Bring a little botanical charm to your home this spring
Looking for a special gift, something for that gardener in your life or for a friend who might not have a green thumb but still loves plants?
Mini Eco-Prints
These little minis are the perfect size to be displayed on a tabletop or tucked into a shelf surrounded by books, plants or other favorite objects. Each one comes with a 4.5 inch x 3.5 inch easel for displaying, a burlap drawstring bag for easy gift-giving and a tag that explains the process of eco-printing.
This collection of eco-prints represents the passion for plants and gardening I’ve had for as long as I can remember.
Are you wondering what an eco-print is?
Eco-printing is the process of making direct contact prints from the natural pigment found in plants. Bundles of paper layered with plant material are steamed or boiled to release and transfer the pigment to the paper. No synthetic dyes, inks or paints are used.

I hope that through these small botanical prints I can share a bit of the inspiration I feel while outside nurturing the plants in my garden during each growing season.
Each print is a one of a kind original.
