Enter the magical world of indigo alchemy, where you will learn the beautiful and ancient Japanese resist-dyeing technique known as Shibori.

We will show you folded, tied, and bound resist techniques to create your own beautiful indigo scarf. Feel free to get creative and not just use your scarf as a scarf. DIY it into a headband, belt, tube top, or even a pareau.

We will start the class with a little history of indigo. (Fun facts - Did you know it is a plant based dye? Originating in India about 3300 BC?) Our knowledgable staff will then demonstrate dye techniques and be available for one to one assistance. After that the sky's the limit for you to get creative and have fun.

Island Bungalow Hawaii uses only all natural plant based indigo for our workshop. We will provide all the materials needed, just show up and be creative.
Class time devoted to lecture: 5-10 minutes
