Great demo. I'm a beginner too. I don't know if you could try cardboard inside the wine bags to eliminate the seams. Everything I've done, so far, I've always taped the print to the blank too. You should try a couple of clocks and windspinners (definitely wear gloves) I let both of those cool completely even before attaching my prints. The clocks get extremely hot even during the pre-press. Idk if you saw the one I did with the yorkie or not. It came out so pretty 😍
Prepressing removes moisture from the blank since water is an enemy to sublimation. You should not use a Teflon sheet to cover during sublimation since that holds in moisture. It looks like your non-Cricut baking paper is coated so you shouldn’t use this either. You shouldn’t use brown paper either. Some people use a pressing pillow in the middle with the butcher paper.
I have been sublimating for some time, and I still learning. And yes I do mistakes too.
That's great to hear you are still learning. I love that there is just more and more to learn! 😁

I'm looking forward to more of these videos 😀
I so want to try sublimation but bit scared. This video was super helpful though and good to see the trial and error process 😊
Thank you. Those are some great ideas, thank you for the tips too! I like the idea of wind spinners, they sound challenging. 😦
Sublimation is so much fun but it can be very frustrating sometimes
Yes, exactly that! It's great fun to test out different blanks 😁

Thank you for the tips! There are lots of things to learn but I am enjoying the process and seeing my results improve over time :)
