Graffiti Party
 
We're doing a graffiti party with a fraternity and I was wondering if anyone had an idea for the t-shirt design? I think we're just getting white tees with black writing so that people can write all over them in other colors, but what kind of design should we put on the shirt? Thanks.

:confused:

What ever it's goign to be it absolutely must be white so that everything shows up. When we had our mixer we didn't have a t-shirt made up for it...just went to Target and got some white fruit of the Loom shirts. just making everyone go for their own shirt is much cheaper than having shirts printed up.

IMHO, I would go against making shirts for the event b/c they aren't going to end up being something you'll ever want to wear again outside, so it seems VERY, VERY pointless to spend 10 or 12 bucks a shirt for something that is only going to be worn once due to the crude remarks. Far better to spend $5 and get three shirts of which 2 can be used like normal. So that's something to think about.
In all honesty I can't think of one good reason why you would need to print up shirts, but that's just me...

Either way the party will be a blast, so have fun...:D

Betarulz! makes a good point, but if you have to have a shirt, the only thing i can think of if maybe putting a picture of a brick wall with grafitti party written on it. If that makes any sense at all, but really i think betarulz! had the best idea.

While you do make a good point in most cases, my boyfriend's father owns a silk screening company and has offered to print the shirts for me at practically no cost at all, even cheaper then going to target, so I might as well take advantage of that. I like the brick idea and think I'll suggest that to my sisters. Thank you for your input!

We just got white Fruit of the Loom t-shirts from K-mart. I do like that brick wall idea. :D

Graffitt socials were probably my favorite ones!! The year I was a sr, we had one with LXA. We just wore plain white T shirts and brought tons of markers. I still have my shirt! I just hated when people wrote with permanent marker- it got through the shirt and on my skin. :(

for my birthday bash this yr, we threw a Graffiti party, and we had went to wal-Mart and just brought a bunch of the fruit of the loom shirts as well as the little boy shirts and they all worked perfectly. Thats usualy the best bet, most people don't wear the shirts after the party like someone else mentioned due to the lovely remarks. (although I still wear mine :D )
Blank shirts give you more room to work with and then you don't having people write all over them. Also to cut cost maybe ask people to bring their own tshirts or tanks to write on

I would just go with the cheap store brought shirts...you can get a pack of three for under $5.

Even if your dad owns a shop, as Beta said, you'll probably never wear them in public, so it'd be a waste.
