Valentine’s Day Gifts Made Easy!

I am google chatting with my friend Courtney who is now living in China, she is asking me if I know some place to get custom t-shirts - luckily I happen to work for a great place to get custom t-shirts and I send her to Spreadshirt. She loves the idea and realizes that Spreadshirt is the perfect way for her to send amazing Valentine’s Day gifts to all of her friends in the US.
I send her to the Valentine’s Day order deadlines and the Valentine’s Day promo page so she can save 14%. She now loves Spreadshirt.
Then she asks for gift ideas. We got those too. Check out our ideas for Valentine’s Day gifts page.

I am loving this t-shirt today…

What are you ordering for your valentine?

There is a heart for a hole

You can own part of an eco-friendly t-shirt company

UPDATE: This post has generated a bit of conversation here at Spreadshirt - we all think it is an interesting idea but we are a little concerned about this project because we don’t know much about who is organizing it or how it is being organized. I just wanted to follow up and make sure it is clear that we aren’t endorsing this project. I think it will be an interesting project to follow and I am interested to hear what other people think of this idea of crowd-sourcing a t-shirt company.

This is a really interesting idea. nvohk is a t-shirt company where the decisions will be made by all of the people that are members - membership costs $50 a year. Members receive %35 of the profits to buy merchandise with and a discount on products. 10% of the profits will go to eco-charities.
Here is a little graphic of how it works (click on the image to see a larger version on the nvohk site)

New for Toddlers

We have added some new products just for toddler to the ever growing product assortment.

The toddler t-shirts are sized smaller for the little kids, the exisiting children’s t-shirt is better for bigger kids and adults that like small t-shirts. (sometime I order a kids large if I want a very fitted t-shirt).

1. Toddler Ruffle Tee: white, lilac, mint green and pink

2. Toddler Basic Tee: white, black and red

T-shirt the Vote

Super Tuesday is just 2 weeks away. It is presidential campaign season and that means it is political t-shirt season. We want to show off the best and funniest political t-shirts. Campaign t-shirts can be big sellers - support your favorite candidate or make fun of your least favorite candidate. Add you political designs to the Spreadshirt marketplace and please add the tag Vote2008 so I can find them and blog about them.

I am loving this Llama for Obama design - I think it looks hot on the light blue shirt. One of my favorite t-shirts from the 2004 election was on this blue color.
