What is Batik ?
Batik is an amazing and ancient method of color dyeing. Technically, batik is the process of applying dyes to porous surfaces. Historically, batik has been around for many hundreds of years. Esthetically, batik produces some of the most beautiful art in the world. However, batik is not easy and involves a very labor intensive and complex process with many hours of back breaking hard work.
Firstly, to create Batik is to design a pattern of what you would like to create. Then the design will be drawn with special wax using a tool known as "Canting" . Wax acts like a barrier to the color dyes and allows a color to remain while the remaining non-waxed fabric absorbs the dye. Most of the time the wax is then removed by soaking the fabric in hot water. If there is remain wax on the fabric , it will remove easily in a warm wash cycle.
