Steaming & Printing


I'm letting these two little bundles of fern and oak leaves wrapped in cotton (with soy mordant) sit unopened for a month. The idea is that they will print their patterns onto the fabric in surprising colours.
They have already been steamed for an hour and now they need to be kept in a humid environment, maybe not possible in Madrid right now? ... hopefully the bathroom will do the trick.
