How to make natural paints out of flowers and plants
Pick out a variety of colored flowers and plants.
I had, Bunga Telang (Blue Pea Flower), Pandan Leaf, Hibiscus, Bunganvile, Kunyit Root (Turmeric) and I also went to the forest and took some random berries, leafs and flowers I found on the floor. The colours came out wonderful!
Remove any stems from the plants/flowers and cut the plant/flower in small pieces
Smash the plants/flowers into paste with rocks, a pounder or a blend it with a blender
If the plant is too hard like a beetroot or mangoesteen shells recommend boiling it before smashing it.
Dilute with a bit of water
Add in drop by drop at the time. Your paint should look something like this 👇🏻
Use the paint! Here are some inspiration down below.
