Hi, I'm happy you are here!

I've spent years gathering colors from nature and sharing it with others in classrooms, afterschool programs, birthday parties, and unexpected places. I believe creativity should be simple, joyful, hands-on for kids, grownups, and anyone in between. This site is where experiences live and grow.

Hayley created an experience for our family celebration and everyone was happy! We are planning to do another for a special bday party!

Hayley came to my home and taught me and my children how to bundle dye. We love wearing our t-shirts and can't wait to do more!

It was fantastic everyone loved Hayley, the indigo workshop, the stories she told, the client hopes she will do another virtual event.

I spent the day with the dye queen herself at her perfect outdoor studio doing some witchy magic with indigo and flowers

Who Am I?

I'm Hayley Haspel an educator, mentor and textile artist. For over 30 years, I've worked with teachers, children and families across Head Start, private preschools and community based programs in San Diego and Philadelphia.

This site began as a home for my naturally dyed textiles and art-based after school programs. While it's currently paused for sales, it still reflects the joy, creativity and connection I bring to classrooms and professional development.
