** There is no more blue plant-dyed bandana ready to ship but if you want one, I can make some and they will be ready in 10-14 days**

These little scarves are made entirely of organic cotton and are hand-dyed from plants ethically gathered in the Bas-St-Laurent or/and from natural extracts purchased from carefully selected merchants. Plain or with floral prints, each bandana is a unique creation. The color variations are a characteristic of this dyeing process and contribute to create a distinct piece that only you will own.

Lightweight and versatile, it is a perfect accessory for all seasons, for men and women, and even for children.

Possible uses

Wear it on your hair, neck, wrist. Can also be used as a gift or snack wrap, table cloth, wall decoration - the only limit is your imagination.

  • Color: Blue (small shades of blue - see the last two photos with less light for a better view) The photos try to represent the colors and textures of the products as closely as possible. The color may vary based on your monitor's calibration.
  • Dimensions: 24'x24'.

Care

Wash in cold or warm water with a neutral pH soap. Hang in the shade to dry.

Customization

It is possible to check the With personalization option to transform your plain scarf into a unique scarf with color effects - flower petal prints, traces of pigments in confetti, effects achieved by various vegetal dyeing processes.

The result varies according to the base color, the inspiration, the season, my intuition, the available plants. If you have a crush on a particular style or effect, you can drop me a line afterwards, I will take it into consideration. However, you are buying a surprise, so you have to be aware and comfortable with this aspect!

Eco-responsibility

The dye baths are made from elements gathered in the Bas-Saint-Laurent with my mini, from flowers saved from the compost following an event or from pigments purchased from retailers who grow their own plants or who source ethically. I try to develop a work process that is as responsible and sustainable as possible, as much in terms of choosing my suppliers as in the making and the packaging.

My products are made entirely of natural fibers - with the exception of what is upcycled - and can return to the earth at the end of their useful life. Let's try to create and consume without creating more waste!
