    Nobody brings it up, but heat transfers are a cheap way to make your own designs. Just takes an iron and the transfers come with the extra sheet you need. They’re like $5-20 depending on size and can go on pretty much anything cotton or cotton/poly blends.

      I didn’t even know they still made them. Used to see the packs of the transfer sheets everywhere but either haven’t seen them or haven’t noticed them. I also don’t have an inkjet printer to use with them, but if I was going to do a batch of shirts, it’d probably pay off to buy a “disposable” one and use the ink that comes with it.

      The only thing with those, though, was that I always forget to turn the shirts inside out before washing them so the print never lasted very long.

        I’m referring to ordering them online. They’re way more professional and last through the wash decently well.
