Silk scarf with eucalyptus leaves

• Silk scarf eco-printed with eucalyptus leaves from South Coast NSW
  
• Golden and orange tones have come out from the leaves together with tannins
• 180cm x 35cm 100% silk with hand rolled hem
• a lovely soft stunning scarf

The eco-printing process I use involves wrapping the leaves around the fabric, tying tightly and boiling for many hours. I use a piece of salvaged metal in the boil, which also gives colour and interest to the finished result. I don't use any chemical or powdered mordants in any of my products. The scarves are colourfast and can be washed by hand with a pure soap.
