Description
On the last week of the month, we are excited to be hosting our monthly community dye batch to rescue and revive your stained or faded favorites!
COLOR OF THE MONTH : ORANGE CRUSH
Every month the color combination will change and it will be annouced two weeks before, so check out our instagram for photo examples (@sandboxvermont)
Recommended fabric content varies by batch. Best results are always with natural fibers such as cotton, linen and silk. Some nylon and cotton/poly blends will take some dyes, depending on the percentage. Synthetic fabrics such as 100% polyester will not usually take most dye and are not recommended, unless we do a specific batch for synthetics only.
Please no bedsheets, chunky knits or oversized items.
DROP OFF : Before the last thursday of the month (8/27)
PICK UP : First week of the month (after 9/3)

Dyeing clothing feels a little bit like alchemy.🪄
It’s a mysterious mix of materials, and the results are almost always surprising. But that’s what’s exciting about it, something stained and abandoned can be transformed by color, and even imperfections from the garment’s history just adds to the character.
Our set-up is a small and simple one, intended just to revive and rescue stained clothing so that it can stay in your closet longer. 💚
If you haven’t done one of our dye batches before, here’s what you should know;
✨Our process does not use much heat or agitation, which is great for delicate fabrics and also creates very cool tonal variations. Each piece becomes totally unique.
✨Small, lightweight items made from natural fibers are best (think button down shirts, cotton tees, silk tank tops, linen dresses etc).
✨Pre-washing is SUPER important. Things like dry cleaning chemicals, sweat, bleach and other laundry treatments can show up in unpredictable ways when dyed. We recommend using a detergent that does not have lots of chemical perfumes or fabric softeners.
Items are priced by size and weight.
If you have any questions reach out to our team online or in-person at the studio! 👋
Cancellations: Any cancellation must be made at least 48 hours in advance for a refund of 50% off the total cost . If special projects are requested and materials purchased prior to cancellation, the deposit will be utilized for covering the extra material cost.
