Fast #lifehack - need to make a projector fast? I made and tested this puppy with great success. (Yes a dark area works best, or test it at night .)

1. Grab a shoe box or a sturdy cardboard box with a top or closing ability..

2. Grab a magnifying glass of some sort.. (got this one on amazon for 10 bucks)

3. Cut a hole in the box the size of the magnifying glasses diameter.. (I messed up the first one but got it on the second try)

4. Place the magnifying glass inside..

5. Grab your smartphone.. put on a video / piece of media.

6. Place it inside the box facing the magnifying glass, you will need to prop it up using some flexible wire or something small enough and heavy enough to hold it up. I found a rock 🪨 :)

7. Test it against a blank wall space.

And, life is forever changed!!

NEWYAWK T-SHIRTS ARE BACK!

Experience the epic saga behind the NEWYAWK t-shirts brand, a story etched in the heartbeats of New York City itself! Born amidst the legendary streets of the Big Apple, NEWYAWK is not just a brand; it’s a vibrant symphony of multi-sensory soulfulness that pulses through the veins of every true New Yorker.

Picture this: The bustling 1970s, 80s, and 90s, a time when the city was an evolving kaleidoscope of cultures and dialects. New Yorkers didn’t just speak; they orchestrated their own language! “Walk” metamorphosed into “WAAWK,” “talk” became “TAAWK,” “coffee” was no longer just coffee—it was “CAAWWFEE.” And “three” wasn’t just a number; it was “TREE.” These linguistic quirks are the very heartbeat of NYC’s vibrant culture.

As our founder journeyed through these bustling streets, he discovered the magic of graffiti and stencil art, a transformative love that birthed the unique tag: “newyawk.” This wasn’t just a tag; it was a revolution in lowercase, a cardboard stencil masterpiece that evolved into a hand-painted marvel for screen printing. And then, the pièce de résistance: a classic car image, symbolizing movement and the relentless drive of New Yorkers.

The journey of NEWYAWK is one of passion, creativity, and an undying love for the art of silk screen printing. This technique didn’t just create prints; it immortalized them, preserving the hand-painted charm that makes each t-shirt a timeless piece of wearable art.

Today, NEWYAWK isn’t just a brand—it’s a grassroots phenomenon. These t-shirts, born from a heart full of NYC pride, have taken the world by storm. They’re not just worn; they’re celebrated, cherished, and adored by those who wear their love for New York on their sleeves.

Join the movement. Embrace the story. Wear the legacy. Discover the NEWYAWK t-shirts brand and become a part of this incredible journey.

Explore our collection and feel the heartbeat of New York City at https://newyawkteeshirts.com/ – The brand name is NEWYAWK, and we promise you, this is more than just a t-shirt—it’s a piece of NYC history, ready to be worn by you.
