Valentine’s Day T-Shirt Design Templates
It’s February, and you know what that means… Presidents Day Shirts! You mean you don’t want a Grover Cleveland Rocks shirt? Alright, alright… I just wanted to write about shirts for a holiday that people can enjoy without dates. But for those of you with that special someone, here are a few t-shirt designs you can order for yourself or [...]
Snow Inker!
I don’t know if you heard, but we had a bit of a snowstorm on Wednesday… It went from freezing rain to blizzard in 60 seconds. And most of us were commuting home. Ack! But, when life gives you snow… a few of our Sales reps make an Inker snowman. Check out the newest member of the Inker family! Even snowmen look good in [...]
CustomInk Holiday Party & Inkademy Awards
What comes before Part B? CustomInk’s Holiday Part-AY!! (The joke never gets old. No, seriously, it doesn’t.) Every year, CustomInk hosts a shindig for the team around the holidays. It’s one of the only times we get to see our fellow Inkers dressed up. (Seriously, some of us are barely recognizable.) It’s super fun. There’s free food, [...]
Artist Spotlight: Elizabeth C.

A day to celebrate the penguin for always being the best dressed or for being flightless but still cool. It just so happens that we have some stellar penguin images in our artwork library. And, some of our [...]
Polyester: A Much Improved Blast from the Past
Ever wish you knew more about the fabrics used to make our products? Thought you did, so I’ve dedicated this blog post to schooling you on polyester – a “go-to” fabric in many of our athletic and t-shirt styles. It’s come a long way since the very “colorful” clothes of the 70s (that was the nicest way I could say it). And with the [...]
Image Selection: What’s the .Gif-ference?
I am firmly putting on my Sales/Service Representative hat to work through a series of questions I get asked about using your own artwork in a design. What files work best? How do I upload my files? How do I make sure it prints the way I want it to? A few weeks ago, I wrote about cool things that you can do with a photo, but before we [...]
National Hat Day
Did you know that tomorrow, January 15th is National Hat Day?! In celebration of this much loved and sometimes overlooked American staple, I thought it would be nice to give hats their time to shine…err shade…well, you get it. These are just a few of my favorites…
