The Printing Process

Screenprinting my own tee has always been a dream of mine. There is just something wonderful and exciting about wearing your own design!

Maren and I are blessed to know a screenprinting master who is willing to patiently teach us the ropes. (Wayne @ Skyward Impressions)

We are still learning the entire process, but are happy to be able to hand print our very own tees to share with y'all.

Here are a few photos! (Come and get the new tees at Urbanestics Underground in Ankeny, IA this saturday!)

Rocket Science



I just wanted to share a cool find with you guys! Etsy featured the Rocket Science Shop in their Manly Quest article. If your dad or boyfriend is anything like mine, then he's always got a pen or pencil in his pocket. What better way to protect your pocket than to get one of these? And fashionable too!
