Memory Scarf (SA only)

$160.00

Using flowers from an event or ceremony to create memory scarf

Infuse your wedding flowers into a wearable keepsake, to be worn on special occasions or hung up at home. You can book the wedding bouquet scarf service before or after your event. Once you have posted your flowers to our studio we hand roll and steam print them into a silk scarf. The textile is then ironed and boxed up to be gifted. The process if similar to steeping tea, the boldness and patterns vary with the types of flowers that have been used. For example, white roses will often give soft sienna/golden tones once dyed. Natives will shift to umbers, oranges, and earthy tones. Red roses will print in blush tones and sometimes deep purple depending on if they have been imported or are organically grown. For this reason, no two scarves will be the same and their durability and light fastness will differ from order to order. Botanical dye is not made to last, therefore fading over time will occur. Keep your scarf out of direct sunlight when you are not using it and keep washing to a minimum.


HOW DO I LOOK AFTER MY SCARF?
Natural dye is chemical-free (yay). This means it needs to be taken care of. Washing should be minimal and done in the following way.

-Hand wash in lukewarm water

-Dry flat in shade, do not expose to direct sunlight when drying.

Fading can occur over time.
