What will you capture with your solar paper from the subscription box?

[@rebeccawest8973]

Thank you! I am glad the sheet is in there. I’ll be using some flowers I pressed with the A&O press in the fall!

[@ArcherandOlive]

Did a little research on this technique. Had quite an interesting history. I’m a civil engineer & always wondered why building plans were called “blueprints…” this is why! Based on my research I ordered some transparent “overhead projector” paper for inkjet printers & plan to print some of to use with this solar paper. I’m hoping the paper will show gradients and varying tones like the old fashioned way of processing cyanotype does😊. If anyone has tried using this can you please let me know how your results turned out? Thanks!

[@ArcherandOlive]

Oh that sounds amazing, we would love to see the results. If you post on social media please tag us at @archerandolive!

Just unboxed my box this morning and very glad for this tutorial! How much sun/heat is required? For example, does it need to be above 60F to work. Thank you again for another wonderful and delight box!

[@ArcherandOlive]

No heat/sun is required - you can use this on a cloudy day. It will just need a little longer expose (up to 20 minutes).

[@Seaselfshine]

Oh awesome! Looking forward to playing with it!!

[@ArcherandOlive]

Yey I hope you enjoy it!

[@brendachapman7686]
