Natural Dye Care
The plant-derived dyes I use are typically color fast, meaning they withstand regular wearing, washing, and light exposure while retaining their color for years.
Some fading over time can be expected, but if you feel your piece has faded quickly or significantly, I’m happy to re-dye it within your first year of purchase. Take a photo of your piece and get in touch via the Contact page.
While these dyes are “fixed” and relatively permanent on fabric, there are some steps you can take to ensure your naturally dyed piece retains its color for the long haul.
Washing in cold water (as infrequently as possible), preferably by hand, is recommended.
Shifts in pH can change natural dye colors dramatically, so make sure to use a gentle detergent. Any harsh detergents, especially those containing baking soda, can strip or shift dye colors. (I use Seventh Generation liquid detergent.)
Keep in mind that other substances coming in contact with your naturally dyed goods can also shift or remove colors. For example, a spilled cup of tea, coffee, or juice (acidic) can have a bleaching effect on natural dyes; overly-alkaline deodorants can leave dark marks.
Never dry clean naturally dyed goods–the harsh chemicals will damage dye colors.
Most naturally dyed pieces can be tumble dried on low heat, but air drying is recommended. Always air dry out of direct sunlight.
Avoid extended UV exposure when possible. Some dyes (like tannins) can darken with light exposure, but others are susceptible to more significant fading over time.
If you are hanging a naturally dyed textile on the wall as art, choosing a space that doesn’t receive direct sunlight is recommended.
General Care Instructions:
Hand wash with mild detergent in cold water (or on delicate cycle with like colors).
Do not dry clean.
Air dry in the shade or tumble dry low.
Limit exposure to direct sunlight for longest color life.

Socks are made of 94% bamboo rayon and 6% spandex, giving them some flexibility with size.

Wash with like colors using mild detergent on delicate cycle.
Air dry in the shade or tumble dry low.
Slight color transfer is possible during initial wearing and washing.

Vintage PIECES
All vintage pieces are sold as-is. Please read descriptions and measurements carefully before purchasing, and reach out via the Contact page if you have any questions.
I seek out the highest quality vintage to ensure that the pieces I share can be enjoyed for the longest possible time, despite this being their second (or third, or fourth…) lifetime. Keep in mind that vintage pieces may have normal signs of wear or other minor flaws. I do my best to detect any flaws and note/photograph them on the product page.
Note: A good way to figure out if a vintage piece will fit is to measure a garment you already own (ideally in a similar cut), and see if the measurements match up. For example, the waist of your favorite jeans measures 29” — if the pants you’d like to buy have the same waist measurement, chances are they’ll fit.
Measurements are taken in inches. Keep in mind that a garment with a measurement that is exactly your own will be skin-tight, so a top with a bust measurement of 36” will fit busts up to 36”.
Vintage Care Instructions:
Hand wash with mild detergent in cold water (or on delicate cycle with like colors - linen and cotton only).
Do not dry clean.
Air dry in the shade.
Limit exposure to direct sunlight for longest color life.
