KREUL Batik Textile Dye

Knots, folds, dipping – batik effects are unique and painted textile inspires all DIY lovers.

With the KREUL Batik Textile Dye, creatives can paint their textile with the shibori technique, they dip them or just refresh the colors again. Usual textile becomes unique and old things can be recycled in strong colors. Whether it’s pillowcases, tablecloths, textile bags, t-shirts and shawls or bed linen, in the right color combination batik dyed fabrics are a real eye-catcher. We distinguish between different fabric-dyeing techniques. Shibori: patterns are created by tying, folding and knots. You can use rubber bands, cable ties or parcel cords. Wax batik: liquid wax is applied to white fabric. The fabric gets painted. After drying, the wax is ironed out and the white patterns become visible. Dip-dye: the fabric is dipped into the paint and it rests there for some time, the paint is absorbed, and it results in a wonderful uneven edge. Batik techniques not only look good, but they are also fun: first coloring and stirring in the pot and at the end the surprise which pattern has emerged.
