Like other small businesses we are facing the harsh reality of tariffs or import taxes while sourcing our dyestuff and goods. with import taxes between 35% and 50%, it has become increasingly tough to keep our pricing sustainable for our cherished customers. This global situation has led us to make necessary adjustments to our pricing on dyestuff and other goods in the shop beginning october 6, 2025. Although this is not the news we want to share with you, we want to express our deepest gratitude to our loyal customers who continue to support us through these challenging times. 

We recognize that acts of creativity is a meditative practice for many of our customers and we are dedicated to providing resources that enable you to creatively utilize your dyestuff and fiber goods while staying budget- friendly. In the upcoming weeks, stay tuned for insightful tips, resources, and education to help maximize your materials and learn more about sustainable art practices.
