## About Eco-Printing: Capturing Nature on Fabric

Eco-printing is more than just arranging leaves on cloth; it relies on a specific chemical process called mordanting. During my sessions, we focus on the bundle-steaming technique, which allows the natural pigments from marigold petals or Sappan wood to bond permanently with your fabric. It requires patience and attention to the steam temperature, but mastering this step is the only way to ensure your prints don't wash away after the first rinse.

Whether you are using marigold from the temple, onion peels from your kitchen, or Sappan wood for those vibrant pinks, the process is deeply rooted in nature. Many beginners worry about color fastness, which is why I break down the specific mordants like alum or iron required to lock the color. We cover the full journey: scouring the fabric to remove impurities, selecting the right botanicals for the best print clarity, and the crucial steaming phase. This is not just about crafts; it is about shifting your perspective on what is 'waste.' By the end of our time together, you will know how to turn plain socks, scarves, or tote bags into one-of-a-kind, botanical-printed pieces. We keep our workshops accessible, teaching you how to build a setup at home using simple stove-top steaming methods, so you can continue creating long after the session ends.
