Announcement    Welcome to our shop! We are here to meet your Thermofax screen printing needs. Our shipping policy has been adjusted to cover increased USPS postal rates. We are sorry that we can no longer offer international shipping except for Canada; the cost has become prohibitive and far exceeds the cost of our product. We provide original and custom Thermofax screens for DIY screen printing. IMAGES FOR CUSTOM SCREENS MUST: 1) BE YOUR ORIGINAL ARTWORK, or 2) BE LICENSED/APPROVED FOR YOUR USE BY THE ORIGINAL ARTIST, or 3) BE IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN OR WITHOUT COPYRIGHT RESTRICTION. WE WILL NOT MAKE SCREENS FROM IMAGES WHERE COPYRIGHT IS QUESTIONABLE. Thermofax screens are like silk screens with a permanent image and without the wooden frame; edges are duct taped instead. We are happy to answer any questions you might have. We would love to feature your finished work on our Facebook page and blog!
Copyright statement: You are welcome to use our designs to create art for yourself or others, but we ask that you credit us for the design in any print materials that may accompany your work and contact us if you wish to sell items using our images.

On Etsy since 2012

We love thermofax screen printing and want to share it with the world!

Shop members

  • Elizabeth Gibson

    Maker, Designer, Co-Owner

    Elizabeth has always enjoyed making things and after discovering a common interest in quilting and all things "surface design" with Sue, the two of us embarked on this journey into thermofax screen printing and selling our designs on Etsy.

  • Susan Price

    Owner, Maker, Designer, Curator

    I've always been a "maker" - name just about any fiber handcraft, I've tried it! As an adult, quilting became my hobby of choice, which led to art quilting & surface design, which led to thermofax screen printing, so here I am, selling on Etsy!

To fulfill your order, you must provide us with certain information (which you authorized Etsy to provide to us), such as your name, email address, postal address, payment information, and the details of the product that you’re ordering. You may also choose to provide us with additional personal information for a custom order if you contact us directly.
Why We Need Your Information and How We Use It
We rely on a number of legal bases to collect, use, and share your information, including:
• as needed to provide our services, such as when we use your information to fulfill your order, to settle disputes, or to provide customer support;
• when you have provided your affirmative consent, which you may revoke at any time, such as by signing up for our mailing list;
• if necessary to comply with a legal obligation or court order or in connection with a legal claim, such as retaining information about your purchases if required by tax law; and
• as necessary for the purpose of our legitimate interests, if those legitimate interests are not overridden by your rights or interests, such as 1) providing and improving our services. We use your information to provide the services you requested and in our legitimate interest to improve our services; and 2) Compliance with the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use. We use your information as necessary to comply with our obligations under the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use.
Information Sharing and Disclosure
Information about our customers is important to our business. We share your personal information for very limited reasons and in limited circumstances, as follows:
• Etsy. We share information with Etsy as necessary to provide you our services and comply with our obligations under both the Etsy Seller Policy and Etsy Terms of Use.
• Service providers. We engage certain trusted third parties to perform functions and provide services to our shop, such as the US postal service for deliveries. We share your personal information with these third parties, but only to the extent necessary to perform these services.
• Business transfers. If we sell or merge our business, we may disclose your information as part of that transaction, only to the extent permitted by law.
• Compliance with laws. We may collect, use, retain, and share your information if we have a good faith belief that it is reasonably necessary to: (a) respond to legal process or to government requests; (b) enforce our agreements, terms and policies; (c) prevent, investigate, and address fraud and other illegal activity, security, or technical issues; or (d) protect the rights, property, and safety of our customers, or others.

We generally keep your data for the following time period: 4 years.
Transfers of Personal Information Outside the EU
• We may store and process your information through third-party hosting services in the US and other jurisdictions. As a result, we may transfer your personal information to a jurisdiction with different data protection and government surveillance laws than your jurisdiction. If we are deemed to transfer information about you outside of the EU, we rely on Privacy Shield as the legal basis for the transfer, as Mail Chimp is Privacy Shield certified.

Frequently asked questions

Sizing details

What is the largest size of my image can be on a small, medium, and large screen?
Small size is a maximum of 3.5 x 4 inches
Medium size is a maximum of 5 x 7 inches
Large size is a maximum of 7 x 9 inches
Any dimensions that fall between these maximums falls under the next size up.

Custom and personalized orders

Can you burn me a screen if the image has grey areas? Or if the image is in color? Images need to be high contrast black and white. Grey areas do not burn. If the image is in color, it needs to be converted to black and white. We will do this for an additional fee of $5.00; add the Photoshop Adjustments item to your shopping cart.

Care instructions

What type of paint can I use? Use paints formulated for textiles, or add a textile medium to acrylic craft paints. These paints will give your finished product a softer “hand”; non-textile paints would leave fabrics stiff. Of course, the intended purpose of your item should also be taken into consideration. It is less critical in a piece of wall art that will not be worn or washed. Some types of paint we use include: ProFab (made by prochemicalanddye.com), Speedball Fabric Printing Inks, Jacquard paints, Versatex paints (both Jacquard and Versatex are available from DharmaTrading.com), Simply Screen made by Plaid, and SoSoft made by DecoArt.

Custom and personalized orders

How do I send my image to you? You may send your image as a jpg file to PGFiber2Art@gmail.com
Can I send you my image via mail instead of electronically? The short answer is yes, if you want to send images via postal mail we can work with them. The long answer is the reason we prefer digital images. In order for an image to work with the thermofax machine, it has to contain carbon. That means drawings must be done with either carbon pencil or pen. Alternatively, a digital image must be printed with a laser printer or copy machine because the toner contains carbon. So if you send drawings, unless they are done with carbon, we would scan them so they can be printed digitally with a laser printer in order to make the screen.

Custom and personalized orders

Do you do the photo adjustments for me? Yes, we have an option in the Etsy shop to do an adjustment for you for a fee.

Custom and personalized orders

Can I send you something that is copyrighted by someone else? No, images must be in the public domain or your own work (photos, drawings, etc), or images that you own the copyright to.

Care instructions

What is the life/how many uses can you get from a screen? With proper care you should be able to pull hundreds of prints with your thermofax screen.

Custom and personalized orders

Do you give discounts? For multiple orders? Occasionally we offer specials to subscribers of our newsletter, previous customers, and Facebook followers.

Custom and personalized orders

How do I tell the size of my image in Photoshop or Phtoshop Elements? Under your image on the left it tells you at what percentage you are viewing the image and the dimensions. There is a dropdown menu that lets you choose “document dimensions” to see the size of your image. You could also see the dimensions by going to the Image menu, then Resize, which will show you the current dimensions.

Sizing details

To help with cost, can I put two smaller images on a medium or large screen? Yes, just be sure to leave enough room around both images to have space for cutting apart and adding the duct tape.
