Join me in this class and you will learn how to start screen printing your own t-shirts using a manual t-shirt printing carousel.
In this class I will demonstrate how you can screen print a 3 colour design onto a t-shirt and add your own personalised branding and packaging. When completing this course you learn how to choose the best garments for screen printing, how to set up your artwork correctly and how to add professional finishing touches to your t-shirts.
You will find simple, easy to follow lessons that can be implemented by a beginner screen printer. Here are the course chapters:
