Besides me, Christina and this sexy paralegal i roped into helping print t-shirts, everybody else must have gotten this memo that we’d be closed cuz of all the sunshine and heat.  That’s cool, guys, just let us know next time.

Well, we ended up spending most of the shift on the roof, getting inspired.  Then headed back in to print another large chunk of the Head & Hands t-shirts (they’re almost ready, guys, promise!).  We used this new fabric ink that doesn’t need to be ironed, and it worked out fine so far.  We haven’t tried them in a washing machine or anything for colorfastness, but it went on smoothly and cleaned up easily.  Gotta find out how many colors it comes in!

Um, blog, blog, blog, here’s a movie:
