Complete DIY cyanotype kit for adults or kids

Description

DIY Cyanotype / sun printing kit - try out this fascinating process at home, to make beautiful botanical “blueprints” with just the power of the sun! Perfect as a gift, or to try out yourself. *Everything is included* in this kit to get you started with this lovely craft. Generous A5-sized sheets allow you to make a larger artwork, or cut the papers down for smaller pieces. No mess & no mixing - simply use the hand-prepared papers with a selection of pressed plant materials. Prints are exposed in sunlight and processed in cold water, with the result being beautiful, archival Prussian blue prints. The materials in the kit are all the same as those I use for my own art - high quality and hand-prepared to ensure that you'll get great results! Each kit comes in an A4 size cardboard box, which is wrapped in eco packing paper for delivery and to avoid excessive packaging. Great gift idea for anyone who likes nature crafts, and suitable for most ages & abilities. However please note that this is kit is not a toy, and adult supervision is recommended for children under 14. See the photos of finished prints to give you an idea of what you could create!
