How to Turn Your Art Into Products Without Any Upfront Costs

You’ve got the designs. You’ve got the style. Maybe people say, “This would make a great T-shirt!” or “I’d buy this as a print!”

The problem? No budget to order hundreds of products, no space to store inventory.

With print-on-demand, you don’t need any of that. You can turn your art into sellable products without investing in stock, equipment, or production upfront.

Here’s how to get started.

1. Choose the Right Print-on-Demand Platform

Not all POD platforms are made the same. Some focus on poster prints and phone cases, others on textiles, home decor, or apparel.

At Caspar Create, we offer a flexible setup for artists and small brands, including:

• AOP (All-Over Printing): Ideal for tote bags, blankets, pillowcases, and custom fabrics

• DTG (Direct-to-Garment Printing): Perfect for detailed prints on T-shirts, hoodies, and apparel

• Fabric Printing: High-quality prints on fabrics for sewing, resale, and collections

• Embroidery: Durable logos or text on caps, sweatshirts, totes, and more

Combine techniques depending on your designs, and take advantage of small batch production to test and grow without pressure.

Products your art can live on:

• AOP tote bags

• Flannel fleece blankets

• Custom-printed fabrics: like Viscose Twill and Cotton Canvas

• Pillowcases and home textiles

• DTG T-shirts and hoodies

• Embroidered totes, sweatshirts, hats, and more

Your art doesn’t have to sit in a file. It can become real, high-quality products — without any upfront cost.

2. Upload Your Designs

No technical skills required. Just prepare your artwork in high resolution (300 DPI recommended), ideally as PNG or JPEG.

Need help with repeat patterns or fabric placement? We guide you through the process, especially if it’s your first time.

3. Pick the Products That Fit Your Art

Not every design works on every product — and that’s okay.

• Soft watercolors → Flannel fleece blankets

• Graphic line work → Pillowcases and tote bags

• Repeating motifs → Fabric printing and AOP T-shirts

• Illustrations and characters → DTG T-shirts and hoodies

• Simple logos or text → Embroidery on sweatshirts or hats

We’ll help you match your art with the right materials and techniques if you’re unsure.

4. Sell Through Your Own Channels

Keep it simple:

• Sell through Shopify or WooCommerce

• Take pre-orders to test demand

• Share product mockups before printing

No inventory means you can experiment freely and release new collections regularly.

5. We Print and Ship It for You

Once a customer orders, we handle:

• Printing, cutting, sewing

• Packing and shipping

No storage. No packaging stress. Just a smooth process that brings your art to life on real, useful products.

Why Artists Love Print-On-Demand

• Zero risk — you pay only when someone orders

• Creative freedom — launch as many designs as you want

• No logistics stress — focus on your art while we handle the rest
