Cochineal & Eucalyptus Fae Top | M
•°•This One of a Kind Fae Top is cut & sewn with love from organic hemp jersey stretch fabric. It can be worn either way for a reversible neckline.
It was lovingly wrapped in eucalyptus leaves, onion skins & rust, then dyed with Cochineal beetles.
♡Cochineal is a tiny, cactus-dwelling insect that creates a vibrant red pigment, and has been harvested for thousands of years by Indigenous peoples to produce dye for their own textiles.
♡Eucalyptus is a symbol of strength, protection, and abundance. Eucalyptus in its sacred spirit allows us the strength to purify what no longer serves us.
♡Iron~Rust
Iron has a long history of being used in magic practices for spiritual protection and defense. Iron is considered a sacred metal that represents the element of earth, human strength, sharpness of body & mind, power and courage.

Please Note:
All color changes over time, as do the fibers that make up a garment. Expect natural dyes to mature in a harmonious way, contributing to the character of the cloth.
As with all colors, care will preserve deep rich tones. When washing naturally dyed fabric the pH is important. I recommend neutral pH soap like Ecos, and neutral pH water.
