Botanical Ink and Quill Pen Making!

  • The Miner's Bazaar 235 East California Street Jacksonville, OR, 97530 United States (map)

Write letters, write poems, sketch and doodle and paint with materials your hands have crafted with nature’s abundance. Join Lauren Kemple of Backyard Wildcraft, for a morning of smooshing and simmering plant parts into exquisite colors! We’ll make gorgeous black ink from oak galls (those funny balls that grow on oak trees) and one other color of locally sourced ink. Turkey feathers that have been dropped by local wild turkeys will become our quill pens. You’ll get hands on learning, handouts, two inks to take home, a quill pen of your making, and a journal for taking notes. Class also includes one drink.
