Eco-Printing with Pressed Flowers on Silk

  • Crane Arts 1400 North American Street Philadelphia, PA, 19122 United States (map)

Learn how to use pressed flowers to create a stunning, one-of-a-kind silk scarf. This hands-on workshop will lead participants through the natural dye process known as 'eco-printing' using locally grown dye flowers. Eco-printing is a direct dyeing technique that creates near-perfect plant prints on fabric or paper. It is also one of the most water-wise natural dye processes, making it particularly eco-friendly. Gain insight into the unique dye properties of flowers and leaves and how they impart rich colors and stunning patterns onto fabric. Experience the magic of coaxing color from botanical materials to create works of art on fabric. Whether you’re crafting a gift for someone special or treating yourself, you’ll leave with a beautiful, naturally dyed creation and a deeper understanding of sustainable textile art. 

This workshop is appropriate for all levels of experience ages 12+. The $90 per person workshop fee covers all materials and supplies.
