I made 3 t-shirts with different heat transfer methods:) ink jet printer transfer paper, iron on vinyl, and screen print transfers.

I'll start with the ink jet printer and vinyl (cause I haven't tried those before) and end on screen printing (which is how I usually do mine:) • So for ink jet printer way.... you need an ink jet printer ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯ the lil kit thing comes with parchment paper and the actually heat transfer paper (with the blue lines). Print the image on the side with out blue lines. when using the transfer paper for dark shirts-- I'm going to say shirts, when you can iron it on other things-- it has a white background. So unless you want a white paper sized print with your image on it, you have to cut the design out:) • Next, peel off the backing to the iron on transfer sheet ( I forgot to do that first go around smh). Put the parchment paper over the your transfer, make sure its in the spot that you want, and iron it on! 🙌🏻 • For the vinyl transfer, if you had a cricut or vinyl cutter that would make things a lot easier.. but I don't... so we are going to cut it out by hand ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯ . It's important that you flip/mirror your image when doing this cause you will be cutting it out from the back side (the side that will be touching the t-shirt) • Also! make sure you are cutting into the actual vinyl, not the clear sheet that holds the vinyl in place... I'm a big dummy. • I put a parchment paper over the top when ironed it on.. I dunno if that was necessary.. but safety first? ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯ • There were also spots that I accidentally flipped so the iron on side wasn't facing the fabric. I just had to cut out those details again and make sure the iron on side (the shinny side) was flipped right. • So for the screen print method... You need to flip the design again. I had a design I was making for some Patreon shirts that I wanted to heat press, So I just flipped the screen. To make it lie flush on the transfer paper I put a piece of wood under the screen:) • Just print it like normal onto a transfer sheet. While the ink is still wet (use plastisol ink) add some heat transfer powder by putting a line over the top of the print and letting it fall down over the whole thing. • Put the extra powder back and get rid of the excess powder around the design by blowing and shaking 💃🕺 (any left over will show up on the shirt) • Use a heat gun to adhere the powder to the ink. You don't want it to cure the ink completely (that will happen when you iron it on:) • You don't need parchment paper this time cause the transfer sheet acts as that. Make sure it's in the place you want, and iron it on. Try not to rub the iron around Aton.. use more of just like a press type motion ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯ • I put it on a weave and it... worked? haha it made the weave super flat but. ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯ • I also tried using an embroidery hoop to screen print and that worked too!:) so... go make some shiiiiiiiiiiit:) • Here is a list of the stuff I used: • ink jet transfer sheet (for dark fabric): https://amzn.to/2HREA6t • ink jet printer (couldn't find my exact one but also mine sucks): https://amzn.to/2OyzvAy • iron on vinyl: https://amzn.to/2uCbWxB • plastisol ink: https://amzn.to/2WCSOeV • transfer powder: https://www.davisint.com/p-759-rhinob... • If you wanna grab a shirt you can head here: www.patreon.com/shmoxd • Join my email list!: • https://www.shmoxd.com/news • Follow me and watch the art process: • Instagram: / shmoxd • Twitter: / shmoxd • Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/user/1214933... • Facebook: / shmoxd • Patreon: / shmoxd • Buy some stufffff from me: https://www.shmoxd.com • • Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/channel/shmox... • Like.
