Workshops, Classes and Experiences

---

October 4th, Friday 6-8pm

The Pottery Atascadero, 5800 El Camino Real, Atascadero, CA 93422 

Learn the process of natural dyeing while embellishing 4 organic cotton napkins, with flowers and plant materials. We will also make 4 ceramic napkin rings to coordinate with your beautiful napkins.

Choose from flowers, food waste and plant pigments from the “dye bar”. You will then place the natural pigments on each napkin and bundle it up.  While our bundles are steaming, you will craft napkins rings out of clay. 

This is a perfect way to upgrade your holiday dining tables with napkins and rings that you have created yourself.  There is an option at signup to add additional napkins to your set.

Additional information on naturally dyeing at home will be provided so you can continue the craft at home. 

I'm very happy to show you something that I love so much. If you have any questions, please email me at bobbi@couleurdelavie.com or call me at 310-210-7539.

Past Event

 
Remember when you woke up early during summer break and headed to day camp side to meet friends and learn how to tie knots and learn crafts. Well, there's your chance to do it again and learn the art of Natural Dyeing and Herbal Crafts.

Day Camp will start early to beat the heat, and you will have a camp brunch bucket to nosh on throughout the workshops.  The Brunch Bucket is a yummy mix of locally made cheese and charcuterie items curated by my amazing neighbors at Black Market Cheese Co. You will love it, and you can even stop by on your way home to check out their farm and fromagerie.  

We will start with a bundle dye project.  You will learn to naturally bundle dye a bandana, pillowcase, silk hatband, or silk zippered purse with natural pigments. You will then learn to print flowers onto a cotton zippered bag, cocktail napkins, or a pair of crew socks.   While our items are steaming, you will learn about the herbs from Allison Lorne. She will guide you through making an eye pillow made from herbs grown on the couleur de la vie property. 

You can choose your silk bundle dye and flower print options when you check out.
