Catskills Bandana
I designed a Catskill themed Bandana for guest gifts at my wedding last summer. Here are some of the steps I took to create this one of a kind momentum: created original artwork in illustrator; sent artwork to be shot on my silkscreen frame; cut/sewn 100 cotton squares; dyed four different natural colors (hemp/Madder/Osage/Annatte); printed 2 different colors on 100 bandanas; created unique stickers explaining what they are! These were so much fun to make :) Below you will see part of my process.
Original artwork- inspired by the Catskills and the area around my wedding venue.
Screen created for printing!
Dying Process
So many beautiful colors! Highly recommend not to dye fabric in the hottest part of the year ;)
Screen Printing
Brad (my husband) was the best printer- it takes major muscles! I love the creative process.
Finish
love the imperfections, DIY screen printing gives you
