Give your tote bag even more personality with witty phrase or image that is sure to give other parents a well-earned laugh. You can also check out our gallery of fabric transfer templates in Design & Print Online to personalise and add in your own clever quips.

Make your own personalised makeup bags like this cute “Selfie Kit” idea. Although the bag is a lighter colour, we used a dark fabric transfer here since it helped the white parts of the design stand out. Dark fabric transfers use a white transfer sheet as opposed to light transfers which are transparent. Make sure to cut around your dark fabric transfer prints if you don’t want the white background to show through.

Have you seen our "Hello my name is" name badges before? Why not use this classic design with fabric transfers to set up the perfect baby announcement. You can select from a variety of fonts to make the names stand out.

Are you a new mother? First of all, congratulations! Second of all, your newborn is going to start growing very quickly. Now you’ll be able to commemorate each month with these custom baby onesies. Many crafters use labels for their baby’s monthly photos, but fabric transfers add an extra level of quality that won’t peel off.

Fabric transfers are great for making custom made shirts for events or as party favours. Create these hen party shirts for an unforgettable memento. But remember to keep in mind that light fabric transfer designs need to be mirrored before printing. This is because the design is printed onto a clear film that is ironed onto your fabric. However, if you’re using Design & Print, we’ll keep track of whether you’re using a light fabric transfer template and flip your print for you.

Add a jolt of positivity to your physical activity with your own funny workout shirts. Ironing your own custom gear is an excellent way to get motivated and remind yourself to stay focused. If you want to make sure that your shirts come out just right, we have a step-by-step video on how to use our fabric transfers. 

Have a picture-perfect family holiday by making your own family t-shirts. Coordinated shirts are a fun way to get your friends and family into a celebratory mood while also making it easier to keep track of everyone in large crowds. Can be useful for school trips, sports events, team building and so much more!
