Naturally Dyed Paper

Naturally dyed paper!
Teresinha Roberts makes wonderful paper from natural materials such as banana and onion skins, sweetcorn husks and tassles. Whenever possible she uses natural dyes. Now she has also incorporated Renaissance Dyeing 'snippets' into her paper.

Naturally dyed papper

Our skeins and hanks are wound on an ancient machine which winds 12 skeins at a time. The skeins are tied by hand and the ends cut off. After that each skein or hank is twisted and labeled by hand. (usually mine!). It is these off cuts that Teresinha has used in her latest batch of paper. To see more of Teresinha's work, including her hand-made cards, visit her web-site at www.wildpaper.co.uk.
