Edwardsville, IL Custom T Shirts Process

Whatever your background is, we don't judge. We are just happy that you have found your way to the custom t shirt printing world. And if you have ever wondered exactly how custom t shirts are made and the process that occurs, you're in the right place. Let us take you on that journey.
- Design: The Edwardsville, IL custom t shirt process begins when you place your order. You will have to decide what kind of custom design or wording you would like on your shirts. If you need inspiration or help executing your vision, no sweat. Our team of professional in-house designers will help create a design that will look great as a screen printed design on your Edwardsville, IL custom t shirts.
- Screen: Now that you have provided or approved the design that will be on your custom tees, our professional screen printing staff will create what is essentially a stencil of your design on a mesh screen.
- Color: To be able to print the design on your custom t shirts, we must then perfectly match the colors from the design to the right screen printing inks that last for many washes and are flexible with the fabric while maintaining crisp lines and brilliant color.
- Press: Now it's time for the action. The next step in producing your Edwardsville, IL custom t shirts is to print the ink on the shirts. Enter the screen printing press. We will place each t shirt in your order on a plate on a machine—either a manual or automatic press—where the ink is applied and pressed onto the shirt using a squeegee.
- Dry: After going through the press, the ink, in the shape of your design, rests on the shirt. But to finalize the design and make sure the ink stays, the custom t shirt has to be cured. The introduction of careful heat to the printed shirt turns the ink into a solid. The design is there to stay.
- Ship: Now, your custom t shirts have been printed and are ready for your enjoyment. Our staff will package your order and send it to your doorstep. Happy wearing!
