Unleash your inner artist and create beautiful, bespoke textiles with our Wood Block Printing Set 3: Heart, Scallop & Flower. This set contains three intricately carved wooden blocks, ready to transform ordinary fabrics into unique, hand-printed masterpieces.
Inspired by the traditional art of wood block printing, our sets offer a modern twist on an age-old craft. Why not create your own napkins, cushion covers, bandanas, or even delightful bunting? The possibilities are as endless as your imagination.
Right now, hand-blocked Indian fabrics are incredibly stylish. With our hand-carved wooden block sets, crafted in India, you can easily replicate this sought-after look at home.
Supporting Artisans in India
By purchasing these traditional wooden printing blocks, you are directly supporting 20 skilled block makers from Farrukhabad and Jaipur. These artisans meticulously hand-carve our designs, using skills passed down through generations since the Mughal era. Their craft provides crucial income, particularly after the recent impact on tourism.
When our contact reached out, I jumped at the chance to collaborate. It felt important to support these talented individuals and bring their beautiful work to you.
The designs I've chosen blend traditional motifs with more contemporary shapes. They're works of art in their own right and look fabulous on display when not in use!
What's Included
This Set 3 contains three traditionally carved wooden blocks:
- Large Polka Dot Heart: Approximately 7cm high
- Striped Scallop: Approximately 6.5cm wide
- Flower: Approximately 6cm wide
The blocks are carved from hard wood, and the printing surfaces are painted white for clear design definition. Cleaning is easy – simply wash with soap and water and allow to dry naturally.
Getting Started
Want to learn how to print with these blocks? We have a free YouTube tutorial to guide you through the process of textile printing with wood blocks!
For best results, we recommend using our textile paints, available separately. These blocks look fantastic printed on plain fabrics, or on our cotton gingham and stripe fabrics too.
