What it is:
An instructional DVD with everything you need to know to silkscreen your own amazing designs.
Why we love it:
Crafty people are not easy to shop for. They tend to compulsively collect interesting craft sets, tools and other handy items, and of course they're always making things. They've already got all the yarn, beading kits, macrame sets, glass painting, candle-making, cross-stitching, and embroidery they could ever, ever need, so, how do you find them something new and exciting to do? We leveled this challenge at the vast world of the Internet, and lo, we were not disappointed. Kingi Carpenter, a Toronto based fashion designer, has taken pity on all those bored crafters out there, providing them with a new and exciting challenge. Her silkscreen workshop DVD will teach them everything they need to know about silkscreening on shirts, bags, and more, all to a swingin' soundtrack. For the truly emboldened, she even offers tips on how to start your own silkscreening business on a budget. Open up a new crafty avenue for your favorite design bug, they will not be disappointed.
