Hey Friends! Dave here with Transfer Express, and today I want to show you some do-it-yourself t-shirt packaging that can really boost your brand.

T-shirt packaging is not only eye-catching, but it helps up the value in your products, it builds brand loyalty and repeat purchases because it adds so much more to your t-shirts by giving your customers an experience. We’ve heard from so many apparel decorators selling at events, vendor shows and festivals and t-shirt packaging can help aid in sales by offering a unique product.

But regardless of if you’re selling at in-person events or selling online, we’ll be covering some easy and affordable t-shirt packaging options.

Ready to box this one up? Let’s get to it!

Rolled Cup W/ Sticker

  • Bundle (bonus branded cup!)
  • Can also be tumbler / pub glass / etc

Shipping Tubes Cut Down

  • Easy to organize and display
  • Stickers add sizing information & style easy
  • Themed & eye catching
  • Take those UltraColor® Max shipping tubes and recycle them!

Stickers can make packaging so easy, and you can actually order them right from the free, Easy View® online designer. That’s right, you can pull in all of the artwork you have saved, or design stickers using the thousands of customizable layouts and clipart to create durable, pre-cut, water and fade-resistant vinyl stickers & labels. Just navigate to the print method in the bottom left hand side in Easy View, click on full color, then All Purpose Sticker.

There’s just a $25 order minimum, so they’re some of the most affordable stickers available, too! Couple them with say, an order of Goof Proof® screen printed transfers and they’ll ship together for just one flat rate.
