Eco Dyeing

I decided to have a play today with something that I have been wanting to try.  So I raided my garden which consists of mainly weeds and did some eco printing/dyeing.  Here are the results. Not bad for a first attempt.

Then I decided what else could I do so I used the same method but instead of foliage between the sheets of paper I used shelf liners and doilies.  Here are the results.  More subtle but just as good I think.
