Wow...I wasnt sure if I would buy a press but now can't wait to get one. How permanent will the htv be. Can the mug go into the dishwasher. I would love to see you use htv on a regular mug.
I’m really happy to know that the HTV worked in the mug press. I have been going back and forth trying to decide if I wanted to delve into sublimation. What really holds me back is the cost of the printer and ink. This would at least give me a better option for making mugs. The cost of the mug press is financially a better choice for me. Thanks for sharing! This makes my heart happy!
Hey Jana! It's all about what works best for you and your crafting needs. Are you a personal crafter or have a small business? Does it make sense for you to spend the money on sublimation supplies? It's a lot to consider! We are here to help if you have any questions!!
Hey Jennie! Before testing out any other mugs, make sure you take measurements because not all mugs are sized to fit this mug press and it's not adjustable outside it's normal range. Hope this helps! ---Becky
Thank you very much for showing this. I have a mug press and I'm very happy to find there's other materials in which I can use on a mug besides infusible ink thank you thank you thank you 😊
I used my empty 15oz can of beans to Sublimate on. I cut 2 strips of my Cricut Infusible ink sheets and wrapped & taped them to the can . One on top and the other on the bottom. Left the middle of the can which has ridges alone. I ran the full cycle. Of course I had to turn the can around in my press to finish the Sublimation were the handle for a mug would of been. I use and decorate empty cans to hold my crafting supply's. This will put to good use any infusible ink leftover strips.
Thank you! I appreciate you taking on the challenge! With this said, the rest of us can feel better about our investment of the mug press with the additional usage you’ve proven! 🤗
It's good to know that we can use copy paper or parchment paper..ty for clarifying that.. I'm always using parchment paper for allot of projects so glad to know I don't have to wait on an order for bakers paper to arrive..
Amazing! I was kind of not sure if I wanted to get the Mug press but seeing this makes me really want to get one knowing it can do more than just infusible ink/sublimation! Thank you for this tutorial!
THANK YOU,THO i DON'T HAVE A ''CRICUT''MUG PRESS(YET)BUT I DO HAVE IT WITH A PRESS THAT HAS AN ''MUG ADAPTER'' AND WORKS WONDERFULLY. THO I'M SURE ITS MY ''ERROR'' AND I DID A HTV ON A MUG AND THO IT TURNED OUT ''BEAUTIFULLY'',UNTIL YOU PUT IT UNDER THE LIGHT. THE LETTERING TURNED OUT WONDERFUL BUT AS I LOOK CLOSER IT LOOKS LIKE SOME OF THE ''TRANSPARENT VINYL HAD ''FORMED''AROUND THE ''LETTERING'S'' WHICH MY CONCERN OF ''LIFTING'' SOONER OR LATER. I'M SURE I WAS OVER CONCERNED ABOUT THE TIME AND TEMP AND THIS WAS THE RESULTS. THANK YOU,I LEARN GREATLY FROM YOU.
Thank you sharing! I don't have a printer to use for sublimation ink and was hoping this would work. I am now subscribed to your channel and look forward to learning more from you.
Thank you so much. I am new to crafting and wasn't able to use my mug press often due to not having a sublimation printer and infusable ink is challenging at times. Once again thank you for sharing
Newbie here, why can't it go in the microwave? My husband wants a coffee mug but he reheats his coffee in the microwave all the time, so is there any vinyl that can go in the microwave?
This is a total game changer!!! I can't wait to get to Dollar Tree to get some mugs to try this out!!! Thank you so very much for sharing this tutorial!! I'm so excited!!! Do you think this might withstand the dishwasher and/or the microwave better than permanent vinyl? ❣💐🌸🌺💐🌸🌺💐🌸🌺❣
Hey Lorraine! Before testing out any other mugs, make sure you take measurements because not all mugs are sized to fit this mug press and it's not adjustable outside it's normal range. As for the dishwasher, dinner crafters say that it will hold up, others say there's washes off. I believe it's because of the different temperatures for individual dishwashers. Definitely DO NOT put in the microwave. Hope this helps! ---Becky
I just wanted to first say thank you for your quick and to the point tutorial, it is so frustrating to get sucked into a video which turns into videos and still not have any instructions 😜 My question is will it be dishwasher safe? And can you do print and cut option with the printer paper like the infusible pens or will the water slide paper decals work with the press as well??? Thank you again 💁🏻♀️
Hey Aprylmae, I'm glad you enjoyed the video! Since the temperature of your dishwasher will vary, I would still hand wash only. You can definitely use the Infusible Ink pens with the mug press, but I don't think I would use it with Waterslide or as a print and cut transfer. Some crafters say that it holds up in the dishwasher, others don't, do it's a coin toss to be honest. Hope this helps! ---Becky
Since the temperature of your dishwasher will vary, I would still handwash only. Some crafters say that it holds up in the dishwasher, others don't, do it's a coin toss to be honest. Hope this helps! ---Becky
Hey Faith, I would probably just try to time it for 45-60 seconds and then remove. I'm not sure how reliable the lights are for timing. Glad you are enjoying the videos! ---Becky
Hey Keti! For the dishwasher, some crafters say that it will hold up, others say there's washes off. I believe it's because of the different temperatures for individual dishwashers. Definitely DO NOT put in the microwave. Hope this helps! ---Becky
Thank you for doing this video. Can I ask does the HTV Vinyl lay smoother after it has been in the mug press than if it was just regular permanent vinyl? Xx
Thank you! Question, you said it went to the third light, but did it reset after your first 30 second press? If so, maybe it needs more than the third light? My mug press is on order, so I don't have it to test yet.
Hey Suzanne! It's possible, it won't be an exact science with using HTV. But I think that 60-seconds should be a good pressing time, I'll play with it again this afternoon. Although I have on a few occasions, I don't think I would regularly press HTV at this high of a temp for more than a minute. Hope this helps! ---Becky
Hey Linda! Unfortunately no, I don't believe so. I only experimented with the Glitter HTV because I knew it could be used with the higher temperatures for sublimation. Hope this helps! ---Becky
Hi Carissa! Both the HTV and the permanent adhesive last through many hand washes. However, we do prefer the adhesive vinyl over HTV for drinkware as drinkware isn't HTV's main purpose. - Dawn 🙂
Hay, thanks so much for this video. I'm pretty new to Cricuting, and hadn't even considered HTV in this way. Can I use regular HTV, or does it have to be glitter? and is it necessary to seal it after pressing?
Hi Laura! Around the 9 minute mark, Becky talks about how HTV is durable so I don't think it has to be just glitter. Let us know how it turns out if you try regular HTV! 😊
Hey Debbie, I carry them in my little vinyl store but you can find even prettier ones on Amazon, just search for Wedding Tweezers or Fine Tip Tweezers. Hope this helps! ---Becky

What GREAT information! Sometimes, it just has to be glitter and you can't sublimate glitter! Love it!

That's awesome...another good idea! Thanks for sharing!
The look is sort of that of a transparency color. Nothing like the solid infusible ink sheet, but nevertheless it's pretty and different.
@@ILUVSTEFA98 sounds really cool. Thank you Blanca.
Very Creative! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! I appreciate you taking on the challenge! With this said, the rest of us can feel better about our investment of the mug press with the additional usage you’ve proven! 🤗
Becky thanks for testing the mug press with HTV. I never would have thought of that. I love your videos.
You're welcome, we're always happy to help! ☺️
Thank you, I never knew you could use HTV with the mug press. Wow the possibilities are really endless now 😊
We would love to see your creations! You can share your craft photos in our Facebook group here: get.designbundles.net/facebook/community_group
@@DesignBundles I can use a solid color htv on like say a dt mug?, how long do I press it for in the cricut mugpress?
It's good to know that we can use copy paper or parchment paper..ty for clarifying that.. I'm always using parchment paper for allot of projects so glad to know I don't have to wait on an order for bakers paper to arrive..
I know I'm late but I'm definitely trying this tomorrow😌
Ohhh let us know how it goes!
@@DesignBundles it came out beautifully thanks to your video........🥰
Wow I bought a Cricut mug press today and thought it only worked with infusible ink👌🏾 thank you
Happy to help! 😊
Thank you so much. I feel confident trying this now.
Thank you, your video answered several questions that I had.
Love this video, I just got my mug press…wanted to test it but didn’t I the material required going to test it now ..thank you

Hi there! Let us know how the other brand works for you! - Dawn
Thank you for this.
Our pleasure!
Absolutely fun! I am having a blast with my cricut mug press!
Love it
Awesome! Thank you.
You're welcome!
Thank you, going to have to try...was wondering if HTV would work, now I know...
Great video. Thanks for sharing. Getting my Mug Press soon. It was shipped yesterday.
Hope you enjoy it! Thanks for watching! 😊
Thanks for this alternative use for the mug press
You are so welcome! 😊
thanks; wish you could have a close up of the finished product.
Excellent! Thank you. Can this go in the dishwasher? Permanent vinyl I have done has been in the dishwasher since Christmas successfully!
Good idea.....I didn't think about using it with HTV! Thanks Becky! I 😛
Thank you so much. I am new to crafting and wasn't able to use my mug press often due to not having a sublimation printer and infusable ink is challenging at times. Once again thank you for sharing
Infusable ink is horrible in my opinion. If your cutting anything delicate it’s hard!
Thank you for this video! It really helped and got me excited to know I can use htv on it🙌🏼
Glad it was helpful, thank you for watching! 😊
@@DesignBundles I can use any color htv, and do I go the full time on the mug heatpress?
You can set a timer on your phone if not sure.
Great tip!
Good to know! TFS
Omg this looks sooo much fun!
I think it’s great to be able to use the mug press for HTV.
I love it. Can’t wait to get the mug press.
Newbie here, why can't it go in the microwave? My husband wants a coffee mug but he reheats his coffee in the microwave all the time, so is there any vinyl that can go in the microwave?
Thank you. I will implement and see my results. Hugs!🤗

Is the glitter HTV dishwasher safe on the mug you made today? What about microwave safe? Thanks for your help!
Great video! Do you think it would take the same amount of time for non-glitter HTV?
Hey hey have you an update as to whether or not htv can be applied with a mug press on a glass tumbler?
This is great 👍. I just purchased my cricut mug press and I don't have any infusable ink sheets yet.
Hey there! You are going to love it!! Let us know if you have any questions and we are happy to help.
I’m going to try holographic htv fingers crossed thanks for the tutorial
Good luck! :)
Tara Ledbetter, did you try it? If so, how did it go?
How did it go? Don't keep us waiting! Lol
I just wanted to first say thank you for your quick and to the point tutorial, it is so frustrating to get sucked into a video which turns into videos and still not have any instructions 😜

I don't have any heat proof tape. Can I miss this step? Not using the parchment paper at all?
Wow that’s great!
Hello. How much time should you leave the cup in the mug press when using sublimation prints
Does it need to be sealed for dishwasher use?
Thank you for the great video
Thanks for watching! :)
Does it have to be glitter htv can it be ordinary htv?
is it dishwasher safe? ty
How does it hold up to washing? Will it go in the dishwasher?
Since the temperature of your dishwasher will vary, I would still handwash only. Some crafters say that it holds up in the dishwasher, others don't, do it's a coin toss to be honest. Hope this helps! ---Becky
Thanks
Love it!
Can the htv glitter on the mug be put in the dishwasher or the microwave?
I would not do either hand wash only :)
Hi the iron on also works
Awsome ty
How will the maintenance/ care be.... same hand wash only! No microwave. No dishwasher
Your videos are always so helpful for a new Cricut-er like me! I appreciate you!!
Can these mugs go in dishwasher
Hi Can you use permanent vinyl with the mug press?
Yes just press for a few seconds
Is it dishwasher safe?
I love watching your videos wow great job that’s a great test thanks also number when all 3 are lit right ?
Hey Faith, I would probably just try to time it for 45-60 seconds and then remove. I'm not sure how reliable the lights are for timing. Glad you are enjoying the videos! ---Becky
I tried 3 times but it doesn't work at all. What am I doing wrong?
Do you seal it after? Is it dishwasher safe?
you don't need to seal it and yes its safe :)
Great information! Is this mug dishwasher/microwave safe? Thanks
Hey Keti! For the dishwasher, some crafters say that it will hold up, others say there's washes off. I believe it's because of the different temperatures for individual dishwashers. Definitely DO NOT put in the microwave. Hope this helps! ---Becky
what about regular htv(non glitter)
Hello Nina!
Regular HTV would be the same process! 😊
Thanks a million for getting back to me so quickly.
I watched your mug press using HTV. I will it stand up to dish washing. Or should it be hand wash only?
Could you use dishwasher safe mod podge over the glitter htv?
You definitely could! - Brittany
Great video!! Thank you! Where could I find the little pot holder you used to take out the mug when it was hot??
Hey Jenna, do you mean the little silicone holders? They are from Dollar Tree. Hope this helps! ---Becky
This HTV is the same as the ones we use for shirts right??? I finally got a mug press and I wanna try it. Thanks
Awesome
Thanks for watching! 😊
Exciting
Thank you for doing this video. Can I ask does the HTV Vinyl lay smoother after it has been in the mug press than if it was just regular permanent vinyl? Xx
Hello, do you think you'd be able to do the same with printable htv?
Yes, great suggestion! 😊
Thank you! Question, you said it went to the third light, but did it reset after your first 30 second press? If so, maybe it needs more than the third light?

How do I make sure it’s well on there?
If it is not peeling off and does not look wrinkly it is on there! - Brittany
Is it dishwasher safe if using htv on the mugs
I have a question did it stay on after hand washing the mug
Yes, you will want to make sure you do not put it in the dishwasher.
Can I use siser glitter HTV for this project? Ty
Hey Lorraine! You certainly should be able to, Siser Glitter HTV is used all the time with Sublimation. Hope this helps! ---Becky
do you think this will work with non-glitter htv?
That was great but can regular htv be used in the same fashion.
Hey Linda! Unfortunately no, I don't believe so. I only experimented with the Glitter HTV because I knew it could be used with the higher temperatures for sublimation. Hope this helps! ---Becky
Can you wash the mug ? End it does not come off?
You can wash it gently by hand. I would not recommend a dishwasher
Did anyone try this , if so how did it hold up? Did it last longer than regular vynalbwash wise?
Hi Carissa! Both the HTV and the permanent adhesive last through many hand washes. However, we do prefer the adhesive vinyl over HTV for drinkware as drinkware isn't HTV's main purpose. - Dawn 🙂
Do you have cure the HTV like you wld if you didn’t use heat press?
When it comes to HTV you will always need to use a heat press or a mug press to get the HTV to adhere.
Hay, thanks so much for this video. I'm pretty new to Cricuting, and hadn't even considered HTV in this way. Can I use regular HTV, or does it have to be glitter? and is it necessary to seal it after pressing?

Hey Debbie, I carry them in my little vinyl store but you can find even prettier ones on Amazon, just search for Wedding Tweezers or Fine Tip Tweezers. Hope this helps! ---Becky
@@DesignBundles Thanks Becky! is your vinyl store available online? If so, can I get a link?
how does that hold up in dishwasher?
We always recommend hand washing with mugs, but you can use the top rack of the dishwasher on occasion.
So I can use any iron on on mugs?
Hi there! We recommend the Cricut mugs for the mug press but it's up to you!
What kind of vinyl do you use?
This was heat transfer vinyl. 😊
