How to Design Your Own Youth Group Shirts Online

Pick a T-shirt style. Consider the season and whether you want long-sleeved, short-sleeved or sleeveless T-shirts. If the T-shirt is just for girls in the youth group, you may consider selecting a women's cut shirt that will fit closer. If your youth group is mostly younger students, you may want to select youth sizes instead of adult sizes.

Add artwork to the T-shirt. On many sites, you can select either artwork that is already in the company's system or upload your own artwork. If you decide to upload your own art, draw or use a computer graphics program to design the artwork. Scan in hand-drawn artwork with a computer scanner and save the file as an image file. If you use a computer program, design the art and then save it as an image file. Load the image on the website.
