It is an exciting week in the garden! Myself and the rest of the CFE team are preparing for the upcoming workshop this Saturday May 30th in the garden! It will be a fantastic day of natural dyeing using buttercups and rope-making using natural fibres. There is no shortage of buttercups in the garden so it will be lovely to utilize them.
For my part in the workshop, I want to bring beads to go beyond rope making and into bracelet making! I thought this may be a fun addition to rope making for kids and those that are jewelry-wearers! I also want to make sure that I am up to speed on the steps involved in natural dyeing. Danielle is our expert in that area and I want to make sure I'm in a good position to support her on the day. In addition to that knowledge, I ordered some cheese cloth to place the buttercups into before they go into the pot of water.
We all have our respective jobs and I am sincerely looking forward to the workshop this Saturday! I hope to have a good turnout on the day. At the very least, I know my Mom is coming to support me and take part in the workshop.
Saturday looks like a mix of sun and rain so fingers crossed that the weather cooperates for us! If that fails, we do have a contingency plan just in case we get rained out.
If you're reading this, I hope to see you this Saturday!
