Screen Printing Tutorial. This is a new little Matroyska screen print that I designed for some dresses. I just love her! I took some photos of the process I used because I think it is so easy and efficient and I know you all would love doing it. This would be a great way to make Christmas presents for the whole family! I’m making t-shirts for gifts! Also many of you often ask me where I get the cute t-shirts I use for dresses….I often make them and you can too…. I used this Speedball Screenprinting kit from Dharma Trading which included almost everything I needed. Just a quick simple explanation of how the the photo emulsion process works: Basically I think of it as film. The only other materials you’ll need (besides the kit) are: :: A piece of glass the size of your screen (I bought an 11″ x 14″ frame glass from the craft store) :: 4 pushpins :: A piece of black fabric :: Screenprinting ink (if you want colors other than the ones included in the kit) :: A sturdy board or piece of cardboard/foamboard.

On Friday I told you all that I finally opened my Annie Sloan Chalk Paint…which meant I started on a project, of course!
