How I Screen Print Without Photo Emulsion!

One thing to take from the "proper" method would be to take a squeegee that's the width of your frame. That way you don't have to paint the edges and such separately.

Great video! Thanks for introducing the block printing as well. I’m going to have to try that out as well!

If you do decide to do the emulsion process you can actually print your design on normal printer paper using the darkest black and white setting you can get then put a little cooking oil on a paper towel and wipe the paper making it translucent no need for acetate. I've done it a bunch and it works.

Thank you for the tapeless version of screen printing!

How do I go about drying the shirt? Do I use a heat gun after I put the design on the shirt?

I just have to say this is WAY more time consuming and difficult of a process than doing it with emulsion. Or using a vinyl cutter to make your stencil.

Emulsion is only intimidating untill you get your hands on it.
Drawing fluid and this hardener are meant for drawing freehand or making corrections.
It's also much more expensive 🫰.
Pls do yourself a favor,stop making more work 4 urself and wasting money.
Take the time to learn how stuff works especially if its confusing.

Thanks, Megan.
Very helpful and less daunting then the very complicated emulsion/exposure route.

This was aweome, thank you!

One word Megan BRILLIANT....i have liked and subscribed to show support for your channel hugs from Scotland 🤗🙂

Great teaching! Great video!

I want nothing to do with that. Lol😅 same. I'm a Meg too, must come with the name😊 new sub.

Good advice thanks ;)

Hi there! I'm Brazilian and I want to start customizing totes bags. Could you write down the materials you used? I loved your prints.

This is one of the best videos for this I have seen! Thank you

This is really helpful, thanks for putting it all togethwr in a really easy to understand way!
I'm not from the states but hopefully I can find all the materials, or if anyone has any alternative brand recommendations, please inform me - just in case❤

youre the absolute coolest for this tysm!!

Thank you so much for this video as I'm taking my first foray into DIY screen printing and have no machinery (nor the space or money to get any haha). I had one question tho: what do you do for curing? Do you air dry or put in just a regular clothes dryer?

LOVE YA

Thank you so much for this video! I was wanting to personalise some sewing projects at home and every other video seems to be so commercial aimed. This seems a lot more affordable and practical for home projects. Your artwork is so amazing btw. Very saleable, you should try selling some to big companies. You would make a packet

Thanks for sharing your knowledge

Thank you for a great video, your art is so wonderful ❤

what if i use gouache colors insted of the blue thing and i can still wash it

How many prints can you make with the screen? Does the design stay for multiple prints, or would you have to re-paint it after just a few?

What kind of chimical is this "drawing fluent" thank you

loved this so much. your techniques work well with the way my brain works.

Assalamu Alaikum dear sister how are you I am silk screen print master I know color mixing I know screenshot I can do all silk screen print work I am in a company in Malaysia but I will change dear sister if your company needs workers please hire me take

Cant find the blue drawing fluid, what other alternatives to use?

Thank you! It was very helpful indeed! Cheers.

Hellll yeahhhh

love it and hey great if people still want to buy your stuff and show it off to the world, on a wall in the house, maybe they don't have a spot, I get it and that's a hard market.

Your method was the way I learned how to do this at school!!

Thank you very much Megan. I'm a teacher in graphic design, but never printed myself. I always left that to other people, but next school year I want to experiment with my students to do some screen printing without the hussle of using emulsion :-) So thank you again for your very educational video.

Thank you very informative video!!! Your very beautiful by the way 😍😎

Thank u for sharing your method! This is exactly what I wanted to do but so many tutorials do it traditionally. I wasn’t sure if I did it differently that the ink/paint would transfer well and stay. Thank u again

Speed ball speed ball speed ball😂

Thabks so much super interesting!

I took screen printing in college and only used the emulsion method but I really like the idea of this method! I wonder why they opted for the other way in my class? I was just at the store today and picked up some supplies. 👍🏻

LOVE THIS SOOOO MUCH! I'll try not to FUCK THIS UP

What about drawing straight on the shirt?? I mean itd skip like a million steps ha.

You are intelligent, creative, and adorable. This was a treat to watch.

thank you. love your energy

Very helpful thx!

Excellent registration!

This was SUPER helpful! My mind works similar to yours - the whole photo emulsion thing being to far out there. This method totally makes sense to me and I bought all the supplies after watching! I’ve wanted to screen print for a while but have been intimidated, thank you for making it feel accessible.

I do art prints and small things and I’ve been wanting to make clothes on a budget with my art and this is so so helpful. I’m completely new to this so I think I’ll start with the block printing as it looks easier for me personally to start with! This video covered all my basis thank u :)

❤🌹💜your video is real helpful 😊

Thanks so much for sharing. I’ve worked with emulsion and the exposure is so hit or miss. Done with it.
