This is part two to my previous post about personalized gifts for my daughters high school dance team. You can read the background and the first team gift in this posting.
My second Hype gift I was in charge of was just three weeks after my first gift, so I didn't have time to stop and smell any roses. I was gathering supplies for both gifts at the same time. The second gift was customized dance t-shirts for all the girls. I had my daughter and two of her friends at the computer with me while I was designing this shirt. It is different than a water bottle, this was something I was hoping they would wear in public, so it had to be done right.

I found a wonderful company at ooshirts that helped me plan out the whole design. I entered the sizes of the shirts that I needed, the color of the shirt (white was less, might do colors next year) and one screen ink color. Again, I was trying to keep within my budget and wanted to see how inexpensively I could pull this off. Ooshirts called me when they said my image was to pixelated and that I needed a new image. The guy helped me by emailing me some ideas of what he thought would be similar. After re-working my design we had one that was going to work. It was a simple design, but with it being only one color print, I thought it would look better that way. The shirts ended up only costing $3.55 each, again with free shipping and no set up costs.

The shirts were delivered in under two weeks which I thought was real fast and gave me enough time to finish assembling the entire gift.

What type of gifts have you done (or received) with your sports team? If you clicked here from Pinterest, I know you have tons if ideas...all the crafty people do.
