Iron on transfers for shirt

[toothwasher4528]

My iron on transfers did not turn out! I have done two shirt and they both are in the trash! My first shirt the transfer looked blurry and the colors were not bright and the second about the same. You could tell the were by someone who didn't know what they were doing! I have a lexmark printer and I put it on best quality and iron trans fer print. Any suggestion? I leave for Disney the 26th of Nov.

I know that is most frustrating! My suggestion is to get them from Amy. She is on this board and I hear hers are terrific! I am geting ready to order them myself. I have used Avery, HP, Michael's and a couple off brands and they all came out ok until I washed them! I have read numerous threads about Amy and never once a bad report! Hope that helps and hang in there!

Amy's Transfers is the way to go. I have ordered 80 from her so far and other than my own mess up we are doing good. Her shipping is quick. Order a new batch on Monday night late and received them yesterday.

Her is her website address: www.amymickey.com

Unfortunately it could be your printer too. Lexmark printer are notorious for having poor quality when it comes to color graphics and pictures. Don't know why, maybe the type of ink they use? We used to have a Lexmark printer and it printed color horribly. We now have an HP printer and it works great. never had and issue with it.

I know everyone suggests to use Amy's and I went ahead and ordered some. We don't go till December. I wanted to put together a shirt for my niece and nephew who leave in a few days. Any recommendations for a store bought brand? I want them to look great on, but only need to hold up for maybe five or six washes and I'd be happy

Try Avery transfers. You can but them at any Wal-Mart in their stationary department. We used some of them on our last trip and I made some designs for my wifes Girl Scout troop. They turned out (to me) just as well as Amy's. (which we also used on our last trip)

I used up my Amy transfers before I was finished with my shirts. Made some smaller transfers for the pocket area front and the middle of the back neck area and used HP ones. They worked fine too! My printer is a Kodak printer.
