WOW! I've been searching for WEEKS to find a tutorial like this - I've been struggling with other vids that weren't as clear and concise as yours, THANK YOU!!!!!!
I am so grateful for this video. I usually purchase straight tumblers and I made a mistake and bought a box of 25 tapered tumblers and I've been going crazy trying to figure out how to turn designs into tapered designs. Thank you so much!
My husband just bought me a bunch of tumblers, and he accidently bought tapered ones - I was so lost. Your video is amazing! I am about to give my first go a try.
I had trouble with my file, initially... I went back in to my etsy file, downloaded it again and used the solid black file... It was just an outline previously and BOOM!!! It worked!!! Thank you so very much for this great tutorial video
Amazing work, you have helped me simplify my work with all of the right information. I am so happy to have found you. First time making tumblers, and supper excited to try it out.
I know you put this out there more than a year ago- I want to let you know that this video gave me more information and cleare up so many questions for me. Thank you!!
I have been playing around in cricut to get this template and it was an epic fail. Thank you so much this was very helpful step by step easy to follow. I look forward to more of your tutorials
Yes as I said in my video, you cannot use cricut for this this is only for the silhouette. Download the free silhouette program which is in my link and go from there
You’re a tumbler saver!! I was having such a hard time.. I was using the divide tool and also getting frustrating cause my image wasn’t the same size of my tumbler cause of that darn box 😂 thank you thank you!!
Me too!! I was pulling my hair out trying to figure out why the ONE feature that pushed me to spend the money for business edition wasn’t working. I’m about to try this trick.
Thank you so very much, you are awesome and I learned so much and everything fits as it should on my tumbler.. Thank you again for sharing your knowledge
Thank you for making the video easy to follow... I am having an issue with after I modify and crop, my image dissapears totally. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? TIA
Thank you for the video. Very informative. I do have a question. On your Epson Printer, what is the printer settings you use when printing using sublimation? Thanks in advance
Hi! Love how clear your video is. Thank you for sharing! Will this apply to bottles that taper but have a hump instead of going straight into a new width? Like towards the neck of a container? Sorry if my question isn’t clear enough. I don’t mean this template exactly but the warp function.
This is the best tutorial I have seen and believe me I have looked at at least 40 to 50 tutorials on tumblers. My question is how do I add a name to the design for customization
As I mention in the video you can add anything to your design in that square that you're going to make before dropping it into your template. You can choose text, type what you want and turn it the text however way you wanted to add it to your design
This video is very clear. Thank you!! 💜 I did have a question: you are simply CROPPING the design to fit the template.. Do you know of an easy way to WARP the image? That way you can have a seamless design? Thanks in advance!
@@erikawilliams2271 I print on at least 11x17 paper and it depends on the size of your tumbler. Just try the A4 paper and see if it fits around your cup after cutting your template out.
This process cuts the image to size and not resize. For example, if my image had words across the top or non consistent image, would I lose some of that?
Hi Sharon, thank you for the video, was just what I was looking for. I’ve brought the template from the link you posted, when I bring it into Silhouette it’s quite large and turned in its side. I’ve sized it down to a smaller size and rotated but then I get lost as to how I get it to be the size of yours in the video before I do the cropping. I’m sure this doesn’t make any sense but in case it does I would appreciate any advice you can give. Thanks in advance 💙
first reboot your machine. Bring in the template. If it is still big, change the size to width = 11 and height = 8.5 (make sure its not sideways, if it is rotate it in the straight position). Then following the instructions again from the beginning and let me know what happens.
@@sworley1956 I have been getting this same issue. My measurements even when I put in the width = 11 and height = 8.5 after the tracing it turns my template into w = 10.998 and h = 8.498 how can this be solved?
Hi I'm trying to follow your video, but for some reason when I hit crop my imagine go on the back of the template or disappear can you please help me thank you for your time
That has happen to me before and it will be hard to explain the fix for that unless I see your image you trying to use. You can send me your image to my email address if you like and then we can do it together over the phone. my email address is sworley1956@verizon.net.
@@marlodean1243 I don't think it has nothing to do with what type of device you're using. Before you brought in your template that you going to use did you remove the margins from around the template 1st? I had to do that on someone else's image and once I did that it worked for me. Let me know.
I just purchased an Epson ET2720 and it will not print 11 x 17 only 8 1/2 x 11 or 14. Would this need to be changed from portrait to landscape? Thank you.
I don’t think it will. That’s why I don’t get a printer that only prints on 8 by 11 because you never know when you need them. I don’t believe that 8 by 11 paper is big enough unless you’re printing on a Tumblr
I started out with basics. But when I found I could not save my images as, png, jpg, svg etc. I upgraded to the business edition gave me so much more features.
There is a word that say "Threshold" on your trace dialog box. Slowly slide that pointer to the right until you see your image turn yellow. Keep sliding until it looks like your image is filled in nicely. let me know. To give you a better understanding of the "Threshold: Threshold determines how broadly the trace filter is applied to your image, beginning with the darkest colors on the low end of the scale. As you drag the percentage pointer higher, it picks up more of your design
I love this video, but my studio is not doing what your is doing :( mine doesn’t turn yellow when yours does, and my image doesn’t taper on the template. Can you please help me?

Thank you for this! Question.....was the tumbler template a .PNG file? I have a template I was able to create as a .PDF and when I follow your steps, it removes the colors of my main image that Im trying to crop together.
How do you flip the design and the template mine uploaded side ways and when I right click it does not give me the option to flip it upwards the right way, also when I bring out my image that I want to print, my template disappears
@@sworley1956 I got it! Now on my grid there is another out line limiting size, is this because I have not purchased and in the free mode still? Its only giving me access to half the grid so I can just barely print out a full wrap tumbler or is there a way to remove it?
@@jennyboone3040 In the basic version you can do pretty much anything. but to understand what you are referring to you gonna have to take a snapshot of what you are telling me
Someone else had the same problem but in order to figure out your image issue they had to send it to my email and then I would tell you what the problem is. If you like my email address is sworley1956@verizon.net. And their issue was that they did not crop off the margins from the template first before they place it over their image
Hi there, i really need help to figure out how to use my template in photoshop. Im using A4 paper but every time i print i dnt get the exact hight. Can i use A4 sublimation paper for 20 oz skinny tapered tumbler?
Hi there, I’m sorry I don’t use Photoshop so I can’t begin to tell you how to do anything in it. Photoshop is complicated for me silhouette is much easier
Finally a video that is simple and to the point. Thank you.

I was struggling bad you are direct and to the point however for some reason I am not getting my bottom of the design to look curved?
Thanks! Great video, easy to understand!

The design will warp your image because the template is slightly tapered at the top.
Oh My God thank you!! This was a great video
Thank you for explaining it the way you did
So helpful!!! I don’t see the link for the free silhouette or the template
It is in the description.

I am not understanding your question about the paper size.
@@sworley1956 the paper it 8.5 by 11

Can you do this on an 8.5 x 11 for a 20oz tumbler and if so do you have or can you make a video for it.
Best video ever
and the middle empty circle for the starbucks logo? there should be a circle cut out in the middle...😕
GF you are my favorite person!

And does your printer magically print this at the actual size? Doesn't seem to be possible.

Just make it smaller and then proceed with the tutorial
Last question on this.. (Silhouette) Do you have the basic, design edition or business edition?
I started out with basics. But when I found I could not save my images as, png, jpg, svg etc. I upgraded to the business edition gave me so much more features.
Hi Sharon, When I go to Object, modify crop it doesn't keep the template it makes it square like the design that I am using. What am I doing wrong?
I cannot figure out that one just by what you said. A template is not going to turn your design square.

A tapered tumbler as I explain in the video is slightly curved up at the top

Your printer needs to have the capability of printing on large paper like 11x17 paper.
