Yes, this is _another_ DIY silkscreening tutorial. I find them interesting because DIY silkscreening is easy to do and creates very interesting and original results. Be original.

This is yet another instructable on t-shirt printing. This on uses sticky paper and silkscreen ink. Nice, simple, and seems to work pretty well too.

Today, I bring you two other t-shirt tutorials. The first one shows you how to reproduce retro silk screening with simple tools you probably already have. The result is nice: a crackly old-school retro look. The second one shows a more advanced technique that produces cleaner results.
Time to get out your old t-shirts and brng them back to life.

A nice instructable that shows you how to make your own stenciled t-shirt. I’ve done this, and for a first attempt, it wasn’t too bad. Didn’t use the freezer paper though, but will do next time. I used 3 colors, hence 3 stencils, but the acrylic paint would crack. Since then, I’ve bought a bottle of Liquitex Fabric Medium, which reduces the rigidity of the paint once it dries.
Also, if you’re applying paint on a dark shirt, you’ll need to do a light base coat or apply several layers. Your mileage may vary as each paint/color has its own opacity and pigment concentration.
This technique is not limited to T-shirts to let your imagination run wild!
