On June 30th I will be removing my silk screen inventory from Etsy and moving to a group I created on Facebook . Etsy has changed too much over the past few years and no longer fully supports Handmade as was promised all those years ago. Very sad, but I need to do what is best for my business. Please follow me to Facebook and join the group 🙂 https://www.facebook.com/groups/silkscreens4sale/ I have many new designs available. Something for everyone 🙂
I used to make and sell screen print stencils. I loved the process of designing them. Now I find that I am now hooked on making clear stamps to use in my scrap mokume gane experiments. 🙂
I used 2 stencils on these dragonfly wings
Silk screens are very easy to make since a fabulous product hit the market a few years back. It’s called Photo-Ez. You just need a black & white image, sunshine and a few other supplies to make the screens.
You should check out Desiree’s web site for instruction on making and using silk screens. She very kindly created a tutorial that was very helpful when I began using Photo-Ez. Part 1 Part 2
Three well known polymer clay artists that use screen print stencils and teach classes with stencils are Seth Savarick Martha Aleo
and Gwen Gibson, who has a great video called Creations Du Jour 2.
Some Helpful links:
Diane Villano has a nice picture tutorial you might want to check out.
Janice Abarbanel shares a way to make a light table for exposing the stencils.
Lisa Pavelka was on Carol Duvall and made the pretties journal cover. Here are the instructions.
You can see some of my silk screens in action in this Polymer Clay TV Epiosde
If after reading all this great info you have decided you want to try your hand at making silk screen stencils I suggest you buy from one of these two places EZ Screenprint
Ginny Eckly at PhotoEZ Silk Screen
I have purchased from both places and recommend the sellers.
