**LEARN * ABOUT * OUR * PROCESS**
We silkscreen the traditional way, no machines just our 2 sets of hands (and occasionally our children's). Silkscreening is a method of pulling ink through a prepared screen/mesh onto an object (i.e. our tees), the ink flows through the empty space in the mesh (our applied design) leaving the image behind. It is a very old method of printing and one which we really love. We love screen printing shirts!!
Our tapestries are all hand drawn and painted on heavy black cotton. We begin with the drawing, next we use a few white layers of acrylic so that the last layers of UV colour really pop. It is a very long process, lasting many hours/days/weeks till the final piece is complete. Each piece is completely unique, we only do one of each design and painted with love.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
**ECO * COMMITMENT**
We love our environment and so we do our best to work efficiently and eco-friendly.
Our screens are always reused. Once a design is retired or worn out we clean/reuse the mesh and frame.
We only use non-toxic water based acrylic ink on our tees and tapestries and save excess ink for interesting one of kind prints.
We pre-wash our tees with biodegradable detergent and hang them to dry (weather permitting, we're in Ottawa and winter is pretty long).
Don't be surprised if your package comes in either brown paper or an upcycled mailer, it's our intention to create as little waste as possible while shipping your goods.
