slice&dice 2,450 Posted December 31, 2013 Good day to you, matey. It has been reported in the news that Washington State is about to embark upon a unique endeavor, with the legalization of cannabis. Although you obviously cannot be part of the distribution and sale of it (at retail level), there is plenty of golden-green opportunity to create apparel that reflects the new reality in your state. Hats and t-shirts with your custom-designed messages might be big sellers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coaster36 327 Posted December 31, 2013 Welcome to the forum. This place is full of great people who love to help each other. There are a few active duty and retired members on the forum. Myself being one of them. I started just like you and taught myself all I know with a lot of help from the forum. I have since upgraded to a graphtec and will soon be buying a heat press. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have but better yet post the questions on the forum to help everyone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mabscotthandyman 1,410 Posted January 1, 2014 Hello and welcome from West Virginia. And a big thank you for serving. There is a lot of info here .....if you are going to setup up a stand you may want to stock up on vectors in images that you think will sell in your area . Also signs, banners, window and door lettering are great revenue areas. That is all I do I do not sell decals. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
