How-To: Customize Shirts for Older Children


Laurie's picture

Laurie - Posted on 03 January 2009

Amanda sent in these photos of a t-shirt she customized for her 8-year old son. Amanda brings up a good point that since most of the shirts run just to size 4T and then adult sizes, that leaves a gap for those sizes in between! We think the look of the images sewn on looks so cool!

Amanda writes:

My son is 8, and he loves Biz's Beat, Brobee and more. Of course most merchandise is too small for him, but we love the superfunky Party in My Tummy tee from Minifine, but it only goes up to 4T. I decided to go for it and found a black tee from American Apparel, and (gulp) cut the groovy graphics off the 4T and sewed them on to the black tee (used some stitch-witchery to hold it in place). He loves it and so do I.

Here are pictures - he's doing a funky pirate pose!

Notable Quotes

"My kids [Stella, 22 months, and Liam, 3] are obsessed with Yo Gabba Gabba! It's a dream to guest on the show and do a dance-y dance!"

-Tori Spelling, actress

"I love YO GABBA GABBA. I don't care what you say, DJ Lance, Muno, Brobee, Foofa, Toodee and Plex have taught my daughter many valuable lessons--like the desirability of napping, for one. Not to throw objects at Daddy's skull. Not biting. The value of 'trying again' and 'not giving up.' All set to surprisingly weird, offbeat songs which--in another venue and with other lyrics, one might find oneself enjoying at a club. They get good indie bands as guests, and Mark Mothersbaugh of DEVO is a regular. I know every song and every lyric by heart."

-Anthony Bourdain, host of No Reservations
