Animal Pictures / Pet Photo Designed Shirts

 

Show off your love for your fur baby by wearing a shirt with a photo of your dog or cat or another animal on it. Shop for template t-shirts, hoodies, or sweatshirts at Zazzle and find the style that you like. Then follow the steps for customizing to upload your photograph or to edit the text.

A darling shirt for a cat lover

Shop for a variety of shirt designs as there are many styles to choose from. The short sleeve cat t-shirt (shown) is basic cotton with a relaxed fit. 
This shirt features a cutout photo of an orange tabby cat and an overlay of tulip flowers and a butterfly. Wear this shirt for the spring season and on holidays such as "Mother's Day" Buy as shown or remove the design to upload an image of your fur-baby. 

Here is a black sweatshirt that I created from a photo of my Pitbull dog. The sweatshirt is exactly what I need during the winter and I really like that, I could customize it with a photo of my dog.

 Know that if you love this sweatshirt with my dog's photo that you can buy it as shown.

As far as fabric and care the sweatshirt as it's made with 10 ounces of a cotton-poly blend. The inside is textured like fleece and I think it makes the shirt feel cozy and warm. The sleeves are set in with a double-needle stitched neckline and the bottom band really helps to keep you warm.


This is a template sweatshirt you can buy as shown or design your own animal or pet photo shirt.

Here are a few of my new pet photo-designed shirts for him, her, and the kids 

Dog and Cat Dad Funny Father's Day T-Shirt




Easter Golden Retriever and Rabbit Spring Holiday Sweatshirt


Cute Dog Cat / Animals in Hats Girls White T-Shirt


Golden Retriever Dog Mom White T-Shirt

The t-shirt is 100% cotton which is perfect for warm spring and summer weather. (note some shirts are a cotton blend) read the Zazzle.com product description to know the fabric and care.

I recommend washing the t-shirt and the sweatshirt in the permanent press cycle, cold water, and tumble dry on low heat.

Know that I bought my first Zazzle shirt five years ago and I am still wearing them seasonally.

Love Faux Wrapped Canvas Prints at Zazzle

 If you like the way a wrapped canvas print looks but not the cost then you will love a faux-wrapped canvas print at Zazzle.com

The faux-wrapped canvas prints are a cost-effective alternative to a traditional wrapped canvas that will cost you $100.00 plus and a faux Canvas 10X10 size is under $25.00. 

So if you are seeking a canvas print for a cherished memory like your wedding, a special family photo, or a keepsake then shop for a canvas print that is made with a special ink-receptive coating to protect the surface from cracking or fading. A museum-quality canvas print at Zazzle is stunning and will last a lifetime. But if you want to update the walls in your home with affordable wall art then shop for a faux canvas print or create your own canvas print by uploading a photo onto a template.

Know that I would not recommend a faux canvas print had I not bought one. See the image below. I created the deer print from a photograph I took with my phone. I then uploaded it to a template canvas print and it was easy to edit and create wall art for my home.

I was amazed at the finished product. The faux wrapped canvas print was not only the perfect size but it was also very easy to fold the edges to create the canvas look. I am very satisfied with my purchase as you can from the photo that it is quality made with colorful printing that is perfect.

 Buy a canvas print as shown or edit the print to remove the image and upload your own photo.  It is very easy to create your own work of art.  If you have a problem or have a question there is help available on the Zazzle website.

All Over Printed Aprons for Everyone

Many people are spending more time at home and find that they are cooking meals, baking or they are doing crafts. Whatever you are doing you will find that an apron is a must.  


Cute plant lady pink and white apron for her


Normally I wear an apron when I garden because I do not want my clothes to get soiled but thanks to COVID-19 and the stay-at-home orders I find that I am cooking more and need an apron to keep food stains from my clothing.

Zazzle came out with some all-over printed aprons that I really like. The aprons are made from polyester which means they will not wrinkle and after you launder them they will not need ironing. Your apron will look perfect (no wrinkles) at all times no matter what you are doing.

Monogram Green Stripe with Carrots Garden Girl Apron


Farmhouse Style Blue Gingham and Carrots Apron



Here is an apron that I designed for kids. It's the perfect size for a girl to wear when she makes cookies, grow and plant flowers, or does crafts.  You can personalize this apron with your kid's name.

View this purple flower apron here


The aprons are available in 3 sizes for adults (men and women), and for kids. Each apron comes with a neck strap and adjustable waist string to ensure the best fit. This apron is one you will want to be seen in and you may want to wear one that goes with your outfit.

I bought the pink apron (shown above) to wear when I am working in the garden. The plant lady apron was created for the florist, gardener, or person that is crazy about gardening. The apron features a darling pink and white stripe on the bottom and on the bib is the flower pot design with a cartoon bumblebee. An apron like this would be a thoughtful gift. 

Shop for all aprons shown and other apron designs in the collection below.

Small Bedroom Space Saver Tips


So many of the new homes have really small bedrooms. It seems that the master bedroom is a decent size but the other bedrooms seem to pay the price. Like many people, I have a decent size master bedroom but my other bedrooms are small. In order to make the bedroom appear larger, I needed to save some space.

Save space in a bedroom by buying a twin-sized bed with drawers located directly underneath This bed with drawers will eliminate the need for a chest of drawers. You can create a more spacious look in your bedroom with built-in bookshelves with cabinets instead of freestanding shelving.

Here is a room set that I did to show my customer how she could save space in her daughter's small bedroom. 


.Another way to save space is to buy a raised bed that has a built-in desk underneath. These raised beds look like bunk beds only there isn’t a lower bed. Kids seem to love this bed ensemble.

My niece had a really small bedroom so her Dad created a loft sleeping area for her. He then created a study area underneath the loft. By raising the bed to the loft area her bedroom was more spacious.

My sister saved space in her small bedroom by installing a Murphy Bed. When the bed is locked into the wall your room will look very spacious. My sister has her office in that room along with a potted palm tree and a comfy chair. When she needs the room for guests she will utilize the Murphy bed.

When shopping for furniture select a small frame bed and a nightstand as large furniture would make the room look less spacious.

Buy plastic storage containers and put a few on the top shelf of the closet for past-season clothing. This will free up space in the drawers and your clothes that are hanging will not look cramped.

Well, those are some ideas that I thought I would share with all of you on how to save space in a small bedroom.

Floral Tote Bags / My Zazzle Top Picks


When it comes to choosing my Zazzle top picks for tote bags I find that I prefer warm-season-styled bags. I also tend to shop for durable bags that can be used every day and for grocery shopping. I find these bags to be useful to my needs.

.


Warm-season tote bags can be used throughout the spring and summer seasons. I like floral prints because they are perfect for gift-giving and the florals are colorful and go with many outfits.

In the past, I have bought a few tote bags from Zazzle. The bags are all quality-made bags that are durable. You can use them every day or take the bag to the beach, or pool, or use them for shopping at the mall or grocery store.

Valentines Day Clothing and Accessories



When it comes to Valentine’s Day many people will put together an outfit that represents the holiday. For adults, this holiday represents the love that they feel for each other so they will wear the color red or pink. They may wear a heart pattern or they may wear a pattern that features red roses. For children, it's a day to “dress up” in Valentine's outfit for school or parties.  On this holiday children will hand out friendly “will you be my Valentine” cards to their friends and their classmates.
Valentine's Day holiday is represented by red hearts, red roses, chocolates, and the wearing of clothing that indicates that you love the holiday or that you are in love with that special someone. Overall Valentine’s day is a fun day of gift-giving, exchanging of holiday cards, and expressing love to each other.


Women will wear shirts with a valentines day pattern, or they may wear accessories, earrings, necklaces, scarf, or even a belt. Men will wear a heart pattern tie to work and if they take their special someone out for dinner, they will dress to impress and wear Valentine’s Day printed tie.

Dressing up for Valentine’s Day is fun for kids and adults. Here are a few of my fashion and accessory designs and other designer products that I found at Zazzle.   

Happy Valentine's Day everyone, and don’t forget that this holiday is on February 14th

Beer Steins For Daily Use or Occasion Gifts


Beer steins come in a variety of styles, and shapes and are made out of stoneware, pewter, porcelain, glass, and ceramic. Some have hinged tops with a thumb lever that is used to open the lid so that you can drink from the stein. and others have open tops. Steins are used for drinking beer however at my house we use them as a display on our mantle and in a glass case. Rarely do we drink beer from them but that is not to say that we have not enjoyed them over the years during the holidays and at an Oktoberfest dinner.


The classic beer stein that you would find in Germany or Bavaria is made out of stoneware and the designs are quite unique. The steins are usually sold for special occasions like a housewarming party, a holiday, or for a special event. Many people collect the steins because of their style and ornamental designs.

Since my husband is a collector I make a point to buy him a stein every Christmas. He has a few pewter steins with hinged tops that are from the early 1900s and are handmade German steins. These antiques never come out of the glass cabinet. They are truly prized for their craftsmanship. He also collects the Budweiser Clydesdale steins, the holiday series that began in 1980. Like any collector, my husband will buy steins that are part of a series, antique steins, and steins for everyday usage.



The beer steins at Zazzle are perfect for everyday use or for giving at a housewarming. birthday, Christmas, or another occasion gift. The stein features a traditional German design that has ornate borders at the rim and base and a detailed handle. The beer stein is available in 2 colors; white with metallic gold and gray with blue color.  Another feature is that you can buy them as shown or you can upload your own photograph or logo and make your own.

What I liked about Zazzle’s beer steins is they have good look at them and we can use them daily if we want and do not have to worry if they are broken. They would also be thoughtful Christmas gifts or housewarming gifts for anyone who likes to drink beer.


Here are a few of my favorite stein designs. All were created by the independent designers at Zazzle.

Remembrance Christmas Tree Ornaments

When it comes to the holidays you may be missing a loved one who passed away, or you may be sad because you are thinking of your beloved pet.  If you find that you are feeling blue then it is helpful to create a remembrance Christmas ornament for your holiday tree.
  

It's always hard to have a loved one pass away. Please know that the remembrance ornament is a way to not feel so sad during the Christmas season 
My niece lost her mother to cancer when she was just a child and she is always sad during the Christmas holidays because it was her mom’s favorite time of the year. So this year I found a photograph of my niece and she has her hand on her mother's. It was such a nice remembrance photo of her family. I went to Zazzle and I created an ornament out of the photograph. Uploading my photo was easy to do and I could not be happier with the ornament that I designed.

If you would like to create a remembrance ornament then here is the template that I created. You may use it or you may choose another design. I find the metal backing is nice especially if the photographs are older. It is made very well and the ceramic ornament is protected from the metal encasing



I shipped the ornament directly to my niece and when she received it she said that she cried. They were happy tears, loving tears as she remembered the day that the photo was taken and how she had so much fun with her mom and her cousins.

 She told me now my mom is part of my Christmas celebration because of this remembrance ornament. From this Christmas forward when my niece decorates her Christmas tree with her remembrance ornament she will be keeping the memory of her mother alive through her memories.

This ornament I created this to remember my mother. All of the beaded and sequin ornaments on this tree my mom had made when she was recovering from breast cancer. She told me it was good to stay busy doing the things she loved.
