  "description": "### **Paper & Prints: Paper dyeing & Eco-printing**\n\nPart 3 in a series of 4 evening Colour Lab workshops\n\nLearn how to dye paper with natural colour and make botanical contact prints using leaves and flowers.\n\n![](https://r2.dandelion.events/2026/10/02/11/11/58/03cc2c7f-78b1-441e-9dc1-5c380a694d54/paper1.jpeg)\n\nIn this workshop, you'll make a natural colour vat from flowers or food waste to dye paper rich, bright colours and make your own set of botanical contact prints with plants foraged from the land. You'll learn how to mordant paper to achieve brighter, longer-lasting colours (a method that can also be applied to certain fabrics) and explore which plants are more effective for eco-printing. \n\n We'll also look at examples of creative projects that your papers and prints can be used for once dry, including bookbinding and collage, giving you some inspiration for January craft sessions.\n\n**You'll go home with:** a set of dyed paper samples and your own eco-printed booklet.\n\nOpen to anyone aged 18+. This workshop builds on skills and materials developed in workshops 1 and 2, but is open to those joining for the first time - no previous experience required.
