If you know me, you know I don’t like being told, “There’s nothing you can do about that.”
That is exactly what led me to become a Certified Color & Dye Technician.
Some problems cannot be solved with cleaning alone. Bleach removes color. Dyes can migrate. Sunlight can cause fading. White knots can become distracting on a beautiful handmade rug. These are color problems—and they require an entirely different set of skills to correct.
This certification allows me to take the textile knowledge I already have and go one step further: carefully restoring color where possible, while respecting the fibers, construction, and history of each piece.
I’m excited to begin offering these specialized services through DG Textile Care. And yes—I am absolutely ready for the challenging ones.
