Batik

Batiks:
what exactly is Batik?
Batik is a cloth that is traditionally made using a manual wax-resist dyeing technique.
Batiks are exotic and inspiring and are amazing to make.
The first time I made Batik was when I was 14. I had just taken Textiles as a subject that I wanted to study at GCSE and was beginning to learn new textile skills.
I loved making batik, I made a big flower using the wax and then painted the untouched fabric using pink and green pains. I was so proud of the finishing piece! considering it was the first time I ever did it...
This particular batik piece below is by :

Princess Mirah Batiks - Arabian Spice

It is a beautiful Piece. I love the colours that it has been created with. It looks really luxurious!
