Plant-based inks from carbon and glue date back to 2500 BC. Many local flora, with the correct recipe, can create beautiful dyes and inks for fabric, paints, and drawing, as well as for dip-pen writing. Discover some of the possibilities available right now—what colors can be made, and how to preserve and gift them. Try your hand at quill pen making, from a real feather, and test natural inks on cards to give or frame.
