They're HERE!

The shirts and sticker are ready (3 days early)!

I will say it now, I am *HAPPY* with the items.

*Drum Roll*

This is the sticker. Yes, it's a Rust-eze sticker *laughs*(CARS movie). We had looked online for them at one time, but had no luck in finding them. So---



I am *HAPPY* with the shirts, but...

When he originally sketched out the image, the idea, onto paper - it looked like it would be a smallish image (6"-8" round, center of chest). It was also suppose to be on a dark gray shirt...

Most of hubs shirts are black, so this isn't so much of a big deal.

The image being most of the front of the shirt - this is a learning experience for me. Next time (like I said I am *HAPPY* with them, but next time I will be more specific on all the details).



I am so happy with the results that I ordered 2 more vinyl stickers, for me (vinyl vs regular sticker are 2 completely different things, which I am learning).

***I could not wait for Christmas, I gave him the shirt a few days ago and he said 'I love it'. Last night I gave him the sticker, again 'I love it' (which isn't something he says lightly).***

Shirts and Stickers

I am working on, what I think, are some pretty awesome Christmas gifts for my husband. He will not see these coming!

Hubs has great ideas, but when we look for them online, we can't find it (which is good and also bad. Good because there will be few if any others out there and bad because they are not readily available).



There is a print shop here in town, Alston Ink (http://www.alstonink.com) - they do custom work (Sa-weet!). I went to them today with hubs ideas and they are bringing these ideas to life!

If this works out, I can see many trips to A.I. to get other things made.

Now, the title is Shirts and Stickers (most of yall wont think those as great ideas for Christmas), but hubs loves bumper stickers and he also loves unique shirts.

The shirts will be One of a Kind and the stickers...well, we looked online for _____ stickers and could not find any, anywhere! So, I told the shop my idea and they are making it!

I put my orders in today and they should be ready by the 21st. Awesome! I will post after Christmas with pictures. He's going to love it.

*if you are wondering, he doesn't blog nor does he read mine - so, it's ok. :)
