About badknees

badknees was born in a basement around 2015 while I was working full time as a high school English teacher. I dabbled in screen printing since my early 20s, always approaching it in the most diy manners because that is the only way I knew how. In 2015, though, I started getting a bit more serious about it and learning various ways to make cool T-shirts. Which takes us to now. I resigned my teaching position in 2019 after doing it for 11 years ( a decision that was a TOUGH one to make!), and have been giving badknees a full-time go. I'm out of my basement and have a storefront/studio in Bloomington, Indiana. Not only do I regularly create my own designs (usually trying spread positive messages), I also take on custom screen printing work. Most of my sales are online and through three different stores in Indiana. If you'd like more details, please check out the badknees website - badkneesTs.com. There might be something over there that isn't yet on Faire. And definitely follow on Instagram, where we are famous. Read their story
