Thank you soo much for the paper recommendation. I was really struggling to get a solid black on a tumbler and the paper you recommended has made all the difference.
You solved my problem that no one else. Could no one ever told me that? I had to cut the white around the Photo to stop getting the line. I appreciate your video very much thank you so much.😊
Love how you use the butcher paper... So many videos show TAPING it to the tumbler as well... Your way is smart since you have to rotate it anyways!!! Love it!
Great video you're a good teacher!!! Laugh with you when you were trying to say butcher paper lol Try my first tumbler and I made a big miss it was 20oz I know that happened was setting the press and put the tumbler in to set it for the pressure and did not realize I had it turn when to my computer to finish something oh boy bad bad mistake learned my lesson for sure was so mad at myself it was a burn a bit in one side now I am a little bit afraid to try again!!! But I will when I get my conference back!!!I Have done a lot of mugs so don't know why I did what I did maybe old age lol I am still learning about Sublimation having been doing it that long still a newbie! Thank you got this video Subscribed to your Channel... Liz 😊🇨🇦
Thank you very much, Bettie! I made a similar mistake once when I was using my heat press to sublimate something. I walked out of the room and about 15 minutes later came back and realized what happened. My sublimation image went through to my press's pad and ruined it. I now have an auto open press:)
Sooooo gorgeous! I’m going to get back into sublimation and making tumblers. I have all the tools but haven’t made anything in over a year. I’m ready to get back into it. Thnx for the inspiration. ☺️
Hello, im just wonder what are the measurements for the image? What program did you use to print?. Im currently struggling to get a full covered cup like this. I doing 8.2x9.4 and it still falls short where it will not cover the entire cup. Thank you for your time.
The dimensions vary based on the brand of tumbler. I often have to go up to 9.5 inches for some tumblers. 8.2 has alway been tall enough for me, but again, it depends on the tumbler brand. I print from Inkscape.
Thank you! The get together was last night and she loved the tumbler. We actually drove to the dinner and then all the way back home last night. About 7 1/2 hours total driving time:) Had to sleep in today😴
Good morning Ms. Marilyn. I been looking for one of your live on the settings for the brightness, contrast, saturation & density for sublimation. I really appreciate your help, thank you
I have the basic default settings on for those when printing for almost all of my sublimation items. I do change the paper setting to premium presentation matte and I change the print quality to high. Other than those two things, I leave everything else alone.
Question do you seal these or is it good to go like this. I made one and it looks perfect but then after a few uses it seemed to get scratches.. it is just maybe the brand of cup?
It could be that. I'm not really sure. I have never sealed mine but I do hand wash them. My husband puts them in the dishwasher once in awhile on the top rack and so far so good. Out of all my tumblers, I do have one that the sublimation coating is chipping off at the bottom though.
@@MakingwithMarilyn om awesome.and thank you.. most of the scratches are on the bottom but there was some within my image as well over time.. thank you
A+ results )) Do you mind sharing the material and ink you used to print, it is the same as sublimation on polyester shorts with hippo ink???? Thank you!
Yes, it is the same as when you print to sublimate on poly. Paper Used in this Video amzn.to/41BSKyz Ink Used in this Video (bottle fits many Epson Ecotank printers) amzn.to/3xPY6IF Tumbler Used In this Video amzn.to/3KAqHsU
I use Inkscape and I resize the image in the program to the exact size I need. I made a spreadsheet for different types of tumblers so I know what size to make it. Then when I print the image I just cut off the excess and it wraps perfectly to the other side every time.
I have the same press and settings, each time you open the clamps there is a smoke that briefly comes off of the mug and a smell. Did you have the same experience, does it go away with use?
Part of the smell goes away fairly quickly. But with sublimation tumblers, you will continue to have a smell with any press. At least I still have a smell with all of my tumbler presses.
I'm a big fan of the Otter Box tumblers but they're not the same width at the top and bottom (tumbler tapers down), I'm ready to buy the same machine you have if you think that your technique will still work similiar on a differnet blank
Hi Marilyn, thank you for this video. I have issues with the bottom looking as nice as yours. I did notice you cut off some of the excess off the bottom. Maybe I need to try that.
Yes, I don't like to have a lot of excess at the bottom. It's easier for me to work with the tumbler and not have white splotches when I cut most of the excess off. I hope it helps you too and thank you for watching.
My daughter was giving a cup like this for her birthday. My sister in law gave it to her. My sister in law had someone make it. It looked really good. What can people change for cups like this and how much profit can be made per cup? Thanks for the info
That all really depends on your market. I live in a small town with a bit of a depressed market. However, your market may be better. You can also check on Etsy to see what people are selling them for. I get my tumblers for about $5 per tumbler when I find a good sale on Amazon. The expense of the paper and ink is very minimal.
@@MakingwithMarilyn her cups print was Pokémon and they use a font for her name that matched the animation. It looked really nice. My side business is sunglasses, but I’m always interested in other possibilities or just learning about them. I like seeing small businesses make money.
Yes, you should. You can get there!!! I messed up several tumblers before I got to where they were looking great! Mostly from not wrapping/taping well, and also having too much pressure.
What ink and paper are you using? Also, what time and temp are you using? My first several tumblers were big disappointments, but hopefully you will soon find the settings and pressure you like. When I started, I was using too much pressure and too much time/heat.
@@MakingwithMarilyn I am using the Brother sublimation SP1 printer (my eco tank clogged so many times I finally threw it away) I am using the Tumbler manufacture heat and time. This is so frustrating
@@ronniea.4830 I would try pressing one of the tumbler designs onto 100 percent polyester. If it looks good, then you can rule out the issue of it being your print.
@@MakingwithMarilyn thank you for taking the time to reply, I actually did that and yes it's not the print. I also pressed inti metal tiles and the results were the same like the tumblers, dull and somewhat grainy. 😭
Are you interested in this particular image, because it is quite a bit different than the typical sublimation image in that you have to piece together parts and pieces from a file, or are you talking about setting up an image for sublimation on tumblers in general?
I have had different brands be slightly different sizes, so I typically cut a piece of computer paper first in order to get the correct size. It will be somewhere around 8.15 inches tall by 9.4 inches wide, but you will want to dial in the exact measurements for your tumbler. Thanks for watching!!!
Yes, you use sublimation ink and sublimation paper. I converted an Epson EcoTank printer to a sublimation printer simply by putting sublimation ink into it instead of the ink that came with it. Some people use regular printer paper, but I find sublimation paper works better for me. Thank you for watching!
Thank you for this video. I do graphic design projects for fun and I was looking for a tutorial as I want to expand my business to hallloween and holiday tumblers . This was So helpful! Question when you create the designs do you use a color laser printer ? I don’t have one yet and am debating.
Oooo, so pretty! I tried my first Tumbler today after watching your video. It worked like a charm! Unfortunately, I can see tape lines where I taped it down around the rim. (not residue, faint lines) Does anyone in the comment section have a solution? New subscriber!
I’m so glad your first tumbler turned out pretty well. My first several were not 😌 The only thing I can think of is that possibly you had too much pressure. Was the pressure pretty tight? You need it firm enough to touch the tumbler and keep it in place but not super tight. Let me know if you find a solution.
@@MakingwithMarilyn thank you so much for your response! After spending the whole afternoon researching, I think it might be the cheap heat tape I'm using. Poo. Ordered some of the blue tape today..I hope that works🤞
I have found over time that 2 presses is enough. But both ways works great for me. The 2nd turn (3rd press) was simply to make sure good pressure has made it all over the tumbler. But again, for me, 2 presses is enough. Thank you for watching and asking about it.
Can you tell me what settings did you put on your printer to get vibrant? I’ve been struggling with the right settings because every setting I’ve done so far has made mine not bright but dull.
I just published a video today where I show how I print my images. What printer, sublimation ink, sublimation paper, and sublimation tumblers are you using? ruclips.net/video/32v_a17baWg/видео.html
I use 2 printers for sublimation - an Epson Ecotank 2760 and an Epson Ecotank 15000. I mostly use the 15000. I have Cosmos sublimation ink in the 2760 and Hiipoo sublimation ink in the 15000. I slightly prefer the Hiipoo ink.
I would like to do this myself and a several questions if you don't mind answering them would be great? What do you use to get your designs and is there a current software you have to have to do this on your computer? Do you know if you can convert a printer you already own to do sublimation? I would also like to know what you do to make your shirts? Is it sublimation or something else?
I get most of my designs from Creative Fabrica. I have an annual membership. You can use any design software and some people even print from programs like Microsoft word or Cricut Design Space (size limitations though). Personally, I would recommend a design software such as Inkscape. I use Inkscape to print my designs and it is free. To convert a printer you already have, you would have to take all of the ink out first, including that which is in your tubes, and you may have to flush it out, but I am not sure on that. There are videos on doing it, though. And not all printers are good for doing this. Epson Ecotanks are often used as sublimation printers. On shirts, I use sublimation, vinyl, the dtf/sublimation hack, rhinestones, etc. So, I have various methods that I use. Thanks so much for watching! And let me know if you have more questions.
Hi, do you leave the sublimation paper on the tumbler to cool down completely before removing it, I take mine off while it's still hot and sometimes the picture isn't always as vibrant, am I doing it wrong please 👍
I do not wait for the tumbler to cool. Factors that I have found affect vibrancy - what paper are you using, what print settings are you using, are you using too much pressure (that can cause problems too), are you undercooking or overcooking your tumblers? I find that brown and dark red tumblers are really finicky. I was overcooking them and found that less time resulted in a much better color for me. Also, are you using a press or a convection oven.
It is sublimation paper and the image was printed with sublimation ink. So, it infuses into the sublimation tumbler and looks great! Thanks for watching.
Hi Marilyn, your videos are Awesome I always look forward to them! Thank you for taking the time to do them. I have one request. Can you please make a video on the Comic Style Pop Art Girls design how you put it together if you can. Thank you.
@@MakingwithMarilyn Thank You for your quick response! It's a beautiful design and it seems a few layers were used. I want to try and make both my daughters a tumbler like that Thank You! 💝
I love how easy to understand you made this video , I am new and want to start sublimation can you share how you print the design on the paper before you sublimate to the tumbler?
I make my image (for most 20 oz skinny tumblers) 9.4 inches x 8.2 inches, then cut off any excess when I wrap it. You have to print in the mirror image. I use premium presentation matte and high quality printing. Then I use an epson ecotank that I put sublimation ink into instead of the regular ink and print it on sublimation paper. Thanks for watching!
It has to be a printer that has sublimation ink in it. There are true sublimation printers, but I used an Epson Ecotank that I added sublimation ink to instead of the ink that came with the printer.
I do not put anything on my tumblers. But if you wanted to, you could spray them with a clear protective coating that is made to not yellow over time. I think it might be UV resistant or something like that.
Would 45 and 45 work or would the 20 be needed as well? Thinking about getting this one because I keep getting ghosting with the oven even though it was fine before. 30oz just isn’t working in the oven for me.
I have searched high and low for this specific design and I can’t find it! Are you able to share a link to it?? Or could you share the design with me??
Yes, that is how I make mine. I have a small overlap on the sides. Some people but their two sides up against each other, but I prefer a small overlap.
You mentioned you have a subscription for the images to sublimated, but can any printer or ink be used? Or is it special paper? I'm new to this, so I was wondering. Other than that, I enjoyed your video! ❤
I'm so sorry I didn't explain all that very well. You need to use sublimation ink, but you can purchase a true sublimation printer or you can use an epson ecotank printer and put sublimation ink into it instead of the ink that comes with it. I have information in the video description as to my printer and then I linked the ink and paper in the video description. Thanks so much for watching!
My first several tumblers were not very good so if you are having issues, keep at it. It is so much fun and so pretty when you find the process that works for you.
You have the best technique of any channel I have watched on making tumblers! I’m so glad I found your channel.
Awwwe, thank you so so much! You just made my day🥰
You have made me cry! I tried your method today and my cups came out beautiful! No ghosting! I’m so happy because I failed on like 4 cups
YAY!!! When I started making tumblers, I ruined some also and felt very frustrated. I'm very happy that the video helped you out.
We all mess up.
Thank you soo much for the paper recommendation. I was really struggling to get a solid black on a tumbler and the paper you recommended has made all the difference.
I'm glad you found that it works well for you. I really do love it, too!
Another great video! Really had to laugh when you said “Is it doing anything? I don’t know but it makes me feel better.”
Ha ha, sometimes we just have to do things just because it feels right to us:) Thanks so much for watching!

I followed your instructions and it came out great!!! Thanks so very much!!!
I'm so happy for you!!! Thank you so much for watching and letting me know.

Good morning Ms. Marilyn. I been looking for one of your live on the settings for the brightness, contrast, saturation & density for sublimation. I really appreciate your help, thank you

There are videos on doing it, though. And not all printers are good for doing this. Epson Ecotanks are often used as sublimation printers. On shirts, I use sublimation, vinyl, the dtf/sublimation hack, rhinestones, etc. So, I have various methods that I use. Thanks so much for watching! And let me know if you have more questions.
Saludos, quedó hermoso. 🥰 ¿Tienes la plantilla base para ese tumbler?
Thank you. I got the design off of Creative Fabrica.
Fantastic results
Thank you so much!
You press at 385...I have only seen pressing at 350. Is it because presses are so different yet the same? Thanks for the detailed video
What sub paper do you use? Beautiful cup😊
Thank you! I used one of HTV Ront's sublimation papers. I almost always use this paper when I am printing on 8.5 x 11 paper. amzn.to/44yFuex
Hi, do you leave the sublimation paper on the tumbler to cool down completely before removing it, I take mine off while it's still hot and sometimes the picture isn't always as vibrant, am I doing it wrong please 👍
I do not wait for the tumbler to cool. Factors that I have found affect vibrancy - what paper are you using, what print settings are you using, are you using too much pressure (that can cause problems too), are you undercooking or overcooking your tumblers? I find that brown and dark red tumblers are really finicky. I was overcooking them and found that less time resulted in a much better color for me. Also, are you using a press or a convection oven.
Did you have to print it the picture
@@juliomainchannel215 yes, I printed it on sublimation paper with a sublimation printer.
Awesome work 🎉
Thank you!
Very nice job :)
What type of paper is that? Is it photo paper or Sticker paper?
It is sublimation paper and the image was printed with sublimation ink. So, it infuses into the sublimation tumbler and looks great! Thanks for watching.
gorgeous how did you do the pictures.thanks
I used this file to make it. www.creativefabrica.com/product/comic-style-pop-art-girls/ref/1340608/
I have 1 to do haven’t done any yet kinda nervous 😬
You can do it😘 Are you using a convection oven or a tumbler press?
@@MakingwithMarilyn I own a cricut mug press but I also have a heat press with attachments
Same here I'm nervous 😅 in doing mine
Did the paper over lap when you wrap it, couldn’t tell in the video
Yes, I barely overlap my paper on tumblers.
Beautiful tumbler what kind of paper did you use
I have several sublimation papers, but my "go to" paper is HTV Ront.
Hi Marilyn, your videos are Awesome I always look forward to them! Thank you for taking the time to do them. I have one request. Can you please make a video on the Comic Style Pop Art Girls design how you put it together if you can. Thank you.
Thank you Marta! Yes, I can do a video on using the design.
@@MakingwithMarilyn Thank You for your quick response! It's a beautiful design and it seems a few layers were used. I want to try and make both my daughters a tumbler like that Thank You! 💝
Very nice job, I do my tumblers pretty much as you do, and it seems to work great. thanks for showing the video.😊
Thanks Gerryann!
I am looking for about 30 white tumblers with the same image on them. Is that something you would take on as a job?
I'm sorry but I only sell actual goods (versus digital goods) locally.
I love how easy to understand you made this video , I am new and want to start sublimation can you share how you print the design on the paper before you sublimate to the tumbler?
I make my image (for most 20 oz skinny tumblers) 9.4 inches x 8.2 inches, then cut off any excess when I wrap it. You have to print in the mirror image. I use premium presentation matte and high quality printing. Then I use an epson ecotank that I put sublimation ink into instead of the regular ink and print it on sublimation paper. Thanks for watching!
Hello, what kind of ink did you use? Thanks
@@danyelloneal the printer I used for this has Hiipoo sublimation ink in it.
BEAUTIFUL! Thank you for the video. Which sublimation paper do you use?
I use a lot of different papers but I currently use HTV Ront paper the most. amzn.to/3z1xN2X
Beautiful work ❤ Which computer software do you recommend for sizing the design
I typically use Inkscape (a free design software) or Silhouette. Thank you so much for watching!
@@MakingwithMarilyn thank you
I have a quick question. Can you use any kind of printer?
It has to be a printer that has sublimation ink in it. There are true sublimation printers, but I used an Epson Ecotank that I added sublimation ink to instead of the ink that came with the printer.
Are they dishwasher safe after completion?
@@violetjames7534 I would recommend hand washing but my husband puts his in the top rack of the dishwasher.
@ thank you! Nice work!🔥
Does it need to be laminated or cleared over at all to be protected?
I do not put anything on my tumblers. But if you wanted to, you could spray them with a clear protective coating that is made to not yellow over time. I think it might be UV resistant or something like that.
Would 45 and 45 work or would the 20 be needed as well? Thinking about getting this one because I keep getting ghosting with the oven even though it was fine before. 30oz just isn’t working in the oven for me.
I wouldn’t doubt it if 45 and 45 would be enough. I will try it sometime. Thanks for watching!
The tumbler is gorgeous!
I recently started making tumbler designs as well, is there any way to contact about a collaboration/sponsorship?
Yes, you can check the "about me" part of my channel, which has my email on it. Thanks!
@@MakingwithMarilyn Don't know how I missed that! Email sent, thank you
I have searched high and low for this specific design and I can’t find it! Are you able to share a link to it?? Or could you share the design with me??
Here is the file that has so many items you can use. www.creativefabrica.com/product/comic-style-pop-art-girls/ref/1340608/
@@MakingwithMarilyn THANK YOU!!!
Can you overlap the paper on the sides?
Yes, that is how I make mine. I have a small overlap on the sides. Some people but their two sides up against each other, but I prefer a small overlap.
You mentioned you have a subscription for the images to sublimated, but can any printer or ink be used? Or is it special paper? I'm new to this, so I was wondering. Other than that, I enjoyed your video! ❤
I'm so sorry I didn't explain all that very well. You need to use sublimation ink, but you can purchase a true sublimation printer or you can use an epson ecotank printer and put sublimation ink into it instead of the ink that comes with it. I have information in the video description as to my printer and then I linked the ink and paper in the video description. Thanks so much for watching!
Beautiful I'm going to give it another try. Thank you
My first several tumblers were not very good so if you are having issues, keep at it. It is so much fun and so pretty when you find the process that works for you.
What is the name of that file? Do you have a link for it? It’s so pretty!! Thanks for sharing!!
