Sunflowers and Space ships

Thursday, July 24th, 2008

Lucy Brown continues to investigate the relationships between Kangaroos, chickens, pink clouds and space ships. The sunflowers are doing well this year, fighting off sustained attacks from slugs during the wet weather, as shown above. Paintings can be viewed here at Advertees, if you are happy to dodge the many boxes of T Shirts which […]

Earth Positive T Shirts

Saturday, July 19th, 2008

While some T shirt suppliers  suprise us with mid year price increases, others, namely Earth Positive look like closing the price gap on the non organic brands. As many companies start passing on rising fuel and energy costs to the consumer, Earth Positive will start to see a return on their investment in alternative energy […]

Chicken Strike

Wednesday, July 16th, 2008

The chicken strike is over. We are still uncertain as to why, but for the past week we have had no eggs. We looked everywhere for new laying spots, but found nothing. We don’t think it was in protest about accomodation or food? because they have only the best of everything. So we have to […]

Custom Surfboards

Saturday, July 12th, 2008

With the current weather and surf situation set to continue a little retail therapy could be required, Empire are creating custom surfboards that take a different path. We like the look of their shorter boards. Designed to produce speed effortlessly and promote powerful and controlled turns, these handcrafted boards look like they will bring new […]

Organic T shirt printing

Tuesday, July 1st, 2008

It is turning into another very busy month at Advertees, and the blog is being neglected terribly, we are seeing some really nice jobs going out of the door unrecorded as we pull out all the stops to meet our deadlines. Our job conversion rate to water based inks is higher than ever, and the […]

Cool Earth

Wednesday, June 25th, 2008

It seems Cool Earth has found itself at the centre of much controversy and debate. Recent campaigns aimed at increasing awareness about the importance of the rainforest, and the rapid rate at which it is being plundered, generated interest on a massive scale, and some people are upset by their approach. Our opinion as T […]

Chicks

Tuesday, June 24th, 2008

Well this was supposed to be a big announcement on the blog at the time of hatching, but now more than a week has passed before we have found time to post a picture of the Advertees new additions, and they have wings already. The next time I update on their progress they are more […]

Coarse screens and half tones

Thursday, June 19th, 2008

It is pretty standard practice in screen printing to use very fine screens where a half tone is required, but unfortunately fine screens and water based inks do not work well together. So what do you do? Ignore everything you have been told about mesh counts and half tones! Experiment a little, good fades are […]

Saturday, June 14th, 2008

Spin bodyboarding have more hoodies printed to meet demand, we love these designs by Nancy Meaney. The bold colours work well and are a pleasure to work with.

Animals and fences

Saturday, June 7th, 2008

It has been a week of broken boundaries at Advertees, as we break all our previous records for T shirt printing production, poultry, cattle, and foxes have taken advantage of us being too busy to look outside the factory. They have found their way into places they shouldn’t be. Perhaps I should have made the […]

Royal Cornwall Show

Wednesday, June 4th, 2008

The royal Cornwall Show is under way! but sadly I can’t see myself making it down there, nothing to do with the rain! It is just busier than ever and not enough hours in the day. There is now a fox taking an interest in our chickens, we chased him off today and made lots […]

Waterbased inks

Tuesday, June 3rd, 2008

Although not ideal in all situations, and the ink a real nightmare to work with at times, water based screen printing can be extremely satisfying. This month has seen a big increase in jobs produced with water based inks, some customers have even changed their original ideas to suit the process. Companies buying Promotional t […]

Seriously! Chickens Keep Out

Sunday, June 1st, 2008

Just as expected I am finding it near impossible to make 10 minutes for the Blog, it seems the more things that happen that are worth writing about, the less time you have to write about it, and as blogging is all about whats happening today it seems a lot of interesting jobs will go […]
