Indian Wooden Block Set - Diddley 'pick & mix' 5 for £12.50

We have a whole load of mini Indian wooden printing blocks!  These little ethnic blocks are perfect for printing onto all surfaces ( especially clay! ) Perfect to print  in-between blocks or just really nice for gift tags.

Blocks all vary in size but approx 2 cm to 5 cm.

We will pick you a varied selection of 5 different blocks- The collection is mostly little Paisleys & decorative designs.

Our Indian wooden printing blocks are hand carved on a Fairtrade project in Jaipur, India and are made using a sustainable wood known as Sheesham. The designs are traced and carved onto the wood. The blocks are then left to soak in mustard oil for several days, this preserves the wood making it non-absorbent.

All of our wooden printing blocks can be used to hand print your own Fabric, Paper, Card & Clay! It's important when printing fabric to use a fabric paint/ medium so the design is totally washable. When printing onto paper and card you can use a wide variety of paints/inks. Ink pads aren't always wet enough to use with the printing blocks so we advise using paint. Use a square piece of sponge or a dabber to apply your paint/dye/medium and a foam printing mat (or something soft) underneath the item you are printing on this will ensure you get a good print!

To clean your blocks between colours just wipe with a dry rag. When finished, be sure to wash your wooden block under the tap with warm water and scrub all the paint out of the design with a nail brush. Then dry well!
