screen printing

for the last few months i've been experimenting with screen printing. the youtube video i watched made it look SO easy. but let me tell you, it's harder than it looks. my applause to people like thomas jefferson and ben franklin for doing experiment after experiment and not giving up. seriously, i just about threw in the towel. but today, i figured i'd try one more time. and wouldn't you know...everything finally pulled together and WORKED! so exciting! so i printed a couple bags and they turned out pretty good. but practice makes perfect...so i guess i'll keep working at it.

FINALLY! something to show for hours of work...another bag...

the screen i used...

the workstation...

Amanda - I am completely impressed with your project! I think you definitely need to keep doing those and tell my sister that she should join you in your crafting! :)
