So, I was looking through the orders today for Christian groups, hoping to get some ideas for new design templates.  I came across several shirts that would benefit from a few quick changes to make the design look more unique.  Often people used a line of text and a clipart, but would benefit from a quick lesson in thoughtful placement.

When you think of the word “soft,” what comes to mind? Freshly dried towels, a fluffy puppy, extra-quilted toilet paper. Did you answer t-shirt? Well if you didn’t, I can give you a few reasons to add this category to your list: The American Apparel Tri-Blend T, the Anvil Sustainable T, and the now discontinued Canvas Distressed Vintage [...]

I’m jealous of kids nowadays growing up with pictures of their childhood and families taken by digital cameras with great definition. The pictures  my parents took when I was an adorable kid (sigh, those were the days) were fuzzy at best, and you have to look past the blurriness to really enjoy the photo.

Breanna was first inspired [...]

A few weeks ago, I mentioned how much money you can save when ordering different items with the same design, if you place the order all at once. Since we can use the same stencil on different shirts, we can group the order and pass the savings to you. Now let’s talk about how you can get even more flexibility in your order based on your [...]

Veterans Day on November 11th is the official day to honor our military veterans, and our customers have taken the opportunity to do so with custom military t-shirts – like Mrs. Pearson’s 3rd grade music class in Oklahoma. Since 2005, her students have presented a program for Veterans Day, complete with “costumes” made especially by and [...]
