    These are really pretty eco prints. And the onion skins make a significant difference. Thanks for sharing.

      Since there is not much blooming, I put the onion skins in to help bump color! Thank you!

    Loved this! The little blue plants are Muscari-we have them here in Texas for about a week too. They are wild I think.

      Thank you for that info! I’ve always referred to them as “violets”. I tried to look them up before I posted but could not find!! They are great for color!

      My botanical days are far behind me, so I could very well be wrong, but they look like what my mother used to call grape hyacinths, or wild hyacinth, a relative of the domesticated hyacinth. Whatever they are, they have such a delicate beauty. And the papers you created are wonderful ! Thank you!

      They are so small and come up so randomly, but always in my flowerbeds. My house is 104 years old so they could be something planted years ago😄

    • @ephemeraphilesbytomi

      Muscari and grape hyacinths are the same plant. I grow them in my flowerbeds. I need to try this technique with them!

    Gorgeous results! I have this little plant as well so I will be trying this. Did you brush the alum water on both sides of the paper? Also wondering if the green stacks were all garlic or did you use regular grass too? Thanks so much!

    • @TwoOldCrowsMixedMedia
      @TwoOldCrowsMixedMedia  5 месяцев назад

      All garlic as it was very prominent and yes, both sides of paper as both sides absorb the plant! You will love the color you receive with this little blue flowers!!

    Hello
    Absolutely love those eco dyed papers. I was trying to find your Amazon store and can’t seem to find it. Do you have a direct link?

    Did not see the Alum list in your store. Where can I get it in bulk.

    Is the paper a cardstock weight❓❓❓❓

    • @TwoOldCrowsMixedMedia
      @TwoOldCrowsMixedMedia  5 месяцев назад

      It is 120# watercolor paper--I have used card stock in the past, it is more fragile but it will work, just be careful when you remove the plants!
