Costumes with printed mural designs are a bit traditional to Malayalis. Saris are most popular, followed by Churidars. While choosing and using mural clothes, a few things are to be noted. Just note these simple things.
Tips for Using Mural Clothes
1. Colours used for mural painting are selected from fruit juices and flowers. Basic colours include red, green, yellow, white, and black, and they are mixed in suitable proportions for the art.
2. Apart from natural colours, fabric paints are also made use of for painting murals on costumes. Yet costumes using natural colours are elegant and look Royal.
3. Cloth woven using traditional methods by weavers is used for mural paintings. Yet stuff made of linen, pure silk, Kanchipuram, jute silk, art silk, crape silk, and cotton silk can also be used for painting murals.
4. When the quality of cloth material increases, the quality of mural work also increases.
5. Hand washing is best for mural dresses. Wash in cold water and dry in the shade. Extra care should be given for cleaning mural costumes.
6. Never directly iron the areas where mural work is done. Instead, flip once and iron on the other side.
7. Mural clothes are strictly traditional and hence antique, and traditional ornaments are best. Traditional and terracotta perfectly match for mural painted costumes.
