With a few simple steps we were able to turn plain white cloth napkins into another unique addition to our lovely brunch affair!
Materials Needed:
iron
cloth napkins
iron-on/transfer paper
computer/printer
scissors
hard surface
The first step is to print your design on your transfer paper. Follow instructions on the paper packaging. Be sure to print a mirror-image. Try www.graphicsfairy.com for designs.
Cut out your design close to the edge. Solid shapes are easier to work with and yield the best results.
Place your design face-down on your napkin. You must work on a hard-surface.
Be sure to consult the instructions of your transfer paper.
Hold your pattern so it will not shift when you place the iron on top.
Our transfer paper required us to push down very hard for 20 seconds and then completely lift the iron and replace it for 20 more seconds.
Do not wiggle the iron or it may smudge your design.
Peel off the paper backing in one swoop. Be careful & make sure the design is secureto the fabric first. You may have to iron again.
Our paper told us to peel while warm for a matte finish and peel while cool for a glossy finish.
