Teacher Appreciation Week!
We all love our teachers, right? Well, it’s Teacher Appreciation Week, so now is the official time to thank your favorite teachers! Sure you can give Ms. Hall (that was my first-grade teacher) an apple, but what if you were able to express your gratitude in an even more creative way! With a custom t-shirt, of course! I mean, think [...]
Haikus for Happy Springs
With the month of April came the start to Spring with all its rainy but thankfully warmer weather. We had a lot of rain here so I put off this April blog post until now. In case you didn’t know, April was National Poetry Month! So in celebration of some poetic verse, I thought I’d share with you 10 Springtime Haikus to help [...]
Feliz Cinco de Mayo!

But seeing as I’m not what you would call petite, I find myself wishing that Bella would make shirts that are a tad bit bigger so I’m not always having to size up. Well I must have a fairy godmother because [...]
Using Patterns in Your T-shirt Design
So now that spring is in the air, even if it doesn’t feel like spring outside (it’s currently gray skies in the DC area and my teammates are complaining about the lack of sunshine), it’s time to start adding fun, colorful, flair to your wardrobe and to your custom tees. I look to Jayme’s monitor, and then to Erin’s (our art specialists), [...]
