In January, Fun-Tastic Photo Favors added something new to its repertoire: the Fun-Tastic T-shirt Company, letting guests at an event create their own T-shirts. Attendees can select from tanks, halters, tube tops, muscle tees, and more. They can also choose from hundreds of appliqués, crystals, and graphics. A company can use its own corporate logo or custom design by submitting it before an event. Fun-Tastic will create the iron-on decals and bring them to the event. —Vanessa Goyanes
