The Colors of Nature
BRIGHT. VIBRANT. ALL-NATURAL.
Our premium natural dyes and dye extracts put all the colors of nature at your fingertips. No industrial chemicals and no synthetics: just roots, leaves, flowers, and bark. Check out our detailed guides complete with instructions and color recipes to help you create the palette you’ve been dreaming of. Now with free shipping on all orders of $49 or more.
FOR THE SOAP MAKERS.
The last place you want industrial dyes is on your skin. That’s why we’ve developed the world’s first line of plant-based pigments specifically for use in cold process soap. Made from roots, leaves, bark, and seeds, our soap dyes are powders that can be dispersed directly into the lye solution or blended into the oil base - no more long infusions or scratchy plant bits in your soap.
RARE YARNS AND FIBERS
Shepherd Textiles is a weaving studio, and we make it our mission to source the finest weaving materials in the world. We stock rare finds like lotus silk, vicuna wool, deer yarn, and pashmina. We import many of our products direct from the source, and they are not available anywhere else.
WOVEN BY HAND
Shepherd Textiles is a weaving studio committed to keeping old traditions alive. We spin fiber into yarn, dye it with natural colors, and weave it on our collection of traditional wooden looms. We offer a changing selection of handwoven gifts, and we are always happy to discuss commissions for custom designs.
