Angie, You are so amazing and inspiring! I'm just recovering from a major illness and you are inspiring me to push ahead cause I want to try ALL of them! Thank you! God bless you too!
my son works at the Dollar and a Quarter Tree.. that's what I call it now...lol. I need to go and get some more stuff now that I have time to fool around and try things. Thanks for the ideas
I used several of those white towels from the Auto section for christmas gifts. Made them into a car towel for relatives. They are so soft, I love them
Angie, your “experimentation” episodes are always intriguing and some of my very favourites! I’m a huge Dollar Tree blank fan and I love how you save me so much trial and error! Oh and with the tea towels I had the same pressing issue with it flattening the area… I found using a nice, sticky lint roller for a few minutes “fluffed” everything back up nicely!
I love your videos. They are so thorough, regardless of what you are talking about in the video. You are my "goto". Thank you Angie. I sincerely appreciate everything you do!
I did a bunch of ribbon. I made binky clips and mitten clips with them for my new great nephew! The socks. Tall socks I pit on a messed up tumbler and put through tumbler press!
Thank you so much, my microfiber car towels are so much better now, had pressing lines and I was pressing at 400 for 60 sec too long. Love baby blanket and scarfs too. Ripping the paper makes huge difference. You rock it girl.
I love when you experiment! I am loving the baby blanket too. Such a cute idea and a great gift, but then again, they are all great gifts! Can't wait to look around my DT for some nice blanks. Hugs, Brenda
Such great ideas!! I may have to visit many dollar trees because my "go-to" store is always busy and never has any of the things I see in videos. Thanks for the ideas! I loved them all 💜
I love all of these items!! I have done quite a few of them. I loved the mermaid tail sequin pencil holder.I made those for my nieces when school started and they loved them with their names on them. The tails came out fine on mine pressed at 400 for 60 seconds. Great video, thank you very much!! 💗💙💛💜💗💙💛💜💗💙💛💜
I had tried the socks from the Dollar Tree before seeing this video and they came out amazingly well! I grabbed all I could at the time I was there and will do something probably for graduation or other upcoming holiday or special occasion. Wish I could post a pic of the 🧦.. Now I'm encouraged to try the other items, esp the items that are darker in color.
Oh what great ideas! You are always so amazing in your videos with your experiments! I love them all but my favorites are the baby blanket and the microfibre cloth--definitely making that one for fathers day. Thanks again for these great videos!
The items you found were amazing. I have all but given up on Dollar Tree suggestions as my local ones never seem to stock what others find. Its sad since one of their biggest DC's is half a mile away from me. We have many local stores. I will stop again and see if the blankets are a local item for me. Reading the tags is a great tip.
Hard to pick a favorite, but I’d have to say probably the baby blanket and dish towel, as I would most likely be making these as gifts. Absolutely excellent video. I’ve been sublimating for a few months - and learning as I go - but haven’t been much on textiles yet, so having a process (with the lint roller especially) and a baseline is fantastic! Thank you so much!
Oh my goodness, I was literally just at the dollar tree 2 days ago and picked up some of these items with intent to try and sublimate on them. I'm so glad I found this video they look great 😁
Oh my goodness that was so great! I love getting things from the Dollar tree because I'm on a budget and a tightwad. I'm going to try them and I really hope that they come out as good as yours. One of my favorite ones is the pillow and the kitchen tails because I did try that infusible ink on some of the kitchen towels before and it did not work but I'm going to try it again and I love the fact that you give us the temperatures that you use because that is extremely helpful. I love your show
This is a great video!! I’m just about to set up my sublimation printer and since it is inkjet, I’m pretty sure you can’t let it sit for weeks inbetween printing or the print heads clog so this was an awesome video to inexpensively print “something” so my printer doesn’t get messed up! Thank you!
Awesome video, still learning how!! Can you possibly do a video showing how to do sublimation on a ball cap, every step please. I have the switch out press and can not figure how to press. Thanks!! My favorite was the towels!!!
Angie, Thank you so very much for this video. It's difficult to have a favorite, everything turned out great. I am loving the baby blanket though. I am fairly new to Sublimation and have learned so much from you. I love to experiment on anything that is Polyester or Poly/cotton blend. When I'm shopping, I find myself checking to see what the Polyester count is. I want to Sublimate on everything...lol. Thank you again for another informative tutorial.
Angie, I love your videos….I have learned so much from you! One thing I need to know….how do I adjust the pressure on my heat press? There is a knob on top but there are no markings on it so I don’t know how to determine light to heavy pressure. Thanks for your help!
I love it, I like the scarf and the baby blanket as well. There are very few Dollar Trees in Canada, but there are two close by. I normally go to Dollarama. Thanks, I will go there on my next trip. Can I sublimate on those glass containers with the lids? I have several. The tall ones for Spaghetti and the shorter wider ones for sugar, rice or pasta. I guess those would have to go into the sublimation oven as they would be too big for the mug or tumbler presses.
THANKS FOR DOIN THIS VIDEO, IM NOT VERY SAVVY & IT WAS EZ FOR ME TO UNDERSTAND... IMA TRY THEM ALL & THE SOCKS ARE MY FAVORITE... BOUT TO FOLLOW U ALSO.... TAKE CARE
I will have to try the ribbon for a wedding. I tried the socks but I placed the whole sock under and it stuck. Now I will try again with the heel off the press. I will try the mermaid tails for my granddaughters. Loved them all
Love your videos! Soooo informative! I do a lot of woodworking and sandblast etching for craft shows and such want to add sublimation items to my stock. I've seen some of your videos about converting Epson printers to sublimation. Which printer is your goto for this? Looking to start collecting the needed items for this next adventure
Angie I always gleam such great crafting tips from your tutorials!! I am still crafting in "the dark ages" in that I do not have a heat press- I still use a household iron and I have Cricut Infusible Ink pens but have never used them. Could you do a tutorial like you did in this one using Infusible Ink pens and a household iron? Thanks.
Hi Angie. I just came across your channel and I’m living all your sublimation video. I am researching things before I jump into it. I wanted to know if the materials, tshirts, etc. should be washed first before putting the design on it? Thanks! 😊
Loved the baby blanket! My question is, if you sublimate on a little darker colors, like the kitchen towel, baby blanket, and scarf, will those colors fade? I see they don't come up as bright had the items been white, but they still looked pretty reasonable.
You are not seeing anything that is faded. Sublimation ink is translucent so the grey of the towel is showing through the sublimation. The permanency of the sublimation method is the same on any color it just appears differently.
Hi Angie, love your channel. Thank you for sharing these items. Your colors are popping. I have the ET 4700, use hiippo sublimation ink and A sub paper. I have not done the ICC profile for better coloring ( I watched your video on that) can you do a video on printer preference presets for better coloring apart from using photoshop for ICC Profiles. I’ve been struggling with trying to get better coloring when sublimating.
LOVE this video!! Do you think the other side of the sequins on the mermaid tail could also be sublimated in…so there is a something different on each side of the sequins when they are flipped? 🤷♀️
You will not be able to do hard surface items from there as those need a poly coating on them. I picked items that were may from polyester for my examples.
Thank you so much ! Could you do the same thing with CRICUT INFUSIBLE INK ? And do i need to use butcher paper I live in Canada and it's sold in big rolls and is quite expensive ? Thank you for your time.😀
Yes. You can do the exact same thing with infusible ink as it works the same way. Butcher paper is good. You can use copy paper. White kraft paper. Sublimation protective paper. Lots of options!
Hi Angie I love your videos that's why I'm coming to you with my question. I did sublimation on white 3mm MDF thin sign.On 195 C, 65 seconds , high pressure. The board is slightly banded but I had to use high pressure, medium pressure isn't good enough. If the sublimating machine is uneven how to make it even? Thanks
That will be tough since the top is not smooth. You can try adding a rubber sheet over the top of your sublimation print. That can help distribute the heat.

Angie...It was awesome. I still haven't used my sublimation printer that I got in September because of health and intimidation of trying to learn Inkscape. I noticed that you used the heat pad with the heat press. Is this necessary?
The pad is only necessary to avoid press marks or lift things up that are odd. And you can just print with any application and see if you like the colors. Please don't think you need to use inkscape or any other program!
So jealous of you who have good dollar tree's. Here in CA, I have never seen the hats, baby blankets, only a few socks, basically nothing I can sublimate too
Great information. Love all these ideas. I don’t have a sublimation printer, can infusible ink work just as well? Or do you need to do something different?
I love your videos I’m a big dollar tree shopper I just got a new printer I converted my eco tank printer to a sublimation printer where do get the design you use I’m so new
I do lot of doormats and I don’t put lot pressure on it, the microfiber car towels do I use pressure or just lay it on let the weight of the press sub it? Thanks
Thank you so much! New sublimation crafter here and I was trying to figure out how to know what blanks I could use and you answered all my questions!
Glad it was helpful!
THANK YOU.... So much information to make your cricut pay for itself.
Glad it was helpful!
They all look good. I'm going to try kitchen towels. 😊
Kitchen towels are a great project for sublimation!
Can't wait to try the socks, scarf, and white towels.
I want to try the tea towels and the car cloths!! Thank you so much!!!
I loved how it came out on the sequins! I think I will be trying that one.
What a great video. I'll have to stop in the Dollar Tree now. Thanks so much.
The little bandana bibs turn out super cute also
I have made those before but they didn't have any this time!
@@AngieHolden our store always seems to have the bibs but not the blankets
BOO!
Angie, You are so amazing and inspiring! I'm just recovering from a major illness and you are inspiring me to push ahead cause I want to try ALL of them! Thank you! God bless you too!
So happy you enjoyed it!

I love your videos. I know that when I watch one of your videos, I'm getting really good and thorough information
Happy to help!
Love me some 🦩. Baby blanket is awesome.
I love that flamingo file so much!
I love them all. I will be doing the blanket and socks
Love the flamingos! Learned a lot today....thank you!
this was fun. I saw this video and headed to dollar tree. You are awesome. thanks for the tips and tricks
Thank you for sharing all your clever ideas - I love that you share! Keep up the great work
I used several of those white towels from the Auto section for christmas gifts. Made them into a car towel for relatives. They are so soft, I love them
Love it all. The ribbon is my fave. Customized ribbon should be a thing.
TOTALLY!
Love your channel. Always learn something watching you. I would have to say the scarf is my favorite!
Good choice!
Thank you, I love this. I always learn so much from watching your tutorials.
I'm so glad!
I love your videos. I always learn so much!
Thank you so much I loved the way you did the blanket so I think it is my favorite

Everything was awesome but The pencil bag was my favorite! I want to try them all!
That was a REALLY good find!
Loved the ribbon!!!
Thank you!
I did a bunch of ribbon. I made binky clips and mitten clips with them for my new great nephew! The socks. Tall socks I pit on a messed up tumbler and put through tumbler press!
Loved all of them.
Iam a new be, and iam going to start with all this stuff. Thank you for the ideas.
You are so welcome!
Thank you for trying so many different cute things!! This is so exciting!!
Thank you so much, my microfiber car towels are so much better now, had pressing lines and I was pressing at 400 for 60 sec too long. Love baby blanket and scarfs too. Ripping the paper makes huge difference. You rock it girl.
How great to learn these things!!!
Yay- thanks for doing all these experiments for us. I will definitely try it out. The mermaid tail is my favorite. ♥️
Heading to my dollar tree as soon as my headache goes away! Going to see what I can find. Love the baby blanket!
Me too! Good luck!
I love when you experiment! I am loving the baby blanket too. Such a cute idea and a great gift, but then again, they are all great gifts! Can't wait to look around my DT for some nice blanks. Hugs, Brenda
I definitely want to try the Mermaid tail pouch.. it is so cute
WOW, I will be checking out my local Dollar Tree store.
This is awesome Angie! Thanks so much 👏
You are so welcome!
Can’t wait to try your ideas

Hmmmm. I wonder why my tail looked like that then!
Angie what an awesome tutorial I'm learning sublimation trying to do a pillow with multiple sections.
I have seen those pillows but haven't tried one yet!
I love sublimation. ❤️

My sublimation Facebook group is listed in the description below the video. Join and share your projects there!
I liked the socks!
I like the baby blanket you could do so many things to personal it.
YES!

Angie awesome video thank you never thought about using dollar tree items. I am going to try the infusible ink on the blanket and ribbon
I have used Infusible Ink on the blankets and loved it!
Oh my goodness, I was literally just at the dollar tree 2 days ago and picked up some of these items with intent to try and sublimate on them. I'm so glad I found this video they look great 😁

@@AngieHolden Where did you get your pressing pillow I love that it is not Teflon!
I have it linked in the description below the video I think. If I didn't link the one you are talking about, let me know and I will dig that out!

It is just by feel. Adjust until it feels light or medium or heavy.
Hi Angie ur videos are very help ful for as a bigner. Pls give an idea about cotton clothes printing.

You can do it!
Thank you so much. I can’t wait to try these. If I am using a cricut easy press what temp and time do you think I should start with.
The same as stated in the video. Seriously I barely pressed down with my heat press. An EasyPress should work fine.
Hi Angie, love your tutorials. Please could you do a sublimation/infusible ink on Slate items thank you from UK
I have that on my list! It is a long list though!
Going to hit up my DT. Haven't been there 9n a while
I love the baby blanket I'm gonna make some I have new baby's in the family
Those are my favorite gift!
Brill, I didn’t know you could sublimate on coloured items. I am from UK so hope our £ shop as similar items . Thanks
I think you can use the same shopping methods and go looking for things that say polyester!
The baby blanket. I don't have a sublimation printer. If I bought the sublimation paint could I do this?I love your prints.
You could use sublimation paint, Infusible Ink, sublimation markers, etc.
Love your videos! Soooo informative! I do a lot of woodworking and sandblast etching for craft shows and such want to add sublimation items to my stock. I've seen some of your videos about converting Epson printers to sublimation. Which printer is your goto for this? Looking to start collecting the needed items for this next adventure

I am printing out of Photoshop and not Cricut Design Space. Here is my video on my tumbler press: ruclips.net/video/tQCrYfJttws/видео.html
LOVE this video!! Do you think the other side of the sequins on the mermaid tail could also be sublimated in…so there is a something different on each side of the sequins when they are flipped? 🤷♀️
I think it would mess up your first side but heck - for $1 you could experiment and see!
👍
Can you do one with other Dollar Tree items, like jars, candle holders, mugs etc...I am very curious if I can get blanks from there.
You will not be able to do hard surface items from there as those need a poly coating on them. I picked items that were may from polyester for my examples.

That will be tough since the top is not smooth. You can try adding a rubber sheet over the top of your sublimation print. That can help distribute the heat.
