Define the blank
List fabric composition, weight or hand-feel target, fit, size range, colors, and care expectations. Provide the actual blank if it is already selected. A decoration sample on a different shirt is not approval of the final item.
Create a t-shirt decoration brief that separates blank specifications, artwork, application, inspection, and fulfillment responsibilities.
Buyer perspective
A request for custom shirts can mean finished garments, decoration applied to buyer-supplied blanks, or loose transfers for a separate decorator. Those models carry different sampling and quality responsibilities. Establish the model before comparing unit prices.

Buying matrix
Use the responsibility map to compare like-for-like proposals from shirt and decoration suppliers.
| Line item | Evidence to record |
|---|---|
| Finished shirts | The supplier quote should name the blank, decoration, placement approval, finished inspection and packout scope. |
| Buyer-supplied blanks | The buyer provides the exact garment and agrees on damage, shortage and overage handling before decoration. |
| Loose transfers | The buyer or another decorator owns application testing, alignment and finished-item inspection. |
A price comparison is meaningful only after every task has an owner and the sample represents that model. Confirm who checks decorated garments before individual packing and who signs off on the size-by-color breakdown at dispatch.
What to decide
List fabric composition, weight or hand-feel target, fit, size range, colors, and care expectations. Provide the actual blank if it is already selected. A decoration sample on a different shirt is not approval of the final item.
Supply final-size artwork, location measurements, color or stone references, and the required process. Note seams and prints near the application area. Approve at least one decorated garment in a representative size and color.
Ask whether the quote includes blank procurement, application, finished-item inspection, individual packing, and shipping. Give quantities by size and color. Document who remedies a defect discovered after decoration.
Send your artwork, quantity, destination, and specifications for a tailored quote.

Review the Custom Rhinestone T-Shirts Wholesale category for finished garment references. State the sourcing model and blank specification, artwork placement, and size-color quantities.
