- A Magical Process Using Sunshine and Your Imagination!
Harness the power of the sun to make detailed prints from virtually any object that casts a shadow: tools, toys, plants, leaves, stones, sand, string, lace, etc. Simply place the object on the sensitized surface and expose to sunlight (UV). Use a digitally-printed photographic negative (an inverted black and white photo inkjet-printed onto a transparency) instead of an object to create full-resolution photographs on paper or fabric. Capture the nuance of every shadow-a fun group activity for any age!

Yes, by "dark room" we just mean a room with little or no sunlight

I have a question about cyanotype prints.. I’d like to know if you need to seal these prints with anything so that they don’t fade over time. If so, what do you use?
No, that is generally not necessary with cyanotype. But if you would like to seal and protect your prints, Dorland's Wax works beautifully:

If your prints are fading over time, that usually indicates that you should be using a different paper. But if fading does occur, prints can usually be restored to their original deep blue color by submerging in a dilute bath of hydrogen peroxide.
@@jacquardproducts I also have a question: Does it also not fade without sealing it if you do it on fabric and is this wash proof like when you put this on a regular T-shirt will it last or do I need to seal it somehow?
@@stayfresh4489 cyanotype on wearable fabrics is prone to fading and discoloring when washing. To avoid these issues, use a delicate detergent and only wash in cold water. This one reason we offer SolarFast dyes. SolarFast is similar to cyanotype in process and results, but it is completely permanent and washfast on fabric, and can be laundered normally.
