Title: silk screening
Post by: divasteph on August 04, 2006, 11:09:11 pm

anyone tried it?
i hadn't done it since art camp when i was 12 or so...
so i went to "the art store/blick" and purchased a starter kit...

i made a stencil... penciled it on the screen... painted in the stencil with drawing fluid...spread on the screen filler... waited and waited for it to dry... and added the ink and pressed... i made a 3 pack of hanes men's tanks into 3 'stephanie pressman' shirts.... not one is perfect....
well one is super close.... but thy are all pretty darn cool

i will show you pictures asap...
xoxo

i bought a kit from an art supply store...
it was time consuming - but fun and pretty easy
