Some colors travel far to reach you.

Cempasúchil, Grana Cochinilla, Palo de Campeche, and Flor de Pericón, four pigments native to Mexico, each one carrying centuries of color tradition. Together, they form a palette unlike any other: warm, vivid, deeply rooted in the earth.

With The Mexican Palette kit, you'll use the ancient ecoprint technique to transfer these extraordinary pigments directly onto a silk scarf. Letting each plant leave its own unique, unrepeatable mark.

Frequently asked questions

What will I create?

A one-of-a-kind botanical natural scarf, dyed by hand using the ecoprint technique. Your piece will be unique, shaped by the pigments you choose, your gesture, and that precise moment.

What else do I need?

Just a few things you likely already have at home: a pot, a steamer basket, and a heat source. That's it!

Are natural dyes permanent?

Natural dyes evolve over time, that's part of their beauty! To preserve your scarf for many years, wait 72 hours before the first wash, use a gentle or biodegradable soap, and keep it away from prolonged direct sunlight.

Is this kit suitable for children?

Ecoprinting can be a beautiful experience to share with children, as long as an adult is present and actively involved at all times. Children should never be left unsupervised near the stove or hot water or to handle the pot or vapor.

Are there any allergy considerations?

This kit contains natural plant-based pigments. People with sensitivities or allergies to pollen, dust, or botanical ingredients should take care when handling the pigments. If in doubt, we recommend wearing gloves and a mask.

I've never dyed fabric before. Is this for me?

Absolutely! The kit includes a step-by-step guide designed for complete beginners. No experience needed, only curiosity!
