Having a cool T-shirt is more than just a fashion statement. It is an assertion that you are daring and willing to tackle the world with your own personal style. Getting custom printed T-shirts is really cool, but no one wants to spend all that money on paying a printer to do something that you would have done yourself in a really easy way. T-shirt Printing Screen printing is easy to master, and makes beautiful long-lasting impressions on the fabric. However, doing it at home is really tedious, and if you are not really careful you may end up creating a huge mess of paint. The best method for T-shirt printing is by use of transfer paper. This can be done in a matter of minutes, and there is no limit to the number of t-shirts you can make. Tips on How to do Your Own Custom Printed T-Shirts Be creative. Since you are doing the design on your own, there are no restrictions in the design that you choose. Go online and look for really unique ideas. Try and emulate these while at the same time adding a personal touch. You will probably need a graphic design computer program to help you out with the drawing. Get a clean shirt that is made of a good fabric. It should be a fabric that is absorbent and one that does not blot easily. Dry it out and iron it before you begin to print. Print the design out. The best printer is a LaserJet printer as an ink printer ay leaks out excess ink and end up messing the whole design of the print. Check the final print to ensure that it is flawless. If you notice anything that needs some minor adjustments attend to it promptly as it might show up in the final draft. Trim out the edges and place on transfer paper. When cutting the edges, be very keen to follow the outline so that you do not leave a really wide margin from the edge, and also not to cut into the print itself. Place the paper on the transfer paper and press to ensure that the print has been relayed onto the transfer paper. Pull off the print paper from the transfer paper and paste the transfer paper on the T-shirt. Iron it out well to leave a lasting impression. Peel off the transfer paper from the T-shirt. Remember to do it gently so that you do not rip the transfer paper in the processor. While doing this, your hands should be really dry; otherwise moist hands may make the ink on the T-shirt to start blotting out. After peeling off, hang the T-shirt to aerate for a short while. It will now be ready for you to wear. When you print your own custom printed T-shirt, you not only save money, but you can also add more stuff to it, such as your personal signature, which would be hard to be reciprocated by a commercial printing. Whether it is a charity event that you are having or just want to stand out from the crowd, make a custom T-shirt.
