Beutel batiken
Anleitung No. 1602Batiks
Bring 1 litre of water to the boil and let it cool down a little. In a large container, mix the ingredients as described in the package instructions Batik paint. In our example we have used the Javana Batik-Textile paint „Cool Blue" .Tie or knot the cotton bag in the style you want. You can use a string, cable ties or similar or knot the bag in the desired place. It is important that you tie up the places firmly. At these points the bag will now take little or no colour and the typical beautiful patterns on the dyed fabric will appear
Dip the laced bag into the paint bucket as far as it should take on paint. Use clothes pegs to fix the bag to the edge of your bucket. After 1 hour the bag can be removed from the bucket. Then rinse the excess paint from the still-bound bag under warm water. Rinse it out until the water remains clear
Now you can loosen the knot or remove the ties and rinse your bag again. Now hang the bag up to dry
Stenciling
Iron the dried bag to get an optimal result at Stenciling . Place a piece of cardboard or thick foil in the bag to protect the paint from being pressed through.Now place your desired Stencil centered on the bag. As a tip , we recommend that you first check Stencil with temporary Spray glue to spray so that it cannot slip at Stenciling
With the Sponge brushes and with textile Ink Pads the bag can now be printed. After applying the ink, allow to dry for approx. 10 minutes and then iron in the wool setting for approx. 3 minutes using slightly circular movements .
Have fun trying it out!
