We're excited to have Stacey Lynn, Textile Artist and the genius behind Too High To Tie Dye at this year's K'ómoks Festival Market.
She works primarily with tie-dye clothing to create unique vibrant pieces that enhance the wear's style and bring attention to the art of slow fashion. By discovering and using individual processing methods, she creates easily recognizable pieces that quickly gain attention. Stacey will be bringing an array of traditional, one-of-a-kind unique, and upcycled tie-dye creations to this year's festival. We have a sneak peek here for you to see. To look at more of her work (and put your wishlist together) you can see more of her wonderful creations at Too High To Tie Dye.
