EARTH CREATIONS

Sometimes, the simplest concepts can give rise to the most beautiful creations, and it was the simplicity and durability of clay that inspired Joy Maples and Martin Ledvina to create their own line of natural dyed clothing.

Founded in 1996, the concept for Earth Creations was born when Joy stained her shirt during a bike ride through the hills near her home. When the pigment of the clay refused to wash out, Joy and her boyfriend Martin started exploring the potential for clay-dyed textiles — a beautifully simple solution for today’s eco-minded shoppers.

How the Clay-Dyeing Process Works

All of the garments from Earth Creations are made from organic cotton or hemp — two of the strongest, most durable, and most sustainable textiles. Without bleaching or treating the fabric, each garment passes through the following stages:

   1. The garment is placed in a pre-dye soaking bath.
   2. The garment is soaked in a dyeing bath of either regional clay or a low-impact dye for a period of 40 minutes.
   3. The garment is transferred to a setting bath for 30 minutes.
   4. The garment is rinsed thoroughly to remove any excess clay.

While not all of the natural dyed clothing from this creative brand is dyed using clay, all of their dyes are gentle, non-toxic, and suitable for sensitive skin. Their garments are also certified UPF 50+ for sun protection — these are “real clothes for real people!”
