Diy Screenprinting, Win Maker Fair Tickets, Thread Heads

guess who is making a "team dracula" shirt tonight?

Thats awesome! I've been doing that myself for years now! I had no idea other people were doing the exactly same thing, mod podge and all!

that was cool. but do you have any ideas on making a plane tee into a cool racer back tied in the back?

Hi! okay so I just made a username thingy-mabober so i could comment on the ids and i got to say this looks like the coolest thing i have seen so far well no i like a lot of other things too but i cant sew to save my life so this seems w/i range of my artistic abilities ! lol 
well have a great day yo!

Kat!

Would love to try the DIY silk screening! :) 

THREADBANGER! I LOVE YOU! i have so many ideas for shirt designs, and i had no way of doing it. IRONICALLY enough i have a HUGE box of womens stockings that are like 4 sizes too big for ANYONE! so im definately going to make my own. BTW, is there any other ink or paint i can use to put on my t-shirt? i dont have any fabric ink but i have fabric paint. (is that the same thing ?) THIS IS SO AWSOME im so reved up and i cant wait to start my own DIY shirt printing!

PLEASE HELP!

I did something a lil diff based on this vid.

I used bleach instead of paint then dyed the whole sweatshirt green again to make the areas lighter ... sounds wierd check the pics :)

I have tubes of oil paint that I barely used before I dropped out of an oil painting class like five years ago.  Assuming the paint isn't totally solid inside the tubes, could I use that as my screen-printing ink?

Best stitches,

wowowow i have been wanting to buy a silkscreen but i dont want to pay for one...lol i need my money for other stuff.... and this is the best video for sure...again i found this website today and its sooo cool

where do i get the pain for this?

Hey guys, I love this DIY. Ummmmm do you care if I use the finger(s) Design you used??? I'm making my own jacket and I want to use it on the back (cause I wanna spread the word about my favorite online habit) ^_^

this is so cool, but what type of fabric did you use???

i have a question.... what kind of fabric should you use instead of "a thinly woven mesh fabric" coz i cant find any here where i live O.o... would pantyhose work?

Could (layers of?) pantyhose be used for the mesh? 

@shannon we used speedball fabric ink which you can pick up at pretty much any craft store.

you wouldn't happen to know a way to make a skirt out of old jeans would you?

awesome! Me and my lil sis have plenty of time on our hands this summer, and that looks cool. Where would I get t-shirt ink and how is it different from regular ink or tye-die ink?

This episode made me so happy I went right out and started making shirts:

Thanks for airing this one! You kids are all right. :)
*M*

What exactly is "thinly woven mesh fabric"? Looks like pantyhose... I'd love to do this project but not sure which fabric to use... Love you guys!

oh, and o have tulip fabric paint.
would that work?
other than my confusion, you guys are doing a great job!
lol.

i went to my local joanns and the best fabric that they could give me was crinoline.
would that work?
and also, where would you buy silk-screening ink?

This episode is perfect. I have always wanted to experiment with silk screening, but didn't want to invest any money.  I feel the spirit of Andy Warhol is close! Thanks.

Very cool...now who gets the 1st ever made THREAD HEADS t-shirt!?!? Xmas is just 7 months away, who wouldnt want that in their stocking?

I love the stories you report on about other DIY news, that one about the Luminescent shirts was AWESOME!!! I gotta get me one of those!!!

Corinne, great job on the silk-screening...say do you have a section here where we can download large JPG logos of THREADHEADS and the whatever you call that Thimble Hand Thing? 
I want to make my own. 

And finally at what point will all these episodes be on DVD!?!??! L8R  -Steve C
