Valentines - the newest heat printing holiday to add to your calendar

February 2023 has arrived quicker than ever and the next national holiday is almost upon us.

At this exact moment, a country full of couples, aspiring singles, gal pals and pet lovers are searching through Google for terms such as 'Valentine's Gift' 'Valentine's Tshirt' and 'Personalised Valentine's Gift'.

Its estimated that Brits spent approximately £1.37 billion on Valentines Day gifts in 2022. Now wouldn't you like to be making money off that statistic?

So how can you heat print for Valentines Day?

Tshirts and hoodies are as popular as ever at this time of year

With couples opting for cheesy fashionable designs to declare their feelings, why not try releasing a range of funky couple themed designs that you can stock all year round but push harder during the Valentines period.

Garments with slogans such as 'You're my lobster' or 'Take a pizza my heart' toe the line between Valentine's and general romance very well.

USE: UltraColour heat transfers or 1-5 Colour Screen Print (minimum order of 10) for this range as this will be the most economical option for your heat printing business.

Galantines

One of the few holidays out there applicable to ALL women.

Everyone has a best friend, right? Galentines is the lesser known holiday for all the best friends out there. Made famous during a 2010 episode of Parks and Recreation, best friends across the world have taken this holiday, ran with it and never looked back. Taking place the day before Valentine's Day on February 13th, this event might be considered a bonus profit opportunity to your Valentines garment range.

A range of best friend / gal pal themed garments tie in well as an garment collection that is suitable for sale all year round making it more sustainable to produce. Clever marketing and a heavier push during the Valentines period might just see this range sky rocket in February.

USE: UltraColour heat transfers or 1-5 Colour Screen Print (minimum order of 10) for this range as this will be the most economical option for your heat printing business.

Regardless of the time of year, we have the right heat transfer type for whatever heat printed garment range you're planning to release.
