Join me this summer for a 2‑hour hands-on bundle dyeing experience at The Rooster, a slow‑living resort set across 30 acres of sun‑blushed hills, untamed gardens, and golden dunes near Livadia Beach, in Antiparos.
♻️ What makes this place special
Nestled into the Cycladic landscape, The Rooster is deeply rooted in sustainability. Its organic farm (just a stroll from the villas) is the heart of the community—supplying fresh vegetables, herbs, eggs, artisanal sourdough, and more to the kitchen and its tables . You’ll feel the farm’s energy as we gather seasonal plant material for dyeing.
🎨 What you’ll explore
Natural dyeing techniques: Learn to prep cotton, forage and identify dye plants, and use food waste and flowers for colour.
Bundle dyeing magic: Arrange your chosen materials thoughtfully to imprint unique patterns and tones on a cotton tote bag.
Mindful creation: Workshop unfolds in harmony with the island’s natural rhythm—surrounded by fields, edible gardens, and the gentle rhythm of farm life.
🌱 What you'll take home
A one‑of‑a‑kind, naturally dyed cotton tote bag infused with summer colours and the spirit of The Rooster’s farm lifestyle.
🧺 All you need
No dyeing experience needed—just bring your curiosity. I’ll provide all materials, including cotton tote bags, baskets to collect fresh plant material from the garden as well as dried flowers and plants from my own collection.
