Thank you so much! I spent quite a bit of money purchasing the EZ screen materials. I wasted two transparencies trying to make it work. I thought my printer didn’t print dark enough. But I was doing the black on top and setting that in the sun, you flipped it over so the transparency was showing in the sun! Thank you I was doing it wrong. I will try this way. I hope it works. Any advice you can give me would be greatly appreciated.
I’ve bought these stencils before to use on quilts. I pounce a chalk pad over the stencil to transfer the image into the quilts. It works like a charm. Now I know how they’re made! TYFS, Kim & Garrett!!
Very useful explanation! Thanks! If I make a smaller stencil than yours, can I put it under a UV lamp like the ones used for nail art, instead of putting it in direct sunlight?
Questions ☺️ So you mention putting it on the glass the right way, what is the right way? Ink up or down? Water, is water used to be cold or warm or doesn’t matter? And can you use this type of stencil on sanded pine wood? Surprised at the any paint use 👍. Thanks for the lesson 👍 BTW, love his energy 😂
Just make sure the image is mirrored, the ink doesn't matter. We used cold tap water. Yep, you can use it on sanded pine, but I would dab the paint to prevent bleeding.
You guys are an inspiration to all. I really LOVE your videos. At first, Garrett was a bit much, but, I’ve grown to just LOVE that guy, he’s hysterical! Keep up the GREAT work
Firstly.. Love this re usable stencil method. Question: Did you use normal printing on the printable transparency paper? New to this all! Lot to learn still!
I found something similar to the photo emulsion sheet but its sticky backed material and reusable over and over again. Any idea what that is called? This was great! I was relieved to know I wouldn't have to buy a 200 dollar light machine to do this. TY!!
Awesome tutorial. I just bought a screen print kit today, level 1. I am always interested in watching videos like this, to help give me ideas of ways to get things done.
Great video, thanks. How many uses which these type of stencils? Does it depend on how many times they are washed? If so, wondering if just wiping them clean for use with same color will allow them to last longer?
I love this technique! I was just wondering, is there a way to put some kind of adhesive on the back to kinda make it like a chalk couture transfer? Just curious.
I know this is 3 years old but wonder if you could use like chalk paste on a surface? Kind of like chalk couture so we can wipe off and do a different season would be so cool and cheaper?
Hey Kaos! Yeah I think you could use the these emulsion sheet for airbrush, but you might have to apply it a little thicker. Let me know if you try it. Thanks! Garrett TheNotSoDemiGod
Great video thanks I’m very confused though. I’m not seeing holes in the stencil so can’t understand how the paints going through…are there holes? And I just can’t see them, you never really showed a close up of the blue sheet after it came out of the water.
I live in Sweden and we have almost 7 months with almost no sun at all. Can use any other kind of light energy? A lamp for example and which kind a watts do you recommend?
Both printers will work, just use the highest quality print setting so the black is as dark as possible. We just did a new version of this with IkonArt
Howdy ty for video love the design alot..im researching alot..do u know if we can reclaim these emulsion sheets like normal box screens using the cleaner and degreaser or if u just have to buy a new one? Theyre 10 bucks each for 8 by 11 so it would be nice. Perhaps i cant find anything about this w ezscreen due to possibly ruining it by doing so. It does say keep in fridge or at least 68 degrees when not used and lasts 6 months so perhaps not? Still I think id rather not use harsh Chen's. Eco factors using fabric paint or acrylic based other seems healthier overall. Ty
I have alot of plastic stencil and would lk to make my own is there a machine where I can place my plastic stencils in and copy over to a reusable self adhesive paper and beable to make my own... something like a scanner
This is amazing!!! Did you use fabric paint? How did you put the heat press to it without messing it up? I don't understand how this works but it's amazing. Does the paint bleed thru? I have so many questions lol.
You guys are simply amazing!! I have been wanting to do this but didn't know how to.. Thanks so much for making these videos u guys are awesome to watch
Great video and thanks for the content! This may sound like a stupid question but I'm wondering how the paint is transferring through if there's not a cut being made like on the Cricut. I'm looking to make reusable stencils for screen printing for shirts. Thanks for your help!
I want to know too! Are there actually cuts that have been burned into the material that the paint is getting through? I’m assuming yes but they aren’t shown
They are using an emulsion sheet. The black ink (on the transparent film they printed the dandelions on) will make the emulsion wash out after being exposed to sun or UV light basically, leaving clean cutouts wherever the ink touched the emulsion. Think of it like acid, it’ll eat through wherever the ink is.
I tried an image on a t-shirt but didn't get all the detail, the image was not as complicated as yours. Do you have any suggestions on how to get more of the detail to come out? The stencil was taped to the shirt around all 4 sides. Thanx for the help. Where did you get the image of the dandelion?
Hi! We offer the digital file and the wood letters. The digital file can be used to make a stencil with a cutting machine like a Crcut or a Silouettrr. Or you can cut wood letters using a laser like the Glowforge.
K & g spot on again !....do the images hold up after a washing or 15 ? I have a friend who gets a container from China with 15,000 totes a whack and prints onem...Ya given me ideas again !
Question. I have a design that is 8" x 24" (horizontal)- it's something I reuse over and over and for now, ugh, I'm 'cutting' a stencil each time. I'm putting the image on wood (with paint). I'd LOVE to find a better option. Do you know if this is a possibility - that sizing, to find a photo emulsion method for a design that is 8"x24" (thank you!)
thank you for the video: I have a couple of questions: 1) Do the black print has to be from a laser printer? 2) Does the exposure to the sun 1 minute will work no matter what time is it or where I'm located? since sometimes sun is stronger
Can you rinse the paint off the stencil and use it again in a few days months, etc? Or is it only reusable immediately using the same paint for both projects while it's still wet? Silk screenprinting businesses spray something on their emulsioned screens to wash the emulsion away once a job is complete so they can reuse the screens over and over. I'm not sure what they're using to weaken the emulsion so it can be sprayed away. I wouldn't want an ingredient in the paint to do the same thing and ruin a stencil.
Just came across your channel. New subby here. Question if I want to order the sheets, what exactly are they called. The link you provided , out of stock. So is there another name, as there's so much and similar online.
There's nothing better than doing an awesome project and getting a tan at the same time.
Ha! Right?! He's a multitasker...
We call that UV damage in the derm business.
GREAT video. I’ve not seen this type of stencil. LOVE the ability to obtain incredible detail. Thanks so much for your contributions to us all. 🙏

i know it's kinda randomly asking but do anyone know a good site to watch new series online ?
@Axton Michael Flixportal :D
@Charles Castiel Thanks, signed up and it seems like a nice service :) I really appreciate it!
@Axton Michael no problem :)
So I don't have to weed?!!!! My mind is blown away! Forever grateful!
Very useful explanation! Thanks! If I make a smaller stencil than yours, can I put it under a UV lamp like the ones used for nail art, instead of putting it in direct sunlight?
Much better than trying to cut one on a cricket! Multi use as well!!!
Questions ☺️
So you mention putting it on the glass the right way, what is the right way? Ink up or down?
Water, is water used to be cold or warm or doesn’t matter? And can you use this type of stencil on sanded pine wood? Surprised at the any paint use 👍. Thanks for the lesson 👍
BTW, love his energy 😂
I have the same questions.🤗

I’m glad you’re on board now! 🥰
Omg he did not just use pampered chef! Thank you for this video I have looked forever for a tutorial with no machine. ☺️ Thank you
Ha! Right?!! :) thanks Melina!
love ez screen print products so easy to use
Loved this. The EXSCREEN is not available. Any other suggestions or options?
Is there a video showing how you did the design to put on the grafix film?
Your personality alone is the reason I subscribed. Love it!
Aw thank youuuu!!
Wow! This is an old video and I just found it. I’ve never seen this way to do a stencil. Crazy cool. Thank you!
Lol right??
I see Kim is a Pampered Chef lover like I am. LOL. Great video for real people to use!
Firstly.. Love this re usable stencil method. Question: Did you use normal printing on the printable transparency paper? New to this all! Lot to learn still!
I was wondering what side you print it on
Thank you so much. You made this look easy.
Hi, many thanks for the funny and useful video
Do you thinks this will work for stencils for face painting, I mean paintings over skin for kids
thks
Those are awesome. So easy.
OMG you two are friggin' adorable! Haha! I can't wait to try this!
Please do!
"Some see WEED'S... Others see WISHES".
Can the stencil be used on the reverse side? Brilliant video thank you 👍😷👍
You two are the best, love your videos. I’m in Nova Scotia, hoping my Amazon store carries these products.
Wow! Great tip. Never would have thought of that. Thanks.
Great video but what did you mean when said put the transparency facing in the right direction. Thank you
Love it! Beautiful detail and print!
I found something similar to the photo emulsion sheet but its sticky backed material and reusable over and over again. Any idea what that is called? This was great! I was relieved to know I wouldn't have to buy a 200 dollar light machine to do this. TY!!
Yes, IkonArt has a sticky version.
Awesome tutorial. I just bought a screen print kit today, level 1. I am always interested in watching videos like this, to help give me ideas of ways to get things done.
Omg!!!! Where is the LOVE button???????????? It's like you read my mind! I wanted to learn how to do this!!!!
Ps- almost 11,000 subscribers!!!!!!
Thanks Jess! It's so easy! You gotta try it! And yes, eeek 11k!
Thanks guys! Simple is always good, for me at least ;).
Great video, thanks. How many uses which these type of stencils? Does it depend on how many times they are washed? If so, wondering if just wiping them clean for use with same color will allow them to last longer?

I know this is 3 years old but wonder if you could use like chalk paste on a surface? Kind of like chalk couture so we can wipe off and do a different season would be so cool and cheaper?
Could you out links to other products mentioned like the "cricket" and the "easy press".
Hello, so did you try it with chalk couture paste or ink?? also did you try any adhesive yet?
You guys are so incredibly adorable! Thank you for this video this helped a lot.
Thank you Monica! :)
That's awesome. I might try that
It works great! I definitely recommend it for something you will make multiples of.
Awesome video! (over a year later)
can I use this with an airbrush? and would it need to be the specific emulsion paper mentioned in this video...
Hey Kaos! Yeah I think you could use the these emulsion sheet for airbrush, but you might have to apply it a little thicker. Let me know if you try it. Thanks! Garrett TheNotSoDemiGod
Great video thanks I’m very confused though. I’m not seeing holes in the stencil so can’t understand how the paints going through…are there holes? And I just can’t see them, you never really showed a close up of the blue sheet after it came out of the water.
Yes, it's a screen so where the emulsion is rinsed there's screen material
@@KimandGarrettmakeit thank you so much for answering an older video. Appreciate you taking the time.
Love this💕💜 You two are adorable!
You are so kind!
That was so cool! im a 1st time watcher, i loved it! but how do you get the design on that transparency sheet?
Most printers will work. Just use the tranperancy film as you would loaded into the paper tray.
Will this work with laser printers?
Select the transparency film for your specific printer. Most will say Ink Jet transparency film. Maybe laser
Can you do a video on how you guys clean the screens?
Oh we should!
Could this stencil be used, using multiple colored paints within the pattern?
Loved your video! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
I live in Sweden and we have almost 7 months with almost no sun at all. Can use any other kind of light energy? A lamp for example and which kind a watts do you recommend?
roberta castro I use black light
Yes! Just Google photo emulsion bulb!
This is Awesome! Love the tote bag.
Just what i was looking for! Does it matter what type of printer? Laser or inkjet???ty
Both printers will work, just use the highest quality print setting so the black is as dark as possible. We just did a new version of this with IkonArt
Thank you for this! Is it possible to cut the emulsion sheet and clear sheet? I want to screenprint onto something smaller
Hi Caleb! Yes, you can easily cut both smaller.
@@KimandGarrettmakeit Thanks so much for the reply!
This is awesome! I almost purchased a machine that had the same results. Thanks so much!
Great to hear!
Y'all are incredible!
Very nice! The bag really makes your outfit 😋what is the care of the stencil? Have to wash the paint off before it dries?
Lee O I had the same question.
Care and life of stencil?
The most important thing is to clean it quickly. Do not let it dry. We let ours get too dry and it didnt coat correctly.
Kim and Garrett make it - what is the best way to clean them?
Warm water and a small amount of dishsoap.
Howdy ty for video love the design alot..im researching alot..do u know if we can reclaim these emulsion sheets like normal box screens using the cleaner and degreaser or if u just have to buy a new one?

I have alot of plastic stencil and would lk to make my own is there a machine where I can place my plastic stencils in and copy over to a reusable self adhesive paper and beable to make my own... something like a scanner
Great idea! Thanks!
WOW!!!!!!!! That's awesome!!!! How many times do you think you can use the stencil? Do you think any other type of paint would work?
Hi Debbie! It says you can use it then 100's of times!
@@KimandGarrettmakeit AWESOME!!!
Thanks for replying !
Perfect. Thanks
Love what you two do...Great projects...
Thanks so much!
This is amazing!!! Did you use fabric paint? How did you put the heat press to it without messing it up? I don't understand how this works but it's amazing. Does the paint bleed thru? I have so many questions lol.
You made it so fun to watch this video! Learned a lot - thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Have you tried one of these screens with your wood burning gel?
No, but that sounds like a good idea.
Thanks
Love love love! Thank you for this info!
You guys are simply amazing!! I have been wanting to do this but didn't know how to.. Thanks so much for making these videos u guys are awesome to watch
Thanks for watching Jill!
Seriously you guys are awesome so dun to watch oh and I love the stensil idea
Very good guys!
Thanks!!!
Great video and thanks for the content! This may sound like a stupid question but I'm wondering how the paint is transferring through if there's not a cut being made like on the Cricut. I'm looking to make reusable stencils for screen printing for shirts. Thanks for your help!
I have exactly the same question. Glad I'm not the only one.
Yup I have the same question. How come not many are asking
I want to know too! Are there actually cuts that have been burned into the material that the paint is getting through? I’m assuming yes but they aren’t shown
I think I heard them say it was “mesh”. So if that’s the case it has a screen 🤷🏻♀️
They are using an emulsion sheet. The black ink (on the transparent film they printed the dandelions on) will make the emulsion wash out after being exposed to sun or UV light basically, leaving clean cutouts wherever the ink touched the emulsion. Think of it like acid, it’ll eat through wherever the ink is.
So amazing. Love it😀😀😀
Thanks Tina! It IS so cool!
Is the acrylic paint you're using mixed with a medium or just straight acrylic paint
I tried an image on a t-shirt but didn't get all the detail, the image was not as complicated as yours. Do you have any suggestions on how to get more of the detail to come out? The stencil was taped to the shirt around all 4 sides. Thanx for the help. Where did you get the image of the dandelion?
Thank you so much for sharing this information ❤️ it was just what I was looking for. Your generosity of sharing your info is greatly appreciated.
You are so welcome!
I love the bag!! Great job both of you!!
Thanks Marie!
Oh my gosh, I think this is exactly what I've been looking for! BTW love watching you guys!
Yes! We felt the same way when we found out about it. It was easy and worked great!
Kim and Garrett make it I really need to try it! It’s kind of expensive. I wonder how many times you can reuse it? 🤷♀️
This technique is sooo cool! Thank you for the video. Ya'll are so awesome together!
Glad you enjoyed it!
so I'm sorry you prob said it but you buy the actual stencil/picture correct? THANK YOU!
Hi! We offer the digital file and the wood letters. The digital file can be used to make a stencil with a cutting machine like a Crcut or a Silouettrr. Or you can cut wood letters using a laser like the Glowforge.
K & g spot on again !....do the images hold up after a washing or 15 ? I have a friend who gets a container from China with 15,000 totes a whack and prints onem...Ya given me ideas again !
Yep, EZ Screenprint says they'll last for 100's of uses!
Spatula... love you guys!
what is the right direction for the tansparency?
I’m wondering too...is the ink up or down? You just said to lay it the right way but I don’t know which way is right, lol
Very similar to how you process old slide film
Any link to an emulsion paper on amazon nowadays? The EZscreenprint sheets are no longer available 😢
Question. I have a design that is 8" x 24" (horizontal)- it's something I reuse over and over and for now, ugh, I'm 'cutting' a stencil each time. I'm putting the image on wood (with paint). I'd LOVE to find a better option. Do you know if this is a possibility - that sizing, to find a photo emulsion method for a design that is 8"x24" (thank you!)
Could I use a black and white photo for this?
thank you for the video: I have a couple of questions:
1) Do the black print has to be from a laser printer?
2) Does the exposure to the sun 1 minute will work no matter what time is it or where I'm located? since sometimes sun is stronger
So much fun, thank you
Our pleasure!

Love these projects!
Thanks for watching Dorothy!
I just love u guys!
Thanks!
I do spray painting. Would that end up sticking to my paint or is there an adhesive on it where it'll just peel off no problem?
Can't find this stuff anywhere in the UK where it's produced in the UK. It's all imported and thus incredibly expensive!
Cant wait to try this
You both are awesome...love all your projects 👍
Cool project. Too much work for me but enjoyed watching you guys do it. Garrett, the bag looks great on you😝
Lol, but it was so easy! Yes. I thought the bag shot was funny too :)
Excuse me - would you be able to use a spray paint instead of the paint and squidgy ?
Wow great job
Thanks so much!
You are such a great couple ❤️
So sweet thank you!
OMG.. you guys made me laugh!
Him carrying the bag😂 PRICELESS!
Can this be used with the wood burning mix you make?
Im wondering if these stencils would work on cake 🤔 great job!
ooooh maybe
Just came across your channel. New subby here. Question if I want to order the sheets, what exactly are they called. The link you provided , out of stock. So is there another name, as there's so much and similar online.
You guys are too funny! 💙
Can you please send the emulsion sheets link? I wish I had seen your page b4 I ordered a stencil burner machine!
