• This plan includes the M Course, where you can choose from a tenugui (35cm x 98cm), a tapestry (45cm x 90cm), or a noren (curtain curtain) to experience the traditional Japanese craft of batik (wax-resist dyeing), from drawing to dyeing and drying. No artistic talent necessary—even children are welcome! A batik dyeing artisan will provide careful instruction. Choose from a variety of pre-drawn designs, or create your own original design. Use a waxed brush to trace the design, then don boots, an apron, and gloves. After dyeing, remove the wax to complete the project. The areas painted with wax remain white, revealing the subtle shading and cracked patterns of the wax, creating a simple yet profound batik piece. Your finished piece will take approximately 90-120 minutes to complete, and you can take it home the same day. ~ What to expect on the day ~ 1. We have a large selection of sketches available, so you can choose your favorite. Original designs are also welcome. 2. Once you've decided on a design, use a waxed brush to trace it. Dip the brush in heated, melted wax and trace the design. 3. The cotton fabric with the waxed design is then immersed in dye to dye it. Enjoy your own dyeing experience. 4. Soaping: The dyed cotton fabric is placed in a pot of boiling water to remove only the wax from the fabric. 5. The cotton fabric with the wax removed is washed in water, dehydrated in a spin dryer, and then dried to complete the process. 6. On the day, you can take home your finished piece. Please take home a precious memory of your time in Kyoto.
