FAQs

What is Curious Northwest?
Curious Northwest (formerly Color Me Curious) is a small business focused on hand dyed textiles. Owner and artist Tesh Hummer uses fiber reactive dyes to create one of a kind pieces that bring a modern pop of color to your wardrobe. 

How do I take care of my new ice dyed item? 
All Curious Northwest items are dyed with fiber reactive dyes, making them more colorfast and long lasting than traditional liquid tie dye. Check out our care instructions to keep your Curious Northwest gear looking vibrant!

What does Ready to Ship (RTS) mean? 
Ready to Ship (often shortened to RTS) means the item is complete and ready to ship upon being purchased. RTS listings are often the item pictured in the listing unless otherwise noted. 

RTS items will ship in 5-7 business days from purchase or sooner. These differ from custom listings where the item may not yet be made and may require details from the buyer to complete the order.

Do you take custom requests? 
I try to be mindful of when and how often I accept custom orders to ensure I can maintain a quick turnaround and great experience for those purchasing from my store. Please contact me to inquire about custom availability. If I'm able to accept custom orders, I will verify the availability of your requested style and size, then provide an estimate timeline of when I may be able to complete the custom.
