Foraging For Natural Dyes In The Australian Bush! Dyeing My Clothes In Nature
Today I dyed my clothes from earth pigments foraged in the Australian bush! - I built an outdoor fire and boiled a copper mixture (this can be dangerous so please be safe!)
- I pre-dyed my clothes with this mordant, creating a better bond for the dyes
- I boiled the tallowwood eucalyptus leaves for an hour and then took them out leaving a dye bath!
- I added my clothes and let them simmer for a few hours before putting out the fire and leaving them to soak overnight.
- In the morning I was so excited to see what colours I created!
I would like to acknowledge that this work took place on the unceded land of the Arakwal and Minjungbal People and that these processes of dyeing and finding pigments in nature have been practiced by First Nations People for so many years.
We are sisters, Julia and Anastasia -- working our way towards self sufficiency and off grid living on Bundjalung Country in the rainforests of East Australia. We moved from the city to our family’s regenerative, organic farm with a dream to create a more sustainable future for generations to come.
Join us as we learn to care for the land, the animals, and take steps every day to live self-sufficiently!
Here we will share a weekly diary of our trials and joys as we learn to be gardeners, builders, farmers and carers for the land and animals.
