    Pictures are a great way to capture the fun and fast pace of teenage life. Here, Lamancusa demonstrates how photo transfers can create special keepsakes with a few simple steps.

    Materials:

    Color-copied photo
    Fabric
    Picture ThisB. by Plaid Enterprises
    Sponge
    Water

    • Take one of your favorite pictures and have a color copy reproduced.

    • Cut out the copy of the photo.

    • Brush Picture This solvent on the picture until the entire surface has been covered (figure A).

    • Lay the photo with the solvent face down on the fabric (figure B) and let it dry for 24 hours.

    • To remove the paper, dampen it lightly with a sponge and then rub the paper until it's fully removed (figure C). The image should now be transferred to the fabric.
