How to Sun Print | DIY Cyanotype ・ ゚✧
This detailed tutorial will walk you through all the steps towards making your own sun printed t-shirt using a photograph of your choice! You will be taught what supplies to buy, how to turn your photos into film negatives, and the exposure technique that gets you that VIBRANT sun dyed image.
NOTE: Keep in mind this process is TRIAL AND ERROR and what works for me may not work for you right away. I’ve been doing this for years and still have to tinker around with exposure times, dye application, etc…don’t be discouraged by this as it’s part of the creative process! Just try again ❤️

Omg yes, I’ve done that! Well, just the cover 😊 but if you did the entire zine I’d cry that’s such a good idea. I have a friend that makes cyanotype zines on paper it’s sooo rad.

No problem! I haven’t tried it on anything besides shirts, personally. I’d check out the jacquard website listed in my description to learn more on that, have fun!! 😍
It's a big contact print....At first, wondered what stopped the developing process.... With film, there's developer, stop and fix... That looks like fun! A great way to make custom T-shirts for a small event, as well... How small of an image will it do? Could you use that on, say, a white ( or light color) trucker's type hat?
@brattyxbre
Ай бұрын
Absolutely! It will be trickier to get the print to lay out on a hat, but doable 👍🏽 Works with small prints and even oversized prints, just takes some trial and error to get it right. Have fun with it!!
You tell this story so cool! Thanks for sharing it with us, but I have a question, if we don’t access to “ Solar Fast liquid” how can we made something like this? Do you know any formula that help us?
@brattyxbre
Ай бұрын
There are lots of different cyanotype dyes you can use for this, not just solar fast! Just look up “cyanotype dye” and a couple different brands should pop up. Have fun making your art 🥰
so if I washed it with solarwash for example. After wearing it, can I wash it in the washing machine with normal clothes and normal detergent?
@brattyxbre
10 күн бұрын
Yes, after you stop exposure with that first wash it will be fine with other detergent/laundry afterwards 😊
Do you use this for paper any? If so what are your thoughts and results? GREAT video thanks!!!

When using the free generator on jacquard do we only have to make the print negative? You said you invert the photo when using photoshop.
@brattyxbre
8 күн бұрын
When I use photoshop there are two steps: 1) turn it into black and white And then 2) invert that black and white image The generator, however, does both of those steps for you so you don’t have to worry about multiple steps!
how do you make the negatives you use?

At the end of the video I explain the wash you need to stop exposure (solar fast detergent) you use this once, right after printing. Then moving forward you can use standard detergent. I use Gain or an organic detergent that’s gentle on clothes, you’ll have to see what works for you. It’s all trial and error and I don’t have a “right” answer do you unfortunately. I only share what I do and hope it works! :)
