With 16 flowers you can make double the prints (32 prints total) because each flower will print on both the back and front side. An assortment of wonderful dye plant flowers in each kit including: multicolored cosmos, coreopsis, purple pincushion, weld, dyer’s chamomile & the sweetest little starfire marigolds.

  • Natural dye fixative- alum & iron (color modifier) *There is more than enough fixative included to pre-treat other items you might also like to dye to extend the kit project fun!

  • twine & gloves

  • Instruction card with link to password protected private series of instructional videos taught by The Dogwood Dyer- (available only to Kit Owners!) to guide you through the processes of pre-treatment, composition for your prints, steaming and setting the dye and laundering care for your naturally dyed textile for the longest flower print life possible.
