Are you interested in learning how to print your own t shirt at home? There are two great methods for DIY t shirt printing at home, simplified versions of the ones professionals employ. Read our post on screen printing here, or read on to learn about using the iron-on transfer method to print your own t shirt.
The iron on transfer printing method is a simple, no-fuss and no mess way to apply a design or complex image to a t shirt or other fabric. To print your own t shirt only requires a design, a home or office printer, an iron, and something to print.
Heat transfer paper can be purchased at stationery, craft, and office supply stores. You will need to choose from two types, one that transfers onto whites and pastels and one that transfers onto other colours.
Transfer paper designed for light-coloured fabrics creates a mirror image. To achieve the results you want, you will need to reverse or mirror the image before printing. Your printer may offer an option for this or you may need to edit the photo in a photo editor before printing.
You must cut around the image exactly to ensure no blank transfer paper is left. If you try to iron on an image with excess paper, a shadow will be left on the t shirt in the shape of the transfer paper.
I made a cute little t-shirt design for my one year old niece and I need to print it backwards on an iron-on transfer sheet so the writing will be correct on the shirt. Can I do this from LibreOffice, or should I go find special software for iron-ons?
- The endemic piwakawaka or New Zealand fantail (Rhipidura fulginosa) is one of New Zealand's most commonly encountered native birds. They have a distinctive 'cheet cheet' call and will often fly playfully close to humans, with their tails spread wide into a fan. Around the Mt Iron reserve in Wanaka, and especially during autumn, they are often seen flitting through the branches of the native tree Kanuka (Kunzea ericoides). There are two colour variations - pied and black, although the black form is extremely rare in the North Island and present in lass than 5% of the South Island population -
Open edition.
All prints have excellent archival properties and are printed in Nelson, New Zealand on 300gsm, 100% post consumer waste recycled stock. Please be aware that because the prints are made with recycled stock, very tiny flecks may be present on some of the paper. I enjoy the natural look this gives and feel it is much preferable to printing on paper made from old-growth forest pulp!
Each is individually signed and monogrammed and comes with a thick board backing, information blurb on rear and enclosed in a 'cellophane' bag for protection. Shipped flat in recycled cardboard packaging.
The experience the students gain in this 4-5 day marathon has a radically positive effect. It encourages higher expectations, desire, and skill sharpening in presenting their own work in a noticeably more professional manner.
The editions made are divided between the visiting artist and the Printmaking Department. The subsequent sale of prints covers the entire cost of the projects. Any profit goes to Fine Arts 2D student Merit Awards and supports additional special events in Printmaking such as Visiting Artist lectures, workshops, demonstrations, and individual studio visits.
On the day of the event, within a set time limit, the teams compete against each other to create their image. It must combine lithography, intaglio, relief, and silkscreen, and incorporate a bag of mystery ingredients as well.
Students have the opportunity to take an annual trip to the Southern Graphics Print Council Conference, the largest print organization in North America, allows students to meet and connect with contemporary master printers.
Protopasta Rustable Magnetic Iron Metal PLA Composite is actually ferromagnetic. It responds to magnets and behaves similarly to pure iron! Encapsulated in plastic, the iron maintains a stable matte, cast metal finish as printed, but can be rusted when desired.

Proto-pasta Rustable Magnetic Iron Metal PLA Composite is actually ferromagnetic. It responds to magnets and behaves similarly to pure iron! Encapsulated in plastic, the iron maintains a stable matte, cast metal finish as printed, but can be rusted when desired. Here is why Proto-pasta Iron PLA is so interesting:
**This filament is more abrasive than standard PLA. Be prepared to replace your nozzle and do 1st layer adjustment. Try a wear resistant and/or larger diameter nozzle for increased service intervals.
Processing is comparable to standard PLA. No heated bed required. Process may be less consistent on smaller nozzles and/or bowden type machines. We frequently print using direct-drive systems with 0.4 mm nozzles, though prefer 0.6 mm and 190-210C (standard PLA or a bit cooler) for the best experience.
This material has been flow optimized and has less moisture uptake than standard PLAs, however composites are still sometimes more tricky to print depending on hardware and software settings. The main challenge is to keep mass flow up (larger nozzle + fast speed) and in a single direction (minimal retraction) to avoid heat soak. More on that topic here.
Side note: If you have a cat that likes to sleep on warm clothes out of the dryer, make sure you use a lint roller to remove any fur before you iron anything on. One stray cat hair ended up pressed right into my design. I think this gives it more character, but you might not laugh it off like me. ?
8. Admire all of your hard work! See below for my completed projects. A couple of them are for daddy, and the others are just for fun. Since this craft was so easy and turned out so great, I am eager to make more.
*Cost per onesie does not include ink used and assumes you already have an iron and printer. I only used one sheet of transfer paper for all these onesies, so I have five leftover for my next projects.
HP iron-on transfers for inkjet printers cannot be used with LaserJet printers, or with copy machines and inkjet printers that have a heating element. These products can melt the transfer and cause damage to the hardware.
High quality, lighter color 100% cotton or cotton-polyester blend fabrics: Use thick, 100% cotton, high quality fabrics. Other fabrics work, but you might need to modify the ironing heat, pressure, and time to get a successful transfer.
Sturdy heat-resistant ironing surface at or below hip level: Use a hard, smooth, surface such as a formica counter, laminated pressboard desk, or heat-safe table top. Do not use a standard ironing board or a glass surface. A lower surface height makes it easier to apply the required pressure with the iron.
Over the past eight months I have been working on my dream project, a life-size Iron Man 3D print. I am still planning on writing up a longer article about my experience and the various things I did (and would do differently); however, I figured I would share some of the details as an intro.
First and foremost, I have always wanted a life-size nerd statue (I blame the movie The Benchwarmers, or the TV Show, How I Met Your Mother); either way, I have always wanted one; however, I could never justify spending $4k - $6k for a statue. Over the years I had thought about 3D printing it but I was still a novice, and I was having nothing but issues with my Creality 3D printers. Then I watched a few reviews of the Bambu X1C, and thought it seemed pretty easy to use, and I think the best way I heard it described was to think of it as a tool to make the hobby, not the tool being the hobby.
38 rolls of filament. Since you are not modelling yourself, it will probably be difficult for you to create a hollow body with a 5mm thick wall. I have started doing this in the past and started making a hollow body because of the material consumption and weight. According to my calculations and those of the slicer, I would have needed 10 rolls of PLA to print a lifelike figure about 1.70m tall. It is worth optimising the print settings. Even if you print full bodies, you may be able to save up to 50% material. No matter how much you save in percentage terms, optimisation should be worthwhile given the size and quantity of filament.
Hi,
Many models can be split and then welded together if needed. I also look for models that allow the use of magnets. All these models were printed on the X1C without too much trouble. (Note. Apart from the Iron Man Mk5 Helmet. That was a purchase :).
Printing 3D objects is a fascinating thing. Still, many people don't realize that standard 3D printers can be useful also for tasks which you might think of as being "2D". In this instructable, I'll show you how I make use of my 3D printer to create custom iron-on artwork, useful to create custom bags, t-shirts or the like. It's easy (no 3D design needed!), it's much faster than printing 3D objects (just 2-5 minutes print time), and it's fun!
I will try to describe the process in detail. When you do this the first time, it will probably involve installing some stuff and take a little longer. But trust me: once you have everything set up and done this the first time, it's dead simple.
On the day I write this instructable, my daughter has been invited to a friend's birthday -- 7 year old Malte, from her clarinet class. The party is going to start in about one hour and we still need a present. We want to create a custom felt bag for his music scores, with his name and a clarinet on it.
1. Please note that some people see good reasons for not giving a 7 year old child a bag with his or her name on it, as strangers might take advantage of knowing the name ("Hi Malte, remember me? Your father told me to pick you up here ..."). Our Malte is mature enough to carry this bag :)
