Description
This substitute teacher DTF transfer features the word 'SUBSTITUTE' stacked in bold black type five times with a oversized yellow grunge smiley face — X eyes, crooked grin — layered right over the center for an edgy, retro-rock vibe. Ready to press DTF transfer, heat press and go.
Made for:
- Tee shirt maker or small shop owner building a teacher and school staff collection.
- Crafting mama personalizing a gift tee for the favorite substitute teacher in her life.
- A substitute teacher treating herself to the most relatable shirt in the staff lounge.
Press it on:
- Tees and hoodies — the bold black stacked text pops on light colors and pastels just like this pink blank, keeping the retro edge front and center.
- Perfect for teacher appreciation events, back-to-school staff gifting, and school spirit weeks where subs finally get their moment.
- Tote bags and canvas pouches — the square graphic transfers beautifully and makes a great everyday carry for the sub on the go.
Open the press, pull the film hot, quick re-press to lock it in, and the next blank is already going on. It's a workflow that rewards you for moving fast — and the design looks just as good on shirt one as it does on shirt thirty for a teacher appreciation set run.
