Trendy Blanks

Had to look up cool blank swags for screening projects and a good good friend (nob) turned me onto trendyblanks.com. They've got everything from plan shirts, cardigans, you know standard corporate swag to blank messenger bags, hoodies and to beanies. Tots awesome for like derby swag right (including underpants woooo)? I can order all sorts of amounts and there's no minimum. Sure beats some of the other sites.

Game on.

Printing???

So I'm pondering whether to get a silk screen kit since Urban Outfitters has the Speedball kit, which runs about $64 . Not that I want to make t-shirts like every frat boy, I wanted to use them on some custom stationary. I know I will never be able to compete with the Letter Press invitations and at more than $3000+ for an actual machine, I don’t think I will be getting one anytime soon.

Then I found out there’s a cute little machine fromm Japan called Print Gocco by Riso. It looks so cute and easy, except that will run me about $100+ with machine and accessories all originating in Japan. So each time I need to buy a need screen, it’ll be shipped from Japan.

While I was hunting around on EBay, I came across EZScreenPrint. After watching their how to videos and seeing some of the gorgeous pieces made by their customers. I think I will be giving this a try. Still, I’d like any input from crafty folks at what their experience with silk screen, Gocco, etc printing on paper is?

Check out this baby sling. It’s sooo beautiful. Does anyone have a pattern for a baby sling and want to test out a couple of these with me? I think this would look quite beautiful combined with Tori's Plant Torture Technique.
