I love how simple and clear cut (no pun intended) you made this! Hopefully I can do an awesome job with my bridesmaid glasses thanks to this video!
Yeessss thank you so much. Just ordered a bunch of vinyls for my bridesmaids and can't wait to customize their wine glasses.
Hi can you please tell me where you ordered the vinyl please, im doing my sisters wedding champagne glasses too
@@anafigueroa9635 I ordered mine off of Etsy, search for custom vinyl name stickers/decals :) it’s been so long I can’t remember who I ordered through
Thanks I have the most difficult time applying some of these for my bridesmaids . This is very helpful
I wish I watched this video before I put my vinyl T_T The trimming as close as possible to the text and the slits would have really done the trick for me.
Will it be scratched off by nails? Or do you have to add final touch? Like clear coating on decal surface or heating the decal? Thank you.
will this be dishwasher safe? how do you make it dishwasher safe if it isnt?
No, it is recommended to hand wash the glass once the decal is applied. There isn't any way to make them dishwasher safe. They are just decals.
Hi Kristi thank you for your tutorial and all you answers all question below :)
Thank you! This was so helpful.
Where can I get a vinyl decal made? I have a company logo in mind that I want made into a vinyl decal so that I can stick it onto a glass globe.
Thank You 🙂
You should be able to find a shop on Etsy. I am no longer creating decals.
What transfer tape are you using?
Hey, I have my own business and am thinking to use vinyl stickers to label my product. I would be labelling a 1oz black frosted bottle. Can you give me some advice on what I need to buy or any tips whether it would be a good idea to use this method on the black frosted bottles? I am going to be making some face oil. I am not too worried about the vinyl coming in contact with water. Do I need to purchase a special printer for this vinyl method? I would like to do gold metallic decal on my black bottles, so would I purchase the gold sticker paper? You response would be highly appreciated! Thanking you kindly ☺
New at this, haven’t started yet I am trying to get all the info as possible. I don’t have a circuit machine so I purchased vinyl stickers to start out, do I need vinyl and trasfer tape or just transfer tape?
Hi! It will depend on vinyl stickers that you purchased. Did they come with transfer tape on them?
@@kristinelson2655 I am not home right now I can check then but I don’t believe so
@@kristinelson2655 no they did not. It only says vinyl stickers nothing about transfer tape or transfer paper in the description
@@jennifercalderon2288 I would have to see the stickers to know if it needs transfer tape.
That was good do you have one for a ring I get one side of the ring on and a big bubble it there
Kristi, is it possible to create these decals without a cricut machine? How do I print my design onto the decal paper?
Does this work with images on decal too?
Not if the image is printed on a clear sheet of vinyl. It will wrinkle. You will want to use a straight sided glass.
Is the vinyl permanent or do you have to seal it?
The vinyl I use is for outdoor application on signs and vehicles. It has what is called a permanent adhesive. But, they are just stickers and the letters are usually pretty small. It is recommended that you hand wash the glasses paying special attention to the area where the decal is applied as heat will soften the adhesive and the wash cloth can snag on it and peel it off.
Can you kindly tell me how big your design is on a standard wine glass? Thank you.
Usually 2" x 2" works best if you are new to applying decals to curved surfaces.
Where do you get the paper to make these wine glass decals? I want to make my own with my silhouette cutter but not sure where to get the paper.
The transfer tape on top of the decal? I get my transfer tape from Sign Outlet Store. You can get transfer tape from anywhere that sells the decal material.
I'm confused I want to start making decals is the vinyl that u apply to clothing different from the one u apply to glass
Yes, they are two very different materials. You use heat transfer vinyl for fabrics.
Did you use anything to curve your font?
Hello,
What equipment did you use to make the vinyl ? e.g printer, type of paper ect
Dunno if anyone can help me but the vinyl is full out stuck to the paper and I've used a credit card to try and press it down :(
It''s not working.... Any help would be greatly appreciated
If I'm gonna start making glasses with lettering on them and sell them. Should I make my own vynil lettering ? Or where can I buy them. With beautiful words like hello beautiful blabla... help lol
If you are going to be making a lot of glasses, you will want to purchase a vinyl cutter like a Cricut or Silhouette. You can get them at craft stores and online.
Thanks a bunch. If I only have the glass. What and what do I need to make the lettering. The vynil. I'm new to this but I'm planning on making them. And starting my own business.
It is best to do some research online for starting a vinyl decal business.
Hello, i like it! Can u tell me which program and printer to make these glasses please? I really need ur help
The decal was created using Adobe Illustrator and a 24" vinyl sign cutter.
Can I find this vinyl decal paper at staples or office max? I’m making some mirror invitations.
You can get decal material at Michael's and Hobby Lobby. You will need a vinyl cutter to cut the design in the decal material. The craft stores also carry the vinyl cutters. If you need someone to create the decals for you, you can contact me through my Etsy shop at: www.etsy.com/listing/118839920/custom-decals
No, these are cut vinyl decals using Oracal 651 vinyl and a vinyl sign cutter.
How do you get the small font to come off the sheet of vinyl so clean. We are having trouble. Like the letters are not fully cut or something
Hi! Is your decal already weeded so it looks like the decal in the video?
We figured it out thank you for your quick reply. I adjusted the depth and it's weeding much better. Thanks so much
Where did you purchase the decal from ?
I made them! Here is a link to my Etsy shop: www.etsy.com/shop/KristiStickySigns
They all fail to tell you its for decoration only. If you wash in hot water it comes off. So not fit for purpose
If you hand wash the glasses, the decals will stay. It is not recommended to put them in the dishwasher.
If you are using a quality permanent vinyl as used here hand washing shouldn't be an issue. It's not recommended to allow them to soak or use abrasive sponge. This type of vinyl is on our Jeep, on my boutique windows withstanding hot summer days and winter blizzards.
Something I did recently learn that may have been the problem, vinyl adhesive has a shelf life. So if it's been sitting in a warehouse and then your craft room too long you may not have the same quality adhesion.
Where did u get the vinyl leters
I made them! I have an Etsy shop at: www.etsy.com/shop/KristiStickySigns
+Kristi Nelson did u makin different saying like "hello gorgeous" just small sayings
Yes, I can make different sayings. All of my decals are custom made. There are limitations to the size of letter I can do and the intricacy of the font.
+Kristi Nelson how much the 2inch of hello gorgeous im going to put on my acrylic brush holder
What paper did you use?
The top cloudy layer is transfer tape. It allows you to pick up the entire decal at one time.
Dishwasher Safe?
Hand wash is recommended. Do not soak in hot water or scrub lettered area. I have a couple glasses that I put in the dishwasher as tests and they are doing ok. I have lost a couple dots for the letter i but the lettering is really small on that particular one. To be safe, I would hand wash.
What vinyl do you use? I have a Cricut and the vinyl is not sticking to my glass.
Oracal 651. Are you using rubbing alcohol to clean the glass first? Make sure it is completely dry.
Kristi Nelson yeah I cleaned the surface. I managed to remove it but it took me a long time to do so. 😓
Oh! I thought you were having trouble getting the vinyl to stick. Not to remove it.
Kristi Nelson oh no lol yeah to place it on the glass. It took me like 20 minutes to finally stick to the glass.
Oh goodness! Could there be some type of film or coating on the glass?
where do you get the vinyl at?
I create the decals in my Etsy Shop here: www.etsy.com/your/shops/KristiStickySigns/tools/listings/118839920
The vinyl material used to create the decal is purchased from a sign supplier.
Thank you! This was so helpful!
Everyone else treats these videos like some kind of performance that takes 20 minutes to explain. Thank you for being so to the point!
You are welcome!
