I’ve been hesitant to give away this secret, but I couldn’t help myself. I learned this technique for transferring ink in college, and a friend and I were curious to see if it worked on t-shirts. And a new DIY enterprise was born…
Care instructions:
You need heat to set the design. I use a hair dryer. Wash it inside out the first few times. The design will naturally fade a bit, but setting it in the sun or with a hair dryer will help.
I hope you all enjoyed this. Please leave a comment and let me see your designs!
Really clean and nice
thank you for sharing with us
That is really cool! I am definitely going to try that trick out. Seems superior to iron-on, which I always mess up.
(Aw, you’re so cute!)
I’ve tried to do this so many times – but my shirts never turn out very nice, haha. Jealous!
Thanks, Ashley! I was having a bad hair day – hence the lovely purple hat.
I’m sorry your shirts haven’t turned out so well. If you want a design of yours on a shirt I’d be happy to do it for you!
This is really cool! Definitely beats iron-on t-shirt transfers. I’ve been thinking about getting a laserjet. This gives me a whole ‘nother reason to do so.
Awesome video, I have always wanted to do that myself!
What a great tutorial. I can’t wait to show my son so he can make his own back-to-school tshirts. Your tutorial was excellent. You should make moretutorials! You didn’t leave anything out. And your very easy to listen to.
Thanks!
Hey! Thanks for sharing the ‘secret’. It is a real delight to transfer designs by hand.
Here is what I made:
