Botanical imprints creation

Another botanical imprinted leather purse just made.  I used the seasonal flower Passifloral coccinea a friend gave me to try. 
 最近友人給我一種紅花實驗,我第一次見這種「紅花西番蓮」,不容易記起的花名,印在皮革上,掀起那薄薄的花瓣,很出色的啡,花蕊更清晰,就把這片試驗小羊皮車縫小腰包,很柔軟呢!疫情下出門,咀巴也給植物印染口罩封著了,一身自作自受!
 
The first time I saw this species of flower and new to my leather experiment. 

Just a few leaves and the flower for my testing.

 To my surprise it works nice particular the stamen on leather, clear and strong.
 The leaf has no color but impressed veins
 Prints of flower and receptacle are different though both are red.
 For this piece without logwood background the flower prints the same.
 These days to make own sane I sewed the leather prints into something functional.  The scrap just fine for a waist purse.
It's so soft.

 Simple and light to carry.
 In this critical status we have to protect ourselves well. Have to wear facial mask when we're out.
 Mogi, don't panic!  You're well to stay indoor.
 I made my own facial mask with botanical imprinted scrap and with an ornament of a beaded bee my friend gave me from South Africa. Just made the facial accessory chic.
 I am out in my creations.
The mask is sandwiched with a surgical mask thus easy to discard and refill.  This way is more protective.
Stay well and safe.

  1. That's ingenious, and a good way to make the mask prettier!
