Make a Splash with Fun Family Reunion T Shirts - Family

Have you ever wandered around a picnic area at a family reunion only to realize that youre not exactly sure who you are related to? Never fear, the family reunion t shirts are here to save the day. Spot long lost relatives, or just lost relatives easily with the aid of matching t shirts. They can be funny by using a silly logo or they can be meaningful by adding a family crest. The sky is the limit when it comes to design.

So, how does one go about designing a family reunion t shirt? First, consider the budget. How many shirts will you need? Will you purchase them upfront or ask the family to go to a particular web site to order them directly. Will you get a volume discount? These are all important questions that will require answers prior to submitting a design.

The basic color of the t shirt is quite important. Although selecting a color like red or blue might seem like a good idea, some designs simply wont show up well on bolder or darker colored tees. Sometimes, for summer, white or gray is the best option. It is generally the least expensive to select white and the easiest to design for. Its also not hot to wear, so you wont get cursed by relatives later on and you wont have to worry about them showing up with voodoo dolls at the next reunion.

Dont get too busy with the design. It may be tempting to select many colors and font styles, but it ends up making your t shirts look, well, cheesy. The best way to start is by picking one font or theme to use. Sometimes, its good to research the internet for t shirts, logos or crests to use as inspiration. Clipart might also be purchased to add a little graphic style to the tee. Other options include photos from the previous year, or an outline of the state in which everyone lives or a map of where people are coming from.

Lastly, it is recommended for others to critique the design prior to mass printing. Check for the obvious typos first. Then ask people how they feel about the design. What do they like, and what dont they like. More than one person should approve it as many heads are better than one when it comes to great t shirt design.
