How to Make a Batik T-Shirt

[HamandMar]

does it need to be a certain type of glue? and can i dye the whole t shirt the same colour, instead of the dripping effect?

@HamandMar Thanks for your comment! Any white Elmer's glue, like tacky or school glue, will work for this project, and, yes, you can dye the shirt one color.

can I use a black t shirt?

@HamandMar Thanks for your comment! For best results, we recommend a white shirt.

Thanks for your comment! We found that 100% cotton was the most effective for this project, but a 50/50 blend also worked well.

Does the shirt have to be a 50/50 blend like you do with some appliques? What kind of material is this shirt?
