Designing Graffiti Tee Shirts Easily

By Karina Santana


Clothes are one of the best ways for a person to show their own style. What is even better is a person designing their own clothing. Making graffiti tee shirts is one of the easiest and cheapest ways for a person to design their own clothing and express their style.

There are all different styles of graffiti writing to use to put on the shirts. Some different styles used for graffiti include tag style, throw-up, blockbuster, and wild style, just to name a few.

One of the more complicated forms to use is wild style. It is very blended and colorful, as well as difficult to read. Blockbuster letters are easier, they are evenly spaced out and, just as the name implies, they are in block form. Another easy one, throw-up, the artist constructs one layer of paint in one color, and the second layer in a different color. Tag style is the easiest style of graffiti to write.

Tools are an essential key in getting a project done. Stencils are very easy to find, for those who may have issues drawing. Stencils are pieces of cardboard, plastic or paper with designs or letters cut out of them that are placed on top of something, like a shirt, and the person just colors in the holes cut from the paper.

When putting prints or designs on clothing, fabric paint is normally used. Also, pens, markers, spray paint and regular paint are ideal tools for designing tee shirts. For some people, what kind of colors and paints that are used determine how well the design stays on the clothing.

When getting prepared to put the print on the shirt, be sure to have s flat palate, such as a large piece of wood or table top. Mark the center of the palate to center the shirt. Also, using tacks or strong tape would be ideal to secure the shirt to the palate.

Any clean, white shirt is ideal for painting on. If someone would rather use a worn shirt, make sure it is as clean as possible and completely dry before starting. After painting the shirt, place it in the sun or an open, dry area for the paint to dry. Placing the shirt in the dryer after it has been in the sun for a while is a good idea to make sure the paint is dry. When finished, brand new and fun graffiti tee shirts are ready to be worn.
