Making Shibori

There is no greater feeling that making things with your hands.

There is something magical about seeing your hands covered in multi-layered colors of paint. Each color representing another layer that has been added to a canvas. A finished piece of work, handmade by me, using my own ideas and designs, that is life worth living.

Today, I will not be working with acrylics or oils. Lately, I’ve become increasingly intrigued by items that are made to be used – objects that have been made for eating and items that have been made to be worn.

Today, I am going to make Shibori.
