Cyanotype Bandanas
Cyanotype printing on fabric is a simple and creative technique that uses sunlight to produce vibrant blue designs. The process involves coating fabric with a light-sensitive solution, arranging objects or film on top, and exposing it to sunlight. Afterward, the fabric is rinsed in water to develop the image. Areas exposed to sunlight turn a deep blue, while the covered areas remain white, resulting in striking negative images on the bandana.
