It depends what sort of solution and what sort of chromatography.

Assuming it's something simple like ink you'd usually use a piece of paper or filter paper. You'd apply a spot of your analyte (the solution being analysed) at a short distance from the bottom of the paper, then put the paper in a beaker or similar container with a small amount of ethanol, water or another solvent in the bottom. Ensure that the solvent does not go above the level of the spot of analyte.

The solvent will be drawn up through the paper by capillary action, and will draw the different parts of the analyte with it and deposit them at different distances from the initial spot. Stop the experiment by removing the paper from the beaker once the solvent front (the horizontal line where the highest wet part of the paper is) reaches the top of the paper.
