A well-organised guide that will allow you to raid your garden, nearby park, or highwayside for leaves, bark, roots, and flowers capable of producing dye! It takes you through all the steps (listed in Amazon's description) clearly and well. Some of the chemical mordants suggested may not be available in local stores, but I'm sure a quick net search would turn them up. Alternatively, the book lists several household chemicals and methods for producing fast dyes, some of which could be safely used by older children. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
