Lovely to meet you!

I’m Rebecca Desnos, a natural dye artist, author and educator based in the UK.

For the last decade, I’ve been on a journey of discovery with natural dyes. It’s a never-ending adventure with new plants to try that I’ve foraged in the wild, grown in the garden, or found in my kitchen.

Welcome to my studio!

Natural Dye Club is a new way to learn how to dye with plants.

I’ll eliminate the overwhelm from natural dyeing so you can actually enjoy the creative process.

You get access to a library of dye projects and videos, personalised support so you’re never left struggling alone, and a supportive community of other curious dyers.
