natural dyes workshop

  • Warlingham Forest School (map)

Come and enjoy a colourful, hands-on day for the whole family

Join us at Warlingham Forest School for a fun and creative workshop where you’ll explore the magic of natural dyes made from plants, food scraps, and foraged treasures. This is a wonderful way for children and grown-ups alike to learn, play, and get creative together in nature.

WHAT YOU’LL DO TOGETHER:

Discover natural dye ingredients you can find in your garden or even from your kitchen!

Make and use different plant dyes over a cosy campfire

Prepare and dye fabrics, and watch how colours change like magic

Try out different techniques to create rainbow shades

Learn how to make colours stick using safe fixers called mordants

Experiment with patterns and textures using fun tools and methods

Show off your creations to take home!

All materials are provided but you can bring a plain t-shirt if you’d like to dye it

Lunch is included

This is an outdoor adventure — dress for the weather and for getting messy!
