Hi I’m Carin

Hi, I’m Carin—Natural Dyer, Mama, and artist behind Dye on the Side.

With 25+ years of experience, I teach dye workshops focused on creativity, connection, and sustainability. After leaving a toxic fashion industry job, I reconnected with nature, sparking my passion for natural dyeing.

Motherhood during the pandemic brought its own challenges, but dyeing became my sanctuary, bringing peace and clarity. Now, I’m committed to sharing this healing journey with others through nature and hands-on creative restoration.

Join me in exploring the magic of natural dyeing and building connections through nature and creativity.
