My friend's father used to make dandelion wine.
that's cool ! i tasted some dandelion wine before, it's very special
how ?
I love how she tells us how and why things work instead of just “do this” “do that”
thanks for noticing
Dandelions have always been my favorite flower, regardless of what others may think of them.
I absolutely LOVE them. Especially love seeing them all over green grass. How beautiful.
Oh! Maybe you van use the leftover fibers to make paper? I've seen it done before! It's so much fun!
Yes ! i've made paper with other flowers' leftovers after this video. I never tried again with dandelions but it would be amaazziingg for making paper i'm sure !
Dandelions are a natural medicine, soak them in oil, and then make a salve, to rub on!♡ It's very soothing. ♡
that sounds fabulous :)
Great job! Thanks for the info. I’m just learning how to make watercolors .
I agree about dandelions being important but they aren’t the only flowers in early spring that the bees use! That’s what I’ve heard at least. Also Dandelions are edible and are super healthy, also prettyyyyyyyyy i love them
Thy also pull nutrients up into the top soil; I think mostly calcium, and pull apart hard soil.
Yes, I was just going to share the same information about calcium. I try to observe "NO MOW MAY" here in Pittsburgh, PA. , but it is difficult where I live. We actually have a 6" grass height rule. @@invisibelle7590
this was such a lovely video! thank you so much for making it
thanks for your support
I had mold with rose petals. Color was amazing and after it dried, because of the mold I couldn't use it and back then I couldn't find any solution. That video inspired me again to make some lake pigments! Thank you!
Rose petals do give amazing colors
i've found that a cheap vacuum chamber helps dehumidify the pigments pretty quickly. just need to make sure the pigment is pretty dry to start with if you have an oil turbine vacuum pump, or you'll get water in the oil and have to separate it afterward. i put my pigments into the vacuum chamber to dry them before mixing them with oil or any oil based carrier and i've gotten much more consistent results. i'd like to get a piston style vacuum pump to dry the pigment after filtering. should be able to get fully dry in a few hours in most cases.
I've never heard of that before ! Thanks for sharing
My friend who knows a lot about plants said that a lot of the time people say have dandelions but really its actually a plant called cats ear (also known as false dandelion) and the difference is that cats ear will have 2 flowering buds while dandelions only have one as well as cats ear will have a lot more furry leaves than dandelions
Yes that's true ! They are really lookalike. I'm wondering if they would give similar colors..
I just had a thought instead of letting the pigments dry on the fabric. If you have access to a dehydrator, could you use that instead? That way you wouldn’t have to worry about the molding?
Yes that would probably work !
@@multicolore_ thank you 😊 I think I shall try it
very useful for worldbuilding old-tech places. thanks for subtitles!!
Thank youuuu...I could be here the whole day watching your ideas
thank you 🥰
Your dandelion talk, made me SO happy.
Dandelions are my favorite flowers. Definatly.
Mmmm...a good thing can be putting laurel leaves into the Jars ..they keep them free from bugs ..❤
oh that's interesting !!
Also, what were the two ingredients that you added after straining out the dandelion petals? I know one is baking soda, but what was the first? I’m really intrigued and want to try this. I live in northern Minnesota, so we to have a crap ton of dandelions and other wildflowers that I would love to use.
they are alum and soda ash :)
@@multicolore_ 😊 thank you
Such a beautiful presentation thank you for sharing
this is so cool! thank you for making this video. also I love your accent and your voice is really pretty 💙
I love this! So much fun and informative at the same time! Thank you!
Thank you so much, your comment motivates me 💛
love it
This is such a creative idea! I love making homemade paper from scraps and leafs and such, I'm so gonna use this method to add pigment to my paper, I've used tie-dye but natural dandelions are such an amazing idea !
wow that's a nice hobby :) I make paper out of paper scraps and organic materials too!
I've tried putting these pigments on the surface of the sheets before pressing them, it wasn't sticking enough. Maybe you could try mixing the pigments with the pulp, it might give you better results !
@@multicolore_ thank you! it really is a great way to save paper and to have fun. im turning them into custom sketchbooks and i willl defentily try to mix my pigments into my pulp :)
I just loooove how natural is your storytelling
thank you !!
🤟 yes finally I've been looking for this video all morning thank you🥳
Where was this channel before, so cozy to watch, keep it up :)
ahaha thank you, i'll try putting up more videos :)
Loved loved how you explain everything in detail ❤ waiting for more 🍀
Thank you for this, I will be making more !!
Great video…..entertaining & informative….. you make the pigment seem an easy thing to achieve . I hope to see more from you. Thank you.,😊
i love your comment, thank you :) it makes me want to make more videos !!
Plz, write components in the video or in the description.
Amazing!
😃
Thank you from Atlanta, Georgia, USA :) I love your thoughtfulness of the bees, plants, etc. Your chickens love you too, which is awesome. Learned a lot. Also, really appreciate the tip about preventing mold. You're awesome. I wish you would do series videos on the paint pigments you make where you show artwork you make using the pigments made in your videos. Keep up the GREAT WORK
wow thank you so much for your beautiful message !! This gives me a lot of energy ☀ i'm actually working on educational videos on ecoresponsible art. So stay tuned, there is more coming ;)
Ahhh so refreshing to see a fellow Quebecer, I'm learning lake pigments, thank you for this video!!!
thanks for your comment and your support !
wow !!! I love it !!!❤❤❤
🥰
Thank you for sharing your talents and your knowledge with us. It's a lot of work! You can do it! 🎉❤
You're right, it is a lot of work making these videos ! I'm not giving up yet :) thank you for your encouragements
I love your energy! This video was so great you deserve more views!
thank you !! Hopefully people will watch this more and we all get to be eco artists ;)
I'm so glad that I found you 🤩💛 I love your style 😂🎉 new sub and also new to this subject 😍 but not new to wildcrafting. The dandy is my favorite flower to make tea, jelly, syrup and soap with😊
Happy to read this ! 🌼 and yes, it's crazy how many things we can make with dandelions, i love that !!
I love your video. Hope you make more videos 👍🤓👏👏👏
i'm working on it! :)
Brilliant thanks for useful video.
thank you for your support ❤ i'm glad it's helpful !
5:49 I bet this would be so satisfying to chuck/splat onto smooth, solid ground, like concrete ✨
damn right
Merci beaucoup pour cette vidéo. I made some dandelion lake pigment. Beautiful!
Great Mam you really did a informative work for all of us
you are so cool well done
thanks 😎
very interesting. I aslo love the part you shared your failed attempts, haha. very informative.
thank you for the feedback ! I try being transparent and help people not have to go through all the mistakes I've experienced 😅
3:13 bless you
thank you 😂
Dandelions are a valuable herb. Not a weed.
indeed !! they are the most awesome ! With all their nutritive and medicinal properties too
awesome video- excited to subscribe... now you are just 3 away from 1000!!!
Yes I made it !! It is so exciting. I love your videos too :)
Hey great content here. What first ingredient did you use for preservation? I am challenging myself to understand. Thank you in advance 🍃🌻💛
I use no preservatives with pigments. The best is to put the freshly grinded pigment in a small container (with the less air possible, not like in the video), and let the container opened (without the lid), away from the sun, in a cool-dry place, for about 10 days. And after that you can put the lid on top :)
Great video! I would be interested in the video about fabric paint, that you are mentioning at the end of this video, but unfortunelly I can´t find it on you´re chanell. Is it somewhere, where i can watch it? Or do you have any sources about the technique from which I can learn it? Thank you
Hello, thank you for sharing your knowledge with all of us. Really appreciate it.
I would love to hear your views in how eco-friendly actually is to use alum and if is really necessary to use it on the process and if so, why ? Is it possible to work without it?
I'm trying to create pigments fully biodegradable, that's why.
Thank you so much 🙏
Hey there
Alum is something I'm having myself a lot of questions about too. I've made many hours of research on that salt and what's sure, it's that it's not 100% ecoresponsible.
As an extreme environmentalist, and as an artist who tries to be 100% ecological, I try finding alternatives to using alum. I'm preparing an online course right now on the various possibilities of the tannin and iron reaction (making homemade iron solutions of course).
As for the pigments, I believe that the most ecofriendly would be mineral pigments foraged localy in a responsible way.
For now I don't know any alternative to lake pigments made out of plants. I'm still digging.
As for the biodegradable aspect, I believe alum is biodegradable. It is already found in soils and in sea water in various quantities. There's even plants that are alum bioaccumulators like symploccos or plantain.
It is naturally found in nature. Tho the alum we buy now tho is indeed synthetic.
I believe that some ways of using alum is more ecofriendly than others (making alum pastes, reusing alum baths, disposing the water safely).
Honestly I could go on hours talking about alum. It's a chemical used tremendously in the world of natural dyes, and we don't talk about it's nuances enough.
🌼🌼🌼🌼
🌻🌿🎨😇
Creative video! I subscribed to your channel 🙂 Hope you grow your channel to a thousand subscribers and more! 🌼
thank yoouu !! I hope that too 😊
Thanks
most welcomed ;)
The bug in the pot before the lid was placed to boil 🥲
didn't see that one 🥺
you can also make wine with dandelions
indeed !
use only dye pans, bowls etc for dyeing. Please don't use alum in your regular coffee grinder.
You're right ! All my material (pans, spoons, grinder, bowls..) are strictly used for my art. Using some metal salts, metal solution (like iron solutions) or even venemous plants can contaminate the containers and is not the best for us to eat in afterwards. Thanks for aknowledging this, I should mention it in my next videos to raise awareness !
4:43 NO I SAW A LIL BIGGY IN THE POT!! Rip fly high buggy 🕊️
:(
Have you tried goldenrod? It gives even a deeper yellow.
Yes I've tried with goldenrod! It's an amazing color indeed.
Very nice with natural dyes too.
Any advice we my mixture is not bunbling when I add washing soda?
This is so sick
yeeaahh
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Are you sure the color is coming from the petals and not just from the pollen?
i've been making pigments with leaves, barks, flowers, roots, mushrooms and fruits, and they all bring color & don't all carry pollen so i believe it's really the color from the petals :)
What is the use of the pigment
You can use them in many ways : making wax crayons, paints, make-up, pastels and more.
I made a video on how to use the pigments to make a natural watercolor paint.
Here is the link to the video : th-cam.com/video/IhMYKP5IG7c/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=multicolore_
@@multicolore_ thank you was really interesting and informative video
@@rohitkoli6762 just to add that if you want to make make up, I believe it's best to use mineral pigments!
@@multicolore_ Hello, with respect, I'm confused that you say the pigment can be used in Make-up, since it was mixed with Aluminum, which is highly toxic. Very interesting to see your process, thanks for sharing!
@@elisemiller13 Hi, you're right, that's why i said in the comment above that mineral pigments should be used for makeup ;)
Which ingredients did you use, Sodium carbonate, and what?
Alum
Put the ingredients in the comments
amei os soluços hahahaha
obrigado :) autenticidade
Super! Mais c’est quoi la poudre que vous mettez dans la casserole svp? 😉
de l'alun et du carbonate de sodium
That looks like sage green
Pissenlit😄
Wait. Are you saying that people hate dandelions on the other side of the ocean? Why? O.o
Here in Italy we use their leaves for kitchen, the roots, if correctly treated are an alternative to the coffee and in general it's good for the diuresis and liver.
Here in America most people don't know you can eat dandelions or that they're good for you, people call them weeds and kill them whenever they can
@@bigbird4481 I must admit that it has one of the most bitter flavors I have ever tasted....
But then again, what's good for our health tastes bad 😅😅😅
@@TitusGalliusMontanus
Can you elaborate a bit more on using them for caffeine?
Lawns. That is why
Can someone tell me how to remove slug and snail trail off dandelions please?
Wash them, with water 🙂
Soup
Couldn’t you just dry the dandelions and crush them up directly? Then mix it with linseed oil?
when you have actual bits of dandelion in your pigment, not strained or anything, it will not create smooth paint. ive tried this before and it did not turn out so well bc the tiny bits of dandelion would clump up at a certain spot.
@@JadeMelendres-qw4hc I was thinking about drying them. Crushing them up and then passing it through a fine mesh sieve to collect the powder. Shouldn’t this work?
@@joshuakunda6708 ermmmm u could try. Ive done the exact same thing that u were thinking off but with coffee grounds. I dehydrated them, put it in a coffee grinder, sifted in, put it in the grinder again, and sifted it for the last time, still got bits of coffee grounds in my paint when i added this coffee powder into paint binder. but perhaps dandelions is different. maybe itll become incredibly fine without any trouble.
@@JadeMelendres-qw4hc interesting I’m an artist from Africa so I’m trying to dabble in natural paints and pigments. Did you mull the paint with a muller after adding your binding agent?
@@joshuakunda6708 yes i did mull the paint
I'm a bit sceptical to ingest these, as I've seen slugs and snails on them?
Wash them lol
Extra protein!
Very interesting! Although technically, as I just learned from a video by a natural ink maker, we should call it a dye, not a pigment. According to her, pigments are from minerals, are not water soluble and don't contain carbon, i.e. no plants. Anything made from a plant, therefore, is a dye.

Wow that's such a nice link, thanks for sharing !
Yes, inks are made from dyes. But a pigment made from dyes is actually called a "lake pigment" :)
Eat them
I should, they would give me bunch of nutrients
Do you know how to make a pigment thats not drab and brown?
Oh yes ! it all depends on the chosen plant. Some pigments give very bright colors like cosmos orange (orange), red cabbage (blue) and even lichens fermentations (pinks & purples)!
It is true tho that many plants will give yellow-brownish colors. I believe this is usually because of the flavanoids compounds within the plants structures, which are found in a wide variety of plants.
