Awesome! We were thinking about screen printing, but this is so much more sensible! Thanks.

you can use the paper that photocopy paper comes in to do this as it has a waxed side, just becareful if it is printed as this canbecomes sticky when ironed. Do try it as it is a great way to recycle and it’s free. Good luck

Hi Lee;
I love the prints you did on your shirt & skirt. A while back I took a workshop about this, and while everyone else was laboriously cutting their images with the x-knife, I cut out several stencils with scissors. My method is to fold the paper in half and either free-form it (cutting) or draw-n-cut on the fold. Sometimes I do abstract, kinda tribal-looking designs, and sometimes go for something more recognizable, like a figure, tree or face. Then unfold and behold a (usually) interesting symmetrical design. (kind of like the snowflake idea, but just folded in half). I don’t have much patience with using the xacto knife.
