"Hi, I'm Chris, owner of Salon Teez. For Expert Village this is "How To Create Your Own Iron-On T-shirt." We've created some great looking T-shirts using a cold peel, transfer using rhinestones, using a hot split type of transfer. These T-shirts and these transfers are great and they will last a long time. But to insure that they last a long time, make sure that when we go to wash them that we're washing on more of a delicate cycle; we're turning the shirts inside out and placing in the wash on cold water. Try not to use bleach, if possible, and then once the wash is complete just lay the shirt out flat to dry or if you prefer, keeping the shirt inside out, put into the dryer on a low heat setting and once the dryer cycle is complete, then promptly pull out the T-shirt and place it on a hanger so that it can completely dry. By doing this, it keeps our T-shirts wearable and our transfers looking great for a long time to come."
