FAQs Something else
Q: Wondering whether we learn how to use the traditional indigo dyes?
A: The class uses natural indigo dye but in a powder form. I prepare the vat prior to the class so there is ample time to prepare fabrics and dye due to the class only running for 3hrs. Preparing indigo vats from leaves takes days and I have only ever used the powder forms. The class is focused on the resist dyeing techniques (folding, binding, clamping fabrics) used in shibori dyeing.
Q: What's the cancellation policy?
A: Free to cancel or reschedule up until 7 days before the class
Q: How long does the class run for, what's the price?
A: 2 hours, $55 - $70 per person ($70 per guest when you book for 5+ guests, $55 for 10+ guests)

What you'll do
Learn the ancient Japanese art of Shibori dyeing in this fun and relaxing Sydney workshop!
In this beginner-friendly class, you will have the chance to manipulate fabrics with tiles, clamps and an array of folding, stitching and tying techniques to achieve unique aesthetics. Be amazed as indigo vat-dyed pieces oxidise before your eyes and turn from green to blue, as we apply a natural indigo dye.
All fabrics are provided but you're welcome to bring your own too. If you wish to bring your own fabrics, these can be cotton, linen, hemp, tencel, bamboo and silk (anything made of natural materials works, just no synthetics or synthetic blends).
All students will take away with them a range of dyed samples, as well as an item of their choosing each out of a T-shirt, tote bag or tea towel - something to treasure for years to come!
This class is run in a fun and relaxed environment and is a great gift idea for creative folks.
Knowledge Required

What you'll get
Your own indigo-dyed t-shirt, tote bag or tea towel to take home.
What to bring

- If you wish to use your own fabric, please bring along natural materials along such as cotton, linen, hemp, tencel, bamboo and silk (no synthetics or synthetic blends).

Your teacher
I’ve been facilitating open to the public DIY screen-printing studios in Sydney for the past 10 years across a few independent creative spaces such as Anyplace studios in Rozelle, Blackwire records in Annandale and currently run The Printroom out of Monster Mouse Studios in the industrial landscape of Marrickville.
I studied textile design at the Eastern Sydney Institute of Technology and instead of being disheartened by the move of hand printing to digital forms and sitting behind a computer all day, I decided to start my own studio. This could not have been achieved without the support and head start afforded to me by Anyplace projects - a group of folks who reclaimed unused buildings and transformed them into creative community driven spaces.
I spend most of my time teaching people how to screen print, Shibori dye fabrics and other surface design techniques. I print a lot of band merch for friends and friends I haven’t met, and help run Monster Mouse Studios as well as work on my own artistic practice.

Carisa was lovely- warm and patient with our group. Everyone loved making their own creations and the surprise factor of unwrapping was a great end to a really fun class. A great Memory for us and our kids. Thanks so much!

Class was so fun and super inviting. The vibe was super relaxed but the build up to the reveal of the final pieces was so exciting. It was great having a teacher who was just as pumped to see your creations as you were and the passion was so tangible. Would easily recommend for beginners or anyone who wanted to try something new!

I booked a small private group of 5 girls (age 10) who are all really good friends. They all loved the class and Carizza was an excellent teacher. She showed the girls so many amazing techniques and they all were able to do easily. Carizza was very clear at explaining what to do and very organised. The girls were very inspired and loved unwrapping their fabrics to see their Shibori patterns.
We will definitely be coming back to do again and would love to try the screen printing too. Carizza has a lot of experience and is a wonderful teacher and really good with kids too.
Sonya Sinclair • Oct 2020
The teacher was kind and inspiring showing many techniques. Indigo would do the workshop again.

Carizza has a lovely manner and style. She was very organised and that meant we were able to cover a lot of different techniques in the 2 hours. She is knowledgeable about her craft. I learnt a lot and very glad I attended.

This was a great workshop. Carizza is a very positive, friendly and helpful teacher. She had lots of samples to inspire us. We learnt a variety of techniques and produced a wide range of interesting samples ourselves in just a few hours. It was a good introduction to the possibilities of the Shibori dyeing technique and made me want to explore more.

The workshop was great fun and well planned. Being able to do a few sample pieces before our own was perfect to ensure we got the technique correct and liked the pattern before hand.
I now have amazing linen bed sheets and pillows that I can't wait to put onto my bed.
I think I'll even come back in the future to finish my dream curtains!
Thanks so much for a.great morning
Carol Annis-Brown • Apr 2019
Carizza was an exceptional teacher . She explained the procedure with samples and demonstrations in an easy to catch on manner and we were then able to start creating our own samples, with Carizza on hand to make suggestions and assist. I was amazed at how effortless , she made it all seem. One of the most enjoyable workshops I have ever participated in.
Anita Turnbull • Apr 2019
This class was well organised by Carizza, demonstration pieces and examples, materials, fabric and dye bath ready to go. The teaching space is set up well with work tables, dyeing and drying spaces. Carizza taught techniques that are easy to follow, but the potential for adding greater detail by combining was also explained and more advanced textile samples were on display to inspire us. Carizza is very welcoming and her knowledge of the indigo dyeing process meant that all our questions were answered in detail. It was great fun too and we got to take a range of our pieces home.
Simone Kasad • Apr 2019
Knowledgeable teacher, big space, enough materials, enough time, good handouts. The time went fast because there’s so many techniques do and explore!

Vivien Gan • Jan 2019

Fantastic workshop. Lots of hands on experimentation. Carizza is knowledgeable and so friendly and made the class so much fun.
Katrina Tarrant • Dec 2018
Carizza was fantastic, letting us quickly go to town on our fabrics both brought and supplied. Loved that there was a great selection of fabrics and she was so obliging with how many things we all personally brought to dye also. Nice space, fresh air, clean. We all love our unique shibori garments. Thanks Carizza.

•What was the teacher like? Carizza explained things very simply which was good and helped us a lot.
•How was the venue? very convenient location
•If materials were provided, did you like them? Yes. It would be good to have the option to buy extra materials as well.
•Was the class good value for money? Yes. The time however went very fast. It would be if possible with all Class Bento workshops to buy some extra time to stay longer and finish projects that would be great as they all seem to be very fast. The teacher has offered to the option to re-enrol again to finish projects which is appreciated.
Tammy Morton • Sep 2018

Ruby Gillett • Sep 2018
Such an enjoyable way to spend the day! Carizza was lovely, helpful and happy with us trialing our own techniques. The materials provided meant I was able to experiment and I also brought some of my own materials.

Shibori dying class with Carriza was an amazing experience! It was our (me and my partner) very first dying class but with her guidance we were happy at the final result .
I highly recommend her workshop to anyone who want a good introduction to the world of shibori or to have an enjoyable moment.
Thank you again
