Assorted questions

[banthetubetop.livejournal.com]

I have a bunch of random questions, so I'm throwing them all into one post.

I'm buying a screenprinting kit tomorrow as an early birthday present to myself, and I'm planning to buy canvas stretchers and stretch my own screens to save money. What fabric should I buy? Suggestions? Also, should I use speedball ink, or just keep using acrylic/textile medium? Because when I looked at Michael's I found screenprinting ink but it said it wasn't for fabric.

I'm going to start doing some bleach stencilling and I figured I'd steal some bleach while I'm at home instead of buying a ton myself. Can I just store it in a spray bottle, or will that somehow damage the plastic to the point where it will leak?

And last (also least), anyone have tips for un-matting fake fur? I had a big chunk of tiger-print fur that I used as a rug last year, then loosely covered my couch with this summer. From all the sitting, half of it is sort of matted down, and I've decided to line it and turn it into a throw-blanket. Might it work to comb out some of the mats?

Thanks in advance :) I'll do a picture post sometime soon, sorry for the text-only.
