How to make a personalized construction birthday t-shirt:

Here’s all you do:

1. PURCHASE my personalized digger t-shirt iron-on printable; once your payment is processed, you will receive a link to instantly DOWNLOAD via Etsy.

2. CUSTOMIZE the construction vehicle text using Adobe Reader 9 or above, a free download from Adobe.com available at Just type your desired text into the fields and voila! It will instantly update with your custom text. Have just an age, or just a name, or both a name and an age, it’s up to you!

This file will fit ages 1-9. Contact me for ages 10+.

3. PRINT the excavator on ink jet iron on transfer paper and cut out.

I recommend Avery Personal Creations InkJet Iron On Dark T Shirt Transfers. I like this product because it prints deep colors and also there is no need to reverse the pattern for an iron-on.

(NOTE: Be sure to read your purchased transfer product see if you need to print it backwards. If you need to reverse it then Go to “File…Print” then click the Copies & Pages dropdown and choose Layout. Click the checkbox “Flip Horizontally.” And here’s a tip: make sure when you print that the Page Scaling on your printer dialog is set to “print to fit” and its highest print quality by going to “Quality & Media” and setting “Print Quality” to High).

Peel off the back if you are using the Avery Personal Creations InkJet Iron On Dark T Shirt Transfers. If your nails are short like mine, you can carefully slip a craft knife between the backing and transfer to get the peeling started.

(For making a door decoration sign: I recommend this white card stock paper.)

4. IRON ON THE T-SHIRT by following the package directions.

I recommend a heather gray cotton t-shirt.

Let cool following package directions, peel away the ironing paper and voila! Personalized construction birthday party t-shirt.

We made this construction birthday party t-shirt as part of my son’s Liam’s Digger 2nd Birthday. He absolutely LOVED his construction birthday party t-shirt and asks to wear it again all the time!

Dig! Dig! Dig! Raccchaat! Raccchaat!

Be sure to pin this construction birthday party t-shirt for later:
