Glue Batik




 Here's a fun one! Glue Batik,
Similar to the wax resistant dying technique.

This glue batik is more for kids.  You use glue instead of wax that would be too hot for them to be careful enough with.

Was thinking we could have the kids do their hand prints.


This is an easy process.  You make the designs with the glue (let it dry) on a piece of cloth (could even do on a t-shirt) and use the colors of paint that you want on them around the design.  With this you could water them down for a washed out effect and even soak them in water when your done.  For brighter, I would just water them a little bit so they spread out on the cloth better and then let it dry like that.  Then you can peel the glue off! Glue Batik!
