Hey! I looked it up, my bad. I used regular fabric bleach, but i have read that hydrogen peroxide works just as well!

Thanks a lot @JesperE2!! Yes, you can use this technique on cotton fabrics, but the colours tend to bleed off a bit on washing. So you may not be able to use this technique for wearable clothes. But you can always make placement mats or decorative wall art with cyanotype and fabric. Best will be if you test the colour bleeding on your fabric by hand washing a small piece of the cyanotype fabric in cold water.

Thanks tercero! Try making them and let me know how they tasted too!

Wow! this looks so pretty.. well done

You should either hand wash it, or you could also wash it alone in the machine. Use some fabric softener and detergent while washing to get rid of the smell. Wear gloves so that the bleach doesn't harm your hands, and the smell doesn't remain. Also you could try to work somewhere outside if you find the smell too annoying.Waiting to see the finished work!

No, not at all. Let the first wash be separate so that all the excess bleach runs off, after that you can wash it with the rest of your clothes.

Really amazing work! What pen are you using?

Hi Teasenz, actually honey has many medicinal properties itself, hence it is strongly recommended only to use honey in the healing tea :)
