A Splash of Color
by Katrina A. Yeager
Want to add a bit of flair to your wardrobe? Try a scarf. Mitzi Johnson manipulates colors and patterns on broad bands of fabric such as silk, velvet, crepe, and chiffon. There are basically three options: hand-painted, hand-dyed in a single color or in a fade, and hand-dyed in two contrasting colors (one on a background and one on a raised pattern). But when you take into account that Mitzi mixes her own dyes and offers a variety of sizes and types of fabrics, the possibilities become limitless. Scarves are priced at $32 and up. Available from Aurora's Highlights, South Hero, Vermont. 802-363-4448; vermontscarves.com
