Dye Gift Wrapping with Indigo–December 💝

from $98.00

Learn how to indigo dye fabric that you’ll use to wrap gifts, and as a bandana or tea towel. In this workshop, artist Margaret Seelie will show you how to create patterns like flowers, polka-dots, sunbursts, and more using ancient binding techniques and indigo dye. You’ll also learn different ways to wrap gifts with fabric that are guaranteed to fit every shape and size package.

To get into the holiday spirit, we’ve added the option to enjoy a glass of white or red wine during the workshop; just choose “with a glass of wine 🍷” from the dropdown menu. Each wine is selected by the sommelier at Sea Ranch, and promises to impress the palate.

December 13, Saturday, at The Sea Ranch Lodge, from 10:30 to 1:30.
