How can you print on hats at home?

A printed and customized hat is a very innovative style statement. Some text with a logo or image printed on hats will look gorgeous well as it will match with your personality, as you have customized or designed the hat as per your preference. Customized hats or caps will be an innovative idea because you can find a vast number of custom T-shirts print showrooms in California as the Americans are customizing their T-shirts for the last 50 years. But a customized hat is not too common. 

• Design and print your hat following these three steps:

 Designing and printing on hats are almost like printing on T-shirts. The easiest way to print a design on the fabric is screen-printing. T-shirts screen printing on hats is also very easy and it can be done at home. So you may consider this a DIY craft idea and should try it at least once because the feeling of wearing your style and design is very satisfactory. You may buy a cap from online stores, but that will not provide you the same satisfaction. In the following section, I’ll mention the easiest way of screen printing a design on hats at home.

1. Select an image or text to print:

It’s the first step as well as surely an idea can force us to do something innovative. So a unique image printed on a hat would be a great start. If you are printing on fabric for the first time then you should choose a simple design, because you need to cut it out and fix it on the screen for screen printing. Also, you can apply a single color on a single screen, so for a newbie, it is advised to select a single colored image. A complex design will make it complicated because using multiple screens on a hat would be tough for those who aren’t experienced enough. 

2. Prepare the screen:

You can purchase the screen from the online stores or can prepare it at home. The screen should be small for a hat, but need to be hard enough to hold. So select a harder frame and then cut out the design on the screen. Once the screen is prepared, place it on the hat. Check thoroughly if there is any leakage because a small leakage may spoil the design and your efforts will go in vain. In California, men’s and girl's caps we can see are very impressive, because people around here love to wear a cap. So make the design accurate to make the desired impression.

3. Place the screen and run color on it:

Once you have placed the screen in the perfect place on the hat, then the last step is to run color through it. You need to spread the color perfectly so no place left untouched. Also, for this leakage is needed to check, because a tiny leak the color can spill on the hat and make the whole effort wasted. As we have mentioned earlier, try to pick a single color if you are a newbie, because you can apply a single color on every screen. For printing multiple colors you need to prepare multiple screens and need to place and color them one by one.

Finally, dry the hat under the sunlight:

Once every corner along with the borders is colored properly, then you remove the screen from the hat and let it dry under the sunlight. Once it is dried iron on the other side of the printed portion very delicately. After ironing after left to do, now your customized hat is ready, so wear it wherever you like. As we have mentioned, you may search deeply for unique hats or caps for men or girls, but your idea satisfies much. So, try your favorite logo or shape on your favorite hat, and that will make the hat even more adorable than earlier.
