At the Olrando ISS show some companies were using really tiny shirts for doing samples. I was thinking I'd like to get some to do my testing on instead of wasting regular shirts if they are cheaper.
Were could I order them from and do they have a actual name (ie toddler or infantor sample shirt or whatever)
i know that several companies carry them.. Here is one example.. Dye Sublimation Products, Blank Imprintables and Accessories - Paramount Services
but they are actually more expensive or at least the same cost as buying regular tees.. which have much more room for testing etc..
what they are good for is to make little sample shirts.. to show the customers..
but for trying things out i would either go to the fabric store and buy the yardage or use cheap tees from the suppliers
ark the ones that are in the link above are for sublimation and will cost more. I bought some cotton minis at a printing palooza for $1.10 I think they were sold either by stahls or imprintables
Problem with fabric is that a lot of them have 'sizing' and that can alter the images
but even at 1.10.. if they are just for practice you would do better to use just a regular t-shirt.. heck you get alot more fabric for your money lol..
its not the fabric...use them as a 'calling card' most folks won't throw away and it is unique enough that they will remember you long after a card is tossed...but only give to those you really think you can win over
Infantblanks . com has some really cool litte mini baby tees.. they called them bottle tees.. .. I dont think they have them on their web site but if you contact them they will have them.
I buy t-shirts for teddy bears at Craft 2000 a craft supply store for about $2.00 each. A little pricey but very good quality. They come in colors. Since I only sell a few bears I build the cost into the price of the bear.
