Custom Designs for Firefighter T Shirts
May/100
QLW-5 White Goof Proof® Plastisol Transfer
One of the most recognizable t shirts worn as a uniform is worn by a group that every city has. Fire Departments are a perfect place to offer your decorating services and gain recognition within the city. The t shirts they wear on a normal basis are quite similar from one department to another in terms of decoration however some departments look for something a little different.
The most common decoration for firefighter t shirts is the Maltese Cross located on the left chest or full size on the front. Transfer Express has a collection of popular parts of the Maltese Cross which can be used to arrange your fire departments logo. We can also print custom designs provided by your local fire department.
For the back, large bold text spells out the department’s name in common formats that can be found in the Text Only portion of the Idea Book™. Choose from simple text or add an outline or a shadow to make the text stand out. You can use the Easy View™ design program on our website to show the local department different designs if they want to step outside of the box.
With the firefighters wearing their shirts almost everyday they will often be coming back for more. Screen printed transfers are perfect for these last minute fill-in orders. You only have to print what you need and can store the transfers until the next time they stop in for a couple more.

Prom T-Shirts to Remember
May/100
April thru June is Prom season at practically every high school across the country. At the prom the total number of kids that attend can be in the hundreds. This is a great opportunity to increase production and gain profits. Most schools have a prom committee that meets about once a week to discuss detail of the prom from decorations to ticket sales to what DJ they will be hiring. This is a great place to start and show them the designs you can do and provide the committee with a quote. Some Proms also provide an After Prom at a specific location to keep the kids safe. The After Proms are usually themed such as Mardis Gras, Casino Night, and Tropical décor. So not only can you land a job for the actual Prom rececption and dance, but you can double your profits by offering shirts to the After Prom committee also!
The students want to remember their Prom night for years so a custom t shirt is a common party gift they can take home. The Idea Book™ is filled with design ideas for their t shirts. Transfer Express has added a Dance Section with several layouts that can be customized with the schools name and theme of the prom. If you don’t find something here, don’t forget to check out the rest of the Idea Book™ sections. Even the Work and Sports sections contain layouts that can be changed to fit your school’s Prom theme.
Here are some creative examples to get you started.
