Reviews

Review for: Murakami Tea-Dyed Stencil-Dyed Picture Frame Making (1 piece)

An interesting experience using tea as dye colour. Very simple to do. Just need to colour the craft you have selected, wash/iron etc. The owner spent 5 min while the craft was being soaked and explained about the history of the house.
