Handprinted just for your child!
Thrilled to announce the unveiling of our new handprinted collection for kids, two weeks from now. This time we’ve created two distinct and elegantly balanced clothing lines for little boys and girls, using our own signature prints, soft cottons and lovely pastel shades.
‘Earthen hues’ is our collection for girls that celebrates the natural abundance of our planet and its soothing hues. Walk with us as we explore shell studded ocean-sides, evergreen fern valleys and magical pinecone forests. We achieved this collection through the handprinted processes of screen techniques.
‘Amazing Origami’ is our clothing series for little boys inspired by art, a harmony parallel to nature. The prints follow the straight angles and symmetry of origami paper models that captivate every child’s imagination. We are so pleased with the end-result achieved by skilled artisans through the handprinted process of woodblocks. These prints have been created using safe and natural pigments.The primary sources of natural and vegetable dyes are parts of plants such as leaves, flowers, fruits, seeds, barks and roots of dye yielding plants. These natural dyes are eco-friendly and bio-degradable and non–carcinogenic. These are soft and low toxic colours and are generally non-allergic. The natural colouring agents used include alum, turmeric, pomegranate, dried flowers and indigo. Blue comes from indigo, green from indigo mixed with pomegranate rinds, red from madder root and yellow from turmeric.
As we stay busy the next couple of days with detailed photoshoots, we wish to take you through our creative journey in the last couple of days that was action packed with designing, detailing, editing, printing, pattern making, sampling and sleepless nights. Watch this space regularly for the next two weeks for candid studio shots and more from the house of Liz Jacob. Hope you enjoy it.
We’ve put our heart and soul into this collection… hope you can feel it too!
