Woodblock printing is one of the printing techniques used by people interested in handicrafts today. This printing technique, applied with a woodblock printing mold, is also called wood printing. You can color your daily clothes, fabric bags, bags, furniture, and accessories using this printing technique. With the enjoyable and productive woodblock printing process, you can also showcase your creativity.

When performing woodblock printing, you may need some tools. Woodblock printing molds, shaped with special knives, are one of the basic materials you will need for printing. When choosing among wood printing molds, you should consider the dimensions of the surface you will apply the print. Otherwise, the pattern on the printing mold will not be printed completely. It is also useful to pay attention to the pattern on the mold when choosing a woodblock mold.

Another essential you will need for the printing process is paint. It is ideal to use fabric paints to print wood on fabric. Fabric paint, which is a type of acrylic paint, supports the permanence of the printing process.
