Tips for Top Quality T Shirt Printing

Tips for Top Quality T Shirt Printing

If you’re planning on designing custom t shirts for your staff or as an event giveaway you’ve probably already got a clear picture in your mind of the look you’re aiming to achieve. But now the question is how you can get it looking exactly how you envisage it. If you’re new to customising apparel then here are a few pointers for you to consider before you finalise your design and begin printing.

High quality design – Vector and high resolution raster images

The quality of the image you use for t shirt printing is critic to your final look. Using an image of low resolution, such as JPG and BMP file formats, and printing it much enlarged will make the resulting image pixilated. If you print the image bigger you just get bigger pixels. Therefore always use high resolution raster images for t shirt printing. The issue can be overcome by using vector images. Resolution will no longer be a concern because vector file formats like EPS pr SVG do not contain pixels. There are tools that help you convert raster files into vector format but remember they are only of limited use.

Use of colours

Often using only two colours you can create an impressive looking design. This is the easiest thing to do. You can use three or more colours but make sure it doesn’t confuse the image or text you’re displaying. If your design is based on a clever, bold idea it would look good even in black and white. Some colours are sought after in specific seasons or to associate a specific mood or feeling. If you intend to use quite a few different colours digital printing is the solution, while screen printing is ideal for printing using just a couple of colours.

Professional advice

If you’re making your own t shirt designs for the first time, be inspired by the work of professionals. But don’t commit your designs to print until you’ve consulted an honest and knowledgeable opinion.  Avoid wastage and boost your chance of producing top quality print images with the advice from the professionals who have the skills and expertise to address your needs.

 

T-shirts for Kids

T-shirts for Kids

 

Wouldn’t it be great if your kids could wear something fashionable but different to all the other kids, something fun and exciting for them to feel comfy and look cool in? T shirt printing is a great option if you dream of collecting new items with individual style for your toddlers’ wardrobe. And even for the smallest of cool kids, or the tallest in the class, t shirt printing technology is capable of decorating t shirts of any size, providing perfect fitting t shirts with original designs.

 

Digital t shirt printing is ideal for creating unique apparel for your kids. It uses a printer which soaks ink onto fabric to create an image. There are no limits to the designs or colours you can print on your kids t shirts so be imaginative. Obviously you will choose solid coloured t shirts but be adventurous and print images on t shirts that have stripes or dots to accentuate and complement your chosen print. A floral pattern or other loud prints for your background material might clash with your image, font or colours, but be experimental and find new combinations to wow and impress.

 

If you’re planning a promotional campaign for your business that provides goods and services specifically for kids, then you can target both the kids and their parents. A keen marketing trick by many businesses is free giveaways of branded stickers, t shirts and umbrellas in order to make their brand name popular. You can freely distribute t shirts that bear your brand name and logo on the front and back for both kids and parents in relevant sizes. Screen printing is a popular method of creating promotional t shirts to cater for bulk orders.

 

Ever wondered how screen t-shirt printing works? A stencil and ink are required. The stencil acts as a negative of the desired image and the ink is soaked into the areas that are not covered by the stencil. This way the image is achieved. Screen printing is the appropriate choice for producing hundreds of t shirts while digital printing or DTG (direct-to-garment) printing is perfect for a small number of t shirts.

 

Recycle Fashion: Create Tube Tops Using Old T Shirts

Recycle Fashion: Create Tube Tops Using Old T Shirts

With an idea in your mind you can expand your wardrobe without spending much! Let your creativity flow and design garments and accessories that can’t to be found in stores. Digital t shirt printing is a high tech process for printing artwork on materials. However, you can sew, make patterns with beads and dare to experiment with a handmade creation. This article explains how you can craft unique tube tops from your old t shirts. Follow the instructions to enhance your wardrobe with a beautiful new addition.

Instructions:

  • Turn your T shirt inside out.

  • Cut the sleeves off the tee shirt, including the stitching that holds the sleeves in place.

  • Cut off the top of the t shirt about an inch below the neck hole in a straight line. Be careful to cut in a straight and even line through both layers of the t shirt.

  • Pin the cut edges of the t shirt which held the sleeves. Sew the side edges. You now have the tube of your tube top.

  • Measure the diameter of your chest, just above your bust line, right where your armpits start.

  • Subtract ¼ inch from the measurement and cut a piece of elastic matching that length.

  • Fold the top inch, all the way around the top of the tube, and pin it in place.

  • Attach a safety pin to one end of the piece of elastic and move it through the folded area. When the elastic has covered the entire diameter sew the two ends of the elastic.

  • Turn the top right side out. Your tube top is ready to wear!


You can create an awesome looking tube top with a t shirt that you no longer like to wear. So not only will you save money but you’ll have a truly original item that you can wear with pride and be the envy of your fashion seeking friends.

Try t shirt printing your favorite quote on a solid colour t shirt and then make a tube top out of it. Draw an imaginary line along the two armpits and print your graphic on the t shirt below the line. You can print on both the front and back of the t shirt. If you want to print in bulk then you should use a screen printing method.
