How many of you out there have seen pop art tops such as this one and/or graphic saying tops such as this one and said to yourself, "I want it so badly I could just die. However if I spend that kind of money, my husband will kill me." OK, well I don't about you but that was my thought. So to find a happy medium, DIY!
I purchased 2 plain basic sweatshirts and iron-on printer transfer sheets for dirt cheap at Walmart.1. Find a picture of a logo you like, a graphic print, or even a picture of your dog Scruffy. Whatever floats your creative boat. Once you've found the perfect design, print on regular paper to test first as to not waste your iron-on transfer sheets. Once all is good, mirror image your design and print.2. Cut out your design to avoid having a paper like rectangle print on your top.3. Position your design face down on your garment and iron on.4. Voila! So simple, so quick, and the best part...so CHEAP! I can't wait to wear my trendy inexpensive tops and post some outfit pics.

Fabulous idea!!
I love them both!! I managed to track down a cheaper alternative to the Markus Lupfer KA-POW jumper here in the UK. I am definatly going to try the tres cool one, I prefer your version to the asos one!!
Thanks for the great tip!!
@Sheree: It should work with any picture. I got my pop art print on Google image and I made the "tres chic" print on Adobe Illustrator.
Have fun with your DIY!
