April Castoldi @aprilcastoldi.bsky.social · 04/07/2026Hand-painted silk scarf. What do you love? This is art that brings joy— and you can wear it! (or hang it on the wall, or laid on the table, or tie your hair back with it, etc.!) Commissions available. #accesories #womenownedbusiness #customart #fanart #silk 010
April Castoldi @aprilcastoldi.bsky.social · 02/07/2026My process: I buy plain silk, pre-wash it, cut squares, hem the edges with silk thread, stretch it on a frame, decorate it with melted wax, dye, and sometimes salt. Then I will remove the wax, and steam it for an hour and a half to set the dye. Stay tuned to see how it looks at the next stage… 000

April Castoldi @aprilcastoldi.bsky.social · 12/05/2026Illustrating my own speech therapy materials helps keep me and my students motivated. This is an activity I call “trading places“.
