COLOR STORY: Our iris flowers, handpicked at their peak, are carefully rolled and steamed into the silk using our signature technique. This process creates a delicate watercolor effect of deep blue tones, accented by soft whispers of gold from the flower's center. Once the intricate botanical prints are set, the silk is submerged in a French Blue dye bath, merging the hues to create a captivating shade with remarkable depth. Each ribbon is a unique expression of this artistry, with some featuring an abundance of botanical prints and others offering a more subtle display.
Original Eco-Print Silk Ribbons: Each silk ribbon is an original work of art, hand-dyed by Shellie in her Hudson Valley studio. Her process begins with a quiet walk through the land she calls home—gardens alive with blooms and wooded paths humming with the rhythm of the seasons. Here, she gathers her palette: fresh flowers bursting with vibrance and petals she carefully collects and dries in her studio—each one a treasure, carrying its own unique color and marking from the earth.
The silk is carefully steeped and prepared, awaiting its transformation. Petal by petal, Shellie arranges her findings, each placement as intentional as a brushstroke. With some areas tightly bound and others left loose, the silk is rolled into bundles and gently steamed, coaxing the natural pigments to seep and bloom across the fabric. The result is a kaleidoscope of abstract markings and hues, blending as effortlessly as the colors of a sunset or the shifting tones of a forest floor.
No two ribbons are alike—each one a singular expression of the land, the season, and the hands that shaped it. A piece of nature, artfully captured in silk.
Original eco-print silk ribbons are a luxurious choice for high-end, artistic applications. Most popularly, they are used as a personal expression on bridal bouquets, adding a one-of-a-kind, nature-inspired touch to a bride’s special day. In the world of fashion, these ribbons elevate custom couture designs, serving as a sustainable fashion statement in trims for dresses, jackets, and other bespoke creations. Bespoke milliners also adore these ribbons, incorporating them into hat bands and bows to craft truly unique headwear. Beyond wearable art, our original eco-print silk ribbons have found their place framed on walls, showcasing the allure of their abstract patterns and natural hues. Each ribbon is a testament to craftsmanship and creativity, offering endless possibilities for those who value art and nature.
CLASSIC, SATIN, SHEER SILK RIBBONS: Our ribbons are thoughtfully crafted with longevity in mind, designed to be cherished as keepsakes or used and reused for years to come. If cleaning is necessary, gently hand-wash in cold water using a mild, pH-neutral natural laundry soap. Plant dyes are "living" colors that can be shifted by chemicals and drastic changes in pH. Avoid wringing or twisting; instead, press out excess water with a clean towel. Lay flat or hang to air dry, keeping them away from direct sunlight to preserve their rich, natural hues. For a smooth finish, use a medium-heat iron or steamer.
To refresh ribbons and remove creases or wrinkles, lightly spritz with water and, when nearly dry, steam or iron on medium heat. Pro Tip: A hair flat iron makes an excellent tool for quickly smoothing ribbons and ensuring a flawless, wrinkle-free presentation.
ETHEREAL, GOSSAMER, ORGANZA, TAFFETA SILK RIBBONS: These ribbons are delicate and require extra care. Dry cleaning is recommended to preserve their fine, airy weave, as hand washing may alter their delicate structure.
