How to make t-shirts
It made me
lol. 
"Pretty mint."
How I did it:
I simply designed some images on my computer - illustrations - then I printed them and cut them out.
Using a spray bottle with bleach+water in it, I placed the stencil on a shirt and sprayed.
When it gets bright, carefully dunk it into a bucketful of water to wash out the bleach.
Lessons & tips: Use some good paper - when you spray the stencil, the water+bleach will wet the paper and can even make it curl up - if this happens, drops of the bleach stuff can fall off onto parts of the shirt that you DON'T want to have bleached.
Try not to spray too much - like above, if you do, drops of the bleach can get onto the parts of your shirt you don't want them on. Using too much can also soak the paper you use.

To me this is more about the fabric, shape and length rather then the prit its self.

Does anyone have any tips for making my own t shirts? I have one design that I would want to spray paint with a stencil type thing, and another few designs that would probably be good for silk screening. I know very little about silk screening, but i’ve done it before.
Is silk screening a waste if im only planning on making one copy of the shirt?
Also, what spray paint is best for spray painting shirts?

I have a side business making baby and kids shirts with my designs on them. It’s hard to make money from it, but it’s awesome to be able to make gifts and small custom runs. I use commercial ink-jet transfer paper and a small commercial grade heat press that I bought on E-Bay.

“Can someone explain the various ways that you can transfer designs to t-shirts? Which ways are cheaper, which ways are better, which ways let you use multiple colours?”
