Coffee inspired t-shirt from STAY VOCAL

Written by Greg Dawson on April 1st, 2010

Last holiday season, I covered a t-shirt that featured a coffee stain design on it. If you didn’t get one then, you’re in luck, but not for long. STAY VOCAL, a ReUse Apparel company is offering their Coffee Stains logo until April 4.

As mentioned, these garments either come from thrift stores and are washed and treated or they are rescued from being destroyed by merchandise companies. Like repainting your house, they have given these shirts another life.

Got a tee shirt idea? Submit for cash!

Written by Greg Dawson on March 5th, 2010

The best thing about learning how to screen print is making your own tees… well, I’m running out of ideas and I need YOU to submit ideas.

Here’s how it works:

1. You come up with a design or saying

2. Submit via my contact page

3. I’ll review it, make sure it’s appropriate and post it in the gallery

4. It will most likely sell for around $10 to $15

5. Every time it sells, you get $3 sent to you via PayPal

You do not have to do anything but submit a design… I will post it, make it and sell it.

All you have to do is sit back and collect the moola… pending it’s a good enough design to sell!

Here are a few of the latest designs…

You can be a highly paid executive or just an average Joe (like me). Either way, it doesn’t matter.

No experience necessary!

My buddy and I are amped up for the Chicago Bears this season and came up with the “Butler to Cutler” t-shirt idea and I designed it and will do the screen printing on a 100% ringspun cotton, 4.5oz Hanes T-shirt… feels practically weightless or at least that’s what the ad says! :)

Check out the t-shirt here.

Screen Printing Tutorial

Written by Greg Dawson on September 8th, 2009

Here’s a cool how-to screen printing tutorial from Jane in South East Scotland who blogs over at Max and Molly Designs. She recently taught herself to screen print & is selling her greyhound-inspired creations on Etsy, in her shop The Dog House, as well as at local craft fairs & events.

Screen Printing Tutorial by Jane:

“This is the second in a series of three screen printing tutorials, in which I will describe the process I use to create the hand printed items for sale in my Etsyshop, The Dog House. Over the course of the tutorials I will show you how to use a photograph to create a screen printed product, using the example below…”

What you will need

  • a computer print out of the monochrome image which you wish to screen print
  • an embroidery hoop large enough to accommodate your monochrome image
  • fabric (non-water-soluble) glue
  • a pair of tights (nylons) – the tighter the weave, the more detailed the resulting print will be
  • a coloured pencil (in a colour that will show up on the tights you are using)
  • a cheap/old paint brush

Read her entire screen printing tutorial here.
