If you are going to be working on props for your stage, especially for high seas, you should check out Make It Mikes for some ideas.  Mike has ideas for past VBS's and High Seas, but I'm sure many of them can be adapted for any theme.  Easy ways to make Sails, Ropes, Seagulls, and more!

When it comes to T-Shirts for VBS what works good for you? Do you charge for them or give them away when people register? Do they pre-order or do you order a bunch of shirts ahead of time?  What about the leftovers?

Share your experience!

Are you planning on having your VBS during the day or in the evening this year?  There seems to be lots of opinions but it would like to here from you regarding the pros and cons, and why you do VBS in the day or night?

Any help and advice you can share would be appreciated!  Thanks in advance!

The Designs are ready for Galactic Blast!!!  I'm still working on some descriptions for each design but take a look and let us know what you think!

I'm still working on most of the designs for 2010, we have had a very busy January and so I am a little behind on these.  I do have most of the designs up for Saddle Ridge, and High Seas however....  So take a look and please let me know what you would like me working on for your church!

I'm working like crazy on new designs for 2010 vbs T-Shirts.  I have already uploaded some of the High Seas stuff we have been working on and I'm very excited.  Don't worry, I'm not done yet and will be uploading tons of new designs over the next month to six weeks!

Take a look at our new website designed for your whole church!  MinistryGear.com has been on my heart for over 3 years,  the success of vbs T-Shirts has given me the encouragement I needed to finally get it off the ground.  Our goal is to have 1000 design templates by the end of the year!  So we will be adding designs daily!
