Make Your Own T-Shirt

The sophomore girls at my school are all really close so we decided at bible study one day that we wanted to make some "Sophomore Girl" t-shirts. I decided to make some and I wanted to show you guys how you can make your own t-shirts as well. It was a super easy process and only took a few hours to make the design.

The first thing you want to decide is where you want to design your shirts from. There are a lot of online places that you can order costume t-shirts. I would suggest "Custom Ink" they are really helpful and super easy. You can create any design you want and it's completely customisable, they also have tons of different kinds of shirts.

                         

So, I just wanted to show you our little journey for how we got the final design for our shirts. This is what our original inspiration for the shirts. We wanted a soft colored shirts, and we also knew that we wanted it to be long sleeved. We didn't know if we wanted a pocket or just something where the pocket would go, but the pocket shirts didn't have the colors we wanted.

                                     

This is what we started with. I would make a design and then take a picture of it and send it to a group message and ask them what they thought. We knew we wanted a verse on the back and we wanted the year we graduate and "Lady Knights" somewhere on the shirt. 

                    

Then someone drew out a picture of a shirt we could do. It turned out really good, and I wish that I could draw like this! But then some people didn't like the bow, and they wanted the verse written out. It was back to the drawing board for me.

                                      

Then I did a new thing on the front. I did a little circle with a cross, "Lady Knights", and the year we will graduate. Also on the back, I came up with this design with a circle. As you can probably see from the picture it was starting to come together.

                     

Then the girl sent this picture to the group, and we really liked this design. It had the verse around the circle, the reference in the middle with a little banner and the year we graduate in the middle in big letters. It looks a lot like the design I made on the computer as well.

                    

So then someone sent this picture of a monogram to the group. So then it hit us that we had to have a monogram of our school on the front! That's when the shirt really came together and we started getting the final design. We had to go all the way prep with these haha.



And so this was the final design! We loved this baby blue color with some pops of pink. We love the verse we chose, Proverbs 31:30. And we have the year we graduate and Lady knights on it. We got these shirts approved so that at school we could wear them on spirit wear day. Spirit wear means that we can wear jeans and a Trinity t-shirt.



Here is a picture of some of the sophomore girls that wore the shirts to school. Some of the girls couldn't make the picture, weren't there at school that day or hadn't picked up their shirts yet. I love that we have these shirts and I feel like it kind of bonded us as a class. If you want to make a shirt that I would highly recommend using Custom Ink and Group me for a group chat and ask everyone what they think. 

                       






I hope this post was helpful and you enjoyed it. In a few hours I'm going to post about how I wear my shirt and some more pictures of it. Till then have a great day!
