We received the following question from Miki on our last post How to Make Charms, Jewelry, and Decorations with Your Pet’s Photos From Pet Society:

Thanks! I’m helping with ideas at my school’s new store. Have any more ideas like T-shirts designs or crafts? ^~^

There is a very easy way to make T-shirts or other fabric crafts such as handkerchiefs, scarves, etc. featuring your pet or a photo of your house, garden, etc. from Pet Society using Iron-on Trasnfer Sheets.

We have used these in the past with great success. The sheets usually come in 8.5″ x 11″ like regular printer paper. You just format your image on a Word or Photoshop document and print it out on an inkjet printer. You then transfer it to a T-shirt by ironing.

There are different types of transfer sheets depending on the color of fabric: light, color and/or dark. Be sure to select the right type for your project and read all the instructions.

A note about resolution: because Pet Society photos are rather small, your images may appear blurry if you blow them up too big. You may try “print screen” instead of taking a photo to get a larger image of your pet for your T-Shirt project.
