In the process of creating some soft crafts, such as hand-knitted dolls and fabric sculptural ornaments, mesh fabric can serve as an internal supporting structure. It has a certain degree of stiffness, which helps to maintain the shape of the soft materials. For example, in the production of the skeleton part of the doll, it allows the doll to stand or maintain a specific posture, preventing deformation and collapse.
Composite Craftworks: When making composite craftworks with materials such as resin, mesh fabric serves as an reinforcing material to evenly distribute stress. For example, when crafting small resin sculptures, mesh fabric can enhance the strength and toughness of the resin after it cures, preventing the craftworks from breaking due to external impact during handling and placement.
Surface decoration: It can be directly used as a decorative element for crafts. Due to its unique grid structure with a textured appearance, when applied in crafts such as collage paintings and creative handmade decoration boards, by dyeing the mesh fabric or sticking it to the surface in its original color, it can create a visual effect of industrial or retro style, enhancing the sense of depth and artistry of the craft.
Assisted Dyeing and Printing: In the production of some dyed and printed crafts, mesh fabric can be used as a dyeing template. By treating the mesh fabric with a dye-resistant coating and then covering it on the surface of the craft for dyeing, one can obtain regular or creative pattern effects, adding unique decorative elements to the craft.
