About this Event
Join us for a creative experience exploring the art of eco-printing! In this two-hour workshop, you will be guided in a step-by-step process on how to prepare your fabric, select and arrange plant materials, and print nature’s beauty onto fabric. You’ll leave with your own unique printed pair of organic, cotton socks, a detailed pdf guide, and the skills to continue your eco-printing journey at home. All materials are included in the class price. This workshop offers an enjoyable and meditative, creative experience. No prior experience necessary.
