Nikolett Madai Kitchen waste workshop- s

iron colour shifter

There are plenty of accessible food by-products in household kitchens too that can be turned into DIY dyes without the use of chemicals. For the MAKE SMTH event organized by Greenpeace Dyeluxe facilitated a workshop on dyeing with kitchen scraps from pomegranate and avocado. These two types of food by-products serve well for homemade experimentation as they contain tannins naturally in themselves, which help fix the colour into your textile choice.
