Leggings – A New Product

I’m sure I’ve said this multiple times on my blog, but I love looking for new products and trying my art out on new things. This past spring, with my sublimation printer, I was able to add several new products to my booth at the Farmer’s Market, as well as take several of those items to a brick and mortar for sale. Sublimation has been a fun process.

Then I started learning more about print-on-demand products. This as opened up even more doors to my artwork world and I added a number of other products to my booth, including sweatshirts, t-shirts, and mugs. Some of these items I could do at home, like the sweatshirts and t-shirts, but to sublimate, they have to be mostly polyester fabrics and a lot of the shirts and sweatshirts are mostly cotton, but the print on demand does all sorts of fabrics.

I could make the mugs myself, but it would require even more expensive equipment, besides just my sublimation printer. I feel like I’m running out of space and time, and having someone else print on the mugs, knowing that they’re dishwasher safe and high quality, that’s a win for me, and it’s been a win at the markets as well.

That brings me to the other night. I was watching a movie with my husband, but also I had missed the first 30 minutes, so wasn’t super invested. So I grabbed my laptop and started looking through other products that Printify offers. I originally started out looking for a full zip, light weight, fleece jacket. But I stumbled upon Yoga leggings and decided to just try a couple designs. I loved the results.

I created 4 different designs and uploaded them to my Etsy shop. I then ordered a pair of my favorites (that was a hard choice as I loved them all), just to see the finished product. I love how they turned out on the computer and I am excited to see the physical product, hopefully next week.

While looking at the different offerings, I did choose one of the more expensive products to put my art on. They just looked like a better quality, more durable fabric, and a little bit thicker fabric as well, which I appreciate. I’ve worn leggings in this particular style and loved them, so I hope I love these too.
