Let your kids learn about the traditional art of fabric hand block printing with this DIY Block Printing Kit. With the included paisley block print, fabric paint, sponge, and dupatta, kids can learn how the block printing technique is used to design garments.

Using this crafty DIY Block Printing Kit, paint the Paisley design that is carved onto the Sheesham wood block with the provided pink acrylic paint – or any acrylic paint of your own if you want to create a colourful decoration.

Firmly press the painted wood block onto the dupatta and carefully repeat the process if you feel like the colour hasn’t been transferred on to the fabric. Once you get the hang of it, you can go ahead and create block printings of your own accord on other garments, gift cards, bookmarks, etc. and gift them to your friends and family.

Perfect to get kids away from screens for a while and as a group activity for children during birthday parties. Makes for a thoughtful birthday gift or party favours too!

The Paisley design is one of the most ancient designs of India. Its origin roots back to Persia; the twisted teardrop design first appeared in India during the Mughal times between the years of 1526-1764 and gradually, the design started appearing on textiles and garments. Before soon, the paisley design was everywhere.

    The product images on our website may differ from the products you receive due to variations in electronic screens settings (computer/laptop/tablet/Smartphones).
