There is still time to enter to win the final Grand Prize for our Create. Give. Enjoy! So leave a comment for a chance to win a Cricut Create.

Provo Craft has done it again with the Yudu screen printing system. This all inclusive system makes screen printing easy for the home crafter. But the creative possibilites go way beyond t-shirts.

3_project_hero_mThis shirt reminds me of one I recently found in a Park City, UT boutique – for $200! And all the instructions are available right on the Yudu website. You will also find instructions and techniques for printing on all types of materials. A little practice, the included videos, along with the tutorials available on the Yudu website, make short work of creating your first print.

Erin Basset has a series of Yudu projects on her blog including this very trendy chandelier.

dolls

Artist Ruth Barrera created these simple dolls by printing her image onto flat fabric pieces. She then cut, stitched, and stuffed them to makes these adorable handmade dolls. This idea would also make a great party favor or school project.

300And the Yudu is not just for fabric. I created dozens of these simple glittered note cards to use during the holidays. I printed onto the cardstock just as you would fabric and while the ink was still wet, sprinkled on some fine glitter.

The Yudu is the perfect gift for any crafter, and the perfect tool for creating gifts for anyone on your list.

Join us tomorrow morning for the final winners circle of Create. Give. Enjoy!

    Silk screening the old fashioned way is difficult to say the least. This Yudo looks amazingly easy. My creative little mind is thinking up all sorts of projects that I’d love to try and show my grandaughters. They also think its the “neatest” thanks for a chance to win one.

    We have been using our Yudu for 3 weeks and we are loving it. We have made t-shirts and paper products from our own designs.

    There is a bit of a learning curve to pulling the ink on your design, but we have had great results and have learned a lot about getting the emulsion sheet to adhere properly.

    It is great fun to see your design come to life.

    I’m sold. I have two little boys and the cool, trendy shirts for them are so expensive in the stores. I would love to be able to make them. You can always find plain, solid color shirts for a steal.
