How to Silkscreen a T-Shirt at Home

I found some good videos on YouTube about how to make you own screen prints at home using a cheep hoop, fabric paper, glue, and of course paint and a t-shirt. This way you don't need any heavy duty/expensive equipment. The lady uses a large stiching hoop that you can buy at just about any craft or fabric store. She then stretches a really this fabric with loose stiching over the hoop, making sure it is very tight. She printed the artwork off her computer and traced it on the screen. Then she glued all the parts she didn't want color, let it dry, and wa-la she was ready for printing!
