HOT ! Bird of Paradise Batik Halter Crop Top

The Bird of Paradise design is hand stamped with hot wax and layers of hand-applied dyes! We choose the colors for the bird (unless you specify otherwise) and you choose the background color. 

These are SUPER stretchy! Wonderful for yoga, acro, pole, dance, etc. Slim fit designed for movement. Will not shift when you\'re inverted. 92% cotton, 8% stretch. Sewn with cotton thread.The wax creates a resist for the dye, resulting in beautiful crackles of color.We make these to order, so you can choose your background color, size, etc. Every single piece is batiked a little differently. The basic design stays the same from shirt to shirt but details like dots and splatters vary!Please note that since these are made to order, we will ship 1-2 weeks after receiving the order. Batiked designs take multiple days to complete.They are created using the same professional fiber-reactive dyes we use for all of our garments. You can expect machine washable, dryer safe, fade-proof clothing for years to come! Don\'t see exactly what you\'re dreaming of? Contact me and we can make whatever size/color/design you want! Multiples & batches are our speciality. Group rates available! Quantity discounts, too! Just ask.*************************************ABOUT OUR DYESFiber reactive (“low impact”) dyes have a higher than average absorption rate (around 80% depending on the color). Less water is required in the rinsing process, and less dye runs off in the water. These dyes have a lower impact on the environment than other synthetic dyes.Low-impact dyes do not contain heavy metals (like chrome, copper and zinc), and they don’t require toxic chemical mordants to fix them to the fiber. We use soda ash, a cousin of baking soda! Colors on your screen will not represent a perfect match to each dye job. Hand dyed fabrics are created anew with each garment so colors are approximate. That’s the true beauty of hand dyed!________________________________Take a class from us! See our online courses here: https://waxonstudio.teachable.comIn Asheville?
