TASTER: Screen Printing with deColourant products with Dee Paramour
FREE Tasters (Textile Art) • Educational, G, 01-Jan-2014
Dee Paramour shows us how to use deColourant®and deColourant® Plus to have a significant effect with thermofax screens, but you could think about using stencils from your painting days, or quilting stencils would work well too.
The product is heat-activated but entirely safe and easy to wash out. Using the iron activates the effect, and it can be used very effectively on cards and fabric.
The items shown behind Dee have all been made with fabrics created using the two products. Dee shows us lots of ideas in her interview – Meet Dee Paramour.
deColourant® removes the color from Natural Fibre fabrics and paper, available in an easy-to-apply creme or aerosol spray – colorant Mist.
Apply it, heat it, and the color is removed.
deColourant® Plus has pigment added and comes in a unique 60 brilliant colors in 7 colorways. We have selected just one trio color pack to add to the shop items.
This idea is great for children as it is entirely safe and non-toxic. You could think about customizing their clothes.
deColourant® and deColourant® Plus are also great products that cardmakers can use.
You can also meet Dee Pamour in our interview section of videos and see other workshops by her here on the site.
