The program is a craft cultural experience held in the sacred space of Yen Thai Communal House. Participants will immerse themselves in the historical flow of the silk trade, directly extract natural colors, and turn leftover silk pieces into refined handmade items with the accompaniment of the Sun Craft team.
01 – LEARN: A brief introduction to the history of Thang Long silk weaving, the significance of the Yen Thai Communal House relic, and the story of local, environmentally friendly fabric-dyeing herbs.
02 – HANDS-ON: Guests choose a color palette and directly dye a silk scarf with plant-based colors; at the same time, they practice recycling techniques, sewing/joining scraps of silk into small accessories (scent bags, coasters, scrunchies, or silk patchwork pictures).
03 – TAKE HOME: Guests complete a product bearing their own mark, receive a handmade packaging bag, and take souvenir photos in the ancient grounds of the communal house.
Learn about indigenous herbal materials used for dyeing
(tree leaves, tuber peels, natural seeds)
Create patterns by hand using folding/tying and color-fixing techniques
on a silk base.
Make use of recycled silk fabric, color coordination, and joining to create
unique personal products.
Artisans/guides assist in finishing details
and refining aesthetics.
Take home the finished product and use it as a souvenir.
