Natural Fabric Art Kit

notes

Taking nature as inspiration, this kit contains the foundations for four different art techniques: plant dye paints, charcoal, hapa zome (Japanese expressive art of smashing plants into fabric to extract natural dyes) and wax resist, to create original designs on fabric bunting, flags or banners. Hours can be spent mixing and experimenting with colours, in harmony with the outside.
