Technique Tuesday Wax Paper Resist
As part of the "Swap and Share" in Fiji a few demonstrators shared some fun techniques. I was able to share these in my Technique Tuesday class this month. The first was Wax Paper Resist. This is a very old technique, but with a new twist – shared by France Martin
