Leslie Neblett demonstrates how to personalize your pillowcases.

Personalize Bed Linens

• Transfer paper is available at your local craft store or larger office supply stores for about $2 per sheet.

• You can transfer just about any image. You can download something from the internet or even use photographs.

• Print the image directly onto the transfer paper, either directly from your computer or load the transfer paper into a copy machine. Load the copy machine with one sheet of transfer paper at a time.

• Iron your pillowcases before you start. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for a proper transfer. Basically, the image is transferred through dry heat.

• You may want to take a little more care in laundering the bed linens, and don't bleach them because you most likely would bleach out the image itself.
