Prep Fabrics for Dyeing

Begin by learning how to properly prepare fabric so it can absorb natural dyes effectively. You'll gain an understanding of the first steps that help create vibrant, lasting results.


Select your botanicals

Select Your Botanicals

Explore a beautiful assortment of locally sourced flowers and plants, each offering unique colors and patterns. Choose your favorites and start planning a design.


Create your bundle dye

Create Your Bundle Dye

Arrange flowers and botanicals across your fabric to create organic shapes and patterns. Then, carefully fold and bundle your piece in preparation for the dyeing process.


Set the natural colors

Set the Natural Colors

Discover how heat helps release and transfer botanical pigments onto fabric. You'll learn the steaming process that brings your design to life and creates rich, natural color variations.


Reveal Your Silk Keepsake

Reveal Your Silk Keepsake

Experience the excitement of revealing your finished piece as you unbundle your fabric. You'll also learn simple care tips to help preserve the beauty of your hand-dyed creation.


Discover the beauty of natural color in this hands-on botanical dyeing workshop in Malibu at The Way We Live Studio! Using locally gathered flowers and plants, you'll learn how to transform fabric into a unique wearable piece inspired by the colors of nature.
After selecting from a variety of seasonal botanicals — or bringing your own blooms — you'll explore the art of bundle dyeing, a process that uses flowers, leaves, and heat to create beautiful organic patterns and unexpected color variations. Your instructor will guide you through folding, arranging, and bundling techniques before revealing how heat helps transfer vibrant botanical pigments onto fabric.
This silk dying class is perfect for creatives looking for fun DIY projects, fun things to do in Malibu, or for anyone into sustainable art. By the end of the workshop, you'll unveil your finished hand-dyed garment and learn how to care for it so you can enjoy your wearable artwork for years to come!
Important Information
The class is held on a farm, so the size of the class depends on the weather. For private groups, Anne-Marie can accommodate up to 40 people if the weather is nice (which is mostly the case in Malibu).

Please note: Public dates for this class require at least 2 guests to run. In the unlikely event that we don't reach this number, we may cancel the session; if that happens, we'll inform you and let you choose between a refund or reschedule, so please watch your email/SMS one day prior to the class.
