Artists are good at repurposing
things. So why does noted shibori artist and teacher Sue Cavanaugh need a
cardboard box? This is where she measures out her powdered dye, mixing it into
a solution. The box acts as a portable hood, keeping the fine powder from drifting all over the room.
Then Sue and her students will be ready to add color to their carefully
stitched and gathered shibori fabrics. And now you know that those coffee
cup holders can be used for holding jars of dye. Just don’t stick your
Starbuck’s cup in there too.
