Design and decorate a silk scarf using botanical materials, including leaves from Longwood’s trees. Rose Ann Kramer has refined a technique to use the tannins that naturally occur in botanical material to transfer likenesses of leaves onto silk. The tannins print in different shades and intensities and imprint beautiful, permanent botanical images onto the fabric. Learn the art and science of eco-printing so you can make more on your own. During the class, make two scarves, so you can keep one and give the other as a gift!
No previous experience necessary. All materials and supplies are provided. Wear old clothes.
