Naturally Dyed With Plants And Eco Ink- – Organic Cotton (GOTS) – L Womens
There is a story behind this garment, it was made in a slow and sustainable way. This item is made using part of the Circular Fashion Principles.
This t-shirt has been hand dyed using non toxic plants from the garden and or printed on with an original design using Permaset water based Eco-Friendly inks.
The front is a hand painted Gnome stencil (made from re-use plastic folder divider), hand painted rainbow flute tune.
Sea sponge is used to dab colour, and a spray bottle cap used to make Cetic Protection symbols.
(The first time I created these circles in this way was just before I found out that my brother took his own life the shirt I made had about 60 protection symbols, It is my shirt now. I take this story to ask you to reach out to anybody if you are concerned about them It could make the difference and offer them some protection from there pscycache)
The back-First a spray of Eco Ink paint was applied and dried to create the background. Then in this piece is our daughters painting using Permaset Eco Ink on a reuse plastic folder divider. It is transferred whilst wet onto the shirt which somewhat alters its appearance as the paint is squashed into the shirt. I (Dad) then kind of like Mr Squigle hand paint (using our sustainable wood paint brushes coming soon) adding to it draw out the images I can see within our daughters transferred image.
This is a never to be reproduced piece, truly one of a kind.
This t-shirt is the Earth Positive brand, 100% organic cotton GOTS certified fair trade and ethically made and manufactured using sustainable energy generated from wind and solar power.
