Why Summer Is Perfect

The Summer Advantage Every Teacher Has

You already have the one thing most aspiring entrepreneurs don't — uninterrupted time to learn and build. Here's why summer is the smartest time to start.

01

Time to Learn at Your Own Pace

Summer gives you the breathing room to learn the pressing process, set up your store, and make your first few shirts without the pressure of lesson plans and school days.

02

Earn Before Fall Even Arrives

Many teachers make their first sale within their first week. By the time school starts back up, you could already have a side income stream that doesn't stop when summer does.

03

Use Skills You Already Have

Teachers are natural communicators, marketers, and community connectors. That's exactly what it takes to sell locally — to parents, churches, dance studios, and small businesses.

How It Works

From Order to Finished Shirt in 4 Simple Steps

Seriously, this is it. No printer. No weeding. No complicated software. Just press and peel.

Common Questions

Everything You're Wondering About

Absolutely. We do all the printing for you. You receive a ready-made printed film transfer — just position it on your shirt, press with a home iron (or Cricut Easy Press, or heat press), peel, and you're done. No printer, no weeding, no mess required on your end.
You don't need to be. Our ready-to-press collection has hundreds of designs already created and ready to order. Browse, pick what you love, and sell them. When you're ready to move into custom designs for clients, we'll personally walk you through the process — no design experience needed.
DTF (Direct to Film) transfers are printed on professional equipment using specialty inks and adhesive powder, then heat-cured. The result is a vibrant, soft, durable graphic that works on any fabric color and lasts 100+ washes. They look and feel completely different from the stiff, cracking iron-ons you remember from childhood.
No minimums — ever. You can order a single transfer to test it out. This means zero wasted inventory and zero risk as you're getting started. Order what you need, when you need it.
A gang sheet is one large transfer sheet that has multiple designs or sizes packed onto it — maximizing every inch and lowering your cost per design. It's perfect when you're ready to offer custom designs to businesses or sell multiple designs at once. We have a builder for it, and we'll walk you through how to use it when you're ready to level up.
We pride ourselves on fast turnaround. Orders ship from Spring Hill, Florida, and free shipping is available on orders $75 and over. Check our website for current production times — we keep things moving so you're not waiting long to get started.
