Today, I waxed over the dyed area of the tank I blogged about yesterday. Then, once the wax had hardened, I placed the tank into a plastic bin where I had poured about 1 1/2 cups of black dye. At first, I was trying to avoid getting dye on the front, then I decided to crackle the wax and dye both the front and back to get a more interesting look. Here is a picture of the front:
The back is a solid black. I have to admit, I really like how it turned out! Yesterday, it looked a little garish to me, even though I like bright colors. Today, with the black veining, I think it has definitely become more visually interesting! I know I will be doing more batik clothing in the coming months!
