Creativity and Koloron Art Fabric
What every teacher needs to know about Koloron
Koloron is the only product that combines the best qualities of fabric and paper so it makes a great resource for classrooms and workshops and for creative teaching of all craftwork.

    Use Koloron wherever you need a material that handles like fabric but has the decorative potential of paper. It can be used for hundreds of creative projects because it will cut, glue, stitch, paint, print and melt and that's just the start for this new Art medium.

    Koloron is genuinely valuable right across the teaching curriculum. Costumes, scenery and masks for Dance and Drama. 3D maps and structures for Geography. Textural dress up and structures for History. Paint, print and embroidery for textiles and, of course, also everything for Art and Design Technology.  Koloron will serve as a wraparound for a book and a giant backdrop for a stage production. It is truly versatile.

    Koloron doesn’t tear easily, it won’t fray when cut and it is light and easy to handle.  Holes can be made simply, edges melted and textured with a heat gun or frayed to give a feathered effect.  Koloron will remain strong and retain its shape, properties which make it ideal for 3D work.

    Koloron is equally suitable for collage projects; it combines well with other fabrics and decorative materials such as lace, buttons and even tin foil. Such items can be stuck  onto a Koloron base with  Berol’s Marvin Medium, PVA or even

d ouble-sided tape. Alternatively any item can be sewn into place. Koloron will comfortably go through a sewing machine, it can be gathered, pleated, draped and wired.  Washing before use will soften the surface making it perfect for delicate and soft effects.

    Costume design is so much more creative with Koloron Art Fabric; the imagination can roam free of many of the practical frustrations imposed by conventional woven fabrics.  Once made, garments can be painted and decorated in a way that is only possible with Koloron. Whether it is to create the look of haute couture or works of pure fantasy and flamboyance, all is possible with this remarkable material.
