Hello there!
I'm Manya and I love all things art and design. Nature has always inspired me and in 2019, I felt pulled towards natural dyeing - what started as a hobby soon became my passion!
To me, natural dyeing is not just a beautiful art form - it is the answer to pollution caused by synthetic dyes.
It is a mindset. A way of living and creating in harmony with nature. A way of going back to our roots to create a beautiful present and future!
SHARING WAYS TO RECONNECT WITH NATURE
My goal is to reconnect with nature and I do it through colour! I love sharing the joy of natural colours with others through my online and in-person workshops.
It's been an absolute pleasure to have taught 2500+ people; including school children, college students, fashion designers, researchers and artisans.
THINK OF ME AS NATURAL COLOUR LADY!
I also work with designers and artisans to help them switch to natural dyes. More recently, I have conducted workshops on natural colours for companies such as Ralph Lauren, Atlassian, NetApp and institutes such as JD Institute of Fashion Technology and Mount Carmel College.
I LOVE TO CREATE AND COLLABORATE
I combine traditional techniques and modern methods to create textiles, garments, products under my brand, Treehouse. I specialize in baby wear, textile and print design for brands and other designers and collaborate to create eco-friendly, one-of-a-kind products coloured by nature!
If you have an idea, would like to explore natural colours, or just want to say hello, write me at c.manya@gmail.com and I'd be happy to chat!
