Are you an entrepreneur looking to design your own merchandise? 🙋 Have you heard that AI art is the way to go these days, but don’t know where to start? 🤷 Well, don’t worry because AIMERCHA has your back! In this blog post, we will be breaking down the steps of finding and using an AI art generator to design images for selling merchandise, like t-shirts, stickers, framed art, and more. 👕 Let’s get started!
Step 1: Pick an AI Art Generator. The first step in creating amazing designs is picking a good AI art generator. There are many options out there but one of my favorites is Midjourney—it has a powerful engine and incredible features. After you pick your generator, it’s time to get creative! 🎨
Step 2: Designing Images. Once you have chosen your generator, it's time to make some designs that you will later use for merch. 🖼️ You can create whatever kind of image or design that you want—from abstract shapes and patterns to cartoon characters and landscapes. 🏞️ Just let your creativity run wild! 🧑🎨
Step 3: Removing Backgrounds. Now that you have created all of your awesome designs, it's time to remove their backgrounds so they are ready for printing. 🖨️ To do this easily and quickly, use a tool like Vector Magic which can remove backgrounds with just a few clicks. Then, you’ll be ready to go! 🎉
Be sure to check out why we love Vector Magic—the amazing tool that can remove backgrounds and eliminate the need for an AI upscaler (although Gigapixel AI is a truly amazing AI upscaler; read more about it here).
Step 4: Uploading Designs. Now that your designs are background-free, upload them to a printing hub like Printify. You’ll be able to upload your image and start designing your own merch. 👕 Then you can set titles, prices, and descriptions and don't forget to deal with shipping prices if needed. 💳 Once everything looks good on the printing side of things it's time for the final step… 🥁 Get started on Printify so you can make one-of-a-kind merch with print-on-demand (POD) products.
