Whether you have a specific design in mind or need help getting started, our expert staff will guide you through the process.
This blog post explores the two most popular custom printing techniques: embroidery and screen printing. Understanding the advantages of each will help you choose the best option for your project.

The Elegance of Embroidery

Embroidery involves stitching a design onto fabric using thread and a needle. It's often the preferred choice for creating a classic and professional look, perfect for logos or text on items like:
  • Business shirts
  • Dress shirts
  • Uniforms
  • Jackets
  • Hats
The raised threads add dimension and sophistication to the design. At GetBold, we use special threads with a vibrant sheen to make your logo or design truly pop. Embroidery is ideal for projects where you want a touch of prestige.

The Boldness of Screen Printing

Screen printing is a technique where ink is forced through a mesh stencil onto fabric. This creates a smooth, two-dimensional design that appears as if it's been painted directly onto the garment. Screen printing is perfect for:
  • T-shirts
  • Sweatshirts
  • Tote bags (great for eco-friendly promotions!)
This method allows for larger, more vibrant designs and intricate details that may not be achievable with embroidery. Screen printing is also the most cost-effective option for bulk orders.
