Heat transfers onto fabric


























These are some samples of foil on fabric and disperse paper. I am looking at the idea of antlers to create a Christmas tote bag which can be sold at the 'Brown day charity fundraiser'. I created these at home using an iron rather than using the heat press which was a complete disaster leading to burning through a towel and a blanket on my carpet because we don't have a ironing board. I am now even more determined to do well on this project to make up for the £100 insurance excess I have to pay for my carpet. The foils also didn't work as well as they do when using the heat press at college. I like effects of the the copper foil however feel that the red and gold are too brash. I think the coloured heat transfers have some lovely colours. I would like to try these out on paper.
