Description:

Botanical printing, or eco-printing, is a beautiful fusion of art and nature that transforms leaves, flowers, and other botanical materials into one-of-a-kind impressions on fabric. Using the natural pigments and tannins found within each plant, combined with carefully applied heat and pressure, every print reveals intricate patterns and colors that can never be exactly replicated. Each participant will take home a unique silk scarf of their own design. 

Materials:

• All materials including Silk will be provided for $25 per person payable to the instructor.
