Hey everyone,
This is my first post to this community, but I've been lurking and reading posts for quite some time now. I do crafty things a lot, but I'm so proud of myself for finally figuring out and successfully screen printing, that I had to share. I bought myself a speedball kit on sale (fyi, for those of you interested in this kit- it's a good kit, but the instructions leave a lot to be desired). I made a simple design in photoshop, printed it out on transparency paper, and used the photo emulsion technique explained here. I printed it on a cheap, boy's undershirt so I wouldn't be too upset if I messed up. It was easy, except that I was working on my parents' dining room table and had to be especially paranoid about making a mess. I had a few problems, but nothing that I couldn't fix up. In general, I think it turned out pretty good for my first try.
Here it is.
