SKELETON LEAVES FROM RUBBER TREE



I made these pictures of SKELETON LEAVES from rubber tree (Ficus elastica) purchased from The Container Store. Skeleton leaves are prepared by soaking fresh leaves in bleached water for a few weeks, then rubbing the green substance off gently without damaging the delicate network of veins.
