Pressure Makes Diamonds

Last Thursday we printed the first official Collective Tee and we couldn’t be happier with the result!  Over the past couple of weeks we’ve been discussing stress and how to deal with it.  One thing is for sure; not all outlets are created equal.  The best solution: vent to people who love you and then make a tee.  So we did.

Pressure Makes Diamonds is our response to stress; an acknowledgment that stress comes with the territory of breathing and our responses (either positive or negative) shape the quality of our character.  Want one?  Don’t stress…we’ve printed a few to go around, and you can snag one of your own at the store.  They’re hand printed on a super soft AA V-neck 100% cotton tee.

It's probably the most exceptional group of high school students you'll ever meet.  Granted, I'm a little biased.  :DThe finished tee.
