<\/a>I have a career waiting for me if I ever leave the loving embrace of Graphic Design: T-shirt design!<\/p>\n

While ordering my tea at my local Starbucks, the barista behind the cash notices my home made Boba Fett felt tee.<\/p>\n

“OHMYGOD That is a-maz-ing!”<\/p>\n

Other baristas stop what they’re doing and look over. “COOL!” “AWESOME!” etc.<\/p>\n

“Where did you get it?” one asks<\/p>\n

“I made it myself. I’m teaching myself to sew…”<\/p>\n

I barely get the last bit out when I’m interrupted by “NO! WAY!!!”<\/p>\n

“Can you make me one? How much do you charge?”<\/p>\n

I consider this for a moment. Materials, time and profit factored in would probably jack the shirt up to about $40. If I wasn’t a greedy artist and dropped “time” and “profit” I could make one for about $17.<\/p>\n

“A lot,” I respond. I don’t even want to get into the whole copyright thing.<\/p>\n

Nice to know I could fall back on my skills, though.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
