Melted Snowman Tee

Not for sale yet. This design is a preview, so there's nothing to buy today.

A snowman T-shirt for the end of winter: everything a snowman leaves behind after the thaw, set out around the puddle he turned into.

The scarf, the old felt hat, the carrot, the coal eyes, three coal buttons and two twig arms are laid out neatly, the way a museum lays out finds from a dig.

Color: Washed Denim

Relaxed, boxy heavyweight tee with dropped shoulders. Most people take their usual size; size up one for an oversized look.

Care

Garment-dyed, so each shirt's color varies slightly. Wash cold to keep the length.

Colors on screen are approximate, and light inks can look slightly tinted on red or maroon shirts. A faint square around the print right out of the package is the printer's pretreatment and washes out in the first wash.

Observe a little closer.

There's no face and no sad melting snowman here, only his things. At the bottom a crocus is coming up through the dirt, which is how you know the snow is done for the year. It came from one round of three drafts.

Print artwork: what is left of a snowman after the thaw, laid out around a pale blue puddle: a red and cream striped knitted scarf, a dented brown felt hat, a carrot, two lumps of coal for eyes, three coal buttons in a row and two forked twig arms, with a few last patches of snow. At the bottom, a purple crocus bud is coming up through the dirt.
