Humble potato print

Now I know this is probably a little childish and reminiscent of being at school and aged four, but I think there is nothing wrong with reliving your childhood experiences and getting your print on! Sometimes you just need to grab what you've got available to get crafty and the humble potato is always a good one. Fry it, boil it, bake it, roast it or use it to print with, such a versatile veg :0)

This is pretty self explanatory, so just cut away to your hearts content, shape those potatoes how you want, grab some paint, paper and what do you know, you have yourself a ready made print factory! When you look close up it creates some pretty amazing textures too.

Here's some I did earlier. I think these patterns/colour combo's would look great on fabric... maybe for next time.
