hey, Jules, if u'll google 'altered cutlery/books/boxes/CDs/dominos/bottles/dolls and pretty much any object u can think of, and click on 'images' - the variety and imaginative ideas that will pour through yr computer - will blow yr mind, and the amount of inspiration is endless. very recommended.

Great way to show off / recombine all those lovely bits into something more than the sum of the parts. Also love Dalia's idea of 'altered cutlery' haven't heard the phrase before but so apt!

I am so AMAZED when someone takes "Items" and turns them into something beautiful!!!! I LOVE THIS!! If I could take 1/2 the crap I have around here and do this,I would... but I don't have this talent!!! Hence why "Art" is so free flowing and if we ALL did the SAME thing...Art would become quite Borish!...I'm gonna have to get "My Stuff" around,take pics and see if anyone wants me to send it to them so they can make more beautiful projects!!! Everyday I touch something in my "stuff bin" and think to myself.... OMG!!!! So and so would love this or use it!!! Hay Gaz!!! Maybe we should start a once a month "stuff" swap on here???????

So once i have my image printed onto transparency film, I take my Ezscreen silk screen which has been coated in light sensitive emulsion (These sheets come pre-coated so they are ready to use). Place it onto a black board, then place the transparency image on top (this part needs to be done in a dark room with no direct sunlight). I take it outside and expose it for 1 minute and 40 seconds (but time varies depending on time of day and strength of sunlight). After i have exposed the image i place it into a tub of water for around 5 - 8 minutes. Then i rinse the screen out under fast running water until the unexposed area (the black) washes away. I then expose the screen to the sun for a further 20mins to completely harden the light sensitive emulsion.
And this is the completed screen ready for printing. I simply use an old credit card to spread the ink over the screen making sure i do one complete full stroke across the screen (holding the credit card at a 45 degree angle). I immediately wash the screen out under fast flowing water and pat dry. I use fabric screen printing ink which washes out in water (which makes the process easy).
I love this product, their website is http://ezscreenprint.com/ (for full instructions and details on how to purchase this awesome product).
