As seen on The Guardian, TimeOut, Broadsheet, Concrete Playground, Sydney Morning Herald, The Age, and more. Here's how it works:

1. Book or Request your preferred time
2. We'll deliver a ClassBento Box to you - this is a physical DIY craft box containing the materials you'll need. Shipping is free, and it should arrive within 2 to 4 business days for Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Canberra; 4 to 9 days elsewhere. We ship nationwide.
3. Enjoy the online class. You'll receive a link to a Zoom meeting. On the day of the class, use that link to join the class. Class sizes are kept small, so you can easily ask questions and get immediate responses. Zoom is free and easy to use, on any device - smartphone, tablet or laptop. You're in control of your privacy - you can mute yourself and hide your webcam if and when you prefer.

A playfully inspiring workshop where natural dyeing basics will be shared and experimented with! Perfect for anyone, including beginners, and those looking for unique things to do at home.

In this live online class, you will learn how to bundle eco dye and create with plants and food, plus other natural materials. We will also use flowers, food, weeds and leaves to create eco print patterns on raw cotton with a basic technique simple to do with children and share with friends for gifts!

In this class, you will be making your own natural eco-dyed silk scarf or we can help with another project from your home.

The eco-dyed kit that you will be delivered to your home when booking the class, will help introduce you to the simple joy of bundle dyeing that you can do in your own kitchen pot. It's so much fun to do alone for creative self-care or share with your loved one to make your own scarves together!
