How often do you hear a phrase and think, “That should be on a T-shirt”? In fact, no matter how complex life can seem, most things can be boiled down to a humorous, attention-getting tee. Fortunately, you can create statement-making tees to your heart’s content at Spreadshirt. The site offers three services: You can design your own apparel, open a free online shop to sell your custom clothing designs (and collect a commission), and purchase designs that others have created in the Spreadshirt marketplace. The company uses a superior printing process called plot printing, which produces long-lasting results and colors that don’t fade, with a choice of two finishes: flat (slightly shiny, like vinyl) or flock (soft and slightly raised). First choose from a variety of products, like American Apparel tees and tanks, organic and bamboo shirts, track jackets, thermal shirts, maternity tops, organic cotton totes, messenger bags, hats and even undies. Once you pick your merch, you choose a design. Designs are organized by category and offered by navigation down the side of the site, but they’re also searchable by tags.

These “Tonight I am Single” and “Foxy Lady” tees were a big hit at Store Adore co-Founders Meredith Barrnett’s Miami bachelorette…
