  1. hi the shirts would look great tyedied  in aweosme colors and you can cut them at them bottom and make fringe and add some colorfull beads! sell them at a craft bazaar ! Also go to ebay and search iron ons you can get some great vintage 80s iron on transfers( strawberry shortcake,sunkist,s****. doo and so many more!!) at great prices and make some really unique tees! good luck to you!!


  2. Put some funny sayings on there. Almost like Happy Bunny, something smart but not too racy and funny! Hope that helps!

  3. sponge  paint 0r sew sequiens

  4. you can get a picture of yourself or your friends, and posterize it, like making your face two dimentional and with two colors, kind of like andy warhol's monroe, since the shirts are white i reccomend doing this in black and white, you can easily make stensils, also you can make a repetitive pattern with a stensil, like, rows of shoes. but make sure the thickness of the paint varies so it will look worn, and then take the stensil and tilt it a little on the bottom right or left corner so the shoes are on top of the rows but going diagonally, make sure the paint is thicker at the bottom and they fade as they center the shirt, try spongepainting with a bunch of paints on a plate, not mixed, but swirled together.. also theres always tye dye which is super fun

  5. My fiance, brother, and I are planning on making some shirts.  We have tons of inside jokes...so we all chose little "phrases" that we thought were funny.  For example, my brother's is "I have your lighter".  (yeah he might get punched,  but he loves the mosh pit at concerts and stuff...lol  He's aware he may get punched.))

  6. You could buy transfers of anything really and just iron them on. If you want to do it completely by yourself, I would suggest buying some pens that are specifically for fabric since sharpies will bleed a lot. You could write some quotes from songs or some famous quote or just have all of your friends sign it or contribute a quote or anything on it.
