Fresh from the Dairy: Shibori Dyeing

I love the indigo hues and accidental patterns that go hand in hand with shibori dyeing. I’m told it’s a fairly easy DIY to take on during a free weekend but with my luck, I’ll come away with blue hands, stained clothes, and series of textiles that look like a Rorschach image gone wrong, rather than beautiful patterns to adorn my home. Until I look up more YouTube videos on how to DIY this project properly, here are a few shibori-inspired wall tapestries from Society6:
