Sublimating black tumblers. How to get the best results
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 окт 2024
- The struggle is real when it comes to sublimating dark tumblers especially with black as the primary color.
I decided to do a little experiment so I can figure out what changes I need to make so I can get the results I want with black tumblers.
This was a huge help for me. I sure hope this will be of great help to others as well who have the same struggles.
Life is too short. Craft it well!

At the beginning of the video, she said something to the effect of learning and learn with her... is it so hard for people to be kind any more? She's trying to figure out what works best for her and her machine, and share knowledge. No one wants to be critized for learning, trial and error, etc. If you don't like what you're watching, scroll troll.
Have a heat press nation press. All my blacks are coming out perfect. I do 350degrees w seam down at bottom for 50 seconds, turn seam to 1 side for 20 seconds, turn to other side for a last 20 seconds. Peel tape immediately but wait 10ish seconds more before removing paper. I tape 4 short pieces sideways on seam, pulling TIGHT. (Middle, both ends, 1 in between ea. Totalling 5 short pieces. Run long piece TIGHTLY down seam. Run my nail on either side of the overlap. Tape around top and bottom pulling TIGHTLY. Been perfect every time
Thanks for sharing!!! I’ll need to try that technique. 🙂
What about pressure?
Thank you for your demonstration. Heat, pressure, taping, all are key factors in getting the right mix. I appreciate your efforts. They are all beautiful and black is a hard color to work with.
Your video is awesome! Everyone else has videos that show perfect results in their tutorials. Congratulations on your channel. I will continue to be one of your followers. :)
Thank you so much! I so appreciate your comment! I look forward to sharing more!
To adjust your pressure,,, you should have a cold press, with a clean piece of sub paper and also a piece of blowout paper,, also.. you shouldn't be using parchment if you can avoid it... ( parchment holds moisture), use craft paper,,, then,,, you pull the BO paper to see if it pulls EVENLY... you don't know if each side is the same because of the way you adjusted... also...... don't do the seam at top and bottom,, do the 3 oclock and 9 oclock position... I think you are awesome but these are some tips and tricks that might help make things better for you... you are pleasant to watch and I subscribed and look forward to more.. :) ( and only trying to help you! :) ((10 years of experience and I love finding new people that have a great on screen presence so I can share them with my group :) )
I love the bubble design!
Thank you for sharing your video! I loved the in-depth processes you tried and seeing each outcome....they all turned out really nice, but I think you nailed number 4!! ❤
Thank you so much!
Love this video…very informative…can you tell me where you got your cutter/trimmer please 😊
@@Team300C Hi!!!! Thank you so much! I’ve had my cutter for a while but I think I got it from Michael’s. 😊
Thank you so much for your video. I just wasted 4 tumblers last night and man it hurts 😂. Will try the # 4 method tonight. 😊
Can you help me..all my black tumblers brown at the top like a brown ghosting I’ve tried different temp, more tape, less tape, sanding it down, even different quality cups. I’ve thrown at LEAST 20😩
Very cute handle ; Freckled n Crafty.
Mahalo nui! Saved me so much time and materials😊
For tumbler 2 did you press for 75 seconds then turn 180 degrees and press again for 75 seconds? Or was it a total of 75 seconds divided by 2?
Would anyone know how to do this in a convection oven? Would the time and temps be different? For a dark to black background timber. Tia.
The way your title reads is basically as if you’re sublimating on a black Tumblr
So helpful. Thank you

👏🏽 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Great idea folding the end of the tape thanks for the tip ❤
The last one looks the best with color because it had the less pressure, you don’t have to have firm pressure with sublimation - you just have to make sure there is no air
Thank you! I appreciate your comment. Yes, I’m slowly but surely learning about my pressure. 😊
@@freckledncrafty also less pressure also eliminates the pesky tape marks and also sometimes when the color looks lighter in places it’s actually paper that stuck to it, if you wash with a soapy warm water and sponge that will come off 💜
I am trying a design with a dark purple background on a 20oz Tumbler. The color came out darker at the bottom and top (about half an inch) of the tumbler than the sides. Do you have any advice?
* I did use #4 method in the press.
Beautiful!!! What printer did you use? What are your printer settings? I’m having trouble with printing mugs with a black background..
What do you mean back seam I would like to know 😅
Hi dear, loved, loved your channel. So sincere and natural. Very well explained. Keep growing. I have subscribed. I’m starting soon too, have all my materials on order. Wish me luck 🎉 what was the name of the design
Thank you so much!!! That is so awesome! The journey of sublimating is definitely fun with quite a few learning curves. You will enjoy it! Keep me posted! Good luck! As far as the design, I don’t know the name. But if you go to Creative Fabrica and type in bubbles tumbler wrap, that design should pop up. 😉
Why did you clean your tumbler’s with alcohol wipes? Then put your hands all over them? Your finger tips have oil in them.
I tape tight on the sides, top and bottom. Then I tape all of those again with baking paper on all sides. I don’t use my tumbler press because I have a big air fryer with balcony doors that does a better job. I put two in each time, cook for 3 minutes, turn them over and cook for another 3 at 185C. I have never had a tumbler with ghosting or bleeding because I watched the best wrapping person I have ever seen before I started. I prefer to use my tumbler press to do two coffee mugs at a time. It works better on porcelain.
I watched this to see how black works because I have never wanted to try it. I think you got it when you started to turn your tumblers over and noticed your press wasn’t even. That was a good fix. I really don’t think you needed to turn the last one so many times. The biggest difference was just in the wrapping. You taught me to know my equipment is the main part and I do. Thank you.
How do you set your printer preferences to get that solid black color I already mess up like 5 tumbler trying pleaseeeeee
How did you get 2 designs to fit on an 11x17 😮 is that a 30oz tumbler?! 😮
First time viewer. Loved your video but… what size is the paper I could not hear it on the video. Just that you used 11 x? Paper cut in half. TIA
Thank you so much! The paper size is 11x17. Sorry for that!
What size is the print itself please
so youre not turning the tumbler at all? does your press cover the whole cup without issue? I always have to turn
What kind of ink , what brand paper , ink , printer that also matters
Thanks for your input. 🙂
Great Video. The problem I have with black or very dark colors is when I print I have the roller lines on the print. So aggravating. I'm watching materials. I've tried different settings and still have a problem. At this point I just can supplement dark tumblers
Hello! How do you make sure your impression doesn't have an 'ant path'? Do you use any profile on your PC?
why not over rap and little left top and bottom paper. and thin tape
You're getting Better WOOOO HOO!!!😊🤗
Thank you!! 😁
Is that heat transfer tape
Yes. I got it from Amazon.
@@freckledncrafty oh ok thx
TIMESSSSSSS 😮😢
How can anyone follow your times when you're just talking back n forth
The title of this should be changed to "How to wrap a tumbler." I fail to see what this has to do with sublimating BLACK tumbler. You are basically showing HOW to wrap a tumbler which applies to any tumbler no matter what color. Usually uneven color of black is due too much heat applied or not cooked long enough where you get the brown instead of black or over cooked where you get the green.
You obviously didn't make it to the end of the video. This was actually really helpful.
@@vanessacuadra2264 and you obviously are entitled to your opinion as I am to mind
@@sworley1956 * mine .... JS 😂
@@kellilynn5870 Nice come back. Improve on getting more subscribers maybe you will do a little bit better
What ARE THE TIMES OF EACH Blah blah girl 😮
Seriously You didn't give time between blah blah, wasted my time
