Very pretty... My class done this in Arts and Crafts class, but at that time we are only allowed to draw stuff with candle... Sort of like the wax resist technique...

Where do you buy the tjap? They dont even sell it in North Sumatra...
(here in Indonesia, its cap... but other countries pronounce it as 'tjap' anyway, so...)

How in world did you find this out, and where did you find that gecko tjap? I looked on that website you posted pretty frequently for available tjaps and there's never very much to choose from. Do you know of any other websites? I've searched, but nothing really comes up.

Dang, this is just a difficult thing to get into...

Oh boy! Tjantings are very hard to use. The trick is to keep it moving on the paper and to create a design where the blobs won't matter. You can buy tjaps from here

Thats really neatly done, I havn't used a tjap before although I have used a tjanting which is infuriatingly difficult!
