  • EASY TO USE: Objects that eclipse the suns light will show up in white, with the rest of the paper turning a vibrant Prussian Blue. Place a fern, flower, or other object on the special paper and set it in the sun briefly. Then rinse the paper in water and watch as a beautiful long-lasting image appears!
  • HANDS-ON FUN: Sunprinting is a great hands-on activity to do with groups. Whether it be in the classroom, in a camp, a museum workshop, birthday party or any other group setting, get people together, share ideas and play
  • VERSATILE: Layering techniques, motion, and manipulation of the paper itself are all implements in the Sunprinters toolbox. Make prints of physical objects or transfer digital images via transparency sheet
  • ART WITH THE POWER OF THE SUN: Sunprinting is based on the cyanotype process, which has been used by artists since its development in the 19th century
  • SUN-BASED SCIENCE: Sunprint paper can be used as a scientific tool. Its sensitivity to ultra-violet light lends itself to sun-based investigations. It can also be used as a measuring tool for any other UV light source, or as a photographic medium to use in scientific experiments

Description

The History of SunprintSince 1975, the Sunprint Kit has provided fun, learning, and creative stimulation for the curious of all ages. Originally developed as a teaching tool by educators at the Lawrence Hall of Science on the UC Berkeley campus. All proceeds from the sale of Sunprint Kits continue to aid our mission to inspire and foster the learning of science and mathematics for all. The SunPrint Solar Paper lets you make beautiful pictures by placing objects on the paper and exposing it to the sun. The paper undergoes a chemical change when exposed to sunlight. Save the print by soaking in water then drying. The Sunprint paper can be used for a creative, solar art project. With this paper you can also demonstrate UV blocking sunscreen by smearing sunscreen on plexiglass and exposing the paper to the sun. Use different strengths of sunscreen and see how the image has changed.Sunprints encourage an interest in the photographic process using only sun, water, and a bit of imagination.Place a fern, flower, or other object on the special paper and set it in the sun briefly. Then rinse the paper in water and watch as a beautiful long-lasting image appears!The Super Sunprint Kit contains 15 8″x12″ sheets and one acrylic overlay.Ages 6 to AdultMADE IN THE USA

I wanted to do these to frame for my new bathroom based on seeing it on the Magnolia Network and I love the outcome. The process was easy except figuring out how to keep the paper flat. Love the rich blue end result.

    • No dark room needed!
Size: 8 x 10 Inch
I stumbled across this by accident, and although it seemed a bit pricey for only being able to make 10 images, I thought this would be a fun project for my grand-daughter (age 9) to work on over the summer. I guess these kits have been around for a long time, but somehow I never knew about them...I think they are a great idea, and I had fun, too! Easy directions are on the back of the package. The kit is simple: inside of the package is the paper in a protective dark pack--don't let light hit the paper when taking out one sheet! and a thick piece of acrylic to hold the objects to be printed flat--there is an adhesive sheet protecting it that needs to be discarded first. We simply laid a large, flat piece of cardboard on the lawn in a spot where there was full sun. For the first picture, she made a simple design from pieces of torn paper to make a floral pattern...she put the print paper on the cardboard, arranged her design on top, and covered it with the acrylic. It took about two minutes for the light blue paper to turn white and then she just popped it into a dishpan full of clean water--I know now that it is best to change the water after every one or two pictures--and it slowly turned a dark blue, and ta-daa! There was the image! Pretty! From there, she tried 3-D objects (without the acrylic sheet, of course) and the one that turned out the best was a branch with fruit--the detail and depth came out great! I didn't see any refills available for the same size paper (about 8 x 10) but I was able to order a couple of 5 x 7 packs, so lots of opportunity to make more Sun Prints! I think this is a great kit for elementary school age kids (and I'm sure older kids could come up with some pretty creative uses, too) but for more than one child, with only 10 sheets, I think it would be best to have a refill on hand. In fact, if kids want to make Sun Prints with 3-D objects, the kit isn't needed at all, just save some money & purchase the paper by itself! ... show more

    • Fun!
Size: 8 x 10 Inch
I bought a pack of these papers as a fun activity while camping. They did the trick, but a few things to improve your experience: ~ If you can, buy a larger piece of plastic/glass. I used the one provided and it did its job. However, since I had to hold mine due to the wind, I ended up with prints of my fingertips along with the leaves! lol. A slightly larger piece of plastic would allow you to hold the piece without worrying about leaving your mark, so to speak. Cutting the sheets in half would also help; you can use the included plastic with no problem and you'll have more sheets. ~ Strong, unobstructed sunlight is best! We were in a bit of a shady campsite, so we had to dodge the shadows of the leaves a little bit. While it still worked, the end result would be much darker if the light were unimpeded. ~ Don't panic when you first put it into the water and see the page turn white. I hadn't done this in so long, I'd forgotten about that bit and worried that I ruined our work. Just keep soaking/rinsing the sheet and you'll see the print pop out in no time. ~ Lastly, give it time to develop. Lay the print in a flat, well-ventilated area and allow to dry undisturbed. I laid ours on the picnic table and they were dry in about an hour. Overall, I'm happy with this product. It was a neat thing to share with my nephew and I had a fun throwback to my childhood! ... show more

    • Like old fashioned blueprint paper
Size: 8 x 10 Inch
The paper worked well. It was not fogged, so the image was clear. We used a drop of hydrogen peroxide to deepen the blue, so that worked well. The exposure ranged from 2 minutes in the sun to over 15 minutes on a dark, cloudy day, It was a fun project. The paper is very thin, like old blueprints of building plans. This is fine, but I have used other cyanotype paper that was thick like watercolor paper, and it provided a more substantial print. I have no problem with this being thin, but those who are looking for paper the weight of drawing paper could be disappointed. ... show more

Size: 8 x 10 Inch
This is definitely a fun photographic process easy for all ages. I do not recommend doing this in the winter though because the sun is at an angel even at mid day. This was really fun and can be educational on early photography. The paper is about the same thickness as computer paper, which I noticed a lot of people were upset about. However it makes prints easily and I didn’t mind, you just have to put the print under some books to flatten it at the end. ... show more
