I found your channel two days ago (looking for cricut mystery box unboxing) and I have to tell you that I adore you and your content. You are such a breath of fresh air; you're knowledgeable, funny, and most important - you're not annoying and pandering like many crafty content creators. Thank you for being awesome and for the quality videos! Happy New Year!
You have stolen my heart. I have watched many videos with many different hosts. But Delonda!!! I am highly impressed with your delivery method, your mode of executing these videos and commentaries. I love seeing your beautiful smile and the way you tell those picky crafters to do whatever is BEST FOR YOU!! lol. you are very easy to follow thanx for doing what you do!!!! Cuz W/O you there definitely would be no me...
I am late to this party but I am in charge of making t-shirts for a crafting get-a-way and I was researching to see if it was less expensive to order the transfer or buy the vinyl I need (multi color) and make it piece mail. I was also researching if it would be difficult to apply. You answered both of my questions. Thank you. Your video is great.
That’s for the information. Im also here in Houston. And have my Design company. I rarely do tshirts but design and print everything else. But when I do. I always look around for new ways to do shirts..
Hi, Delonda, I’m going to share pictures of the tumbler that I subbed yesterday. It turned out so pretty. I’m keeping it for myself since I was just getting more practice. I used the thermometer that you place inside the air fryer oven instead of the temperature gun that you point to the inside of the oven. I’m glad I ordered it. It came 2 per pack. Turned out, with the air fryer set to convection technology, the thermometer registered at 500 degrees! No wonder I ruined a few before I figured out that I didn’t have to leave them in for 5 minutes. So I lowered the temperature to 350 degrees and increased the time to 6 minutes, turning it at 3 minutes. I got the same beautiful results as when it sublimated at 500 degrees for 2.5 minutes. I think I like the faster time process. 😂 Please let me know what you think.
Love everyone of your videos! Your smile is so contagious, I forgot I'm even there learning something new! Can't wait to try all these ideas after I get through some medical stuff. Thank u so much!
Oh Delonda, can you believe that I got tears in my eyes when you peeled that paper off the image? 🥹 I can't believe how good that looks and how easy it was for you to make. I have been struggling with various methods and on multiple blanks just to get one right. I've got the white polyester down, but that's a given. The only problem I have with that is finding polyester shirts. However, THIS is a game changer. Thank you so much for teaching us about this paper and using this method on cotton... I LOVE IT!! ❤️❤️❤️ I just hope my prints look as good as yours. Thanks again and keep up the good work. 🤗🤗🤗
Thank you so much! I purchase all of my DTF Transfers from Atlanta Vinyl because they are excellent quality and I get a discount. Here is my link and discount code if you need it atlantavinylstore.com/?ref=AziPtTzZ and the code is DELONDA
@Crafting with Delonda Thank you so much, Delonda. I did go to the website and noticed something different from the rest. They don't sell blank DTF transfer sheets, do they? So if we want something specific, we order it, they make it and send it to us? I would prefer to print my own at home, but I may be wrong. Am I missing something?
I really love DTF transfers, use them all the time but I'm very interested in sublimation. Considering you have experience with both, which do you think is better? DTF is quick and easy but if I can save $4-5 for that one sheet and print it for $1.
Oooooh, that is a tough question. In all honesty, I love the vibrancy of sublimation; but I do not like to wear white. So, whenever I want to use sublimation ink on dark colors, of course I have to use a hack and that can be costly. Both have their benefits. With the DTF, I can use any color fabric and still get big, bold, beautiful results.
Thank you! It is my understanding that it is at least good for 50 washes. I have washed all of my DTF prints multiple times and I have not noticed any changes at all withe the color.
@@CraftingwithDelonda Very good to know. Thank you and thanks again for the awesome tutorial video. Your son has good taste in classic horror films. :)
This was so interesting to see I have not really got into dtf there are so many different great things that is coming out I cannot keep up but at any rate thank you for mentioning about the htv ront auto heat press because as you said when inserting a pressing pillow in your garment it really does help with the pressure I love my htv ront auto heat press. Great video ❤happy new year to you and your families
Hi Delonda, I am new to your channel and Cricutting, I just got maker 3, and easy press still in the boxes. I love your content and would like to watch more of your videos. Which video/tutorial do I start with for T-shirts prints using the easy press. Thank you and so much and Happy New Year.
I didn't even know this existed! Thank you for this video. It was great. I was getting ready to have to make 25 shirts with two colors of vinyl until you said they will make custom DTF transfer sheets for you. Have you ordered a custom one before? I was wondering about how pricey it was for an XL?
Hi there and thank you. That's a great question. I'm really not sure. I just always order the XL because I want the print to fill up my shirt. I would think a smaller size DTF print would be perfect for shirts up to size medium. I hope that helps.
Hi Delonda, I found ur channel recently when looking for help with heat transfers…I had no idea until this video that ur in Houston!! Been looking for crafting buddies near me, I’m in Houston as well! One of these days we should meet!! Kristen
Hi there and thank you! My suggestions regarding heat presses is to purchase a clam shell if space is a consideration. Also, get the biggest one you can afford.
Hiii🎉 can you help me, please❤ I am brand new to transfers and I went and purchased files from a seller on Etsy. I would like to know how to open these files and what to do with them. I currently have a Cricut Explorer Air 2, a regular printer and a heat press machine.
This answers my questions, I just want some shirts for myself (well I guessssss my husband and kid) I found an Easy Press for $50 on market place and just want to buy some transfers that are ready to go.
Is there a machine not so pricey that you recommend that i can purchase to use at home or you can only send the design off for someone else to print the dtf?
At the end when you peel off the transfer in our left with the film, do you put the film back on and press it with the Teflon sheet or do you throw away the film and just press it?
I noticed that you placed the sweatshirt sideways under the press. I had tried to press a handbag on a heat press and I couldn't close it. Should I press them sideways??
They have so much good stuff! They are fast and friendly. They even let you know when your stuff is on the way. I just love them and I have no complaints.
Hey (country woman )Dalonda question for you when you fold your hoodie(the ones without zippers)to find center do your pockets line up or wound that be a design flaw
Hi, Ms. Delonda I'm sorry to ask again but I have a currios question. Hopefully you might have some experience in this. Like I said I love to test things before I do big projects and like you I keep my eyes opened to anything that makes these projects easier and with quality. With this being said have you ran into anything besides the vinyle for creating small tedious lettering on tshirts that cricut won't eat through. lol. I have tried most of all vinyle but Cricut eats all small letterings so I have to use regular vinyle apart from the Sub and you know how that can be. More time and work. I seen the powder one you had done and I'm in question so got any good choices. besides all Vinyles. I do love Sub but which it could go on cotton with small letterings. I could you some advice, as I am testing many materials and other materials of choice. Thank you Tremendously for returning some inside information. You are the best, God Bless you and your household. 😃
Hi, Delonda I am Ms. Thompson I hardly email you but I'm a person who believes asking before buying or making, that's me. Anyhow, just FYI I actually live in Conroe Tx and some of my family are from Houston as I was in the past. I tell my mom it's funny we might run into each other, because as you know the we all say what a small world. 😁 I have a question on the video with Atlanta Vinyle, where you made the New Year same mess. The question is did you send off to have it made, because I heard you state you didn't have a printer for that so I assumed that's how you got this item. Oh and what is the code for Atlanta as I'm not good at electronics. I'm a Nanny so hard for me to use certain objects. I Truly Appreciate your videos, Thank you. Ms. Thompson

You’re very welcome 😊
Nice colors, HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY AND THANKS AGAIN FOR ALL THE VIDEOS AND ANSWERING QUESTIONS
Thank you! Happy New Year to you and your family ❤️
I have the auto press and it works fine with an extra mat under it.
That's awesome. I need to find a better mat.
Heyyyyyyy!👋🏽Delonda, How Are You Doing?Sis, Happy New Year!! 🎆🥂BEAUTIFUL!!!😍Thanks For Sharing, And As Always Stay Safe And Be Blessed!!🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

That is absolutely correct! They don't sell blanks that would be DTF film and in order to use that you would need a DTF printer.
I’m a newbie and I love your videos I have so much to learn from you
Thank you so much
I’m so happy I caught you live!!! Hey Delonda and chat!!!! 🎉
Hi @sharnette! Thank you for being here!
Thank you very much! (From Portugal)
That hoodie came out amazing! 🥰
Happy New Year! 🥳
Thank you!
Happy New Year!! I love this!! Just ordered this dtf. Thanks for the discount code and tutorial.
Happy new year!! You're welcome! Did you get the large size? I have never ordered the small one because I am not sure just how small it is.
@@CraftingwithDelonda I ordered the small one
I can relate! I live in Katy.
Hey there!
It came out good. Looks really is to do. Thanks for the info. Happy new year

That is awesome! I hope every company does...but you never know.
Mrs Delonda thank u for sharing your videos it helps me a lot. Love the hoodie
Thank you 😊
Great video! Love your positive energy and joy. Do you know how many washes it could last for?
Thank you! It is my understanding that it is at least good for 50 washes. I have washed all of my DTF prints multiple times and I have not noticed any changes at all withe the color.

Doing my first transfers today! Thank you for this video! Im freaking out a little lol
You got this!
Ur video was awesome love the way u went into detail
Hi thanks for the great video!
Are the dtf transfers only good for 1 shirt? Or can you reuse the same design on multiple shirts?
Thank you for the demo!
You're very welcome
Happy New Year sweetie love your videos heart
Thank you so much!
Looks so good on you!!!
Thank you so much 😊
Watching AGAIN!!!😊
Thank you 😊

Great job Delonda 👍👍
Thank you!
Love your Inthusiasm!
Thank you 😊
Love this. - I need that transfer for sure
Head on over to Atlanta Vinyl. I'm sure they still have it. I always order the XL size transfers.
Happy New Year
Thank you! Same to you!
Off subject but I am curious if I can use dtf on wood? I am definitely checking this company out thanks
Looks A-MAZ-ING! 😊 No fabric softener though...I’ll never remember to do that.😅😂🤣😂
🤣🤣🤣 thank you! I probably won't remember either.
You may have answered this all ready, but did you print your image with an ink jet printer? Thank you.
This is a transfer that I purchased.
I didn't even know this existed! Thank you for this video. It was great. I was getting ready to have to make 25 shirts with two colors of vinyl until you said they will make custom DTF transfer sheets for you. Have you ordered a custom one before? I was wondering about how pricey it was for an XL?
Glad I could help! I haven't ordered custom ones from them; but I trust them. You can also look for custom transfers from 143vinyl.com
I love it! So cute
Hi Delonda! I love your delivery method! I was wondering how do you determine what size design to get? Is there a cheat sheet based on shirt sizes?
Hi there and thank you. That's a great question. I'm really not sure. I just always order the XL because I want the print to fill up my shirt. I would think a smaller size DTF print would be perfect for shirts up to size medium. I hope that helps.
How do you prevent pressing marks around your designs? Sublimation, vinyl, etc??
You can tear the paper instead of allowing your machine to cut it. Also, you can use a pressing pillow and decrease the pressure.
Love you. Thanks so much for your vids!
You are so welcome!
Hi Delonda, I found ur channel recently when looking for help with heat transfers…I had no idea until this video that ur in Houston!! Been looking for crafting buddies near me, I’m in Houston as well! One of these days we should meet!! Kristen
Hi there, I have been in Houston since 1991 and I don't plan to leave any time soon! We shall see!
I order from Atl vinyl also and they recommend 300 not 325. Do you recommend 325 instead?
Do you live in Georgia? Because I live here! I love your videos! Today, I did the tshirt using the htv clear and sublimation, watching your tutorial 🥰
Thank you ❤️
I live in Houston.
hello! great video, what heat press do you reccomend if not the htvront?
Hi there and thank you! My suggestions regarding heat presses is to purchase a clam shell if space is a consideration. Also, get the biggest one you can afford.
This was so helpful
Thank you ❤️
Hiii🎉 can you help me, please❤ I am brand new to transfers and I went and purchased files from a seller on Etsy. I would like to know how to open these files and what to do with them. I currently have a Cricut Explorer Air 2, a regular printer and a heat press machine.
That’s really nice. Need to check it out💜
They are so easy! 325 for 15 seconds twice!
Going to have to check them out.
They are fast and friendly!
I'm gonna make something with my white toner printer soon!
That’s awesome!
It does look good on that hoodie and that color looks good on you. Sue C Brannon.
Thank you!
I am lovin your content girl!!
Thank you so much!!
Lol definitely can relate to the design going on the shirt 😂😂
❤️😊🤣🤣
This answers my questions, I just want some shirts for myself (well I guessssss my husband and kid) I found an Easy Press for $50 on market place and just want to buy some transfers that are ready to go.
That's a great deal! I love to order mine from Atlanta Vinyl because they are fast and friendly.
What do you have your heat press sitting on?
Is there a machine not so pricey that you recommend that i can purchase to use at home or you can only send the design off for someone else to print the dtf?
Oooo this is amazing 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you!
@@CraftingwithDelonda you’re welcome ☺️
Just started a new t business. Any advice would be helpful. Im ordering my transfers from a company.
Hi, do you actually need a DTF printer to use a DTF transfer paper or can I just use a normal printer??
There are hacks but the hacks don't include white ink.
At the end when you peel off the transfer in our left with the film, do you put the film back on and press it with the Teflon sheet or do you throw away the film and just press it?
I throw away the film and press it.
Great video I have to check them out. Thanks
Thanks for watching 💙
❤ I need that hot mess transfer
❤️❤️❤️
I noticed that you placed the sweatshirt sideways under the press. I had tried to press a handbag on a heat press and I couldn't close it. Should I press them sideways??
Yes, I would say to try it different ways, but just make sure you have even pressure.
I like those. I need to check them out
They have so much good stuff! They are fast and friendly. They even let you know when your stuff is on the way. I just love them and I have no complaints.
Hey (country woman )Dalonda question for you when you fold your hoodie(the ones without zippers)to find center do your pockets line up or wound that be a design flaw
😂😂😂 when I do fold them, I primarily focus on lining up the where the seam under the arm is and the shoulder seam.
Hi, sorry just FYI I got the code. Yay! Thank you.
Awesome!

Thank you ❤️ ua-cam.com/video/YVjRg4u7P0c/v-deo.html
So you buy the DTF pre-made from the Atlanta store? All you need to do is buy the shirt and use your heat press?
