How to screen print at home

[@artistyips]

Another little at home tip instead of transparency sheets or wax paper (FYI a little messy): Print image on regular copy paper, coat with regular cooking oil (do a LITTLE BIT at a time), rub it into the paper until the whole sheet or image area is transparent, wipe off excess FULLY, and use!

[@Shmoxd]

This is awesome!

[@JuliaCirillo]

You can do it with alcohol too, but it would mess up the sharpie

[@peoplecallmepeechez]

I was about to mention this. I had a screen printing portion in one of my art classes and that's how we burned the screens

[@CeciliaSalcedo26]

baby oil is great too!

[@NaniNani-ch8ts]

Cecilia Salcedo yes! I took a screen printing class and this is the way we prepped our papers before exposing them! Just use the baby oil and let it dry out :D

[@theratkingrulerofthesewers2442]

I tried this in fashion class and I found out a similar result with the stockings so when doing this project I do recommend that you use a non stretch fine meshey fabric. And in addition to school glue you can use modpodge to fill in holes! I didn’t know that you could use acrylic paint though and that’s pretty rad!

[@Shmoxd]

Yah I liked the non stretching stuff better too!:) I wonder how long the acrylic paint will last though

[@Dani-cg7ri]

What are some non stretchy fabrics that work with this?

[@insanityexplained]

@@Shmoxd and et al with the super long frog username haha You can get fabric mediums to mix with acrylic paint, I've got some by Liquitex .. Jo Sonja also sells a fabric medium which is cheaper but unsure of the reviews on that one.

[@insanityexplained]

@@Dani-cg7ri try chiffon or hell maybe even some old organza curtains would work? Not sure.. but I have some of the latter and will give it a go soon n check back in :)

[@TheeArtSmith]

I've done it on a denim jacket. I found that when you iron it in it helps it bond better and lasts longer. just iron on top of brown paper or something similar so you don't melt and smudge the paint @@Shmoxd

[@Isaac-zc3cy]

first off dude.. you're a genius for figuring this out. Also, it does make sense that the chiffon works better than the pantyhose because the chiffon is a woven fabric with little to no stretch where the pantyhose is a knit that needs a lot of stretch to do its intended job!!

[@JalenTroi]

So when I made my skateboard inspired by your art style, I also got to design a t-shirt using silkscreen. We also used the transparent paper to make our screens so that way is the best (in my opinion)

[@Shmoxd]

I agree:):)

[@kiwipalace]

the last print came out really well. appreciate the DIY culture

[@Shmoxd]

Thanks! And me too:):)

[@happinessescape]

Ah, this is an old video, but hot tip to reduce the risk of “blowout”: Rather than trying to push the ink straight from the blob (right out of the paint bottle, or collected around the edges) to the target surface (paper, shirt, roomba), you can pre-load the design with a bit of ink so that the coating is relatively light, then press _that_ into your surface. This works best if you’re loading the front of your screen (so the ink from the initial pre-load doesn’t touch the surface until you want it to). (I’ve only used screen printing ink, before, though, and I’m not sure if this applies as well to more general paint.) Additionally, it’s best if you can get the design on in one decisive sweep, rather that a couple swip-swips, because when you do that, the screen will push against the surface a couple times, picking some ink up and (1) depositing it where you might not want it, and (2) blur the design on your next surface as well.

[@kamiheyler1898]

I love the evolution of Kristina

[@MeowMeowKapow]

Because Elmer’s glue is fairly water soluble, it would have probably worked out a bit better if you had just painted the design with acrylic and let it dry since it would be far less likely to come off wile rinsing. Plus, then you could use colored paint to see your design more easily! I’ve been really into stamp carving on my channel lately, so printmaking is the natural next step. I remember seeing a similar method on another channel and thinking the exact same thing. =>..

[@Shmoxd]

Ooo I think you’re right:) you’ll have to try it out and let me know how it goes!

[@Shri100percent]

So instead of glue he should have used paint? I'm confused ;-;

[@imtinyem]

Would it work to use fabric paint instead of glue? As I would assume the nature of fabric paint is to resist water?

[@mimmikibilly]

@@imtinyem you would have to iron it. a thick layer of undiluted acrylic paint is probably way better.

[@mimmikibilly]

@@Shri100percent yes because acrylic dries and becomes waterproof, unlike gouache or oil (the latter dries out really slowly). you are basically creating a paint crust that will shield the negative parts of the design and prevents ink or paint you want to print with from leaking through the fabric.

Loved how you showed the learning process and mistakes you made. Also using random stuff that “we” people who craft to much already have laying around. Now off I go to work on my own designs and maybe finally actually complete a project. Because ADD kicks my ass and I seem to always start a new project before EVER completing anything. Kinda like this rambling I’m doing right now. I can never seem to shut the hell up🤫and quite possibly need to be more engaged with the local folks/neighbors. But also feel that people kinda, well they kinda suck. Except John, my neighbor. Sweet old fella who takes care of all the stray cats living on the prowl. Though I’d prefer if they didn’t use the mulch and flower beds as litter boxes. But I suppose don’t really mind. Except when the blink camera goes off 20 times a night capturing the wondering kitty cats. Ok sorry about all that chitchat and other nonsense🥴Off I go........ Thanks for Sharing Jen

If you want to print on translucent paper, instead of getting that plastic stuff or trying to print on parchment, you can print on regular old paper with black ink, and then just rub vegetable oil on the paper. It'll make it translucent enough that you can put the oily paper on top of a screen and then expose it with a bulb. I use this method all the time!

[@vayermenoviko0linixD]

I attended a summer workshop about screenprinting this July and, after we had put the emulsion on the screen, we would draw something on the back of the screen, free-hand whatever we wanted with 1-3 tones (some gradation could be achieved), using a black oil pastel, like the ones for lithography (there was a workshop for lithography too so we had a lot of these). Afterwards, we would let the screens "develop" I guess in the sun -a process rather fast, since it was in the middle of the day in July. Then one of the instructors rinsed them all off, the oil pastel went away as well (leaving just a faded trace behind, they called it "ghosting") and they were ready to print. Also, you first load the screen and the design with ink, drag it down once, back up again while it's in the air and THEN you put the paper or the fabric you want to print onto underneath your screen and repeat the process, making sure every time you lift the screen to change paper to push the ink back up, to the top, feeding the design again. A really useful tip they gave us was not to pull the ink too much to the sides since that would mean it would spread too much and we would lose a small amount of it with each print. And, let me tell you, that shit costs a lot, especially when you are looking to produce high quality prints for clients and not just as a hobby.

[@vayermenoviko0linixD]

I've done screenprint for years at a print studio, and I applaud your effort to make screenprint more accessible, but screenprinting really is something where you need to invest in the right tools for a less frustrating experience. I'm not saying people shouldn't try screenprinting with an embroidery hoop and stocking, but if you're aiming for professional results, it's easier to achieve with professional supplies.
