Payaka's Natural dyeing was started to keep the earth clean.
6-7 years ago, I started dyeing in a country side village at Chiang Mai, Northern Thailand.
This village has many sunny days and groundwater is rich in iron and rich in minerals and is suitable for plant dyeing.
We dye plants and plants throughout the village.The dye settles because it is dyed slowly and slowly over time
​
Thai friendly Mai and his staff. They are carefully dyed one by one. The climate, groundwater,
and the power of the wonderful staff are in harmony, I am always grateful for their help.
The used water will be returned to the fruit garden
* About Natural dyeing *
Choose an easy-to-dye fabric to eliminate uneven dyeing.
Put firewood into the fire and remove oil and dirt from the cloth by boiling it. Then soak with groundwater
​
We make dyes with the help of nature such as leaf, trees, fruit, soil.
Natural dye that we made is slow process to dye in fabric.
A cochineal insect nest is pruned, made into powder and dissolved in water to form a dye solution.
We get the best soil (mud) from the mountains of the village and dissolve it in water.
The mud enters the gaps between the fibers of the dough, so it is harder to lose color than others.
Add ash to fermented indigo leaves to make a dyeing .
Adjust the number of times it is added to the dye liquid, and color change from light indigo to deep indigo.
Ferment the ebony fruit and leave it for 1 month to make a dyeing.
