Why Choose Our Cyanotype Kit?

  • Ideal for Beginners and Artists Alike: No experience needed with this A5 cyanotype kit. So, simply use natural sunlight and everyday items to create art.
  • High-Quality, Archival Paper: We’ve chosen Italian-textured, artists paper for lasting prints that preserve the vibrant blue tones for years.
  • Perfect for Display: Because each A5 cyanotype sheet has a small border, it makes them ideal for framing and showcasing.
  • Eco-Friendly and Easy: Create prints using only sunlight and water—no darkroom or special equipment required.

What You Need at Home:

Once your cyanotype has developed, simply rinse with water and hang it to dry—it’s that easy! So, all you need to get started is fresh running water and a place to hang your prints for drying.

I’ve used A5, A6 and Mini cyanotype paper from The Wild Darkroom on a number of occasions and I love it! I am always impressed by its high quality and results.
Having tried other brands from Amazon, I highly recommend using the product directly from here...there’s no comparison!
