Fabric Painting, Dyeing & Surface Decoration Books - "Hand-Dyeing Tissue Paper" Gill Barrett NEW

"Hand-Dyeing Tissue Paper" Gill Barrett NEW Wet-strength tissue paper can be dyed, resisted, stamped and painted just like fabric to create an enormous range of stunning results, perfect for making unique papercraft items. Within this practical and inspiring book, discover:

Step by step instructions for a range of 10 varied techniques including dip dyeing, pole wrapping (Arashi Shibori), clamping (Itajime Shibori), tie dye, wax resist and more. You can also use these techniques on a lightweight fabric like Ponge 5 silk, for similar effects.

The chance results that make these techniques magical: the organic blooms of merged inks, the unique splatters of dripped ink, the symmetry of undulating lines and the variable inky washes of resist patterns.

A range of vibrant media including watercolour ink, acrylic ink, fabric dye and more. 10 inspiring projects including tealight holders, notecards, bookmarks, storage boxes and vibrant wall art - or use the techniques for your own ideas.

This book is as beautiful as it is practical. Dye, paint and colour like fabric; craft like paper.
