Step into the world of shibori, the ancient Japanese art of tie-dye, and discover how to create stunning patterns using rich blue indigo dye. This hands-on workshop in Austin, TX introduces you to folding and binding techniques, giving you the foundation to experiment and design your own unique pieces!
During the class, you’ll learn the essentials of indigo dyeing and practice on scrap fabric before choosing your textiles to dye. Select from two project options: two bandanas and a t-shirt, or four bandanas. With guidance in a supportive, small-group setting, you’ll enjoy the freedom to get creative and bring your vision to life.
By the end of the workshop, you’ll leave with your hand-dyed creations and the skills to continue experimenting with shibori at home. Your pieces aren’t just wearable art — they can double as stunning framed decor, adding a personal touch to your space.

Just minutes from downtown Austin, CRAFT is a vibrant, open-concept studio designed for makers of all kinds. With seating for 30 and standing space for up to 50, the space is fully stocked with an extensive library of DIY tools and supplies—perfect for workshops, private events, or spontaneous creative sessions.
Founded in 2013 by Eli Winkelman, CRAFT was born from her vision of a shared craft room for the city—“like a gym, but for making stuff.” After years of storing supplies under her bed and craving a place to get messy, she created a space where anyone, from beginners to seasoned crafters, could explore their creativity without limits.
Eli, a proud Austin native and Scripps College alum, is also the founder of Challah for Hunger, a national nonprofit highlighted by President Bill Clinton in his book Giving. While she has no formal art training, Eli’s lifelong love of making things and passion for building community continues to shape CRAFT’s mission: to inspire creativity, connection, and joy, one project at a time.
