The Wax & Colour Wall Hanging
Create something beautiful with what you already have.
You don't need to be an artist. You don't need expensive equipment. And you don't need a perfectly stocked craft room.
The Wax & Colour Wall Hanging is a beginner-friendly, illustrated creative project that guides you step by step through turning simple fabric, wax and colour into a beautiful handmade wall hanging.
In around 1–2 hours, plus drying time, you'll learn an approachable wax-resist technique and create a finished piece of textile art that's completely your own.
Inside your illustrated guide you'll discover:
• A simple materials list using affordable, easy-to-find supplies
• 16 clear steps from preparing your fabric to hanging the finished piece
• How to sketch a simple design — even if you don't consider yourself artistic
• How to apply wax and build colour
• How to use texture, broken colour and negative space
• Practical safety guidance and troubleshooting tips
• Three additional design ideas to try next: The Moon, The Rain and The Wild Leaf
• A bonus challenge to help you begin developing your own designs
Perfect for complete beginners, curious makers, relaxing creative time, handmade gifts, or anyone who wants to explore creating pieces they could eventually sell.
The beauty of this project is that perfection isn't the goal. Uneven lines, unexpected marks and variations become part of the character of your finished piece.
Start with simple materials.
Finish with something you can proudly say:
“I made that.”
