Plant dyes
You might be wondering, why should i chose plant- dyed silk pillowcases? One of the most important reason is to stay away from chemicals. It’s better for your skin, for your body, for the enviroment. Everybody wins! Also remember the part about laying on a grass field when the sun is shining? Add some plants and flowers to that.
As we started to create our collection we had to research different plants, what color they make, is that a permanent color, how do they react to pH change, how fast they fade on the sun.
We finally made our recipes and chose the colors. However sometimes the same plants produce slightly different colors. This depends on many factors such as soil, weather conditions, etc. Usually it is not a big difference and natural dyed colors are always super pretty. Don't worry!
Due to their natural origin, plant-dyed items are inherently impermanent. The colors can fade a bit by ageing, but that does not mean they are ruined. It means that they are alive just like us.
