Question: New clothing line!.!?
what im trying to do, is!.!.
im going to start my own clothing line!.
not really making clothing!.!.!.but just putting words!.!.designs!.!.and things on them!.
what i usually do, is i pencil on the shirt, and then use fabric paint to go on top of the pencil!.!.
but im afraid to wash the shirts!.!. in case the fabric paint may come off!.
so, i was wondering, should i just go to a professional printing place, and get them done there!.!. or is there some stuff that i can paint on the shirts, so i will be guaranteed that the design wont come off the shirt/!?!?!?Www@QuestionHome@Com
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Fabric Medium, when mixed with Crafter's Acrylics, produces a washable, permanent paint for fabrics!. It improves penetration and bonds to the fabric while helping to prevent, cracking, peeling and fading!. It is suitable for clothing and home decor textile projects!. Use on denim, polyester blend fabrics, or cotton fabrics!. Will not dilute the color!. Will not flake, crack, peel, bleed or fade!. Non-toxic!.
**BUT IF YOU PLAN ON SELLING THESE SHIRTS, I SUGGEST YOU GO TO A PRINTER SO YOU WILL HAVE A WORRY-FREE GUARANTEE THAT IT WILL STAY ON AND YOUR CUSTOMERS WILL STAY SATISFIED!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
you can take them to a screen printing place, or order them online from a screen printer!. you could also screen them yourself, but it's a hard process and the ink and screens and lights and all are complicated and costly!. i would use acrylic paint instead of fabric paint!. it will soak into the fabric instead of setting on top!. just let it air dry overnight and then you can machine wash and dry the shirts!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
