To imprint fabric with leaves and flowers place the plant material on your material, cover with a second layer and pound with a hammer. Let dry then flake off dried plants.

Indigo, calendula and viola flowers placed on cotton fabric.

Pound with a hammer until color comes through.

Thank you! This looks fun. Are there other plants that would release dyes like these? Is there a website you are aware of?

  Hello,
  There are quite a few plants that work great for dyeing. If you type “Plant Dyes” in the search bar it will come up. You can also rub a plant on your hand and see if any color comes out! Have fun!
