Gold and Yellow Batik Napkins

Sat, 28 Nov 2009 15:31:50 -0800

This set of four cotton napkins, hand batiked in a gold and yellow leaves pattern, is perfect for your holiday table - or as gift to your host.

They measure approximately 15" x 15" and are a very sturdy cotton.

They're very easy to take care of - you can machine wash and dry them on any temperature setting and the color will not wash out. For everyday use, I fold them when I take them out of the dryer. For special occasions, I iron on cotton setting with steam or sprayed with water.

Batik Baby Pants

Sat, 28 Nov 2009 14:42:18 -0800

I batiked a single white flower on the bottom of the left leg of these cotton pull-on pants, then dyed the background a rich red. I then hand-painted multi-color details on the flower, leaves, and stem.

It's a sturdy, cotton rib-knit with a covered elastic waist band and finished hems.

While they match the corsage romper, sold separately, they would look great on their own paired with a white, yellow or orange t-shirt.

It is a size 18 months, but runs a little small, so please take a look at the measurements:

Waist - unstretched 16", stretched 26"

Length - 13.75"

Inseam 9"

I batiked a corsage of two white flowers on a rich red background. I then hand-painted multi-colored accents on the flowers, leaves, and stems. The back is solid red.

The fabric is a soft knit cotton. It runs small - this is size 18 months, but please take a look at the measurements.

Sleeve 10"

Chest 18"

Length 16" (from shoulder to bottom)

A one-of-a-kind gift. While I love batiking these flower corsages, and have put them on lots of my work, like flowers in nature, no two are ever alike.

Mon, 23 Nov 2009 06:03:27 -0800

They are a size 12months, but they run small, closer to a 6 month size.

They're very easy to take care of - you can machine wash and dry them in any temperature setting and the color will not wash out. For everyday use, I fold them when I take them out of the dryer. For special occasions, I iron on cotton setting with steam or sprayed with water

Jewish New Year Cards

Fri, 07 Aug 2009 17:54:06 -0700

Mounted on green cardstock and a 5-1/2" x 4-1/4" white card is a print of a collage - a shofar - made with bits of my own batiks. The message below the shofar says "Wishing you peace, health and happiness." The inside of the card is blank.

This pack of six cards, with white envelopes, is packaged in a resealable poly bag. These bags are truly resealable - the adhesive is on the outside of the bag, not the flap, so when you remove or put back the cards, they don't get stuck on the adhesive, which can damage the card.
