Do you need a quick refresher on how to make and use a freezer paper stencil? 👈 Review it now.


If you want to make this shirt using HTV instead of a stencil, the SVG is in the Free Files Folder.


Step-by-step instructions

  • Wash and dry your shirt first, without using fabric softener or dryer sheets.
  • Print out the “Hops Grain Water Yeast” image you’ve downloaded from the Free Files Folder onto your freezer paper.
  • Cut out the areas you want to paint. Remember to save any little bits you need to iron back into the design, such as the glint in the water drop, and the bubbles and empty space in the top of the beaker.
