Pienso que la impresión de estilo desgastado no se puede considerar una moda. Cuando algo se mantiene el tiempo suficiente se convierte en un standard. Al pensar en esto traté de recordar la primera vez que ví algo impreso en ese estilo. Recuerdo que Gap y Old Navy lo hacían a mediados y finales de…
When our buddy Mark Bailey of Sanmar first mentioned that they would be releasing a new performance fabric known as Posicharge which would eliminate the need for low-bleed inks, I was dubious. A couple of weeks ago we had a chance to work with this product in production. IT WORKS! Sanmar produced a nice little video…
I think that “distressed” printing can no longer be considered a fad. When something sticks long enough it becomes a standard. Upon thinking about this I tried to remember the first time I came across a distressed print. I remember Gap and Old Navy doing a lot in the mid to late ’90’s, but I’m…
Twelve years ago in March I was labeled a “Maverick” by Counselor Magazine. Interestingly, my partner in crime here at the Ink Kitchen Tom Davenport was named as one of the 25 Hottest Movers and Shakers in the industry in April of this year by that same Counselor magazine. Here’s the Counselor piece about Tom http://www.asipublications.com/counselor/Awards/content.aspx?id=1218…
https://www.facebook.com/bostonwestandtogethershirt We are selling shirts and with the generosity of Jakprints, Indiemerch.com, Hanes and Mirror Image employees, we can give 100% of the price (not of the profit, of the entire purchase price) to two charities that work with folks that need prosthetic limbs. At the site you can buy the shirts for find links…
This progressive print is one of our “Award-Winning” prints, named first in an April contest. Motion Textile and Mirror Image combined skills to create this Uber print, a real metaphysical marvel, a post-modern achievement. The radius of the Circular Pattern was particularly of note to the judges, as was the prodigious Quality and Quantity of…
We have tried many tests on garments in the life of our company, but I think today we tried the craziest test on a garment we have ever tried. A customer wants to know, does corn starch stick to 100% polyester shirts? The answer is yes. Somebody that works for us just came in the…
Me encanta cuando se nos presenta un proyecto divertido y desafiante.Nunca antes habíamos impreso sobre colchonetas de yoga pero uno de nuestros clientes favoritos nos lo solicitó así que a ello nos pusimos. Para que lo sepáis, esta es la primera impresión que hacemos a mano en casi diez años. ¡Namaste!
Counselor Magazine, an ASI publication, publishes an annual list of the “25 Hottest Movers And Shakers In The Industry”. Somehow I ended up as unlucky number 13! They included a few words about The Ink Kitchen. Thanks Counselor! Read Counselor’s Hot 25 here
I love it when a fun and challenging project comes our way. We had never printed yoga mats before but when one of our favorite customers came through with the request I jumped on it. FYI, this is the first hand-print that we have done in nearly ten years. Namaste!
