DIY Batik Lisbon Fabric Painting Kit
8x8 Inch Pre Drawn Wax Design, Paint, Brush and Palette
Details
A beautiful, unique alternative to paint by numbers - instead of numbers on canvas, you paint with vibrant dyes on soft cotton fabric guided by a pre-drawn wax design. The wax acts as a natural resist, keeping every color perfectly contained in its own section. No bleeding, no mess, no mistakes, and no art experience required. Each kit is completely self-contained - everything you need is included, nothing extra to buy. Suitable for all ages from 4 to 99, it is one of the most relaxing, screen-free creative activities you will ever try. Each finished piece fits perfectly in any standard 8x8-inch frame, ready to hang or give as a gift the moment it dries.
Directions
It's easy to do — no art experience required! Watch our step-by-step video tutorials at youtube.com/colorcruiser. Paint within the wax lines, let dry for 15-20 minutes, and your masterpiece is ready to frame. Watch the paint spread and stop at the lines. Very satisfying.
Completed pieces fit perfectly in any standard 8x8-inch frame, available at any home goods or craft store.
Pro tip: Use less water for more vibrant colors. A little paint goes a long way!
Did You Know
Paint the pastel-colored streets of Lisbon with this one-of-a-kind DIY batik fabric painting kit — no experience needed, everything included. A perfect souvenir for Lisbon travelers, a unique gift for anyone who has fallen in love with Portugal, and a stunning piece of travel-inspired wall art. For kids ages 4 and up and adults. Relaxing team building, date night and family night event. Lisbon is one of the oldest cities in Europe — older than Rome by several centuries. Built across seven hills overlooking the Tagus River, it is famous for its iconic blue-and-white hand-painted tiles (azulejos), its melancholic music called fado, and its legendary yellow trams that rattle through the narrow hilly streets. In 2023 and 2024, Lisbon was voted one of the world's top travel destinations. Painting Lisbon is like bottling a little piece of that golden, nostalgic city.
About Batik
Batik is a 2,000-year-old textile art form from Southeast Asia, recognized by UNESCO as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
We grew up visiting family in Malaysia and fell in love with batik painting as children — that is why we founded Color Cruiser: to bring this beautiful tradition to families and art lovers across the United States.
