Natural Dyeing

Natural dyeing is the process of coloring fabrics using dyes derived from natural sources, such as plants, insects, and minerals. Unlike synthetic dyes, which are chemically manufactured, natural dyes are often made from leaves, roots, berries, or tree bark. This method not only produces beautiful, often unique colors but also promotes sustainability and environmental awareness. Natural dyeing techniques can vary, involving processes like boiling or soaking materials to extract color. The resulting fabrics can exhibit softer, more earthy hues, connecting the artistry of textile production with nature and traditional practices.
