Found out just today that we can participate in Band Shirt Day!

Signed up and am working on a good tee design to sell in support of Iowa Abortion Access Fund*.

Creatives, Bands, Photogs, Designers!

If you want to participate, have a design you’ve been sitting on that you think will look great on a tee, or want to whip up something new, we’d love to have your work in our fundraiser!

We have a Printful Print On Demand account linked to our main Domestica.shop website and can do all the uploading legwork. If we have time, we’ll also whip up some PlaceIt mock-ups.

For our own design, we’re thinking of the theme “[Music genre] is everything to me.” or something along those lines - an expression of what your fave music means in your life.

*Think we can actually donate to more than one group, so feel free to choose a different group, but this is the group we registered with.

TLDR: Band Shirt Day is Friday and we need time to post your design so hurry. Send us a link to a file. A file that’s similar to shape of a greeting card. Save files at high def. Send us your social for links. Also hurry.

The Skinny:

DEADLINE

Band Shirt Day Is This Friday, September 15th so as soon as you can before that.

CURATION

We do respect the right to curate the collection to best meet our sales goals, aesthetic and audience. Know this is super last-minute, so we’re not trying to be a-holes, we just want to say up front that some designs might not make it. Time’s also a factor - there’s a lot. to do when posting products, so we’ll work fast, but soon is best. These tee designs are meant to special for the event, but don’t have to have BSD in the design.

SALES

We pledged 25% of gross sales.

Profit on tees generally = $6 to $7.

Approx $1.70 to IAAF - let’s say $2.

We’ll split the remaining profit with the artist. It’s not a bundle, but it might be a coffee date’s worth. All the numbers above are subject to change depending on actual tee cost + shipping.

We pay via Venmo, Paypal, etc. Not Zelle, tho.

Printful prints and fulfills the orders as they arrive. They’re usually quick and also have a good rep.

Promote Band Shirt Day using #BandShirtDay2023 and assets from https://bandshirtday.com/graphics it really helps sales.

You have fans who love to give when they get.

FILES

Please send a Dropbox or Drive or whatever link to your high def (like 50Mb or so?) PNG file. Please follow the recommended dimensions above and make sure it’s 300 dpi. Be aware of white in your design and how it prints. Please include your name in your filename.

Please also send a Dropbox or Drive or…link to a doc with any pertinent info about you or your design. Socials most important. If you have tee color prefs, please note and we’ll try to match.

Did we forget anything? Any other ?’s, DM, text or email.

Thank you for even considering a submission!
