Default Looking for Transfer paper to draw on directly.

Is there a transfer paper out there that can be drawn on directly and then transferred to t-shirts? Something we can get wholesale without paying premium dollars from specialty sites.

Ive seen a few online, but the users are fiercely protective.

Inkjet heat transfer paper can be drawn on directly. Just make sure the ink is not made of dye or watercolor. Use pigment or permanent ink.

Thanks Luis. I did some experimenting this afternoon. I had some samples from a new company. I dont remember the name of the company....it's at the shop. I drew on one with sharpies, pens and pencils. I was really impressed with how well it transferred to the t-shirt.

Tomorrow I'll wash it and see what happens.

Now you need to do wash test to find out how durable is the image. I am not sure about pencils and pens. Sharpies might be okay. There are paint pens. Maybe you can try those.
