Every once in a while, we have relatives come for a visit. Since we both are not from Singapore, naturally our relatives are also foreigners. That’s when we quickly rush to the nearest souvenir shop to grab gifts for them. Believe me, after a while, it’s not easy, especially because many shops sell imported items from other countries.

It wouldn’t be funny to give my cousin Indonesian batik, would it? Anyways, which youngsters would wear batik nowadays, unless they’re invited to meet the president. So we’ve bought lots of fridge magnets, key chains, postcards, Merlion t-shirts, chocolate — all those things you see in every souvenir shop.

We definitely need something unique, something which can be customized to meet individual taste. How about personalized t-shirts?

Actually, you can order it online. So whether it’s for you — since you have particular style in the fashion department — or for your friend, you can create your own custom t-shirts on bluecotton.com.

Fret not about having to pay more for the shipping. As long as you live in the US, standard delivery is free. What’s better is that they have this “Money Back Guarantee” for unsatisfied customers.

Oh, and the above picture is a sample of my design. Don’t forget, you too can make yours.
