I recently attended a cyanotype workshop at the local print studio.
(I received a gift voucher for my birthday)
The tutor was great and talked us through all the steps and gave us loads of helpful hints & tips.
Some of the prints are made using flowers & foliage, and feathers, while others used negatives made from our own photographs.
I really enjoyed it and it has inspired me to experiment more at home.
I found a kit on Amazon for under £50 that gives you everything you need to make them at home. Guess whats going on my Christmas Wishlist!!??!!
