MINIMAL WASTE CLOTHING & NATURAL DYE STUDIO

Creating conscious clothing through ancient dye practices
and modern minimal waste techniques

Story of me

Ever wondered what magic happens when plants meet fabric? I did too, and it changed my entire world…

Hi, I’m Maggie, a textile artist and a lover of all things natural and DIY. I’m a mother to a beautiful little girl who inspired me to work hard for my dreams.

My main interest and passion is sustainable fashion in the form of zero waste patterns and dyeing fabrics and clothes using plants.

Ever since I discovered this somewhat hidden world while studying for my degree at university, I haven’t stopped thinking, fantasizing and dreaming about plants and kitchen waste – because various parts of a plant can be used to make dye or a cool print on fabric.

And I often think about (and create) zero waste patterns in my head when I lie down before going to sleep – that’s when I get the best inspiration.

Ready to transform your wardrobe into an eco-friendly masterpiece? Join me as I share my plant-dyeing secrets and zero-waste techniques – from my experimental studio to your creative hands.
