The DIY kit makes it easy for you to design a stylish face mask at home
Batik Boutique's latest DIY Kit for Shibori Face Masks is the perfect and productive way to channel your creative energy. Originating from ancient Japan, Shibori is a traditional hand-dyeing technique similar to tie-dyeing. The kit comes with three different face masks and all the tools you need to become the artist of your own Shibori masterpiece.
Here is how to design your Shibori face masks:
- Prepare all your materials from your kit and lay them out on a clean workspace.
- Time to get creative! Tie, fold or bind your fabric face masks with the popsicle sticks and rubber bands provided. All the different creases and folds in the fabric will make a truly unique design. Watch Batik Boutique's video tutorials for inspiration.
- Add water to your powdered dye and shake until the pigment is dissolved. Then experiment and apply your dyes onto your face masks as desired.
- Place your dyed face masks in a resealable plastic bag and leave them to dry overnight. Once dry, remove all rubber bands and popsicle sticks, and rinse to remove excess dye. And there you have it, your one-of-a-kind Shibori face mask.
