Screenprint a Large Christmas Gift Sack

Join us to make an extremely special and unique Christmas/gift sack for your favourite person in the festive workshop.

 

In this three hour session, from 1-4pm, a high-quality gift sack will be provided and you will be taught a screenprinting technique to produce something very special and original. These will be heat set for long-lasting use and will be able to be collected the following week (limited to 6).

 

By using screenprinting, unlike sacks featuring vinyl lettering, you are producing something that cannot peel off and once it is heat set it is washable at 40 degrees many times.

You will have the opportunity to learn some basic embroidery to adorn your rather wonderful personalised sack and have materials provided to do this if you know how to embroider already.

Itinerary:

We will start by looking at the three main methods of screenprint and you will be shown how you can do small-scale screenprinting at home cheaply.  Using our larger frames you will get used to handling the equipment and learning how to produce prints.  Once comfortable with the equipment you will start to design your print and recreate it for the screen.

 

Once happy you will make a test print and then reproduce your screenprint on your high-quality sack.  This will be left to dry and then heat set for you so that you can return to collect it the following Sunday or at another time by appointment.
