Using leaves, water, vinegar, and rusty water, learn how to transfer the images of leaves directly onto card stock paper. We will arrange the leaves between a sandwich of paper and then steam the sandwich in a roaster for about one hour. The finished project will be a colorful, detailed print of the leaves that can be framed or used as cards.
We will provide disposable gloves.

Facilitated by: Gail Maraman
Gail became interested in wool and felt making when she began caring for a small flock of sheep at Windy Crest Farm in Granville, Ohio. Using the wool from her own sheep, she learned how to design and create many different types of felt: traditional, watercolor, needle, and Nuno. Today, her finished felt pieces include wearable art accessories and items for home decor.
