    Hello Im Johnny Cash
    Iron ons and tshirts
    Just wanted to know if there's any way I can make my own iron ons & custom tees (not on the internet), because I'm sick of buying clothes that say nothing about me. ;) My only ideas so far are to use Sharpies... :confused:

    Thanks

    Many oofice supply stores such as Staples have kits that let you print to a special fabric that can be ironed on to a t-shirt. Here's an example:

    PLEASE Don't go with iron-on transfers! You will be disappointed! If it's one-of-a-kind custom T-shirts you want, search on the web for Snowgoose Custom Selections. They are a digital T-shirt printer. Essentially ANYTHING you want to put onto a shirt they can print--full color hi-res photos, artwork, text, you name it. They even drop the price when you order more than one even if they are totally DIFFERENT. And here's the BIG PLUS: digital printing puts the designs directly onto a 100% cotton shirt with textile inks and the prints not only DON'T CRACK, PEEL or WASH OUT but they feel just as soft as the cotton fabric. The inks are just like the ink used to make a colored shirt or put stripes or calico designs onto fabric. They sell really nice shirts, too. Not lightweight flimsy ones. Tall sizes, too, in case you need those. It'd be the perfect match for you--create your own ideas and e-mail it to them to print.

    I looked up this company on the internet and googled the address given it is a vacant lot. Also the phone # has been disconnected.

    You can always used craft paint just for fabric. Or some brands have fabric medium that you can add to the paint.nI doesn't wash out. It doesn't wash out of there fabric. Check out the site for DecoArt paints.
