I learned this technique, which makes an image using the natural dyes in plants, from my college roommate Sarah. It’s great for making cards or simple botanical prints.
flowers or leaves to print
watercolor or other rough, acid-free paper
selection of hammers (including ball-peen or cross-peen, if possible)
hard work surface (cutting board, slab of wood, etc.)
I was a garden blog pioneer, and began writing on this blog in 2003. Before that I had begun a garden website that has been at its own domain since 2006, Ilona's Garden.
I still love writing, gardening, and art after all these years, although travel and grandchildren have become a big part of my life, now.
