The Permission 2 Play group
has gathered together to create
Soy Wax Batik on Fabric
Soy Wax Batik Fabric......Class Samples
Soy Wax
Found Objects.....for stamping wax on fabric
Potato Mashers.....always a favorite!
Love that PVC pipe for stamping wax!
After a quick demo....
the students are hot waxing
We are waxing over commercial fabrics...
light colors
After the fabrics are all waxed...
we move onto painting over the wax
We mix: 1 part paint to 2 or 3 parts water
The waxed fabric is sprayed with water
to wet it down a bit before painting...
Painting over the waxed fabric with
diluted Setacolor paint...
The waxed areas resist the paint...
This white on white commercial fabric
created its very own interesting resist...
Look closely at the crackle resist.....FUN!
By the end of class,
the room was covered in
waxed and painted fabrics!
After the fabric has completely dried,
it will be placed between paper and ironed
to set the paint.
Then, washed in a HOT washing machine
and dried.
Many thanks to all of my classroom helpers...
You are the best!

ReplyDeleteWhat fun! Thanks again for more inspiration.
ReplyDeleteWhat great results!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a blast everyone seemed to be having!!! Making beautiful fabrics and that crackle produced with the white on white fabric was awesome!!! What are you planning on making with the fabric created??
ReplyDeleteYes, the students were giddy with excitement and truly enjoyed playing with the hot wax. I plan to use my hot wax fabrics for abstract quilts and also zipper bags.
