Oh, you are a genius. I was individually dropping the smaller pieces on one-by-one. HTV Transfer paper is WIN!! And the hair dryer? My kids would LOVE to sit there for 30mins and do this LOL Thank you.
Just got a maker and exploring looking for tips. I will admit I feel a little mind blown having watched this. Off to find freezer paper (probably the easy part), buy some paint, and then get with the kids on new shirt ideas. I can't wait to try this.
This is a really great video and tutorial...the combination of words and close ups of things--iron setting, paint brushes etc. really helps us 'slow' learners. Thank you!
Hi, I love how you did this without having to buy the screen, and the cheap way of using freezing paper and parchment paper. You learn something new everyday. I'm going to try this! Wish me Luck!!!!!! One more thing, the reason it doesn't bleed is because you used the speedball paint (screen print paint), or was it the technique and steps.
This video tutorial has helped me out a lot! I'm in beginning process of designing shirts for my band to sell as merch! Thank you for the tutorial and keep up the good work!!!
TJo Johnson You're very welcome! Remember if you don't have HTV transfer you can move the freezer paper to the shirt by hand. Might be a pain but it is do able!! Have fun!!!!!!!!! 😊😊
This is a great vid i'm actually going to try this out since i've only managed to do a successful home screen printing once thanks this was very helpful
Amy Scofield yes I have! Only thing I recommend is to make sure the first layer of paint is fully dry before ironing on your next layer of freezer paper!! 😊
I have been making these t-shirts for years, but never thought to use transfer tape. I literally bought a tiny little iron for repositioning the centers of "o's" and "e's", etc. Thanks for the tip, you just saved me a boat load of time now! Oh, and also, if you use spray paint, you can blend colors really easily, the stencils come out really crisp and sharp, and adds an "edge" to them. I'm trying to find out if anyone has tried water colors with this technique for canvases and wall hangings. I just found a cool water color technique using sharpies and rubbing alcohol, but worried the water color would bleed under the stencil? Sorry, and another question: Can you use the transfer tape over and over again?
Yay! this looks great and it's affordable. Also PERMANENT. (Right?) And for one-off's it's less time than screen print. Kind of a great idea to do one-offs.
The Thumbs down numb skulls sounds like they're a punk rock band. They make their tour shirts like this cos they're DIY. I hope that answers your question
I've watched two of your videos and enjoy watching them. Some of the videos people make talking the whole process through are unnecessarily long; or I'm too impatient, either way thank you for the videos.
Ahhhhhh yes, screen printing ink....I see it still takes forever to dry. You'd be much better off using a really good water-based acrylic multi-surface paint like E'tac Private Stock or the Wicked line from Createx, both of which I use all the time and dry MUCH faster. Either one works great on t-shirts....I also use them on leather jackets--a couple of light coats of a flexible clear and they're permanent on leather. Can also be used on paper, metal(cars and bikes), helmets & goalie masks, silk neckties, and more. I normally spray these paints through my airbrushes but have also used them with liner brushes, like outlining lettering on leather. My user icon above left is all E'tac on a 5" x 7" paper envelope. The freezer paper trick I just found out about a couple days ago--almost 40 years of airbrushing and I never knew you could iron it onto a shirt for a basic stencil! Of course most of my stencils are very elaborate affairs with multiple pieces so I'd still use ordinary poster board and spray adhesive, but I can think of uses for the freezer paper. The HTV transfer tape I've never seen before, I'll have to look into that, it's interesting. Thanks for posting this video--learn something new every day!
I love painting shirts But I have always been told to cricut cut the paper with the shiny side up and cut in reverse like you would heat transfer vinyl (I've done MANY shirts that way). Your way looks way easier Have you noticed any problems cutting shiny side down? Love this
that's so cute! can i just make a stencil out of transparency film and paint over the sheet film??? i need to make a ton of shirts and don't know about pasting paper onto the shirt for every one.... any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
Was a stencil cutting machine used to make the freezer paper into a stencil? What is the mat board called? Is it made to be sticky? What is the tape called and what is it used for normally? Thanks. I silkscreen so this is awesome!
Thanks for the video!! Awesome tutorial. I had clicked on another video (someone else's) when I noticed that tutorial was a whopping 22+ minutes. Then I saw yours and switched. Glad I did! It is well done and easy to follow. Thanks, again. :-)
Thank you for the great tutorial. Would this work well with regular fabric paint or does the screen printing paint make a big difference? I have a ton of fabric paint going to waste!
Would it be possible to get the squirrel image,,,or point me in the right direction as to where I could get it. Your tutorial is awesome! Thanks for the share. Just got a cricut and can't wait to try some designs out. Cheers!
Yes the squirrel image is in Design Space! And you can order Siser HTV transfer just google that and tons of websites will pop up! Hope that's helpful!!
Hi, I have a cricut explore air, I've tried parchment paper, paper heavy office, 3m post it and washi tape settings , and always leave a little peace of paper uncut on the shiny side and in some sides taer.
She used a cricut to cut her image out, then weed out (removed ) all the pieces that she didn’t need. This allowed her to get the stencil of the squirrel on the bike. The paper used is called freezer paper that you can find in most grocery store in the US not sure about other countries.
In Nz, you can only get freezer paper from craft stores, not available in grocery stores. and you can't buy a whole box, you pay by length of the paper. annoying
Would u mind sharing the exact setting you use on the cricut for the cut? I have a difficult time getting clean un-mangled cuts.....and I have web-chatted with cricut and they are completely un-helpful. Is your mat brand new? I find brand new causes too many problems removing the freezer paper without tearing. I've read other tuts and some have suggested using the lightweight mat but it looks like you are using the standard grip? Any tips you have with your success would be seriously greatly appreciated! TIA!!
Christy Greene I use "paper" setting, but any others have to use a different setting. I recommend a really sticky mat and super sharp blade. Also do some test cuts on different settings. Heard people like, wax paper, paper +, washi tape, and many others! I hope this can be helpful!! 😊
Great video! thanks! I bought Cheap fabric paint at Joann's, I am guess the quality will be less than the paint you use but before I buy the good stuff could tell me In general, would you say that this method is more cost effective than HTV? If I were to sell shirts I want to have something I know would last as long and look as professional!!
Thank you for your simple yet very detail tutorial video! I just tried this last night but I was impatient and few spots bled thru... 😫 If I have not “heat” set the shirt, is there a way to clean it up? Would rubbing alcohol work? TIA
Great video!!! I had a bit of a time getting the freezer paper off the shirt. I had to resort to tweezers and it took about 45 minutes or more to get all the smaller pieces off the shirt. Is this normal? I did use a heat press as opposed to an iron. Any suggestions?
One of the best instructional videos out
seriously this is the first tutorial i watch that make sense to me. thank you so much for sharing
I didn't know transfer tape could be used to transfer the stencil to the shirt. This is so helpful, thanks!
Oh, you are a genius. I was individually dropping the smaller pieces on one-by-one. HTV Transfer paper is WIN!! And the hair dryer? My kids would LOVE to sit there for 30mins and do this LOL Thank you.
Love the simplicity of your video, just tried it and I am waiting for it to dry...so far so good! Thanks!

hamawilo stationery Thank you so much for the kind words!!!! 😊😊😊😊❤️❤️❤️ You're very welcome!!!!!!!
I totally agree! One of the best non-speaking tutorials on CZcams!
But how did you get that image first? You took via vinyl cutter machine? That machine is too costly!!
How can this video be great when the squirrel cut was ready made and didn't show how it is cut✌️
@@Nedunagapallil well cut it out by hand then!!
OMG!! U are a GENUIS!!! AND just to think i was getting ready to invest money in a YUDU!!! Thank you sooooo much for this tutorial.
That is pretty awesome! It makes this a very economical craft.
Can't wait to try your method. Thank you for sharing such a complete tutorial. Every question I thought of was immediately answered.
I would have never thought about saving the HTV transfer tape! Great idea, thanks!
Wonderful tutorial ! Easy to understand and inspiring ! Thank you !
Hi, I love how you did this without having to buy the screen, and the cheap way of using freezing paper and parchment paper. You learn something new everyday. I'm going to try this! Wish me Luck!!!!!!
One more thing, the reason it doesn't bleed is because you used the speedball paint (screen print paint), or was it the technique and steps.
Please do more projects like this!!! Really enjoy watching your work! I'm learning so much! I am going to try this. Thank you for sharing!!
This video tutorial has helped me out a lot! I'm in beginning process of designing shirts for my band to sell as merch! Thank you for the tutorial and keep up the good work!!!
BTW loved the video, I was thinking of getting the screen printing kit but after watching , this is much easier.
Vinyl is WAY easier, but this method looks more professional. Totally worth the time and effort
This video was really well done. You got right to the point. Your instructions were clear and I learned a lot. Thank you for posting.
Thank you for sharing your talent. This is something I wanted to try but wasn't sure how .
TJo Johnson You're very welcome! Remember if you don't have HTV transfer you can move the freezer paper to the shirt by hand. Might be a pain but it is do able!! Have fun!!!!!!!!! 😊😊
This is a great vid i'm actually going to try this out since i've only managed to do a successful home screen printing once thanks this was very helpful
You did a very beautiful work
I can't handle this!! First time watching anything like it! LOVE IT! Thank you so much!!! :)
Amy Scofield Awwww thanks so much! Hope it's useful!!! 😊❤️
I am just beginning. Have you ever painted another color over another color? Like a layer?
Amy Scofield yes I have! Only thing I recommend is to make sure the first layer of paint is fully dry before ironing on your next layer of freezer paper!! 😊
That is very nice 👍 good job 👍 😊thank you for sharing 😊👌
Wow! That is awesome. You should do more videos like this one. Thanks for sharing.
thanks for sharing ,look cute, you are awesome.
Great Video. Best on making T Shirts at home by far. The words & pics really helped. Can't wait to see more. Keep up the good work!

great video, the best demo i've seen so far. thanks
U can also do this with regular printing paper and cling wrap if you dont have freezer paper n it would come out just as awsome.
Very clear instructions, thank you so much!
Great video - just getting into this, very helpful tips! Thx 👏
Thank you for making such an excellent video
Thanks. I love making shirts great tutorial..
Yay! this looks great and it's affordable. Also PERMANENT. (Right?)

I. Can you use a heat press for the final step?
Um must have missed somthing - how do you get the design on the freezer paper?
They have a machine. U could use a standard printer or draw free hand like I do.
Really enjoyed your vlog
Who are the thumbs down numb skulls? This was awesome! Can't wait to try it!!!
The Thumbs down numb skulls sounds like they're a punk rock band. They make their tour shirts like this cos they're DIY. I hope that answers your question
People have nothing better to do apparently.
Just kidding around I enjoyed this video and thumbed up
I've watched two of your videos and enjoy watching them. Some of the videos people make talking the whole process through are unnecessarily long; or I'm too impatient, either way thank you for the videos.

Thanks for the video!! Awesome tutorial. I had clicked on another video (someone else's) when I noticed that tutorial was a whopping 22+ minutes. Then I saw yours and switched. Glad I did! It is well done and easy to follow. Thanks, again. :-)
Terri Juanette Thanks!! I’m glad you enjoyed it!! 😊❤️
Great video! Just subscribed! Question, can I use a heat press for when you use the iron?
how do you save your transfer tape? great idea :)
good content friend
Do you use a cricut? What setting do you use for the freezer paper to cut?
Best video on how to do this!! I've seen about 10 videos on this and wish this was the first! 😅
Thank you for the great tutorial. Would this work well with regular fabric paint or does the screen printing paint make a big difference? I have a ton of fabric paint going to waste!
Would it be possible to get the squirrel image,,,or point me in the right direction as to where I could get it. Your tutorial is awesome! Thanks for the share. Just got a cricut and can't wait to try some designs out. Cheers!
The Image is in Cricut Design Space.....I just saw it there a few hours ago. =)
Awesome! Thanks!
One more question...where do you get your htv transfer tape from? there are so many mixed reviews on which type is best. Thanks again!
Yes the squirrel image is in Design Space! And you can order Siser HTV transfer just google that and tons of websites will pop up! Hope that's helpful!!
Nicole Coviello use packing tape. Run it over your shirt a few times so it isn’t super sticky
This video is STRAIGHT A1!😎
G😉 girl, You Double time Did Your Thang!👏
Hi, I have a cricut explore air, I've tried parchment paper, paper heavy office, 3m post it and washi tape settings , and always leave a little peace of paper uncut on the shiny side and in some sides taer.
Brilliant!
i don't understand how u cut the squirrel out. all I see is pttinhg a poker to a paper and pulling it up in the shape of a squirrel
exactly... what is Weed the image?
I believe person used a cricut machine= $200 - $400
She used a cricut to cut her image out, then weed out (removed ) all the pieces that she didn’t need. This allowed her to get the stencil of the squirrel on the bike. The paper used is called freezer paper that you can find in most grocery store in the US not sure about other countries.
In Nz, you can only get freezer paper from craft stores, not available in grocery stores. and you can't buy a whole box, you pay by length of the paper. annoying
thank you because i was lost

Or heat it by using an iron by holding it 2 inches away for 8-10 seconds
Thanks for this!
Hi, what's the point of the htv tape?
So it could help the photo transfer to the shirt 😊
Great video! thanks! I bought Cheap fabric paint at Joann's, I am guess the quality will be less than the paint you use but before I buy the good stuff could tell me In general, would you say that this method is more cost effective than HTV?

What is the green mat that the freezer paper was adhered to? Intriguing!
Great video!!! I had a bit of a time getting the freezer paper off the shirt. I had to resort to tweezers and it took about 45 minutes or more to get all the smaller pieces off the shirt. Is this normal? I did use a heat press as opposed to an iron. Any suggestions?
@projects polish and glitter could I use acrylic paint instead of fabric paint.
Great tutorial video! However, you didn't show how you design your image onto the freezer paper.
