When I woke up back in January 2009 with the impulsive idea of starting a blog I'm not sure I had any expectations of how it would turn out. But I can tell you this, so far this little blog has exceeded anything I'd hoped it would be, and I'm looking forward to all the crafty possibilities 2012 holds.
Today is my three year blogiversary so we're going to celebrate by having a giveaway!

ReplyDeleteI love silk screening! I have a couple of fun ideas I'd like to get onto some fabric so a silk screening kit would be fantastic. Thanks for the giveaway. :-)
ReplyDeleteI haven't ever tried silk screening, but have always wanted to. I would use this to make my hubby some t-shirts for his upcoming b-day. Thanks for the giveaway

Ack, my boyfriend and I tried silkscreening once. It was sooo messy that he's been discouraged to try it again, but I hope this kit helps. Thanks so much for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI've been thinking I would like to try my hand at silk-screening! I would love to be entered in your giveaway - thanks! Congratulations on your third bloggerversary! :)
ReplyDeleteThis would be awesome to win! I would definitely use this to make shirts with my teens - they are always painting or ironing on things to shirts for their classes & friends, so this would be a much better and professional-looking finish for them!
ReplyDeletei always wanted to learn how to screen print.. if i won i think id use it to make some pillows for my bedroom or a tote bag :) raineoc@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteFun! I've never tried silk screening before but have always wanted to.

I've never done this before but I would love to try! Thanks for the opportunity!
ReplyDeleteI have made t's for my kids with iron on and fabric paint but I would love to try silk screening!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your Blogiversary!
ReplyDeleteIf I won the kit, I'd print silhouettes of my dogs' heads on pillow covers. Emily and Yoda's crates are in the family room, so we'd use the pillows on the sofa in that room
This would be my first attempt at silk-screening but I'm game to try!
ReplyDeleteI have never done screen printing before but it is something I am definitely interested in. Being a huge DIYer and aspiring fashion designer applying my designs and ideas to fabric is something I have been doing and this could make it even easier! I'm not sure if my email is in my profile so here it is rhinestoneddreams@aol.com!
ReplyDeleteI tried silk screening years ago with another product. Would love to see how Plaid has improved it.
ReplyDeleteHappy three years of blogging!
ReplyDeleteI have never tried silk screening, and I think I would use the kit to make some fabric backgrounds for aceos, picture frames, and whatever else I could think of!
I've done silk screening since college, and I've taught it in public schools, but I've never used a system as easy as Plaid's Simply Screen! Even people who've never silk screened before are successful!!!
ReplyDeleteHappy blogiversary! I've never screen printed though I've been wanting to. Thanks for the chance.
ReplyDeleteI have not done silk screen - but have certainly purchased many a silk screen item!! I love the look - and would love to use it to design some wonderful prints for children - starting with my twin neices and ending with my 80+ mother -- all children at heart! I can't wait!!!
ReplyDeleteI love this lesser expensive version of screening. If I won, I would use it to make some T-shirts of ocean scenes for me and my sister to wear when we take our trips to Florida for rest and relaxation.
ReplyDeletei've never silk screened before but the kit looks super easy!
ReplyDeleteDid silk screening in high school, and have been wanting to give it a go again. I have neices and nephew who would love tee shirt that are personalized just for them, thats what I would start with. The I would be all set to get these creative juices flowing and make a variety of projects that have been sitting on the back burner for a long long time. Congrats on the 3 yrs, hope you have many more to follow.

ReplyDeleteI have been wondering how to do silk screening. There are so many simple designs I would love to try. It is very kind of you to make this available to someone. Happy Anniversary, and Happy Blogging.
