Eucalyptus dyes
Hi wild women!
I'm about to embark in doing some dyeing with eucalypt leaves (and possibly bark). There are quite a few eucalypts in nearby parks and when it's cooler I'll go collecting.
As a complete babe in the woods with this eco-dyeing world, the whole mordant thing has been a bit of a mystery to me. I found this great article by Sally Blake and it really helped!

Hope you find it interesting and helpful too!
