Turn your regular cloth napkins into a work of art with screen printing.
Screen printing is a unique way to create handmade images in batches, instead of making only a single image. Use screen printing to put your images on different materials and objects around the house. You can also personalize things such as cards, clothing and housewares. Choose images that are easy to identify and can be created in single or very few colors.
Household Items and Clothing
Freshen up some of your household items and clothing by screen printing unique designs onto them. Pillowcases, dishtowels, T-shirts, ties, tote bags and aprons all can be printed on especially if they have a single color to begin with. You may want a different pattern for each one, or you could make them all match. Choose a favorite image, such as a tree, animal, or natural item that can be easily identified when printed.
Quotes
Have a favorite quote that inspires you? Screen print it and put it up on the wall. You can use fabric, paper or other materials to print the quote onto. You can play around with the words making some larger than others.
Place Mats and Napkins
One idea for screen printing is to create an interesting dining experience by screen printing place mats with each family member's name on them or an image of something they are interested in. Fabric napkins are not only environmentally friendly, but they can also be screen printed with names or images. Even the tablecloth could have screen printed images across it or around the border.
Greetings
Send personal greetings by printing your own cards. You could screen print a number cards with one design that is suitable for many occasions, so that you always have cards handy for the upcoming birthday or celebration. If you're more enthusiastic, create different cards for various occasions such as birthday, anniversary or Christmas.
