It made me
Effervescent.
How I did it: I bought reference books & took out books at the library on how to deconstruct/reconstruct T's, rip/sew/slash/revamp T's, & design T business. I took all the notes I could & got a journal to log my progress as well as my design ideas.

Oh. my. god. I just realised, after about 10 years of wanting to make my own shirts but thinking it logistically impossible, that after using photo emulsion on a silk screen you can still re-use the screen! I bought a screen years ago and only used it once, having found the process of cutting out letters from litho paper with a Stanley knife to be waaaaaay too annoying. Holy crap, this makes for interesting proceedings! I see in my future self-made tshirts… Many self-made tshirts…! :D

Pictures in My Head

I make my own T-shirts frequently because the ones that I find in stores are never as good as the ones that I picture in my mind. Thanks to a laser printer/scanner and iron-on transfers, I can turn almost anything into a quality T-shirt. Note: I suggest using the iron-on transfers labeled for dark T-shirts instead of the ones for light, even if you have a light-colored T; the final result is smoother and looks more professional.

“I'd like to make my own shirt by taking drawings that I've made and putting them on shirts, but I have NO idea how to go about doing this. Should I print it out? Iron it? Heatpress? HELP! Please email me at: byondwings@yahoo.com thanks! :) -mj”
