Endings and New Beginnings: Toys R Us Closing and Toy Story Land Opening

Spoiler Alert: We did not attend the opening of Toy Story Land at Disney Hollywood Studios in Florida. In fact we have not been inside of a Disney park since 2011. Nevertheless, we are excited about the opening of this new land.

Back to the blog: The 4Craig family is very sad and excited this week. One of the kids' favorite stores closed this week. Toys R Us closed its doors Friday night for the last time. Our kiddos looked forward to the yearly trek to Toys R Us to spend the $3 gift card Jeffrey sent for their birthdays. They also had money to spend from grandparents. We also went other times during the year too. It was a special treat for the kids to go to toy store, if only to browse.

So when we heard the news Toys R Us is closing, the kids were devastated. There was something special about a kid browsing through aisles and aisles of a store made just for them. The 12-year-old said his childhood is gone. His younger brother agreed. Their childhood would never be the same. Yesterday was a sad day.

That is until we arrived home and turned on YouTube. Yes, we are a YouTube family and many YouTubers were live streaming on YouTube for the soft opening of Toy Story Land. Suddenly their childhood was back. We watched video of the awesome Slinky Dog Coaster and laughed at everyone getting dizzy on the alien swirling saucers. We imagined ourselves walking through the park, which is themed to be Andy's backyard and we're the size of a toy.

Lesson learned: Childhood fun is still around if you look in the right place.

So today, Saturday, June 30, 2018, is the opening day. We don't have plans to go because of our budget. Even though we are in Florida right now (we live in Michigan), we won't be doing any of the theme parks. But the land already did what it's supposed to do. It brought us joy and laughter.

Since we are a T-Shirt blog, I thought I would show you a t-shirt inspired by love, happiness, and amusement parks. I even lowered the price for one week to $19.99, after which it will go back to $25.99. It's our Happiness Happens Tee. No, it's not the Disney Castle but it's a fun tee that reminds you of the fun of a theme park. This t-shirt comes in five different colors (navy and royal blue, yellow, green, and gray) and in men's, women's, and kids' sizes.

Sneak Peek at Christmas 2017 Tee Shirt Designs

It's that time of the year again...the time before Halloween but Christmas has already started popping up throughout our the stores. And some Christmas commercials on tv. Yes, it's early but people are already buying the stuff, or else they wouldn't be doing it. Probably.

In fact, I have already sold more Christmas than Halloween shirts for the year. Although I haven't sold many Halloween tees, so perhaps that's nothing to brag about. We have a few Christmassy designs up for sale and I have a few more planned, so I decided to give you a sneak peek. In case you are one of the early shoppers. If you don't see one you like, don't worry, we'll have a few more designs and topics coming out soon.

Most of these tees come in five different colors and men's, women's, and kid's sizes. We tried to get as much red and green colors as possible. But we added some other ones in case someone wants to be different or in case the red, green, and black run out, which happens closer to Christmas often times. If you would like to see them on Amazon, click on the title under the tee.

Believe Santa and Flying Reindeer

We decided to go with the simple silhouette look for this tee.

Believe Baby Jesus in the Manger

We have a few different Christian themes, we'll show the others later, but for this one, we went simple with Baby Jesus.

Feliz Navidad Santa Hat

We also did Merry Christmas in other languages but decided to show this one for the sneak peak.

Thankful and Bless Ugly Sweater

You can wear this one for Thanksgiving and/or all Christmas season long. We have many other sayings in this design too. Watch for an upcoming blog post where we share them.

Happy Birthday Jesus Ugly Christmas Sweater

We combined two trends, the ugly sweater and the religious Christmas theme.

I Just Want to Bake Cookies and Watch Christmas Movies

Fun theme for anyone who wants to stay home this holiday season.

As I said before, we'll post more designs and themes later. This is just a sneak peek. If you missed it, take a look at our last blog post,

Tees for Freakin' Cold People

Tees for Freakin' Cold People

I'm Freakin Cold Red and Green Knit Hat

It has been a lovely fall here in Michigan. It started out cold in early September, but the temperatures have been moving around cool to warm and back again. But a cold front has moved through so these wonderful temps may be over for the year. Hopefully, you have had a lovely fall too.

Now, I have lived in Michigan my entire life. I love to visit other places and climates (especially in the winter), but this is my home. I have family who has decided to move to a warmer climate. The funny thing is that even though they lived in Michigan for many decades, after a few years in Florida and Texas, they can no longer tolerate the cold winter temperatures. In fact, it only took one winter in the warm climate to undo the decades of winter toleration. Last February (I think) we were out in jeans and t-shirts in 50-degree weather while my family was wearing winter coats and gloves in 50-degree weather.

These t-shirt designs are for them. Currently, with the Amazon program we are designing with, you can only purchase our designs on short sleeve tees. We hope that will change later. Nevertheless, you can layer these shirts under a zipped hoodie or over a long sleeve shirt. They come in men's, women's, and kids' fits and in five different colors.

I'm Freakin cold Black and Turquoise Winter Hat

I'm So Freaking Freezing White Snowflake

I'm Freaking Freezing Icy Snowflake

Cold Penguin on a Tropical Island

We hope you found a shirt you like, for you or your favorite cold person. If you want to see the shirts on Amazon, click on the title below the shirt.

Check out our Halloween t-shirt posts, but you should check the shipping times with Amazon to make sure you can get them shipped to you in time for Halloween.

Fidget Spinner Halloween Tee Shirt Designed by a Nine-Year-Old

My son told me he wanted to be a t-shirt designer when he grows up. I am pleased with the fact that he wants to do that over my other side job - custodian. Nevertheless, I told him he didn't have to wait until he grows up. He can do it now. So he designed one. I was by his side while he was on Photoshop and let him use commercial art we already had a license to sell (he's not ready to make his own art just yet, but he's getting there). He came up with a concept, decided on fonts, and we set out to create this fun t-shirt. Then we talked about trademarks and infringement, shirt colors, keywords, and price. He made the decisions and now it's up for sale.

Perhaps it's too late to do put a new Halloween shirt up for sale, but we did it anyway. He loves fidget spinners and Halloween. May this be the first in many designs for this budding graphic designer. I hope you enjoy it. If you are interested in buying this tee, click here or on the title under the picture.

Sale Pediatric Cancer Awareness T-Shirts for $12.99

September is Pediatric (or Childhood) Cancer Awareness Month. We have battled pediatric cancer in our house three different times. Thankfully, he beat the cancer. But years later, we still are dealing with the side effects. In fact, we deal with the side effects every day. Decisions on how we school the kids and what we are having for dinner are still made with cancer side effects in mind.

We made two basic designs for this month. They are both in a yellow gold color. Gold is supposed to be the color of ribbon for pediatric cancer awareness. However, gold doesn't print well on t-shirts, so we did various shades of golden yellow.

We also had a hard time choosing a price point for our shirts. We debated about selling them at regular price and then donating the profits to charity. Or we could price them very low so everyone could afford them and those who wanted and were able to could donate the extra money to their favorite pediatric cancer charity. We chose to price the shirts low so we could get the word out. Our son had cancer three times, and we were poor. We didn't have the money to buy fancy shirts, even ones that gave the money extra money to charity.

These shirts are priced so that almost anyone can afford them. All but one are $12.99 (there is one, a premium tee, for $14.99 because premium tees are more expensive to produce). We also made lots of different designs so mom, sister, brother, survivor, warrior, and friends could have one to wear. If you see one we missed, let us know and we can get the design up for you at this great price.

Go Gold so everyone can be aware of childhood cancer. Click on this link to see all of our pediatric cancer awareness shirts. The listings all come in five different colors and men's, women's, and kids' sizes. If you want one of these designs in a different color or with a different word, leave a comment below and I can make up the shirt and the listing at this same $12.99 price. It's all about awareness.

September is Pediatric, Gynecological, and Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month

September is a very somber month for us at 4Craig. One of the our family members had pediatric cancer - acute lymphoblastic leukemia. He had it three times actually. So when Pediatric (childhood, as some call it) Cancer Awareness Month comes around, we try to make others aware. Because kids are still diagnosed with cancer every day around the world and kids are still dying from cancer.

Thankfully, for the 4Craig family, we survived it and are thriving. But there are others who weren't so fortunate. So it is for all the warriors, survivors, and those in heaven that have had to fight this dreaded disease we made this design.

Pediatric Cancer Awareness Shirts

That link actually takes you to an Amazon page with different versions of this t-shirt design. It has options for mom, dad, sister, brother, warrior, survivor, nurse, child life staff. Gold is the color of childhood cancer ribbons, but we decided to make the design in various shades of golden yellow because it prints better. It is a large ribbon made up of smaller ribbons, hearts, and suns.

Ovarian Cancer Survivor Shirt

September is also Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month. Although, we don't have personal experience with this cancer, our hearts are saddened that people are fighting it too. Teal is the color for ovarian cancer, so we made a teal watercolor design of the same shirt.

Women's Gynecological Cancer Awareness Shirt

Yes, ovarian cancer is part of woman's gynecological cancers. But we decided to make two different shirts so they can choose. I hope you like these design. Sometimes women's gynecological cancers get forgotten about because pink for breast cancer awareness starts showing up in September. But lets give these ones their due. These cancers can be called silent cancers because there aren't too many signs that it's growing in your body. So the more awareness the better.

If you think there is a market for more than these shirts -- such as you would like to see a nurse ovarian cancer shirt, comment below and we'll see what we can do for you. Also, we can make these in different colored shirts too.

Remember the Total Solar Eclipse with these Fun T-Shirts

Were you in the path of totality? Or did you watch a partial eclipse today? We were in Michigan, streaming the various cities in the path of totality and we were able to experience the partial eclipse. Still cool, but nothing like those who experienced the total eclipse. Nevertheless, we designed some shirts for those who were able to experience the eclipse today.

We did a post three weeks ago on some eclipse shirts we had for sale. You can view that post here. But today, we are posting some shirts for people who experienced the eclipse. It sounds like it was an amazing experience, and we did our best to capture that on tees.

I Saw Baily's Beads

No Bailey isn't spelled wrong. We checked a few times :) This is a tee for anyone in the path of totality. Just before total darkness and just before the ring comes back, you can experience Baily's Beads. That's right, during a total solar eclipse, you can see them two times if you are in the path of totality. This only comes in black but it comes in kids', men's, and women's fits.

Shadow Bands are Totality Awesome

Even if you did get to see the total solar eclipse, you may not have seen the shadow bands. It doesn't happen every time. Some say they look like parallel snakes on the ground. Did you see them? We'd love to hear about them in the comments below if you don't mind. This comes in five different shirt colors and men's, women's, and kids' fits.

I Saw the Shadow Bands

Again, if you were able to see the shadow bands, you are among a small group of people. Why not brag about it with this fun tee? The words "Shadow Bands" were designed to look like the squiggly snakes they are rumored to look like. They are so rare and hard to photograph it was hard to find a picture, so we read about them and used our imaginations. This comes in five colors and men's, women's, and kids' sizes.

Just Another Cloudy Day Eclipse Shirt

There was clear skies across much of the US today, but for some unfortunate viewers, there was clouds covering the sun. If that was you, this design was made just for you. It comes in men's, women's, and kids' sizes and five different colors. We chose bright colors to make it a happy shirt even if you didn't feel that way when you watched.

Totality was Awesome 2017

If this eclipse was an awesome experience for you, this may be your design. It only comes in black, but it also comes in men's, women's, and kids' sizes.

I hope you had as much or more fun than we did experiencing the eclipse. These tees will help you and your family remember this day for years to come. Buy them for birthday gifts or Christmas gifts. Buy them to wear back to school. Or get them just because this eclipse was totality awesome.

Summer Camping

We are taking a little time off from designing shirts to plan for a camping trip. I know many of you are already thinking of back to school, but, here in Michigan, summer vacation lasts until Labor Day. We get to enjoy summer most of June, all of July and all of August. So we enjoy camping.

Perhaps not enjoy it so much as enjoy the memories of it. It's hard to go camping when you are the adult. Actually it tires me out to prepare for it, so I usually start the trip tired and am exhausted by the end of it. However, spending time with your family is worth the hassle. We have so many great memories of camping on Lake Michigan on the beach, hearing Tahquamenon- Falls from our tent at night, hikes into the woods, letterboxing on Mackinaw Island, finding yummy homemade ice cream shops, cooking dinner over a campfire, playing games as a family. These are memories we'll cherish after the kids have moved out and have families of their own.

We here at 4Craig are tent campers. We would love an RV, but we don't want to go into debt to pay for it. So we use a tent. There's an argument about whether RV camping is really camping but for what we love about camping, you can use an RV or a tent. You can get away from your normal schedule and your normal life in an RV or a tent. Although, it seems easier to do in a tent, it's cheaper and you are not tempted to sit on the couch and watch TV because most tents do not have them.

We love camping so much that we even made shirts about camping -- RV and a tent versions. Just click here.. We may not be designing, but we don't mind selling shirts right now :) We are also waiting for a new tent to be shipped here. It's instant so hopefully less arguments (not that we here at 4Craig shirts ever argue) and less time to set up our campsite.

What about you guys - Do you like to camp? Do you have any tips for us lowly tent campers? What is your favorite place to camp? Or do you like hotels better? I grew up in a hotel family so I didn't even pitch a tent until I was almost 30.

Have a fun rest of your summer vacation even if you don't have as long as we do to enjoy it. And for your viewing pleasure, here is our tent camping shirt for all of you tent campers:
