So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Homemade Funny T Shirt Transfers

By Justin Beir


Everybody loves t shirts. Aside from being the most comfortable thing to wear for everyday use, you can also enjoy cute and funny designs on it. There are a lot of t shirt companies that sell shirts with different designs. Perhaps t shirts will never be out of style, but that doesn't mean that you can't do anything to change its design. There are a number of ways to place designs on your shirts. The two most common ways of printing designs on shirts would be screen printing and heat transfers. Heat transfers are fairly easier to do. In fact, you can do your very own funny t shirt transfers.

Although there are a lot of cheap funny shirts being sold, it's really easy to make homemade funny t shirt transfers. To help you out with this homemade project, here are some very helpful tips. First off, you need to get blank shirts. The style and shirt colour will depend on you. Make sure that you are going to buy a blank shirt; this means that it will be a plain coloured shirt with no print on it. If you already have a design in mind and know what colours the design will be on, it would be best to get blank shirts that would match the colours of your design. You can also choose to use old shirts that you already have if you really want to save up.

Once you have your blank shirts, the next item on the list before you start printing your funny t shirt transfers will be transfer papers. You will need this special paper to print your designs on before going through the process of heat transfer and finally get your design printed on your shirt. One thing you should be aware of is that there are two types of transfer papers: the dark transfer paper and the light transfer paper. This corresponds to what colour your shirt will be. So if you are printing on a light shirt, you will need a light transfer paper. On the other hand, you will need a dark transfer paper for shirts with darker shades.

Now all you need to do is to get your design printed. However, before you print your design on the transfer paper, make sure that you flip it over to its mirror image. This is to ensure that the design you intended to be printed on the shirt will come out the right way. Once the design has been edited and printed on your transfer paper, you are now ready to do the final step of your funny t shirt transfers.

Now all you need to do is to heat up your iron and start transferring the design. Make sure you bring the iron to just the right heat to avoid burning the transfer paper. You will also need to place a hard, flat object under the area of the shirt that you will be transferring the design to. Once you have done this, all you need to do is to iron on top of the paper for 3-4 minutes to ensure that the funny t shirt transfers will be successful.
