Fun School Friday - 10/23

We tried a fall craft today for school.  (Actually we had to start it yesterday.)  This is called batik.  You draw your picture with glue on fabric and let it dry.  The boys traced a picture I had since the fabric was so thin.



(Nicolas did the leaf and Alex did the Jack-o-lantern.)


Then, when the glue is dry, you paint the picture.  The glue will resist the paint.  Then put black paint all around the outside.  After the paint is dry, you wash the fabric to wash off the glue and you have a finished product.
