That made it a little awkward for quite some time so I still have all my supplies but haven't done any since. You've inspired me all over again!

Anyhow have an experiment and see how you go, that is what l do and as l am only self-taught l may be wrong by saying that the white doesn't work on tiles, l just used what works for me

My next question is why must the paper be black? The reason I ask is that I bought but haven't used a few boxes of another kind. It is at work and I am at home but I think it is either clear or white. I can try it to see what happens unless you know it will be a disaster.

At 8:02am on March 12, 2008, auer said…: could you give me basic instructions? do I need to buy a special photo transfer paper? and do I use tiles that have been fired such as those at a commercial tile store?
I'd like to do this with a third grade group of students.
