Are there companies that will buy your witty slogans outright?

Question

I'm a copywriter and I'm always coming up with witty stuff that I think would make great t-shirts, bumper stickers, buttons, etc.

Wondering whether there are companies that will pay you for these ideas.

Answer 1

Spreadshirt.com actually allows you to design your own t-shirt with your own text and logo and sell it. I haven't tried it yet, but it looks promising.

Answer 2

I've wondered the same thing, and in all my years in the advertising industry (18) I've never come across one.  :)

What I have thought of, though, is to find a local screen printer that will print small quantities for you, then put them on ebay, set up a page on myspace, etc. and see how they sell.
