Last week at the Design Lab, I had the opportunity to create custom shirts for my student organization, Black Students in Aerospace! It was an exciting and rewarding process, seeing our design come to life using the Lab’s Vinyl Cutter.

Our design was relatively detailed, so the cutting process took some time. But once we started weeding the excess vinyl, the final image really started to shine. With help from the amazing Design Lab staff, we were able to heat press the design onto our shirts—adding that final professional touch.

Not only was this a great way to learn more about the Lab’s creative tools, but it also became a meaningful bonding experience for our leadership team. We’re looking forward to more projects like this in the future!
