Co-Owners, Abigail Canney and Christopher Neal
Welcome! Christopher and I moved to Durango, Colorado in 2012 and quickly fell in love with our new home. After living and working here for 10 years, we decided the time was right to start our own entrepreneurship adventure.
As creative DIY-ers, tie-dye felt an obvious fit- it’s fun, it's colorful, and each piece created is utterly unique. We also wanted to find a way to share this activity (that has made such a difference in our lives) with others. Doing tie-dye is fun, but we've found it's even better with friends and family!
So “Give it a Try!” Tie-Dye was born! Continue reading for more information on what we value in life and in business, and how we plan to affect change within our community. If you’re interested in learning more and want to stay informed, please subscribe to our email list and follow us on social media.
We’re so excited to share our dream with you!
"Give it a Try!" Tie-Dye's Values
We are only as good as we set out to be, so we've chosen to make business decisions that reinforce the following principles:
Time is best spent with those you love.
Art should be accessible to and supportive of everyone.
Be open to new ideas and make choices with purpose.
There is no wrong or right way to make art. Trying takes courage!
Giving Back
It is our responsibility to preserve and contribute to our community's culture and wellbeing. As the success of "Give it a Try!" allows, we will devote a proportion of our time to volunteering events and working with local advocate groups.
If you represent or know of a non-profit group that would be interested in working with us, we encourage you to send us an email. We want to spread the love of tie-dye far and wide, to everyone!
