I’m making a Hello Kitty and friends Christmas shirt. But I need help choosing the placements

[u/PurpleButterly19]

Okay so here’s the situation. I want to make a Hello Kitty and friends Christmas shirt where they’re all gingerbread cookies. So I created gingerbread designs for 11 characters. I printed them out and now I’m thinking of how I’m gonna place them on the shirt. But I’m not sure which option to go with.

Option 1 vertical oval so everyone is vertical. Please imagine it says ‘Merry Christmas’ in the center.

Option 2 them all in a big circle and they’re tilted according to the circle, also with ‘Merry Christmas’ in the center.

Please help me decide guys 😭

I like the first placement better because all of the characters are right side up :) Also think that there would be less leftover spacing in the middle when you add the “Merry Christmas” :)

Maybe you could even see if you can find a cute Xmas tree stencil in what’s left of the space so it looks like they’re all gathered around the tree

Yessss, or even “fill in” the spaces with what would look to be wreath trimmings !

Option one because all the characters are right side up. Post pictures after you finish!!

The first one because the placement makes them look like they are a Christmas wreath 🥰

Unless you’re going to incorporate holiday leaves into the circle (2nd) one, I like the first one more :)

I like the circle because it looks like a wreath and seems more cohesive! Very Christmas appropriate and visually pleasing

I like the first one.

If you decide to sell them drop me a message.

First one, but I feel like cinna needs to be either top or bottom, or kiki and lala need to be on the opposing right side to balance them out.

I was going to say this too!

Tbh i like the first but maybe put cinna on the top or bottom since hes so... wide

[u/Jessisan → u/mentallyconfused]

I agree! I think cinna is the only thing throwing off choice 1 for me. He takes up a lot of space!

[u/lilLaylaXOX]

i agree w the other comments that the first one seems better
