In this project I used a small branch of Silver Princess – Eucalyptus caesia that was conveniently already dried from its time on the verge. And even better still the leaves were still attached to the branchlets. To take advantage of this find I decided to mirror the print. Mirroring the print is as simple […] 
This project is a two part project. We are going to Shibori some water colour paper first, and in the second part we will use them as the resist or barrier when printing. We will end up with beautifully coloured paper that could be used in many projects and the effect the different dyes on […]

Aluminium stackable steamers are great if you wish to do several projects and as they are aluminium they will impart some mordant ability. Read the session about Pots for […] 
This is a combination project where we will printed and Arashi the felt, using resists to protect the print area as we place the bundle in a dye bath rather than steaming it. Our wonderful natives will print easily at a lower temperature than other plant material so we can combine Shibori with printing. Materials […] 
How does it print? The use of steam to raise the temperature to 100 degrees Celsius creates a chemical change in the substance that holds the colour within the plant material. In other words it changes the leaf juice! So we need a method of steaming. There is a session about Steaming methods and equipment […]
