Up-cycle your babygrows - Natural Dyeing Ideas
I asked artist Becca Poremba who gave birth to her second daughter in 2020 to share some of her practise and experiments with using natural materials to dye cotton babygrows. The process is therapeutic and helps you feel mindful as there are a few steps and days involved... we'd love to know what you think if you try any of Becca's ideas. I tried using avocado pits which worked in a really subtle way and gave pink hues to one of Luna's babygrows I've popped in her memory box. The babygrow was special to me because it's the first one my mum bought me when I found out I was expecting her.
