Eco dyed papers made into a Slip Knot binding book

This book is made of 425 gsm watercolor papers I have eco dyed. The binding is one of my favorite bindings, the Slip Knot Binding. You use the same amount of strings as you have holes.
6 cm pr. page.
There is a lot of ways you can do eco dying. This is my way of doing it.
The recipe: 10 teabags of Earl Gray tea, 10 mm white vinegar, some rusty bits and if you have it 5-6 small green walnuts. The whole bundle under water with a heavy brick or stone on top. Low simmering/hardly boiling for 1,5 hours.

Your book looks beautiful, truly beautiful! I really love the way you added very delicate lines and colours respecting the print. You did the perfect amount: not too much, not too little. Such lovely memory you have there 🌸🌹🌱🌼🥀🌿🌻🪻☘️🪷💐🍃🌺🌷🍀🌾

Thank you for your kind words 🙏

Even if you have no real control over it, your color palette turns out just as beautiful and as ‘Lisbeth’ as always. The binding is perfect for this book, it reminds me of some ancient manuscript🍀💖

Thanks sweet Machteld

I think this is my favourite of all the things you’ve made. It’s beautiful, Lisbeth. Thank you for the inspiration.

Thanks and you’re welcome

Love this beautiful book. You’ve inspired me to try eco printing. I’ve made books before but not the eco prints. Lisbeth, you make me laugh every time you say ain’t. It’s so funny to hear you say it. Thanks so much for your instructions and skill.

[@lisbethdegn-dragenkunst]

Thank you and good luck. It isn’t always the easiest thing to express yourself in another language than your mother tongue. Also I miss the right words sometimes, but what the heck, people can se what I do. Also all you English speaking folks should try to speak danish or learn another language 😉

[@Rkayhejny3725]

Love how you make a few marks on the pages for the flowers and leaves to pop! I always learn something from your videos, Lisbeth. Thank you.

[@lisbethdegn-dragenkunst]

Hi Lisbeth thank you for your really inspirational video. I was fascinated by the whole procedure and am going to give it a try. As I live in Australia I will be using eucalyptus leaves, geraniums and lavender and some other flowers and weeds in my garden. I can’t wait to try this eco printing and book binding out. All the best ❤️🇦🇺🌹xxx

[@lisbethdegn-dragenkunst]

Thank you and good luck. Eucalyptus will very bright orange colors.

Thank you

[@mjemyers]

How charming!

[@lisbethdegn-dragenkunst]

🙏

[@acknims]

the wobbelie bobbie pages are due to the direction of the fibers in the paper. it looks like some pages go horizontally and others vertically (that gives the best result)

[@lisbethdegn-dragenkunst]

Most likely, because I have used leftover from when I cut the 425 gsm paper up for substrate for my collages. But I think they went quite flat in the book

[@acknims]

They look fine for sure!

[@cherylschliske5811]

Gorgeous!
