After removing the lint, I always pre-press my fuzzy items like blankets, pillows & cozy socks. It makes it so much easier to work with & the design looks great. Another great tip.... Before you put the tape on your fuzzy items, stick the tape to your clothing then to the item. The tape will still hold the transfer in place and won't pull the fibers up when you remove the tape. P.S. Great job on the video. You are very easy to watch and listen to.
I just wanted to tell you that your pillow sub really encouraged me and I found some fabric at our Hobby Lobby (no 5below here) and plan to make pillows I can sublimate! Yay! Thank you so much for your tutorials and sweet heart 💜
Newbie Sublimator here!! just want to say i love your vibes & i enjoyed this video! thank you so much. gunna have to stop by soon to see what i can practice on :)
All I can say is, you are a true inspiration. I’m so glad your RUclips channel was suggested. I subscribed immediately and joined your Facebook page as well.
On your white items and the lanyards you did on the amazon haul you should be pressing at 385 and shorten the press time for each side to keep from burning or melting.
Thank you so much I bought ALL those items a few days ago and was wondering if it was gonna work...I'm super excited about the blankets but I also got the Xmas stocking they are fluffy like blanket so I feel I got a WIN. Thanks again for this video
I love, love love that store. I sublimated so much stuff from there last Christmas. Putting names on the hooded towels went over well. Couldn’t find any there last week.
A super video... everything turned out so beautiful!!! Thank you! Have you thought of doing a video while you are in the store? They have those walk throughs in the quilt videos. Again Thank You So Much!!!
@@CraftableThings Some of us will never see a sublimation store or craft convention. Quilt Roadies.. does it for the quilters. I imagine sublimation will expand into the quilting corner too. You are the best!
Thank you so much for doing this. I have the white blanket, scarfs and the dress. I was wondering about that pillow. I am going back to get some! You are awesome. I am a subscriber, now. and glad that I found you!!! God Bless!!! Where can I find the file for the blanket? I would LOVE to make that.
That’s so cool! Can you sell this stuff for enough of a profit? How do you print the bigger ones designs? Or do you order the designs preprinted? I never knew what sublimation was till now. This is the first video I’ve ever seen on it. Wow you could make tons of personalized gifts affordably this way.
Hi Rita! Yes, you definitely can make a profit selling this stuff. 😁 I print the images at home on an epson printer that prints up to 13x19 with sublimation ink. This cannot be done with regular/pigment ink. Thank you so much for watching!
Thank you for sharing! I’m new to sublimation and I tried a few things. I tried a shirt and recently a blanket from five below but not sure what I did wrong the image did not go on the shirt or blanket. I bought everything I needed to sublimate but I’m struggling.
@@CraftableThings that's awesome! They look super comfy! I'm hoping they have them this season. Thank you for all of your great videos I enjoy watching them & seeing what works & what doesn't.
I am confused... lol why are all the comments about sublimation? The video is a tooth fairy tin that is not sublimated. My question is, what size did you cut the scalloped circle? The round is 2inch? and the scalloped is what size? I tried a 2.25 and a 2.5 inch scallop and one seemed too small and one seemed too big. Can you give the measurements for all the pieces? Please and thank you :)
Thank you! The colors are really based on my print settings. I switch them around sometimes. However, I mostly print on Premium Presentation Matte, Best Quality, Adobe RGB, 2.2 Gamma and I up the brightness to about 3. My printer can print up to 13x19. I print that straight from the whatever design software I'm using (mostly Adobe). I just go to page setup and switch paper sizes. If printing larger than that, I tile the page when printing.
My ET-15000 prints up to 13x19. I printed the pillow and blanket image on that one. The socks and dress images were printed on a 8.5x11 with an ET-2750. What printer do you have?
@@CraftableThings I'm going to buy a Sublimation printer, but my regular printer is an Epson ET 4750, I use this to print on transfer paper for dark fabric but I don't know what's the maximum size I can print on my printer... and thank you so much for answer my question I just subscribe to your channel I like your videos so much you are very nice!
I usually measure the substrate to determine what size I want to make the image and then I adjust the design according to that in whatever design program I’m working in.
Thank you for watching! Which photo/image? I don’t think I actually designed any of these (I haven’t watched the video since posting, sorry). They came from google searches or Etsy, if I recall correctly. If it’s a specific design that you’re interested in, I’ll send you the link.
Try the Epson clearance website and search for eco tanks. Any ecotank works great. The cheapest I’ve seen is $160 in the clearance site. I have one that works great. You’ll also need sublimation ink. Do not use the ink that comes with it. Epson is releasing a printer specifically for sublimation next month...that one will be around $400.
Yes...you can only sub directly on items that have a high polyester count. I prefer at least 65% polyester. There are other materials, like some linen and satin. There are “ways” around it, which usually include subbing onto another product and then pressing that into the shirt or material.

On my way to Five Below thank you
Enjoy!
Love it, and your colors are so bright what ink do you use for your printer?
I sell an ink & in my 2750 I use it www.etsy.com/shop/DyenamicPrintSupply?ref=seller-platform-mcnav. In my 15000, I use Cosmos Ink.
Love this ❤️

I use an Epson ET-15000 and ET-2750.
@@CraftableThings Wow! Appreciate you. Thank you for the immediate response.
How large was your image for the blanket? I have the same one and couldn’t figure out the sizing.
Helloooo! I was wondering how you made out w/those nifty socks. Did they hold up well & refluff after they got washed?
Hi Rachel! Yep, they did. I have them ready for me to wear this year.

This video is about sublimation.
Do you not put something between the layers of the dress?
I don't always. It's best practice to when you work with unfamiliar products, though.
Can you please tell me how you get rid or avoid heat pressing lines? I don’t mean from the paper but from the heat press machine. Example, the box
Nice. Thanks
Everything came out lovely where did you get you heat press I love the size I have a tiny one
I got the press from fancierstudio.com. It's 16x24
I have the white dress! Thanks for the info.
Nice job.
Thank you!
I got the blue blanket just like that do you think it will sub good?
What shade of blue?
I can't picture it.
New subbie, Thank you
Welcome and thank you so much for subscribing!
Your heat press is huge! Where did you get it from?
Fancier Studio. It's a 16x24
New to your video everything looks good . I have a question though what kind of tape is that ?
Thanks for watching! It’s heat resistant tape.
hi, love your content! just quick question.. what size paper did you use for the blanket?
13x19...I printed from the ET-15000
How do you remove the tape mark you had
on the pillow above pattern.
Hey girl!
how do you get the image to come out so vibrant? love the video. what software do you use to print that large?
Thank you! The colors are really based on my print settings. I switch them around sometimes. However, I mostly print on Premium Presentation Matte, Best Quality, Adobe RGB, 2.2 Gamma and I up the brightness to about 3. My printer can print up to 13x19. I print that straight from the whatever design software I'm using (mostly Adobe). I just go to page setup and switch paper sizes. If printing larger than that, I tile the page when printing.
Can I ask what size you made your image for the blanket please?
Hi JoAnne...I don't remember at all and I can't even check as I gave it away. Sorry.
Can you make a video how to put pages together and sublimated for large images please. Because I don’t have big heat press just 12 by 10 Cricut press
Thank you for watching & yes, I’ll make one in a few days.
What printer and ink do you use ? I’m new at this and love this ❤️
I use and Epson ET-15000 & ET-2750. Thank you for watching!
I'm totally new to sublimation. What kind of tape do you use to secure your sublimation paper?
I use a heat tape. That helps the paper stay in place to avoid ghosting or shadowing of the transfers.
Hi I enjoyed your video will you please tell me the name of your sublimation paper?
Thank you for watching! I use A-Sub sublimation paper.
What size heat press is that
Where did you get the movie quote image? That’s cool.
I got it from Etsy. www.etsy.com/shop/SikshopGifts?ref=yr_purchases
@@CraftableThings OH AWESOME THANK YOU!!
Hi what kind of tape ru using and I don’t have a big heat press can i use the cricut easy press?
I'm using heat resistant tape - amzn.to/3k9vqBM & yes, you can use your easy press. Do you have the Easy Press 2?
Hi, may I ask where did you get your design? I looked for honestly speaking. Is there a second name?
I got some of these from Design Bundles. However, in another video, I used images from shop.silaholicsanonymous.com
can fabric other than polyester be used? can non "sublimation" specific coffee mugs be used?
For true sublimation, it has to be at least 65% polyester. Only cups with a special coating can be used, also.
how you print big images? what size are you using on your prints? there very nice!
My ET-15000 prints up to 13x19. I printed the pillow and blanket image on that one. The socks and dress images were printed on a 8.5x11 with an ET-2750. What printer do you have?

@@CraftableThings where do you buy the paper for the size that you use? the 13x19?
I usually buy from amazon. The A-Sub brand.
@@CraftableThings thank you so much!
Hello. I clicked on the link for the sublimation paper and it definitely did not take me to correct place. Do you have another link? Thank you.
Thanks for letting me know. The other one probably expired. amzn.to/3bo4NYy
Beautiful how do you size your images?
I usually measure the substrate to determine what size I want to make the image and then I adjust the design according to that in whatever design program I’m working in.
what brand or kind of heat tape is that and where did you get it? thanks
This is the exact heat tape that I use - amzn.to/3nN0au8
Is poly the only fabric used for subbing?
yes...the items need a high poly count. There are some satin and linen material that can be subbed on.
Do you go to a print shop for your iron ons?
No, I print them.
Im new to this what does it feel like on the furry fabrics?
The link melts into the fabric. You can’t feel it.
What type of tape do you use?
This is the exact heat tape that I use. amzn.to/3k9vqBM
Is that special tape?
yes, it is. It's heat tape.
U didn’t mention anything about the photo , how u made it.
I’m clueless, even in between doing an example you should mention it again.

2.2 Gamma
I often adjust the brightness and saturation,
Subscribed and belled...

How does the sublimation ink do in the wash?
It's adheres to items permanently. In 100% polyester, I have never experienced any fading.
@@CraftableThings Thank you

So can you only sub laminate on polyesther
Yes...you can only sub directly on items that have a high polyester count. I prefer at least 65% polyester. There are other materials, like some linen and satin. There are “ways” around it, which usually include subbing onto another product and then pressing that into the shirt or material.

A-Sub 125-G
What size is the image on the blanket
It's a 12.5 x 13"
