This is my first Instructable, and my entry for the Instructables pocket-sized contest. It’s a Pocket-Sized Watercolor Box in an Altoids tin. I’ve seen people make similar ones and I’ve decided to make my own, using what I had: Fimo clay.

For once, instead of just linking to an Instructable, I wrote one. About time!

Please vote for me!

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.

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!
