I want to make some t-shirts.  I remember something about ironing? How do you do it? I remember making my own plates when I was little.  Want to make my own tshirts.

I vcame across a shop which sells some kind of transfers, you iron them onto the t-shirts. I got one done for a friend of mine and it worked really well. As well as getting various illustations, you also have choice of the letters needed to make up whatever message you want.

cool. I know there is a kit out there somewhere.  As everyone knows I'm a big fan of Pierre Trudeau.  I'd like to make a couple t-shirts with his face on them so I get looks by people in the mall when they go whose that? lol!
That or tommy douglas and olof palme.

Too bad my favourite Trudeau pic expired on CBC so now I can't get it anymore.

Thanks for the link problem with this I think is that most of the things I want to put on a tshirt are pictures of people lots of detail.

Yeah Gophie, T Doug, funny thing is all the righties who watch 24 would demand there beloved Jack Bauer be replaced if they knew Kiefer's grandpa was a socialist. lol

You should go to a craft store and get one of those kits. They sheets you can photocopy your favorite pictures then you just peel it off and iron the image onto your t-shirt.
