Thanks, lovey :]
Acrylic is fine but you need to heat set it before washing it.
Or spraypaint is good, too. I don't normally heat set it when I spraypaint but if you wash it it fades a tad.

heat set...thats ironing it isnt it? i dint know uou could do that with acrylic.. Hmmmm this has opened a door....AND MANY T-SHIRTS FALL FROM THE SKIES
i'd use spray paint but like you said, it fades and i find it doesnt really go on like id like it to
thanks for the tips my lovely

Yeah, an iron.
Just like...on a really, reallllly low setting and a teensy amount of steam otherwise it will fuck up the shirt and it'll get the paint really hard and crispy. haha learned from experience.
Now, with acrylic you can probably use all the steam you want but iron it on a medium-ish setting.
It'd be best to iron the acrylic ones on a somewhat regular basis if you'd like the colors to hold really well.
But with fabric screening paint, not too much steam. Unless you want a crispy shirt.
Try spray paint!! It's reeeeeal neat-o looking on the shirt. It's kind of hard to control where it goes but you basically just tape paper (computer paper is good, or newsprint) to the edges of the stencil so it covers the shirt. And tape the stencil itself down to the shirt. Don't use too much paint or it will bleed like a bitch and ruin the shirt. Blobby shirts aren't cool.
At all.
Post shirts when you get around to making some!!
I am sending you two mix CDs, two burned Bright Eyes CDs, one Bright Eyes mix, a shirt I've made, various (oldddd and new) arts, and a few suprises very soon. :]

yeah it turned out really well, i ironed it but i dunno if it'll stick, i guess i'll find out when it gets washed. I havew pictures which im gonna post soon. But thanks for the tips dear
Ive used spray paint before, it did fade loads and i dunno. it turned out crappy, i didnt mask it very well. But im not throwing the idea away. I'll try it again when i get some more shirts and spraypaint.
when i can afford it, i'll make you a shirt and send it with the other stuff, but its kinda looking like thats not going to happen anytime soon. Money is a bit tight at the moment and job hunting is going well at all. But i will get it to you. I guess in the mean time i can build up things to give you, i'l probably be sending a package over like a box or something. which will probably cost a bomb to airmail. I could send little bits in envelopes i guess. we'll see
Im looking forward to getting stuff from ya though
