Hi! My local DTF transfer printer…I designed them myself in Canva though; I used a 3”x2” canvas and the print itself ends up being about 2.75x 1.75 when it’s applied. Whenever I order a gang sheet I just add the tag design along with the other larger transfer designs so I never run out!
Hi 👋🏾 They are dtf transfers. I designed them myself in Canva. Started with a 3x2” template. The final design ends up around 2.5x1.5”. Then whenever I order a gang sheet for my large transfers I add some of the neck tag designs to that same sheet. That way I never run out! My tags have evolved from full sizing detail to just the company name & website. Now I attach hang tags with all the sizing and garment care instructions as I’m expanding my size range & the blanks I work with.
I appreciate this video. I was getting overwhelmed with figuring out how to fit all the supplies needed in my budget to buy a printer, the maintenance, shirts, heat press, shipping materials and software. Buying transfers is better for me. I just don’t know what sizes are what for a chest logo in the center, left chest neck and back like I mentioned in comment before. Right I use custom size 5000 x 5000 px to create my images, what do you use?
For left chest though I do try not to exceed 5 inches wide. Center chest up to 12 inches wide. Back up to 13 wide. But again…really depends on my vibe & the design! And your customer. Streetwear designs all tend to be oversized. Text designs range from minimal to larger & bold…keep all that in mind.
This is awesome. Can you share what the sizes are from your images? Like the neck label, front and back image? For t shirt sizes small, do you use the same size image?
My final neck label print is around 2.5 x 1 inches. The shirt design sizes vary. I don’t have a hard & fast template or set of measurements because I “vibe design” 😂 so depends on my mood TBH. But I do NOT adjust the size of my transfers for different sizes of shirts. It’s totally unnecessary to do that within the same size run (ie. Adult sizes.). Of course if I made youth clothing or kids it would vary. Best rule of thumb is to know the chest/ back width of the shirts you generally print on. So Gilden, Bella Canvas, whatever brand. (They’re all pretty universal). Then create your design to look good on a Small & the measurements will be fine on all sizes from there. Even an extra small should accommodate a design spec’d for a small properly. Hope that helps!
That’s very specific 😆 no I haven’t done memorial shirts but if you’re wondering if they will handle graphics. Yes I have done that. As long as your image is high quality, it will come out the same.
Are they expensive the transfer’s? For the amount that you paid? I’m a newbie. So interested in doing this. I have the Manuel heat press. Thanks also for sharing
The price will definitely depend... The brand you go with, the type of transfer you get (by size vs. by gang sheet). I recommend coming up with 3-5 designs, get those printed on a gang sheet, and start there. The beauty of gang sheets is whatever fits on the size sheet you choose gets printed. So you can experiment with different designs, colors, sizes etc. without being limited to the by size print option; which usually comes with minimum quantities. I've been able to experiment more going the gang sheet route. I'll see some designs in person and want to adjust the size or colors, but at least this way I wasn't stuck with 9 other transfers (usually the minimum you have to order when you print transfers by size is 10) that I didn't want to use. Hope this helps!
So Satisfying!!! You're a Ninja Transfers Pro 🤩 🙌
Thank you! I’m enjoying the results & can’t wait to get my hands on the glitter transfers 🥰💜
Girl you're killing me with those pre-k safety scissors, lol. A pair of garment scissors will change your world.
😂 Those are actually a pair of shears! Trust me, they are sharper than they look on screen.

Hi! Can you tell me how and where did you get your neck tags please?

Awesome! Where are you getting your hang tags from?

@@byPeaceJewel thank you for this information. This is gold right here especially starting out.
Have you done any memorial shirts using these transfers?
