I just love Batik prints and designs. What is Batik, you might ask. Well, Batik is a wax-resist dyeing technique used on textiles and is recognizable by it distinguish patterns and bright vivid colours. Being Malaysian, I am very particular about the quality and authenticity of the Batiks I buy. I found a great new Batik store online that has just that! It's called Kraf Online. I'm so glad I found this store. It's been a while since I have seen such lovely batik designs in such high quality.
I just love their ZANA range of Batik Men's Shirts. With summer being just around the corner, this would make a perfect gift for that special man in your life. He would look so good wearing this down to the shore or during that weekend backyard BBQ. With Father's Day fast approaching, this would also make a great gift for Dad too! For that more formal occasion, they also have a nice collection of Batik ties.
Not only do they have great shirts and ties, Kraf Online also carries a wide range of bags, stationery, bedding, table runner sets, scarves and shoes. I bet my Mother in Law would just love the silk Batik scarves. She could wear it when her choir performs or when she goes out to lunch with her friends. My Mom on the other hand would love this pair of shoes. Check it out! It would look good in any occasion.
You should go check out Kraf Online. There are just so many great designs to choose from. They also have a batik blog that you can visit. At this moment, they have a special offer going on.
