Eric's site will give you a general idea of concept Linty Fresh — Home

You first want to decide on the size of your labels. Knowing the size of the transfers you want made will also help you decide this.

For example, on their 12X12 sheets (roughly 11X11 print area) you could gang 50 2X1 inch sized labels. Some of the 50 would say small, some medium, etc.

If say 1/2 of the shirts you normally sell are size large, then half of your labels on that sheet should say large.

You would normally gang your labels in a grid pattern, leaving enough room between them so you can easily cut them apart with scissors.

I have a question:

Can you "pre" label T-Shirts with the plastisol transfer, and then screen prit them, or do you have to print them 1st , then transfer?

Thank You.

Yes, you can transfer first, then silkscreen with no problem.

But if you screen print first, then use transfers for the labels, make sure you cover your screen print with a teflon sheet or paper to prevent re-melted ink from damaging your shirt or press.

That looks nice! Good work!!

Is this made with transfers you printed out yourself with a basic printer?

Do you know any good transfers and were to buy?

The are not inkjet transfers. They are screen printed onto transfer paper and then heat pressed when needed onto the shirt. We printed these, which we can do for you. But, there are also many other companies providing custom plastisol transfers (search the forum).
