Youth dyed silk scarves using the "bundle dyeing" method using plants. Local flowers, berries, and leaves were used, as well as some items bought from the store such as fruits and flowers, to dye the silk scarves. The youth learned about using alum as the mordant to treat the scarves, and how the plant material bonds to the scarves because of the use of the alum. When completed, the scarves were bundled using rubber bands and steamed in order for the plant material to adhere to the scarves.
