What can I expect from hand-printed textiles?
The two of us design, print, and dye all our textiles in small batches of no more than twenty pieces, and slight variations and inconsistencies are to be expected. These details add to the rich story told by our materials and the work of our hands—they’re a part of the process to be celebrated!
Though we do our very best to describe and photograph our textiles accurately, please remember that computer displays vary and images are only representative of each print batch. The item you receive may differ slightly from the pictures you saw online.

Do natural dyes need special care?
Many plants, insects, and other natural sources can produce color. However, not all of these colors are created equal. At Homebody, we only use natural dyes with high light- and wash-fastness, dyes that have stood the test of time. You don’t need to worry about our textiles bleeding or running when they get wet, nor will they fade quickly in the sun.
The one thing to be aware of is that natural dyes are sensitive to pH levels. Exposing your textiles to strong acids like lemon juice or strong bases like bleach can alter the dye chemistry, causing the colors to shift or fade.
