All of our tees are tagless — no scratchy labels at the nape of the neck.

Our blanks are made from ring-spun cotton, which is softer and smoother than standard cotton. We use Bella + Canvas blanks, and the fabric is pre-shrunk so the fit stays consistent wash after wash.

We use direct-to-garment (DTG) printing, which bonds ink directly to the fabric rather than adding a thick layer on top — keeping the print breathable and low-texture.

Side seams run along the body of the shirt (not over the shoulder), reducing pressure points. Shoulder taping adds structure without bulk, helping the shirt lie flat and stay in place.

Coming soon: shirts without side seams! Having my own DTG printer means I can source other shirt blanks and expand our sensory-friendly options. These additional styles aren't available yet.

Our crew neck collars are ribbed but lay flat against the neck. If collar sensitivity is a concern, sizing up gives a looser neckline with less contact.

Our tees are cut as a relaxed unisex fit. Check the Unisex Tee Size Guide for measurements. Size up if you prefer more room around the arms or torso.

Made just for you, not pulled from a stack. Print-on-demand (POD) means your item is printed after you place your order, rather than being kept as ready-to-ship inventory.

Your made-to-order item needs time in production before it can begin its journey to you. Placing an order starts that process; it doesn't mean your package is already on its way.

Your total wait includes two stages: production time, while your item is made, and shipping time, while the carrier delivers it. A shipping-time estimate alone does not include production unless it explicitly says so. Please allow time for both, especially if you're ordering for a birthday, holiday, or other deadline.

Production demand, product availability, your delivery destination, holidays, and carrier delays can affect the timing. Delivery estimates are estimates, not guarantees, so we recommend ordering early when you need an item for a particular date.

Every design at The BirdHive is created and sold by the artist. When you shop here, you're buying directly from the person behind the art.

No. We do not use generative AI in any of our art. Print-on-demand is how your item is produced, not how our designs are created.

We currently use ethically sourced Bella + Canvas shirt blanks for our tees. These are the blank shirts that carry our original artwork. In-house printing will also let me source other blanks, including shirts without side seams. Those new options are coming soon.

Printful helps bring our designs to life through print-on-demand production. We work with Printful for its ethical sourcing practices and eco-friendly ink solutions.

Yes! I now have my own direct-to-garment (DTG) printer and will soon begin personally printing shirts in-house. Printful remains a production partner I rely on for help. Every design is still created and sold by me, whether a shirt is printed in my studio or with Printful's support.

We use Direct To Garment (DGT) printing. This means we use colorful inks that soak into the fibers of the shirt so they stay flexible and breathable!

DTG, Direct to Garment, designs are printed using non-toxic vegan inks that ensure the garments are safe for adults and children. DTG-printed designs soak into the clothing fibers. This prevents cracking over time, and allows the design to be flexible, so it moves with you. The process uses machines that are energy-efficient, produce zero wastewater, and are sustainable
