  • 5/5 from Kristine Valenzuela, attended Aug 2026: We had soooo much fun! The class was informative, engaging, and packed with helpful tips if you’re thinking about trying this at home yourself. There’s so much creativity that can go into these scarves, and honestly, the whole arrangement process was really soothing and relaxing. Fran was an absolute DElight, just the loveliest lady! I feel like we really clicked. And Blueprint Collective was suuuch a great store! So many unique, locally made items to browse. Definitely

Born and raised in the Philippines before moving to San Diego, California after University, France Malvar is a former early childhood educator of 14 years. She built her education career teaching children from toddlers to kindergarten and developing curriculum for preschools in both the Philippines and United States. Throughout her teaching years, France also styled weddings, dove into floral design, took classes on natural dyeing, and started a business. Different threads but all driven by her creative and thoughtful forms of expressing ideas.
In 2020, with the COVID-19 Pandemic shutting down preschools, it challenged France to rethink her goals. She committed to finally pursuing her love and passion for design- enrolling in interior design courses at the New York Institue of Art and Design and diving deeper into her natural dyeing practice through apprenticeships and other sustainable art forms. Her online home decor and naturally dyed textiles business- Lu France Interiors launched later that year. Her brand is an ever-evolving culmination of all her creative experiences and France's way of honoring her culture, the two countries she called and calls home, and the people who shaped her.
Based in San Diego, California, France shares her love and knowledge of natural dyeing through her collections and through workshops in and out of California. Join her at her workshops or book her for a private class and learn how to dye your own silk scarves, pillowcases, ribbons, and more using plants and kitchen waste.
