Keep that summer vacation feeling all year long with beautiful batiks you make yourself! This 2000-year-old art form automatically brings to mind all the exotic places that ancient batiks have been found—Egypt, India, China, Africa, Bali, Java and the Middle East. Wear them as sarongs, use them as wall hangings, placemats and tablecloths, or sew them into handbags, pillowcases and more.
RoseMary will teach you to create your own designs using wax, then how to apply layers of colors, and in what order. The technique can also be applied to paper—perfect for scrapbooking or creating stationery.
