i'll see how it goes

i like calligraphy, letterpress, want to learn screenprintin but havent gotten around to it

i like upcycling. finding discarded donations, riffin thru them, finding a shirt, mending any holes, sewing on it sometimes & then giving it to people who have consignment shops & stuff. recycling. saving what i can from landfills. repurposing. environmentally minded. a little tlc can give some clothes another lifetime of wear. that's a win to me.

Screen printing is pretty simple. They taught us in middle school shop class back in the day, as sort of a practical CAD project.

If I recall correctly, We drew the design on the computer. Printed it on heavy stock, cut it out, attached it to a screen made of 2X2 boards and window screen, then squeegeed ink through the screen onto the shirt.

That's the way I learned to do it too ☺️ There's also a fancy UV light way of doing it that gets much finer with the details.

Check out the #penstr #letters #fountainpens #artstr hashtags. I didn't start the #penstr tag but I definitely built it up. I try to post about fountain pens as much a I can which has been sparse lately but I'm working on a few things for the near future.

cool thank you!

And if you’ve got some pens or doodads or gadgets that you need to transport in a slick looking holder, check out #penroll

It’s a great place to find roll-up holders for just about anything!

I sew them to order. Pentographer’s got one!

Lies! I have three! And I need more.

You should definitely buy one or seven!

Didn’t want to doxx your penroll collection fren!
