NATURAL DYEING | REBECCA DESNOS on Instagram: "You don’t need to buy dye extracts to make beautiful colours 🌈 We have natural dyes all around us just waiting to be unlocked. When I started natural dyeing years ago, I bought all my dyes. Then I realised that the alder tree across the road from my home was dripping with dye potential.
