We have two batik making kits.

One is suitable for trying out batik on paper and the other is used for batik on cotton or any other fabric.

To start with you could use an old pan to melt your wax in and then when you are feel ready to take the plunge, I recommend a waxpot or an electric frying pan with a thermostat.

Because the kits include soda ash and wax we can't post these kits out to countries outside the UK (as they may be stopped at customs)

For more tips, have a look at our batik instructions page.

This kit is ideal for the beginner and anyone who wants to have a go at batik. To try batik on paper all you will need is something to melt your wax in (a small old saucepan will do) some paper and a paintbrush. You can try all sorts of different papers - tissue paper, rice paper, silk papers and newsprint all work well.

  •  3 x 10 grams pots of bright procion dyes which can be used as they are or combined together to give a wide range of colours,
