Natural dye: nature printing

I had a very brief interlude into the art of nature printing or ‘bundle dying’ only making one sample. I used the skin and some thin slices from an onion, folded in silk and bound around a tin with parcel string. The result was quite subtle but I definitely want to try some more!

    • Thanks! I started experimenting with natural dyes as part of my summer research project for university and had such great fun with it that I bought a book for more ideas. The book had a paragraph about ‘nature prints’ so I gave it a go!
