i made a t-shirt with eisley's "E" logo.
i used iron-on transfer paper and cut it out so there wasn't any white showing and the end result...





i wore it at webster hall and some people liked it, including beardo, heh.

the crappy part is that i only washed it once (in cold and dried in low heat) and it's already starting to get that cracked look. which looks cool right now because it has that vintage look (which isn't seen in the photo), but it's gonna suck because after several washes, it'll be gone. i wanna learn screenprinting/silkscreening so the print will stay longer.

I think you are supposed to hand wash iron ons.

Try putting soap on your hands first.

Oh, and don't use muddy water.

Clean water, eh? I'll try it out. Have to go to my neighbor's well though. They have the best water in the whole municipality of Waterloo. It's only about a half hour by horse.

Well, maybe that's how it works in the big city, but out here in the fine municipality of Waterloo, in the great territory of Tejas, we don't have such new-fangled things like e-lectricity and running water. *spits into a spitoon* Yup, yup, yup. I reckon I'll just saddle up Bessie at sun-up tomorrow and go see my neighbor about gettin' some of that fine water of his.
