Hello all! I’ve been asked to take over the merchandise making for my son’s high school crew team. I’ve made many items on Custom Ink and I’ve ordered a few to see how they turn out, they arrive next week.
My question is- am I naive in thinking I might possibly be able to make t-shirts, hoodies, and other items at home? I have room for a 15x15 heat press or larger and have done some research into what is needed. I’ll have a team budget but would buy the machine and all things beyond the materials out of pocket. I have the time bc I work from home for myself so I have flexibility there. And I want to contribute to this team where I can, as it’s been a wonderful experience for our family.
My daughter will be rowing in a couple years as well, so home equipment would be used long term. But again, am I delusional that this is possible? I don’t assume it will be easy and that there is absolutely a learning curve, but I haven’t loved the options online via Custom Ink or others, and I’d love a little more creative room.
Tl/dr: Mom wants to make merch for son’s sports team. No experience whatsoever. Buy heat press, etc.? Or give up, mom.
