I just used the screen printing adhesive and glitter with my 70 mesh screen today. So much fun!!! Made a simple t for my DD. Very simple to do-- FAQs are on my blog: http://withglitteringeyes.blogs...011/08/yudu-glitter.html.

Very cute, but I have 2 questions I didn't see answered on your blog. How well does the glitter hold after being washed? Is it ok in the dryer?

When I did the blog post, I hadn't washed it yet. However this really was made for my daughter and she promptly spilled hot fudge cake when she wore it! I turned it inside out and washed it on cold with my regular stuff. The stain did not come out. I used a bleach pen (the stain was on the white, undecorated part of the shirt) and it came right out. The glitter still looks PERFECT after being washed! I did not dry it in the dryer. I hung it to dry because the directions on the glitter say not to dry it in the dryer... and because when I took it out of the washer, the stain was still there and I didn't want to set it! Now, truth be told, I am not the most careful laundry maid and I am sure it will get accidentally dried in the dryer at some point! If I do and think of it, I will come back here and let you know what happened.  For now, I can say you can safely wash it inside out and hang it to dry!

I wash and dry mine with no issues. My DD shirt is treated about the same. My glitter was Plaid and the first wash looked liked someone put tinkerbell in the dryer. After that all was well.
