SHIBORI Inspiration

Hello all,

Thank you for stopping by.

My mind is again with Japan and its culture and its way to make art since last week I discovered a new company called Ôtsuki Sama. I love all the things that they do and as they said in their facebook page:

"ÔTSUKI SAMA are
Creative Crafts and use of natural materials for limited editions of fabrics patterns painted in watercolor shades of indigo fabrics and other natural essences, 
decorative accessories and fashion, hand-made."





So inspired in their Indigo fabrics my mind swift again into the Art of Shibori.

Shibori (絞り染め Shiborizome?) is a Japanese term for several methods of dyeing cloth with a pattern by binding, stitching, folding, twisting, compressing it, or capping. Some of these methods are known in the West as tie-dye.








Inspired by this, yesterday I created a New Inspiration Board: SHIBORI.


You can follow my Inspiration Boards in Facebook and Pinterest.

Enjoy them!
