Title: Starting young.. Post by: dnb on December 23, 2009, 05:31:41 PM My daught is due to give birth to my first Grandchild any time from now and I have had a couple of tops made up ready for him.
They didn't come out as well as I'd hoped but still npt bad. The guy did the writing in white on one, bit harder to read. Daughter is married to a Cook Islander and they nicknamed him Coco till he is born, so I had the number plate on the old girl changed to Coco...

That second T-shirt is a gem; we'd love one just like that for our grandkid - how did you go about it? cheers, jack ps my son is currently riding an old pushy; his 'F word' died recently; all the more reason to get his first-born a shirt like that ;D ;D ;D Title: Re: Starting young.. Post by: dnb on December 23, 2009, 08:51:02 PM I got the shirts from Cotton on kids at Dandenong Plazza, two for $15.00
Than I took the shirts and a selection of photos of my car to the printer I use, gave him the wording and he did them while I waited. He charged $20.00 for the two so all up $35.00 for two personalised tops, not a bad deal in my book... The guy I go to is on the corner of Burwood Road and Warrigal Roads in Burwood, right next door to the Ford dealer. Cheers, Darcy Title: Re: Starting young..

Title: Re: Starting young.. Post by: hrpremier on January 07, 2010, 10:01:04 AM I made up a jumper and t shirt for my 16 month old when I went to the HD/HR Nationals in Mudgee in 2008. Simple iron on transfer on the front and the back. Just basic photoshop skills added a personalised touch. All in all cost me under $15.00 for the two tops including the paper to transfer onto.

Post by: dnb on January 08, 2010, 08:47:49 AM Jase, they look great. I've tried to do some myself but with little success, had trouble getting the size right for the smaller tops. It took forever to learn to post photo using Photo Bucket so my computer skills are sadly lacking..
I've downloaded a programme called Photoscape that looks more user friendly for an older fart like me.... ;D Title: Re: Starting young.. Post by: hrpremier on January 08, 2010, 11:42:22 AM Maybe FE-Ambo can sheed some light as to why the young fella has a busted up nose in the last photo.
