big pot of ‘seasonal colour’ to hand dye your clothing or textiles using natural dyes made from local seaweed, rethinking waste and transforming old items into new by repurposing what we already have. Breathing new life into old clothes and materials that would otherwise end up in landfill.
Bring Your Own garments or textiles for a new look (garments and fabrics must be natural for the natural dye to hold... cotton, linen, silk etc.)
A mordant will be provided using soya milk and a dye Vat with seaweed foraged from the local beach.
This event is perfect for anyone looking for a way to gently refresh and transform your textiles, merging experimentation & nature for a relaxing summertime activity.
To further boost your creativity and in keeping with the ritual ethos of the brand - immerse your senses in scent and sound.
Moroccan mint tea will be served with Mint picked from the gardens.
Music will be played.
Open to all ages
