Father’s Day–Great Tee Shirts for Dad on Tilteed

I mean, come on, really, what Dad wouldn't want some ice cream for Father's Day. Being summer time, ice cream is the perfect gift. And just to make it a little different, this is Ice Cream from SPAAAAACE!

This tee shirt design pictured above, Ice Cream from SPAAAAACE is only one of the many slightly out there (yep, pun intended), very cool tee shirts that you can find on Tilteed, an artist driven tee shirt website. If you are looking for a unique artist created tee shirt, then Tilteed is the site for you.

Here is what artist chrisrisse says about the tee shirt design:

Once upon a time I was curious as to why astronaut ice cream was invented. My main questions were “Who requested it?” and “Why is it ice cream when it’s not cold, or a cream?” A few minutes later, I gave up trying to answer those questions and drew a picture instead. It’s a blend of a space shuttle and astronaut ice cream, two items from our space program’s past that are still around.

There are loads of choices of both colors and styles, and the tees are made for both women and girls.

The concept for Harajuku Lovers revolves around the Shibuya, Tokyo area of Harajuku and the four "Harajuku Girls," Gwen Stefani's Japanese back-up dancers and entourage (Love, Angel, Music, and Baby). Gwen Stefani's original inspiration for a Japanese-inspired line came from her first trip to Tokyo in 1996, where she was amazed by the self-expression and individual style of Japanese youth.

Harajuku Lovers Tees by Gwen Stefani are meant to be washed. They are machine washable, making them appropriate for children and adults' regular wear. Gwen has created the clothing line as an extension of her music, especially her Love. Angel. Music. Baby. available in CD or MP3 from Amazon.  Pop singer Gwen Stefani formed the band No Doubt, and then went on to have her own successful solo career, including the No.1 single "Hollaback Girl".

Both the Harajuku Lovers Tees by Gwen Stefani and the Gwen Stefani L.A.M.B. designer line of clothing and accessories reflect Gwen Stefani's style in life and music. If you are a fan of Gwen Stefani, you will love these clothes and looks, and want to have them in your own closet.

Life is Good Positive Thinking Tee Shirts

Life is Good Positive Thinking Tee Shirts

Life is Good most of the time, and we often forget about how good life can be as we get bogged down in our day to day petty grievences. I chose to picture the Life is Good Stick Together tee shirt on this post because I think it is apropos for the Crabbysbeach community, however Life is Good has many tee shirt designs that are very cute, and make great gifts for Dads, grads, Mom, and yourself. A lot of the designs appeal to teenagers and younger children too.

Life is Good was born from the heads of Bert and John Jacobs in 1989.  Their simple designs and positive message has caused their tiny company to grow substantially since the inception of the "Jake" character that has become their logo.  Like many small businesses the Jacobs brothers started selling their tee shirts on the street, and they still maintain their simple roots and style.

Life is Good now supports a Life is Good Kids Foundation, an action-oriented nonprofit, committed to helping young children overcome life-threatening challenges such as extreme poverty, violence, illness and natural disasters. They support this foundation primarily through their Life is Good festivals each year, in addition to their regular tee shirt sales.

Life is Good is definitely a feel good company that promotes both healthy living, and mental health in the most basic simple ways.

Life is Good tee shirts are high quality tees, that come in several different cuts for men, women, and children. The tees are made of cotton, are super soft, and it is hard to just buy one, because they are just so wonderful to wear.

Broadcast your positive message in a Life is Good tee shirt. Buy one now.

The Evolution of a Popular T-Shirt Design

The Evolution of a Popular T-Shirt Design

It is always interesting to hear the story of how a t-shirt design gets made.  Just like many unique and innovative ideas, new t-shirt designs are often born out of desperation, and a need to pay the bills.  If I thought of how many different ways I have used to pay the bills, I can totally understand how designing t-shirts can be one of them. And that doesn't even count the illegal methods.

David Thorne became a t-shirt designer in the process of an email exchange with a chiropractor that he owed some money to in the form of an overdue bill.  David's original t-shirt, the 7 legged spider, became his first design, and since then, he has added more to his unique collection of oddly humorous tees.

You can find all of David Thorne's tees in his CafePress t-shirt shop.  The tees are very funny, I love this shark tee shirt pictured here.  Most of the tees are appropriate for kids and adults, or you can get David Thorne's designs on mugs and other items.

What is the old expression?  Necessity is the mother of invention?  Maybe it should be overdue bills are the mother of invention.
