Eco Printing

Eco printing is a new pursuit of Barks & Roots. I’ve discovered that birch bark lends itself to eco printing. Grown and processed from my own garden are materials such as indigo, cranesbill geranium, various flowers, and leaves.

Eco printed silk scarves are a new addition to my work. I especially love playing with pre-dyed and over-dyed substrates. The dyes are all natural and each pieces is unique.
