Tono + co. Ribbon

Tono + co is the passion of Janelle Nicole Thomson, BTCO Educator and owner of the floral company Lavenders Flowers. Working closely with brides for over a decade, color became the natural center of the work for Janelle leading her to the tradition of hand-dyeing fabrics. Tono + co finds its inspiration in the first-hand knowledge Janelle gained while studying painting & color theory in Florence, Italy. In Italian, tono refers to the gradual increase in color tone, creating a fluid color spectrum. Through the learning process of mixing oil paint, Janelle developed a sensitivity to color tone. Her passions for combining color and texture have evolved into the art of hand-dyed textiles.
