Étape 1 - Collect Fabric

Collect the fabric you want to customize.

Étape 2 - Prepare the wooden plank

With a pencil, write up the letter on the plank making sure that the letter, are back to front (therefore making a mirror copy) so that when you print it will come out the right way around.

Use carving tools to carve around the letters. N.B: when you print the areas cut out will not take the paint (they will stay the same color as the t-shirt).

Étape 3 - Print

Place a sheet of cardboard under or inside your fabric to separate the front and back.

Use a brush to put the paint on the stamp (on the embossed letter).

Turn the stamp over and press it onto the t-shirt. Hold the pressure for a few seconds.

Étape 4 - Peel away

Peel away the plank from the t-shirt and leave to dry for 24 hours.

Étape 5 - Repeat

Repeat this process with all the recovered fabrics before thoroughly washing all the equipment (pad, brush, etc.).
