Tee Shirts. or “Tees”. We all wear them, if you say you don’t, you are a dirty liar! As Designers, a lot of us (often during a daydream) let our minds wander to what it would be like to “Design your own shirts” for fun, or even for some type of business plan. We’ve all been there, it seems easy, but it is actually a lot of hard work. If you can pull it off though, it seems to be totally fulfilling & worth it. <\/p>\n

I have even thought about it a few times – this tutorial showcase is actually a product of my curiosity. Over the years I have looked up how to make t-shirt designs and thought about how I was going to master the tee shirt business. Hopefully my time spent doing that, will save you some time on your own personal apparel company journey! Whether you want to have a huge business or just want to generate some passive income, its definitely something to look into! You could sign up for Big Cartel, Spreadshirt or any one of those companies and sell your warez online, or you could even go as far as to hire a local printer, or even an online printing company to manufacture your designs and get them printed onto your funny shirts<\/a> and other awesome apparel creations. Heck, you could even do it from home if you had good enough printing equipment and not a whole lot of inventory needs.<\/p>\n

Today we have rounded up some of the most Epic T-Shirt Design Tutorials we could find. We also put together some amazing resources that will help you along your quest to make awesome t-shirts.
