Announcement    We ENCOURAGE YOU TO BUY @ SHOPWAXON.COM instead of here! Etsy is not very good to its sellers, and it makes more profit from our handmade items than we do. Help us slowly divest by bookmarking our website, www.shopwaxon.com.

Curious about what makes our Ice Dye Kits the best? Here's a video! https://youtu.be/bwXwDbq9cVM

Everything listed here is in stock and ships in 1-3 days, except custom orders, which are dyed when purchased and take 1-2 weeks to ship out.

We are an open arts & crafts workshop in Asheville, NC. Come see us sometime, and make your own uniquely dyed item.

If you don't see what you're dreaming of, contact us and we can make whatever size/color/design you want. We draw in hot wax on fabrics before dyeing them, so virtually any design you love can be rendered into a splashy, crackled, batik look.

Multiples & batches are our speciality. Imagine beautifully hand dyed shirts in different sizes so your family/ club/ team can match.

Local? Book parties & events, take classes & workshops in Western North Carolina:

🌾 ABOUT OUR DYES

Fiber reactive (“low impact”) dyes have a higher than average absorption rate (around 80% depending on the color). Less water is required in the rinsing process, and less dye runs off in the water. These dyes have a lower impact on the environment than other synthetic dyes.

Low-impact dyes do not contain heavy metals (like chrome, copper and zinc), and they don’t require toxic chemical mordants to fix them to the fiber. We use soda ash, a cousin of baking soda!

Colors on your screen will not represent a perfect match to each dye job. Hand dyed fabrics are created anew with each garment so colors are approximate. That’s the true beauty of hand dyed!

Frequently asked questions

Care instructions

Everything we make in our studio has been washed several times, and is ready for you to put on and wear, or toss in your own laundry! Just like anything you buy, water on the cool side will help your garment last longer than hot. But you don’t need to worry about our dyes running.

Wholesale availability

We are very interested in developing new wholesale relationships. Just send us a message!
