How do I make a T-shirt?
-
Ask children to have their parents find a plain white t-shirt or other cotton item that they can use for the iron-on.
-
Pick up iron-on ink-jet transfer paper at your local craft or office supply store. Choose opaque transfer paper for dark-colored items and transparent transfer paper for light-colored items. Transparent transfer paper may help avoid white outlines around artwork. Always read the instructions that come with the transfer paper.

Download the free artwork.
-
Use an inkjet printer to print the downloaded artwork onto the transfer paper. The artwork comes as a two-page PDF document. Page one is a flipped, mirror image (backwards) of the design. Page two is a regular (straightforward) non-flipped image.
-
Use an ordinary iron to transfer the design onto the item. Use caution, the iron will be very hot.
