Mer Definition Totes, Tees, and Tanks!

[PearlieMae]

Hello, lovely Mers!

Strangely enough, with all the new shirt designs being posted, I, too, have just burned the design below and will be silkscreening shirts and canvas totes!

I'll be posting them in my Etsy shop, PearlieMae's Beautiful Nonsense! Please let me know if you might be interested and I'll give you a discount code!

[Miyu]

THAT IS AWESOME :thumbs up:

[PearlieMae]

Glad you like it!

What would you be likely to pick? (that is, when you aren't as broke as me!), tee, tank or tote?

Or something else?

[Miyu]

Hmm... well, here's my issue...

I love tanks. I like to feel "au natural" as much as possible.

However, I love tees for when the whether gets chilly (babydoll tees for me), and large-size regular tees to deconstruct for club and stuff.

Totes - I like reusable shopping bags! I also like messenger bags!


Sooo... I'm no help at all, really LOL!


I also have a love affair with hoodies. Ones with decent sized hoods. I prefer zip-ups because I have horrible circulation, and I'm eternally either too hot or too cold... zip-up hoodies allow me to regulate body temp better.

[PearlieMae]

The more ideas, the better!

[Miyu]

Haha no prob! I have a lot of friends who have their own online shops with clothing and such, so I've seen what works and what doesn't. I'm always happy to provide more ideas if you'd like :D

[Marlin]

@PearlieMae- Awesome idea. :) Are these already available?

[PearlieMae]

@PearlieMae- Awesome idea. :) Are these already available?

Thanks! It's an idea I've been thinking of for a while. I have to print some shirts for The Beau's band, so I burned this screen, too. I am about to go get some tee shirts and tote bags and will be printing the first run this afternoon!

Let me know a size and color preference, and I'll print one off! If you like it, I'll reserve it, if not, I can just list it in my shop.

[PearlieMae]

So...I have a few designs. I would love some opinions... :D

14844 14845 14846 14847 14848 14849 14850

[Yulia]

I liked the "Why yes, I am a mermaid" best.

[Echinacea]

YES, PLEASE!! ONE OF EACH?! :thumbs-up:

Actually, I would like the picture ones - not to the point of advertising as a 'professional' yet. Nice colors, too. What are they made of? (ie do I need to worry about 100% cotton shrinking in the dryer so it doesn't fit...?)

Do the 'Professional Mer___' have the lettering on the front and back? Also, would you do any lighter colored ones, with black lettering?

I saw Miyu had mentioned hoodies... what about something like a merman sort of vertically swimming up one side, and a mermaid on the other, looking towards each other with the zipper in between?

[PearlieMae]

I could do all cotton, poly/cotton blend, etc. Whatever you like!

Actually, I would be making them to order, so you can have anything you like. In fact, if you already have something that you wanted to send for me to print, I can do that, too.

I use the best Speedball brand inks. I have black, white, red, blue, yellow, and can mix any custom color...I also have gold and silver, as well.

I like the mermaid/merman hoodie idea! Off to find some royalty free artwork!

[PearlieMae]

Buying a mermaid shirt/tote/etc...is a hard call, sometimes. So I had an idea... If you have something already, tee-shirt, jacket, tank top, tote... you can send it and I will imprint it! I will do a custom listing on Etsy, you send it, I print it and send it back!

Does that sound like a plan?

I currently have the following imprints ready to go:

15213152141521515216

Why yes, as a matter of fact, text only: 3.5” w x 1.25” h
crest sized - suitable for above a pocket, centered small on the front or back of a shirt, or on a sleeve


Mer definition: crest sized 2.75” x 1.25


Life’s abyss: 4.24 x 1.25, a little wider than crest sized, centered on a shirt looks great, as it’s not overwhelming


Why yes with dark haired mermaid: 5.5” w x 7.75” h


Professional Mermaid or Professional Merman: 
Two sizes 3.5” x 1 or 5.5” x 1.625”


Professional Mertender:
3.75” x 1 or 6.5” x 1.625”


Life’s abyss with mers: 6” w x 7” h


Mermaid: 3” w
Merman: 2.75” w
Mertender: 3.5” w


Mermaids be tough: 6.5” w x 7” h

[MerAnthony]

I don't have an ESTY account.

[Blaze]

I need that 'Life's abyss' one! :D

What colors do you print in? I usually prefer black ts but not sure what inks you can use

[PearlieMae]

You don't need an Etsy account! If you'd like something printed, let me know and I will set up a custom order and send you the link!

Blaze (I LOVE that!), I can print any color you like! I use first quality Speedball inks and heat set them. I have black, white, silver, gold, all the primaries, and I can custom mix any color!

Also, I will be listing printed items on my Etsy account with no need to send anything but payment!

[AniaR]

will you be selling these at NCfest? I'd love to buy some!

[MerAnthony]

What are your prices then Pearl? I am interested.

[PearlieMae]

I didn't see there were more replies!

Raina, I would love to come to NC Merfest! Don't know if I could swing it, though.

Pricing would run $10 plus shipping per imprint on your garment (which you will have to mail to me);

One sided printed tee, 100% cotton, made in USA $17.99 plus shipping (around $2.50)

[Joy&RaptorsUnrestrained!]

I have to say, the Mer: If you have to ask, you'll never know shirt just comes across as a bit arrogant and not very helpful. I do like a number of the others, though.

[PearlieMae]

Thanks for your input. I appreciate it! :D

Arrogant? Maybe a bit. Helpful? I'm not trying to be helpful.

[MerAnthony]

This is just a general question but do you have more in they way for Mermen? I don't see a wide selection for us.

[Merman Dan]

This is just a general question but do you have more in they way for Mermen? I don't see a wide selection for us.

What he said. :)

[PearlieMae]

Well, now that I know, I will get to work on that right away! Open to suggestions, too! :D

[PearlieMae]

Picture this: upright merman, trident in hand, tail coiled gracefully, and in biker-jacket styled lettering in arcs above and below, "Swim Hard, Swim Deep"

[Merman Dan]

there's a mer-bump joke there somewhere, but I'm not going to be the first. ;)

[PearlieMae]

I thought it was better than "How do you like my codpiece?" ;)

[Merman Dan]

I thought it was better than "How do you like my codpiece?" ;)

SOLD! ;)

Granted, I do have this rather rude photo of me modeling a lobster puppet... but never mind!

[MerAnthony]

I like the Idea about with the trident in hand an all that but I think the biker jacket has to go.
Picture this: upright merman, trident in hand, tail coiled gracefully, and in biker-jacket styled lettering in arcs above and below, "Swim Hard, Swim Deep"

[PearlieMae]

I thought that lettering has a nice, non-girly look, but I've a million other fonts. Perhaps something more 'pirate'-ish looking?

[MerAnthony]

I was thinking on something like I have for my picture here that you see below on what I wrote here.
