There’s something quietly radical about creating beauty without compromise.
That’s exactly why WildHue and Ethical Bedding are the perfect pair. One offers the softest, most sustainable sheets you’ll ever sleep on. The other brings nature’s palette to life with pure, plant-based colour. Together, they create a ritual of rest that’s as ethical as it is indulgent.
Let’s explore why these two brands were made for each other.
Eucalyptus Silk: Nature’s Softest Fibre
Ethical Bedding’s eucalyptus sheets aren’t just soft - they’re silkier than silk.
Made from sustainably grown eucalyptus, their fabric uses 95% less water than cotton, requires no farmable land, and grows without herbicides or pesticides. That means zero toxic runoff and zero environmental guilt.
It’s naturally hypoallergenic, bacteria-resistant, and breathable – making it ideal for sensitive skin, hot sleepers, and anyone who values comfort with a conscience.
Enter WildHue: Colour That Speaks Nature’s Language
Once you’ve felt the buttery softness of eucalyptus silk, the next question is... how do you make it yours?
That’s where WildHue comes in.
Our single-ingredient dye powders let you infuse your Ethical Bedding sheets with natural colour – from moody indigo to golden marigold, celebratory madder red to soft seasonal hues. No synthetics, no toxins, no fillers. Just pure, slow-crafted botanical colour.
Why These Brands Belong Together
At the core, both WildHue and Ethical Bedding share the same design principle: purity.
- Good for you AND the planet
- Materials that regenerate rather than exploit
- Comfort and beauty, without cost to the planet
- Products made to last, not just impress
Where Ethical Bedding gives you a clean, breathable base, WildHue offers the chance to customize that base with living, breathing colour – rooted in the earth and steeped in tradition.
How to Dye Eucalyptus Bedding with WildHue
Yes, you can dye your Ethical Bedding sheets. And yes, the results are stunning.
Here’s how:
- Use a gentle alum mordant to prepare the eucalyptus fibres
- Choose a WildHue dye suited for cellulosic fibres like cotton, bamboo, or eucalyptus
- Dye in small batches, allowing for layered, dimensional colour
- Rinse gently and dry in shade to preserve plant pigments
- Let each sheet tell a story – no two will ever be the same
FAQ: Eucalyptus and Natural Dyes
Can eucalyptus bedding be dyed?
Yes. Eucalyptus just as cotton or bamboo canperfectly be dyed. With proper pre-mordanting, it absorbs plant-based dyes beautifully.
Will the dye affect the softness of the sheets?
Not at all. In fact, natural dyeing tends to soften fibres over time. Just be sure to use gentle fixatives and skip harsh soaps.
What’s the best WildHue dye for bedding?
Try marigold for a sun-washed yellow, madder for earthy rose, or indigo for cool serenity. All are safe and designed for cellulose fibres.

Absolutely. WildHue dyes are non-toxic, free from synthetics, and GOTS-compliant. That means no residue, no irritation – just pure, plant-based pigment.
