Hairspray Photo Transfer Technique

[Arcaty]

I thought  this was very interesting and something I haven't tried yet..........Thanks for the ideas

That's cool! I've used gloss medium for photo transfer but never knew you could use hairspray. Maybe if you let the picture rest on the paper for a little longer the ink will lift off better? Also, can i use hairspray on canvas?

Can this same technique be used to transfer words onto wooden blocks? If not, do you know what will?

Looks like yet another new technique to have fun with. Thanks for sharing : D

if the photo is in colour will it come out in colour after the transfer? Just curious :)

[ErinBassett]

@3rkie Yes it will work with color but the color may be lighter if it doesn't transfer completely.

Why not just print the image on the cardstock you used in your cricket? Seems like a waste the Avery sheets.

[ErinBassett]

Good question @gailyanne...this is a mixed media art technique that can be used on top of paint or other things that people don't necessarily want to run through their printer.

[hairdebi]

does this only work with stamped images; or are they print outs?

[ErinBassett]

@hairdebi They are inkjet prints.

Thanks for a great, inexpensive way to do image transfers. Love the video and can't wait to try it out.

Peace & Love,
