Plain Tees - Ideal For Screen Printing

The t-shirt was inexpensive and in style. It could even make a statement. In the 1960's decorating techniques such as screen printing and the tie-dye became popular. In the late sixties, realizing their was money to be made in printed t-shirts, the t-shirt industry started to sky-rocket. Rock Bands, Sports Teams, and Artists led the way for the t-shirt to be sealed into American culture and the officially licensed t-shirt was born.

Secondly, you can work in your branding or advertising message onto the shirts. You can design shirts in any possible configuration: printing on the front, back, sleeves and/or hemlines.

You are as good as your printer: The printer you chose is perhaps the most important decision to make. Make sure that you have a look at your printer's previous works, or have a word with some of his customers. Another method to do this is to ask the printer for swatches of his previous work.

However, the biggest negative is that there is no white ink in this printing method. So, if you were to print the Canadian flag on a light blue T-Shirt the flag would be red and light blue instead of red and white. However, there is a T-Shirt transfer paper designed especially for printing on dark T-Shirts that solves this problem.

I personally am addicted to wearing a black T shirt with blue jeans outdoors. This is often also my outfit for a casual afternoon date. It's classic, shows you're not trying hard to impress, and makes you feel like "you". At home, though, I usually like to hang out in a pair of comfortable shorts and a plain white cotton t shirt. That's what I'm wearing as I write this article.

The first thing you need to consider is what to wear your t shirt with. The most obvious option is to wear your t shirt with smart trousers that you would usually wear to the office. Tailored trousers in a dark colour such as black, navy or charcoal help to provide a sleek silhouette whilst focusing the eye on the t shirt. Lighter coloured trousers however such as cream or khaki are more casual in nature and should be avoided when teaming with a t shirt.

Perhaps you'll be making the most of a topical or satirical situation, and so will need to get your design finished within a relatively quick timescale, otherwise the moment will have passed. You might want to go for a more basic design that will be finished sooner, rather than a complicated design that will take weeks to perfect.

If you don't know how to print designs on a T-shirt or don't want to print the design yourself, then there are many custom T-shirt printing businesses which would assist you in designing your own custom T-shirt. You can search on the different businesses available in your area so as to get a brief idea about the time taken to get the T-shirt printed and the total cost incurred. Obviously you would go for the company that gives you the best deal. The price range may vary from company to company. It would also be beneficial if you try to know the feedbacks from previous customers of the specific company.
