Converse grow on trees

Converse trainers, an essential shoe for many a designer, now grow on trees in Bristol.

Teepay staff pick

Some of you may have been following the progress of Howies new venture Teepay. I have as yet failed to get a t-shirt printed, I got close with 20 orders but not close enough. Plans are afoot however to creating a 'buy now' shop where people can buy t-shirts straight away and not waiting, and to this end Howies are picking one t-shirt everyday where you can buy one straight away. Yesterday's choice was asteroids by my good friend Aron, so get on over and pur-chase!

Only a day left to buy my t-shirt!

Only a day left to buy my 'turn the tap off' t-shirt. I need 10 more orders for it to go to print! Come on people! Buy here...

Turn the Tap off!

Sales are going well for my t-shirt on Teepay.com. I need another 11 sales for it to go to print, spread the word if you know anyone who is passionate about saving water, energy and the environment. Click here to buy and view the t-shirt!

Teepay - Turn the tap off

I've designed another t-shirt which you can buy on Teepay right now!!! Available in white and heather.

My first Teepay attempt

Teepay went live on Friday, for those who don't know, it's been launched by Howies and it gives anybody the chance to design a t-shirt. Each design is given a period in which to get at least 50 orders, and is then printed with the designer receiving a royalty. So here's my first attempt...'Don't Be Square'. You can buy my t-shirt here for £20 and is available in white and black.

Howies to launch Teepay

Howies is to launch TeePay.com on the May 1st. Here's how it works...

- you design what you’d like to print on a tee shirt

- you upload your design/s to the teepay site

- you market it however you want to whoever you want

- they promote Teepay and all the tee shirts online

- if you sell 50 shirts or more, they print them and pay you a royalty for every shirt sold 

They also want to know your five favourite charities, so royalty payments can be donated. Sounds like a great concept, you can read more here on the Howies website, get those ideas going!

 

Get excited and make things

Aron from howies dropped me a line about their new t-shirt of the week, and thought it followed nicely with all the posts we've had about Steve Price's latest work. Have a good weekend everyone!

That kern is tight!

Seen this t-shirt on a few blogs now but still thought it was worth a mention, pretty nice, you can see more on the Workermen website. Via clusta
