These girls have been in school for 100 days now… time they learn how to screen print! ⁠
⁠
 I had fun showing my nieces the whole process. Did you see their faces when they lifted the screen? 😍 They are going to feel so proud wearing these to school this week!⁠

This is one of the most special projects I have made ❤️ A dear friend asked me to screen print on her late husband’s handkerchiefs. She wanted to gift one to each of their grandchildren.⁠
⁠
Talk about pressure not to mess up!! These were so special and irreplaceable! I used my screen print press to ensure perfect placement of the monogram on each handkerchief. ⁠
⁠
Because they were so thin and soft, screen printing was the way to go. The @speedball_art fabric ink soaked into the fibers leaving a soft feel.⁠
⁠
Thank you, Kim, for trusting me with this project ❤️❤️❤️⁠

I bought this IKEA pillowcase probably 2+ years ago and FINALLY did the project I had in mind for it! These pillow cases are great for screen printing but I have learned a few tricks to getting a perfect print.⁠
⁠
⭕️ Line up your screen before putting the painter’s tape on the screen. This makes it easier to see that your design is centered.⁠
❌ Don’t use the 10x14 frame for this. The full 12x12 sheet of vinyl fits better on this 16x20 size frame.⁠
⭕️ Instead of using a large squeegee, I printed each XO individually with a small squeegee. This made it easier to get even pressure on each letter.⁠
❌ Don’t squeegee over the pillow seams. When your squeegee hits these bumps, it can cause your ink to bleed. ⁠
⁠
Watch my stories for a more detailed explanation of these tips!⁠
