I absolutely love your tutorials!! You do such a good job explaining everything in a way that I can understand and you don't try to get all technical and fancy. Thank you so much!!!!
Okay, I love the whipped cream topping. If you can do whatever it is that you did and just do it on top of the lid for the cup and drill a hole for the straw, AWESOME! COOL TUTORIAL!
Oooh you explained this so well and now I feel like I could tackle this and totally up my game on my cups! I love your videos!! Thank you :)
What is this sorcery!! I have never seen anyone do waterslides this way!!! This is GREAT!!!!!
This is the first time I've seen the image being mirrored. I did not know you could do it this way. This seems like such a game changer! Thanks
Glad I could help!
I agree!!! I can't wait to try this way.
This has been the easiest tutorial I’ve seen. I’m just started out with water slides, so thank you!!
Just got my paper and ready to tackle after wastching your video. Thank you, nicely done.
The best video that I saw!! Thanks!! ❤
You’re so welcome!💜
This was a very informative video! Thank you so much!
DId you know that your mic goes in and out when you move back and forth? I still love the videos😁
Yes it’s crazy some videos it does fine and others it’s crap lol I’m going to order a new one today. Thank u !!💜
Thank goodness it's not my hearing
Wow!! That was simple!! Thanks sunshine 🌞
How do you make white ones out of clear waterslides?
That's smart to mirror the image. I've never seen anyone teach it that way.
Thanks !!
@Creations NProgress, I never did either! Great way to teach it!
@@beverlymackenzie6058 thanks !!
Alot of people use the mirror image
Not sure if they have them where you are, but that silicone "brush" or whatever you call it, I find those at the local dollar store, in the makeup tools.
Very helpful! Thank u much❤!!!!
You're so welcome!
Is there another way you edit your image, if you don't have a cricut to use the cricut design space? I don't have a cricut
Maybe try using Microsoft word!
I have the same problem. No cricut. How did it work using WORD?
Omg. I like that you put it mirrored
Thank u💜
This was so understanding.. thank you so much..
You’re welcome 💜
Love your tutorial ! 💖 thanks ! 👍🏼
What holds the waterslide down? There's a coat of clear paint where it touches the cup, not adhesive. The adhesive is on the BACK of waterslides.
I believe once the water slide is wet, it’s going to be sticky on both sides. If you take a piece of scrap water slide paper and get it wet like you’re going to use it, you can feel that either side will stick to a tumbler 😊
Please please please when you get your new mic will you do this one again...so much wonderful info
I love that trick or treat picture. Where did u find that? Link please. And mirroring the waterslide OMG game changer for me. I love you ❤lol
I got it from Etsy but I can’t find the image anymore all I can find is T-shirts’ with the image on it. You may be able to google it. But I’m glad you liked the video lol !!💜
Wait we don’t need to sand between layers of resin? I thought you always sand between layers?
The white glittery tumbler comes like that or did you do it?
Can you put the water slide on while it is just sanded epoxy? Or does it need to be on clean epoxy? I hope this makes since.
It needs to be clean epoxy
Can i store waterslide decals or do they have to be used straight away once theyve been sealed with spray ?? X
I’ve noticed the longer the sealant is on, the harder it is to get off the backing
why do you mirror the image? Does it depend on the paper you use? thanks for sharing.
It’s just a personal preference thing. I do it with my clear water slide paper. You can’t do it with white water slide paper though
Hi, just curious, do you use the A3 or the A4 size waterslide paper and what's the difference?
So far I like your video, but the sound makes it very hard to follow what you’re saying. Especially since I don’t hear well. I’m hoping the rest of the video balances out. I am a newbie to all this and really excited to learn all this new technology, tips and hacks! Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge!!
This video was taken a long time ago, my videos are better now😊
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I am having a little trouble with some of my water slides lifting when I put on the epoxy. I try to lay them down but with the epoxy under them they are lifting. It seems to be just some edges. But any ideas in how to keep it from happening? Should I maybe spray a little bit of sealer on it next time?
Yes definitely try sealing it before epoxy!
Hi. I watch you a lot. You explain so well. I have 1 question. When you did this water slide, you said you did 2 coats of the glitter epoxy beforehand. Then after the water slide, you don’t have to epoxy again? If you don’t, once it gets wet from hand washing, it won’t come off at any time? Thank you in advance
Hi!! Yes you will need to epoxy after the water slide is on
Omy gaw... That is awesome! This is truly the best tutorial on the easiest way to do this! Thanks!
I have a couple of questions.... Does this "waterslide" only work for tumblers such as the one you used? I've seen it done on glassware but not as easy as you showed.
Is this able to be used with plastic sports water bottles or plastic tumblers??
Also, what would you say is the durability of a waterslide decal on any given surface like tumbler or sports water bottle if it can be done on the latter...?? Thanks in advance☺️
Hi!! So these water slides are not permanent unless you epoxy over them. So you can’t put them on plastic since you can’t epoxy plastic💜
Thanks for the video!!
You’re welcome !!💜
Do you sand the epoxy before applying the water slide?
Yes
Do you need a special ink also is there away to do it other then cricket
Just inkjet ink. You don’t have to print from cricut
What else can I use instead of epoxy? I don’t have anything to spin the tumbler and I’m not sure if that matters or if I can use epoxy and not have it drip some other way
You need a turner unless you do sublimation
@@CourtneysCustoms thanks! One last question - I am still experiencing bleeding after spraying with the acrylic. Any recommendations?
Can you put a water slide over a cup that has been sanded as long as it’s smooth? Or does the cup need to be glossy?
As long as it’s smooth!!
thank you very much! awesome tutorial! I did subscribe to your channel!
I really appreciate it !!
Can't you make your own words on the computer and then just print it on the paper
This makes me want to run and try it. Do you need to prep any cup with anything before adding the waterslide? For example you did glitter in the cup but if I’m just adding to a tumbler with out glitter?
It’s so fun lol. And no just make sure your tumbler is smooth so if it’s just spray painted that’s fine, but if you have a glittered tumbler just make sure it’s epoxied until smooth before adding the decal
Got it, thank you so much for the fast reply! Would keep you posted! Your tutorial is amazing! Your the BEST!!
Very good. I am about to start my first project and you answered the questions I had very well. One other question...am I able to apply a name decal on top of a full coverage floral water slide decal?
Yes you absolutely can. Just make sure u do a coat of epoxy first so you don’t ruin the water slide
@@CourtneysCustoms I sort of figured that out but not about the epoxy. Is it spray or two things you have to mix together?
So if you mirror the slide, you can put it in the water, put on tumbler like you do if you're doing a t-shirt and just slide the back off?
That’s right
@@CourtneysCustoms I have been using Rust-Oleum sealer and my waterslide still rips big time. I'm going to try it your way, hopefully I can do it better the way you did. I'm new at this and doing a cup for my husband's boss.
can you show how to epoxy?
Love. Can you use gloss spray to seal a tumbler after placing the waterslide on the tumbler? I don't want to use epoxy?
Yes you can. I spray mines after
Do you sand the cup around the waterslide afterwards before you apply the final layer of epoxy?
with fine glitter like this one i usually only sand after the first layer of epoxy before i put a decal on
Do you need to mirror clear and white paper slides both?
Only clear. If you do this method on white water slide paper it’ll just come out all white
@@CourtneysCustoms thank you
Hey, love your video, and I subscribed. I do have a question. What size Makerflo tumbler are you using? I purchased a case of the regular 20 oz.
Thanks so much !! In this video I used the regular 20oz from Makerflo. They’re my favorite !!
How you stop the image from rubbing off when you're wiping out the excess water? I did everything you did.
Just make sure it’s sealed really well before you put it in water
Do you have to epoxy the tumbler after finishing or is there any other option than can work?
You can use a product called Crystalac
When you cut out your image and put on a white mug, would you then see the outlined edges after it is baked?
This isn’t a sublimation, it’s epoxy. But, after epoxy you can’t see the lines😊
What if I wanted to put a clear waterslide on a plain tumbler? Can that be done?
Without glitter? Or completely plain like directly on stainless steel?
Great video with useful info. When you cut out the image, you said that you could use the rest of the water slide paper for another decal. How do you get your printer to print a partial sheet of water slide paper?
Thank you !! As long as the image will fit onto the size of paper you have left, my printer just recognizes where the paper is and prints it there
@@CourtneysCustoms I never tried it, but will definitely do so. Thank you.
@@deborahbehrens625 you’re so welcome !!
What printer are you using ?
do you have to use a certain type of ink for the printer?
Inkjet or laser depending on what printer you have
Where do you get your ink for your printer. Thank You. Love your video’s
Walmart or amazon. And thank you 💜
@@CourtneysCustoms Thank you so much..
Hi. Just subscribed to your channel! I'm new at this. Besides epoxy, is there anything else you'd recommend sealing the tumbler with after I apply the waterslide?
Hi !! Thanks for subscribing😊 you can use a product called Crystalac in place of any epoxy.
Can I sumerge mug with waterslide decal?
If you epoxy over it, it will be fine
@@CourtneysCustoms What type of Epoxy. Can I seal it again with acrylic spray?
How did you due your cup from the beginning I am new at this
Paint the cup white and dry. Then apply mod podge and sprinkle white glitter over entire cup. Wait to dry about 10 minutes then spray with rustoleum clear sealant and dry. Then add a coat of epoxy
@@CourtneysCustoms I have trouble mixing and applying the epoxy any tips
@@janbaker9418 what kinds of problems are u having ?? I have a video about epoxy😊
That video would be great can’t explain to good
@@janbaker9418 ruclips.net/video/nIpqSX45LRM/видео.html
If I use a white waterslide douse the bleed has to be on or off
Off
@@CourtneysCustoms thank you
how much epoxy did you apply on the tumbler, do i really need to put something over a rough tumbler like the glitter background?
I honestly couldn’t tell you exactly how much I used, I work on roughly 10 tumblers at a time so I mix up quite a bit for all of them lol. Yes you need to epoxy until smooth before adding decals😊
okay thanks. i will try to look for it in my country. thanks. any alternative?
How long after applying the waterside do you need to wait to epoxy???
I wait about an hour
I just started glittering tumblers and apply vinyl. I want to start applying water slide to tumblers instead.
When purchasing a file as a svg, like from Etsy, do you just size and send to print?
Yes exactly 😊
@@CourtneysCustoms I’m going to jump in and order the water slide paper! Can’t wait to try this!!
I’ve watched other tutorials but yours made me decide to try. THANK YOU! ☺️
@@annie3248 you’re very welcome !!
So you can connect your circuit design space to your inkjet printer?
Yes if your printer is wifi compatible
@@CourtneysCustoms thank you
Hello! 😃 I'm a new subscriber to your channel and also new to tumblers...so I watched your hocus pocus video and made a gold and white ombre tumbler, I have clear water slide paper but I went ahead and sealed it a couple of times and then sprayed it with white paint, I shouldn't have done that right? 🤔 Since the paper is clear it would've shown up on the white and gold tumbler without me having sprayed the white spray paint? So basically my question is do I have to reprint and start over 🤦♀️
If the waterslide is just going over the white part no u don’t have to paint it white. Only paint it white if it’s going over a dark cup. I would go ahead and print out another one , just seal it and apply it !! Hope that helps💜
@@CourtneysCustoms Will do thank you so much for your response! Love your videos!
@@mrsflores840 thanks so much💜
Do you put epoxy over the water slide ?
Yes I do!
Hi Courtney!
Can any image be used as a waterslide image?
Yep!! As long as it’s printed on water Slide Paper
Does a water slide have to be sealed with epoxy ?
Yes
Do we have to coat after being placed in cup?
Yes
I tried water slide i dont know if it’s the actual water slide or my printer i dont know but even when I seal it the ink cracks and even slides down the mug 😣
From all the videos I seen if you don’t use an epson printer it will not work
What printer do you use or recommend
I love anything Epson. The printer I’m using is so old I don’t even think it’s made anymore lol at least I can’t find it, but it’s an Epson expression home 330
I did a water slide following your directions and after I applied the epoxy the image rolled up around the edges. Help!
What waterslide paper are you using
@@CourtneysCustoms I got it from Amazon printers jack.
@@CourtneysCustoms could I use Mod Podge over the decal?
What brand of printer do you use
Epson
what of cricut do you have
Cricut explore air 2
@@CourtneysCustoms ok ty
@@CourtneysCustoms I got the cricut joy I want to get me big one but I know which one the best
Why does mine crack when I slide it off
You may have not sealed it good enough
@@CourtneysCustoms aw man okay, maybe I should spray it 3x then ?
Hi Courtney, thanks for your video - that was great! After you apply the decal on, do you still see the outline of the edges that were cut from the scissors, or is there a way of making it look seamless like a sublimation print on a coffee mug? Thanks so much!
You’re so welcome !! And the edges aren’t seen after epoxy😊
@@CourtneysCustoms Good Morning Courtney ~ I forgot to ask what epoxy would you recommend to use? Thanks
@@CourtneysCustoms Hi Courtney, would a coat of Mod Podge also work as an epoxy substitute?
@@duaneleewo9068 good morning !! I use KS Resin and absolutely love it !! You can check out there website here bit.ly/3mfiiLD
And no mod podge unfortunately cannot be used as a substitute
@@CourtneysCustoms Thanks Courtney for answering back, ill look at the website now - Have a great week ahead!
Courtney, I love your videos, but what is going on with you sound?😔
Keep up the great work!
(But let's fix the sound 😉)
Hi!! This is a super old video, before I upgraded to better filming equipment 😊
Great tutorial! Only bad thing is your volume cuts in and out making it hard to hear. I still learned and loved how you explained everything. Thank you....
I’ve upgraded equipment since then lol. Thank you so much !!
How long do you wait after spray sealing your waterslide image before using it?
Just until it’s dry. About 10 minutes
What printer are u using??
sound keeps going in and out
This is a really old video. I’ve upgraded since then😊
The sound keeps fading in and out so I'm going back to turn up bc I missed something
Hi!! Sorry about that. This is a super old video, my newer videos are much better since I’ve upgraded my equipment
@@CourtneysCustoms it's OK. But can you explain if the white glitter tumblers come like that or do you do it
How would i apply it as a waterslide decal with sublimation ink and printer?
You don’t use sublimation ink for water slides. It has to be inkjet or laser
@@CourtneysCustoms I have a sub waterslide paper. Wouldn’t that work?
@@katirainn.6599 asub is sublimation paper isn’t it?
@@CourtneysCustoms www.amazon.com/SUB-Waterslide-Printers-Transfer-Tumbler/dp/B089QHS676/ref=mp_s_a_1_2_sspa?dchild=1&keywords=a+sub+waterslide+decal+paper&qid=1628537183&sprefix=a+sub+wa&sr=8-2-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEyQVI5M1hFOFRKNFVQJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwNjc0MzIzUlVXREozOTdMNjhKJmVuY3J5cHRlZEFkSWQ9QTAwOTEyMzAyQ1NPRktQWVBNR1JYJndpZGdldE5hbWU9c3BfcGhvbmVfc2VhcmNoX2F0ZiZhY3Rpb249Y2xpY2tSZWRpcmVjdCZkb05vdExvZ0NsaWNrPXRydWU= this is what I ordered.
very frustrating with the poor sound quality. I wish I could hear everything. I gave up after 5 mins.
I’ve gotten much better equipment since this video.
The audio is awful, it cuts in and out and there are parts where you are not able to heard.
Also this video is extremely digitized, we can’t see any of the details on the cups you are showing us,...you need to turn the quality up on whatever camera you are recording on.
I’ve upgraded equipment since this video. Thanks.
@@CourtneysCustoms awesome, thank you! If there is any way you could do this video again when you have more time that would be awesome. From what I can hear it sounds like you are giving good information but I just can’t hear/see everything well enough to do what you’re doing.
The mic going in and out is making me bananas...i may have to shut off the video
This was before I upgraded equipment. My videos are much better now
Lady!!! Turn your friggin' camera on its side!!
This is a really old friggin’ video. Videos are better these days.
So hard to hear you. Ugh.
This was before I upgraded equipment. I made a new one with better equipment a couple weeks ago😊
Poor sounding
I’ve upgraded equipment since then.
Your audio is terrible
This is an old video. It’s much better now.
Do you heat your tumbler in the oven?
Not for epoxy tumblers, that’s only for sublimation
Wait we don’t need to sand between layers of resin? I thought you always sand between layers?
I only sand if it’s still rough
