I like to do Sublimation printing too. I use a Epson ET-2720 with special ink in it. I find these setting to work the best = Paper Type: Premium Photo Paper Gloss, and Quality set to the highest mark (press "more" to see the highest mark). This will add more ink to your heat-transfer paper. This is important because your paper will absorbed and keep some of that ink inside it - even when transferring the print to the canvas. You'll get crisper lines and details in your transfer this way. I make Doll Fabric and the small print needs to be as detailed as possible. This is just a suggestion, but I hope it helps! All the best! 💕
Loved seeing outside of the studio and cannot wait to venture along with you during the market :). It would be fun to see inside arts and crafts shops in Portugal if you ever pop into some from time to time.
So happy you enjoyed it! I’m making an effort to film more in public eheh. Crafts stores now it’s a mess right now, we have to ask at the counter most of the times 😭 but I’ll definitely try to go eventually eheh
I've only realised how important it is to include the packaging supplies into the shipping price recently!! such a great tip! the pouches look super cute so far, keep going :)
It was so fun to see a glimpse of your home and hometown! Your hometown is SO GORGEOUS! Wow, that artwork you drew for Patreon looks AMAZING! Love the colors and the lighting! Yes, it is very important to figure out your costs! I've had people tell me they didn't want to raise the price of their items because their items wouldn't sell, but you're not making a profit if you're not pricing your items right! Excited to see your next vlog about the market!
Bia, you're videos always makes my smile a bit brighter. Your enthusiasm is contagious! Great tips for those starting out. I remember my early days many years ago. It was exciting and overwhelming at the same time. I share this video with my daughter. She's gathering the supplies she needs. She plans to launch her online store in May which happens to be her birth month. Thanks so much for giving us a peek into your daily life. It's so beautiful. I cannot wait to receive my package. I always enjoy watching you get your packages ready, and now since I'm supporting you through Patreon, I'm honored to be receiving one of those packages. The mice are adorable, and they are my favorite critters, which makes my first package from you even more special. I cannot wait! :)
Hi Bia! So glad you’re feeling better! It was so exciting getting to see what your everyday looks like! It looks so beautiful and fresh there. Hope you have a great time at the market and I’m really enjoying the wallpaper from your recent newsletter 💕💙
Hi Bia! Was nice to see you working with the pouches as I have some on the way too. I can already tell it's going to be a tad frustrating trying to figure out the settings to work with lol. Your pouches look good still! They look a little like watercolor paintings. Glad your feeling better and back in the studio :)
It’s a little tricky and I advise you to maybe use not so detailed art, I think that might look better! Aww thanks Corrina, so happy you think that eheh 😍✨🌈
I'm so glad to see you're feeling better Bia 😊 Your background for the little mice was awesome 😁 I loved it ♥️ Your Patreons are so lucky to receive such lovely things this month 😊. So so cute 😊 Hope the market goes well 😃
Hi! I'm happy that you're feeling better and I'm exited to see your new products! Plus the print is so so so so cute! Seeing you outside the studio shocked me because I actually used to live there and seeing someone you look up to being successful near you makes you feel more encouraged and motivated to continue and achieve more! Thank you so much for being here and being amazing! ✨💖✨
@@aPenasIllustrator It's lovely there and I'm considering going back! 💖 I'm the one thankful! You just changed my perspective on so many things and i could feel like i could relate more! ☺️💖✨
Ahh! As bolsinhas ficaram lindas! 🥰🥰 Fico feliz que esteja melhor! Os novos personagens são muito fofos 🥺 adorei os prints! E, Bia, toda vez que você mostra um pouquinho da rua e do lugar onde você trabalha/mora eu fico LOUCAAA pra ir conhecer Portugal hahaha que lugar lindo onde você está!
So glad to hear you are doing well. I always enjoy a lot your vlogs. I don't know, I get inspired whenever I'm listenning to your vlogs and whatching what you do. c:
So glad that you are feeling better! The pouches are adorable 😊 Loved the footage of the park, it really took me back to my travels in Portugal! Wishing you all the best from Nova Scotia, Canada! 💕

Love seeing outside of the studio 😍 seeing you pack is calming too 💓 the information on packaging and shipping is so useful I'm always stumped on how much to charge for shipping 💖
😻 omg I wish I could press the Like button for 1000x Likes because I enjoy this new studio vlog so much 😻 Unexpected bloopers at the end made me chuckle 😂You also look extra lovely in the sunshine!! What a beautiful country. So glad you are well now Covid is scary 😓
Your mouse print is so beautiful 😍 and thank you for discussing the shipping, especially from the buyers perspective. I include p&p on Etsy but it's hard to know if you lose out to people that charge separately. Hope your fair went well.
Thank you so much, I’m so proud of it eheh 🥰 it’s so hard to navigate through it until we find what works and what not! Specially on Etsy, I find shipping there so confusing!
Lo que debes hacer es poner un cartón en medio para que le de altura y así puedas sublimar y que quede pareja la sublimación... el problema está en las costuras, las costuras que tiene alrededor hacen que el lugar que quieres sublimar se hunda y que la tela no reciba bien la tinta del papel de sublimación... ten cuidado con eso... es preferible que sublimes una tela de poliéster y luego tú misma hagas las costuras y coloques la cremallera, lo mismo pasa si quieres sublimar un bolso ya cosido... debes poner un cartón en medio y eso le dará la altura para que sublimes sin problema-. y también prueba de poner polvo de poliamida en el papel ya impreso... debes curar primero la poliamida para que tome la tinta y luego sublimas a 150° por 15" ... los colores quedarán mas nítidos.
Hello, you sometimes have to read the fine details with Amazon sublimation products, they aren't always what the title says. But to test, I would make a small design with time and temp and press, move over repeat. I wouldn't waste so many and you also have the back. But with testing anything with sublimation, small sections you can even include the time and temp in the print for future comparison.
Yeah I know, this journey started with searching for sublimation inks, ordering and ending up with a printer with normal inks 😂 I did that after the first two after getting them better, printed on both sides. But I’ll do that next time! Thanks :)
Just be careful with resin, it’s recommended to use a proper mask perphaps 3m mask like for grafitti if that makes any sense lol glad you’re feeling better, love your content 😊❤️
@@aPenasIllustrator sorry I got my answer at the end. I was talking about patron boxes but I asked during the middle of the video. Great video. You live in a beautiful place.

They are too cute. I am new to sublimation so I like to see video's so I can learn.
Thank you so much eheh 😍 it can be a lot of trial and error most of the times 😬
Hiii! How do you calculate for shipping? Do you add all the materials? 🤔 let me know!
I usually add the cost of the packaging materials to either the shipping or the item. Depending on what it is.
@@TheArtisticNewfie I think in Etsy that might be easy because shipping there is a mess 😬
Can you order these boxes?

I know that, this is more like linen and polyester, not cotton. Thank you 😊
I use Amazon linen bags, but I place about 1/4 inch pressing pad inside and press at 385 degrees for 60 seconds.
