NATURAL DYE: Today, we are part of a natural dye revival. The use of natural dyes contributes to artisen dyers and local economies. Dried flowers used in these kits are grown from farms naturally, harvested and dried at their peak without chemicals. *Due to the delicate nature of dried flowers, you may notice only pedals included or some pedals falling off your flower heads.
ORGANIC COTTON: When cotton is conventionally grown, it often uses toxic pesticides and environmentally harmful fertilizers. Organic cotton is a much safer option for not only individual growers but the ecological benefits of the farmland for future generations.
ALUMINUM ACETATE MORDANT: These bandanas come prepared in a mordant bath. The process of mordant on cellulose fibers is to create a bond between the fiber and dye to improve its ability to take on the color and maintain it longer.
NOTE: Products may look slightly different than feature photos shown due to fabric pattern and the nature of handmade products. It is important to understand that natural dyes change over time, adding to the unique characteristics of natural dyes.
Only let your furry friend wear a bandana and use all products when supervised for their safety. We are not responsible for any damages to our products or damages to any personal property.
Because of the natural dyes in this bandana, if it gets wet while worn there is a chance the natural dye fibers may transfer to clothing or directly to dogs hair or skin. This bandana is not intended to be worn in water.
