You are probably not familiar with screen printing techniques, and you have chosen a rather tough first design task.

There are many ways to do this, some look better than others, this is a cheap nasty way, that won't last that long.

Simply get some white paint, a black tshirt, (apologies if you get offended by my desire to make the instructions simple), and masking tape.

Make your text outline with the masking tape, leaving the black tshirt exposed where you want your text. Then paint.

I got these iron on transfer sheets from "staples".
it was 20$ for five 8 x 11 sheets.
"Avery" brand.
They worked perfect.

I'm glad you didn't say iron on letters.

Such uncreativity would have resulted in a slap.

just print a thin black outline of the letters or symbol on a white transfer sheet.
the use an exacto knife & cutting board. Take your time.

Other than that all i could suggest is pay someplace to creat you a shirt.

I made my own Vandit shirt a few years back doing exactly what you want to do. Putting white letters on a black shirt. What you need specifically are dark T-Shirt transfers. I bought a pack of 10 online for like 10 bucks or something really cheap. This is the best way to do this unless you want to pay a high fee. I called around to probably 5 or 6 T-Shirt businesses around my area and all of them said to do a 1 off like that would be too expensive and would not be worth their time.

Use iron-on letters.
