In this project sponsored by an IMAGINE grant from HP Inc. You will be able to sketch out your own t-shirt design, scan it or take a picture of it and send it to us to have printed!

Fill out this form and we will print and send your shirt to you (or you can pick it up)! https://forms.gle/WV8BfQr9kDezW84x5

Tips on getting really good results:

  1. Use darker colors so they will be vivid when printed
  2. Keep your design simple and try to fill up an entire sheet of paper (see below for example kids have done).
  3. You can sketch on plain white paper and the take a picture with your phone or you can drop it off at 130 SW 3rd St Corvallis, OR 97333 – just slip it the mail slot near the door with a note on it with your name
  4. You could also use a service like canva.com and send us your .png https://www.instructables.com/How-To-Export-Canva-To-PNG/
  5. Have fun!
