Wood Blocks

Here is our line of beautiful, collectible wooden printing blocks. They are hand carved in India. Block printing is a centuries old method for imprinting fabric, paper or whatever! We love using them in conjunction with our batik or mixed media pieces. They are not used in wax like our copper tjap stamps. Instead, use these to directly print with paint onto your surface. Your best results will come from using a dense foam mat (or thick layer of newspaper) underneath the surface you are printing onto.

For a wonderful intro to block printing, watch talented textile artist Jamie Malden, the owner of Colouricious (the UK’s leading source for textile art and crafts) in the YouTube video. WATCH HERE
