DIY T-Shirt Screen Printing at home!

This is an old video I lost, that I filmed before any of my others over a year ago!

Things needed:

1. Sewing ring
2. Fabric paint or screen printing ink
3. Tray to put the ink/paint in
4. Sponge or squeege
5. Curtain fabric or organza
6. Paint brush
7. Paper and pencil to sketch idea or a print out of what you want to trace.
8. PVA glue or Mod Podge (much better then PVA because it is not water soluble so you can use your print more then once)

You can find a sewing ring at any sewing or crafts store.

Mod Podge can be found here:

Note: PLEASE PRACTICE ON AN UNWANTED/OLD TOP OR FABRIC BEFORE POTENTIALLY RUINING A GOOD TOP!!!

does the shirt wash out after doing laundry a couple of times?

[dodgyredhead]

@sxgtrgd If your using the right paint, let it dry and iron in after wards to seal it in, then I shouldn't do. I've not had a problem yet :)

[megalocalopez]

@LiviLoo I did have 4 (at the point of filming this, the rat in the video was a baby) one died last september who was a naked fancy rat, another died last month which was a fancy rat and that was really sad because he was rescued from a horrible owner and we called him rodney and he had so much character and he only about lived 2 years and died due to cancer which really broke my heart :( But I still have Trigger and Mikey (trigger in the video) Who are both dumbo's but mikey is also naked :)
