Print on Demand Fashion Design at Zazzle

For the last nine years, I have been designing fashion for him, her, and kids at Zazzle.com. I like that every product that I design is a work of art and is one of a kind. This means it is made by Zazzle, and you will never see it in the mall. 

If you are someone who likes unique fashion then know that you can buy the design as shown or you can choose to upload your own artwork, graphics, or photographs to create your own fashion look.

This fashion set features leather-look leggings and black zebra-printed accessories that I created at my Photo Gifts by Sgolis store.

Over the years I have bought many artwork t-shirts from Zazzle and find that the quality does differ from product style, there is finer cotton that feels like silk on your skin that is perfect for warm weather and there are other t-shirt styles that are made with heavier cotton which is best used for cooler weather. 

The sweatshirts and hoodies are super as they have a smooth outer layer with a fleece-like texture close to your skin.

I find that the artwork when applied to the quality cotton and blended polyester fabrics at Zazzle is reproduced beautifully. Zazzle does not mass produce their products, instead, they print the product only when it is bought. So when you buy any product on the website a skilled worker will create your product. They will ensure that your fashion product will have a high-resolution digital quality image that does not fade even after several cold water washes with air fluff drying and hung up on a hanger to dry all the way.

Know that I design fashion for men women and children at Zazzle and I am also a customer who shops at other designer stores. I like that the products I buy are works of art. If you have not shopped for print-on-demand fashion at Zazzle, then I would recommend that you check them out.

Zazzle Christmas Tree Skirts

Zazzle is a print-on-demand website that sells a variety of products; clothing, office supplies, home décor, and seasonal decorations such as Christmas tree skirts in brushed polyester, faux linen, and coral fleece. 

What I like about the tree skirts is that you can buy from a variety of designs that were created by artists or you can make your own by uploading a photograph or your own artwork.

The Christmas tree skirt is a good way to conceal the tree stand and dress up the look of your holiday tree. It is customary to set your wrapped presents under the tree, these gifts would be arranged on the Christmas skirt.

Here is a photograph of my tabletop tree. The skirt is white (like snow)

 The tree skirt compliments your Christmas Decorations.

When it comes to choosing a tree skirt I recommend that you choose one that will complement your Christmas theme and the colors of your ornaments. Red or green colors are popular, also gold and silver prints. There are many tree skirts to choose from I am sure there is one that is perfect for your holiday home décor.

If you are someone who likes to coordinate and do a color match then you may want to shop at the Zazzle Designers store which features a variety of products using the same pattern as the tree skirt. You may want to match the tree skirt up with

Many times the Zazzle designer features the same design used on the tree skirt an ornament, ribbon, and gift wrapping paper. How wonderful to be able to coordinate the tree skirt with the matching Christmas decorations.

When you shop for your Christmas decorations and tree skirts at Zazzle you will be supporting small businesses because the artist that created the product earns a royalty on their designs. You will also be shopping for unique products that cannot be bought anywhere else. So no worries about your friends having the same tree skirt or other Christmas decorations.

Here are a few Christmas tree skirts with matching accessories. If you like any of them and want to view them in high resolution please click on the highlighted words below the image and this will take you to the designer's online store.

Cat Pattern Ties for Men

When comes to dressing up for the office or special event men will put on a cat print tie because they do not mind showing off that real men love cats. My husband has a drawer full of cat pattern ties He likes to wear one I made from him from a photograph of our Siamese cat but for meetings or power lunches, he will put on his black and white leopard print tie or other animal print. I am not sure but I think he feels more confident, in his black suit with his big cat fashion tie.

Classic Styled neckties

Know that you can rarely find a cat pattern necktie at the mall, those stores have mostly generic-looking ties for men. If you want a tie that is interesting then you need to shop online at a print-on-demand store like Zazzle. The ties are created by some talented painters, photographers, and graphic design artists. There is no such thing as a boring fashion tie at Zazzle.

Here are a few of my favorite big and domestic cat fashion ties.  *Know that when you buy a tie from this page, you will be supporting a small business

Gone Fishing – Menswear

Many men prefer to dress in t-shirts and khakis or jeans, they will go to their closet and pull out a plain Hanes tee, and “getting dressed” is done. I am married to a man who dresses like this and prefers that he wear a pattern on his shirt. So I designed a line of shirts for men. Here is a menswear tee that I refer to as “gone fishing”

Gone Fishing by sgolis 

This men’s tee is a loose-fitting shirt that is perfect for men who are active. It is made from 100% cotton and is a heavier weight, not paper-thin but a good weight that appeals to men who prefer a shirt that is more durable. This shirt is perfect for working out in the yard or for wearing to go fishing.

Gone Fishing Men's Basic Tan T-Shirt

My husband likes this quality-made shirt with double-needle stitching on the sleeve, neck, and bottom. The shirt wears well and is one of my husband's favorites.

My husband weighs 152 and is 5’11. He wears a medium and the fit is loose and comfortable. 

We laundered this shirt in cold water, a permanent press cycle, and dried it on low heat. Took out of the dryer when the shirt was damp, shook it, and put it on a hanger. It did not shrink and looks as good as new.

Womens' Columbia Omni Shade Shirt Review

When putting outfits together for outdoor activities during the summer months I always shop for women's Omni-shade clothing by Columbia. I like quality made clothing that offers UPF 30 sun protection.  

The Columbia Omni-shade line of clothing does not wrinkle and I never feel overheated no matter what I am doing outdoors; gardening, hiking, or running errands.

Here is an outfit that I put together with a plaid pattern Omni-shade shirt by Columbia. Note the sleeves are rolled up and are kept in place with a button holder.

Columbia Silver Ridge Plaid Shirt by sgolis featuring denim low-top sneakers

Style and Size

The Omni-Shade Shirt by Columbia comes in a variety of colors and prints. When shopping online for this shirt I have bought the plaid and other printed shirts. I like prints because their color patterns are cute. I tend to shop for the colors blue and pink or the mint and pink prints and basic solid colors.

The cut is feminine and semi-fitted. Last year I bought 2 of these shirts in a size medium and they fit fine everywhere except my bust. The buttons pulled. I eliminated this fit concern by wearing a camisole under the shirt which enabled me to leave this button open.

This year I bought the shirt in a size large and the overall fit is not as fitted and the buttons in the bust area do not pull. My husband says the shirt looks fine, but a little boxy.  If your bra cup size is a C then size up.

Wear the shirt untucked because the cut of this shirt hits the high hip and if you tucked it in then it would come untucked quickly.

Caring for Shirt

Machine launder shirt in delicate clothing cycle, cold water, and use no chlorine bleach. I do not put it in the dryer, instead, I hang it and let it "air dry"

Indoor / Outdoor Area Rugs

Add ambiance to your outdoor living space with an area rug that is made to withstand the weather. Most outdoor rugs are made from nylon and polyester which makes the outdoor rug stronger and good for high-moisture areas including covered patio, porch, laundry room, and bathroom.

Recently I was shopping for a rug for one of my clients and found that there are a variety of patterns, sizes, and shapes to choose which will allow you to choose the indoor/outdoor rug that will appeal to your needs. 

Are you feeling inspired to decorate your outdoor space?  Here is a patio design set that will show you how to decorate a covered porch with patio furniture and an outdoor rug.   The rug brings the seating area together and this space is eye appealing.  Do you agree?

Outdoor Rug Benefits

When you accessorize your patio with an outdoor rug you will be able to cover up a section of your patio or deck that is worn paint peeling or cement cracks. Nobody will view the imperfections when the rug is concealing them.

Another benefit would be that an outdoor rug makes your patio and sitting area more cozy and welcoming.

Other

Even though the rugs are made to be mold resistant it is best that your outdoor living space has a covering because a rug left out on a patio without a covering will become worn out quickly. After a hard rain, the rug may develop mold or have a mildew smell.

Insulated Energy Efficient Drapes / Curtains

Keep your living areas warmer in winter and cooler in summer with insulated drapes and curtains. Microfiber backed window treatments have three functions, energy savings, they block UV rays and the curtains blackout the light so you can sleep during the day.

My husband and I work nights so when we are heading for bed the sunlight is bright in our bedroom. When the insulated drapes are closed the room is darkened and we can sleep, plus these drapes keep the room quieter because they block the outdoor noise.

If you are interested in insulated energy efficient drapes for your bedroom or other room in your home, then here are some fine online shops that offer a variety of patterns, colors at fair prices.

Pink Patterned Legging Outfit - Fashion Looks

Pink is the universal color that women are attracted to and this color is always in fashion for spring and summer fashion. There are a variety of pink colors from bright fuchsias to pastels making the color pink complimentary to many skin and hair colors.

My hair color is red and I have fair skin, the fuchsia color or the bright pink color is not good for me but pastel pinks are fabulous.  what I like about pink is that it looks good in a variety of colors.  Wear pink with gray, black, white, or blue jeans. 

Shop for prints or solids, the choice is yours. Here are a few of my favorite pink fashion looks for spring and summer. The t-shirt, pattern leggings, and coordinating pink accessories are the designs that I created at zazzle.com. You can buy as shown or customize to make your own by uploading your own pink photograph of watercolor, painting, or other.

You may like Capri-style leggings. This pink Capri legging is quality made, the fit is fabulous and they are perfect for summer fashion outfits.  

Cute pink floral Capri style legging for summer fun outfits

About this outfit:

The T-shirt is fine cotton with a 10 % polyester jersey that is soft and lightweight. A classic style for everyday wear to work or for casual outfits. The leggings are a stretchy eco polyester-spandex blend (88% polyester, 12% spandex) and are hand sewn. This legging was designed from a photograph of clouds then I added a filter edit.

Pastel Pink Butterfly T-Shirt for Ladies

The leggings are made from a heavier fabric that is breathable and stretches to fit your body perfectly. The legging hugs your body in all the right places, making you look thinner but does not constrict and does not feel uncomfortable. Normally leggings that fit like this will stretch out in the wash, not the case with this legging because they do not lose their shape after you wear or wash them. 

You will love the way this legging feels and will want them in every color.

Here is a pink legging outfit that I created.  It shows you how to put together a fashionable look using a variety of pink patterns.
