This postcard started with avocados. The illustrated guide on the front walks you through how to dye fabric a soft, dusty pink using avocado pits and skins — something that sounds like it shouldn't work but absolutely does.

The artwork is painted in gouache and printed on heavy 4"x6" card stock. It's sturdy enough to actually mail, nice enough to frame, and small enough to tack up in your studio as a reminder that natural dye doesn't have to be complicated.

Part art print, part DIY reference. A good gift for anyone who's been curious about natural dyeing but hasn't known where to start.

Perfect for: natural dye beginners • avocado dye tutorial • eco friendly craft gift • gouache art postcard • DIY natural dye instructions • sustainable craft supplies • gift for makers
