Do it yourself
Life hacks, master classes, useful tips, recipes.

We will need: LASER printer, paper, tape, scissors, water. Here's the theory in a picture:
It’s simple: print the design you like on the printer, glue it with tape, and wash off the paper with water. The drawing remains on the tape. Let it dry and that's it! The sticker is ready - you can stick it on.


Now let's put the theory into practice:













After gluing the adhesive tape to the drawing, the adhesive tape is pressed firmly with the palm of your hand to the paper, then under a stream of cold water with fingers without burrs (or a soft brush) wash off the paper from the adhesive tape by rubbing, after washing off (removing) the paper, only the drawing remains on the adhesive tape!!! Next, you should wait until the tape with the pattern dries from the water and becomes sticky, the sticker is ready! In this way you can make watch dials, stickers for equipment, nameplates and much more.

There are a couple of disadvantages:
1) After water procedures, the tape loses its adhesive properties (but not completely)
2) The inscription or any drawing is limited in size by the width of the tape
3) You need to wash the paper on the sticker well, otherwise if the sticker is not glued and not completely erased, the remains of the paper will be visible.

All ! It seems that everything should be clear.
