Organic fabric for dyeing

I’ve been a Greenfibres customer for over a decade and I’m thrilled to partner with them to offer you a discount on their fabric and raw materials department (excludes gift vouchers). My favourite fabric is the Organic Cotton Loomstate Muslin which is the perfect weight for scarves. It dyes beautifully and you can see this throughout my book Botanical Colour at your Fingertips.

Online herbalism courses
Learn with Herbal Academy
Dip your toes into herbal medicine by taking a course with Herbal Academy. Learn the art and science of plant medicine whilst deepening your connection with the natural world.
Did you know that many herbs are also dye plants? I’ve taken several of their courses and I’ve enjoyed furthering my herbal knowledge.
Canvas lamp
10% off with REBECCA10
For years I’ve been searching for the perfect tripod (or phoneholder), and this Canvas lamp is it! This patented design is similar to the vintage Anglepoise lamps but it holds your phone for taking photos and videos. It can be adjusted to any angle with ease and it’s exceptionally sturdy. It has a dimmable light in three colour temperatures. The lamp ships from the US and was well worth the shipping cost to the UK. I use it everyday!
