"My TBR Said NO" a vintage stack-of-books illustration with cheeky hand-lettered script, screen-printed in deep red ink on a soft cream tee from our bestselling Comfort Colors 1717 blank. This boutique tee was born from late nights in our Houston print shop, where every screen is hand-pulled with the kind of care that turns a basic blank into the one she keeps reaching for in the closet.
Designed for Independent bookstores, bookish subscription boxes, library and book-club gift shops, and Southern boutiques stocking the booktok and TBR-pile reader. The deep red ink on the soft cream base photographs beautifully for IG flat lays and reorders quickly thanks to a clean screen print on our heavyweight Comfort Colors 1717 garment-dyed blank. Wholesale-ready, screen-printed in Texas, and sized generously for the relaxed boutique fit your customers ask for by name.
Styles with high-waisted jeans, biker shorts, slip skirts, and the canvas tote already too full of library holds. Stocked deep on the same garment-dyed heavyweight blank that boutique buyers from Austin to Atlanta have made the standard for screen-printed apparel: soft enough to live in, structured enough to sell at premium boutique price points.
