today I was was wanted to sublimate on a stretched canvas from Walmart. I used my griddle to set the ink powder on the DTF film. While my griddle was still hot at 358 degrees I taped the picture to the canvas and turned it upside down on the griddle and wieghed it down for 40 secs. the results was fabulous. When it cooled I pulled off the DTF sheet and the print was perfect.
Hi, I just jumped over from the Design Bundles youtube page. I just bought dtf powder, blanks and even a swingaway heat press. Now I need to learn how to use them! Thank you for the great tutorials!
I just found your personal channel -- seen you on the DB channel before. You were under another video I was watching this afternoon and I wanted to see what you had for the DTF on regular printer ink. Glad to be here!! ♥
I have watched you for so long! When I have trouble or in a rut I can always turn you on and watch to be inspired! I'm so thankful for you! I was a design bundles member for about a year. I just couldn't afford a monthly payment and pay for designs. I miss it so much. So many great designs! I personally think your site has the best images etc. I encourage anyone who can to join. I love canva as well! You are a great instructor.
I coat "twice", once a few times back and forth sideways (horizontally), and once a few times up and down (vertically). This has really helped me not have any missed spots.
Another thing I found online about DTF powders is: It is recommended to always use proper protection, including gloves, eye protection, and the proper mask or breathing apparatus when working with DTF powders, as they can become airborne in the coating process. Businesses should not risk inhalation of the powder or extended skin exposure. Additionally, make sure that excess powder does not spread and contaminate other items during the powdering process.
I wondered about this. My cats were in my office when I was doing this and I noticed when I poured, some powder hung in the air for a second or was left on my table, which they walk on. Not taking chances after this! PPE , cats closed off from coming in & thorough clean-up! Thank you for sharing!
Love love love your videos, sooo much info and way better than other videos where you do the hacks tutorials and show the results all in one video rather than stretching over 2 or 3 videos. Thank you you’re awesome!!
I really like u you are a breath of fresh air especially with the social media platform having so much crazy content on them u make my day so thank you
I am 67 years old and just found your channel. I just bought a printer, heat press and sublimation supplies. I will be adding these items to my order. My granddaughter and are going to try and start a home business. Thank you for these wonderful hacks.
This video is really irresponsible by not using any PPE. You should use some latex or nitrile gloves when touching the powder, and a dust/painters mask, and goggles. The fine particulates are dangerous when airborne, and if you breath them in, congrats, you now have plastic in your body forever. The powder also off gases when heating up. She has no fume extraction at all. Those VOCs are in the air, not safe to be breathing for long periods of time. Look up Brother Earnest if you want to know more about the dangers of dtf powder. Sadly, he is currently battling cancer that has been confirmed to be caused by years of being exposed to the dtf powder and not using safety measures. He showed his endoscope video and he had powder caked on his esophagus. Not trying to scare you, just be safe.
@@pixelbat What are you talking about? She has a silent vent system in her craft area. And as she told you the DTF powder that she is using is made for low vent areas
@@EB.80 like 99% of dtf powders being used are marketed as TPU, which just means thermoplastic urethane, it's fine in it's sold cured state. What they don't tell you is it's made from a polyester resin, which when heated up can release small amounts of styrene monomer which is not safe to breathe, especially over a long period of time. If she is using a ventilation system it won't help since you need to extract at the source, and I didn't see a fume extractor there. They literally make fume extractors specific to dtf printing now. And the powder is even more dangerous in it's airborne particle state, not gas. When you're coating your transfer and moving the powder around, some of it gets kicked up. This is why you need a dust mask. If you breathe the powder in as a particulate that is micro plastic that will never leave your body. Can choose to be ignorant, or be safe. Up to you 🤷♀️
I was subscribed to you but didn't really watch. Then I saw you more on DB & fell in 💕 with your content so I'm just following you back to your channel & actually watching this time.
This channel is wonderful. I stumbled onto it while searching for sublimation videos because I am going to try to restart a clothing business I had started back in 2008 but had to scrap for various reasons. Back then the sublimation printer was brand new and super expensive and I didn't know you couldn't use it on 100% cotton and I had already bought hundreds of blank cotton shirts and..... just a whole mess. But seeing all these cool hacks and what not, plus the fair pricing of materials, it all seems possible again. I love your printing tips and your energy, and I feel like you and that entire room smell like cotton candy lol. Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much. I'm so happy to hear you're getting your business going again I wish you nothing but success. happy crafting and I love the cotton candy made me lol
I came from Design Bundles. I WAS missing you but I didn't know where to find you until I recognized you at the Silhouette new machine announcement this week! You looked great!! I was missing your sweatshirt so it took me a while to figure out where I knew you from. Hey, I'm old...I knew I should know you BUT... 🙂
@@YouCanTotallyMakeThat I am. I actually got to watch this video. I was able to go over it several times. Thank you so much for all the awesome information.
Hi! I am from SC. Glad that you are back, because I am so confused about DTF hacks and need more information on what printer to purchase in order to complete the DTF hack. I really want to print larger images.
CrystaAnn, I have watched all of your videos multiple times. I love the way you explain things. I will be following you on both pages. Thanks for all you do!!
Yaayy Crystal ❤glad you’re back. Yes I’ve been both waiting for you to come back but I also love watching you on design bundles 😊 another amazing tutorial as always. Stay blessed love 🥰
Crystal thanks for the videos what I like about you is that your honest and straight to the point! Looking forward to more videos. Thank you for all you do.
This was all a lot of great information! I love my Sawgrass Printer and I learned several new things from you today. I very much enjoy the way you do your videos and look forward to watching more. I did find you on Design Bundles.
Yay! so glad your here and your have a sawgrass printer stay tuned there a big updates coming to sawgrass next week eeeekkk also I have a fun sublimation video with 3 projects next week
From the Design Bundle UA-cam just found out on there you had your own channel which I am so happy about! I am from outside of Vancouver BC Canada.I grew up in Ireland. Enjoying your channel! Thank you for sharing hugs Liz x
I tried a wash and tumble dry test of sublimation DTF on white cotton... I noticed that 30C wash inside out was absolutely fine - no issues. However a tumble dry even on a low setting left the print dry, and cracking. So I think I'll add "wash inside out with similar colours - max 30C - Hang dry only - do not tumble dry" - Would be great to see what results you get with washing and drying :)
Ive tried this over a dozen times and i got this to work great on light colors but with black on a cut an offset on white HTV im still getting a smug look on my designs and idk why...its soo frustration. Thank you for all your videos it does help a lot of us newbies.
You're so welcome thank you for your support. I think with the HTV thats comes along with with I to have a slight bleed or blurred edges not 100% crisp I wonder if we used another substrate print setting so it prints less ink ? I need to test this more
Thank you for all of the great videos! you are such a great teacher! I always watch you on Design Bundles and your channel when you are on. Keep up the great work you do!! ❤😘
Nope, not yet. I don’t have a sublimation printer (yet!), but I’m excited about what you said about regular inkjet ink (black). I’ll have to look into the dtf paper and the powder!
Hi Crystal, I am new to your channel and I truly love how you do test on these items. Helps us all alot, thank you for your wonderful videos. I think we are all looking for the best alernative to dark shirts. Sure, helps and hey I read on the spray you were using with Dyepress and apparently they came out with a new one that only is one spray bottle without using two sources. It's called Dypress poly T Plus, or I think pro. You might want to check that out. Less work! Lol.
CrystalAnn Thank you for all of your videos, I tried using my Epson 2760 and the DTF Film would not pick up the film no matter the way I tried it. So what did I do but buy a sawgrass 500 printer, set it up today and printed the image and it came out beautiful!!! I am so excited to continue making my projects. Thanks again!
Have you tried the DTF Hack?
Not yet! I'm saving up for that Sawgrass 💰💰
@@UpTillDawnCrafting Sending positive vibes to your Sawgrass savings fund 💰💰
I have all the supplies but still haven’t tried it yet!
@@April-rs8gz You will love it and be hooked once you do
No, I dont have room for another printer. For now i am using the DTV.
Yes Crystal I Would Like To See You Do The DTF Sublimation Hack On A Black T-Shirt,Thanks!
today I was was wanted to sublimate on a stretched canvas from Walmart. I used my griddle to set the ink powder on the DTF film. While my griddle was still hot at 358 degrees I taped the picture to the canvas and turned it upside down on the griddle and wieghed it down for 40 secs. the results was fabulous. When it cooled I pulled off the DTF sheet and the print was perfect.

It’s just like using embossing power for scrapbooking and cards ❤️ always work in a well ventilated area

Yay!! your going to love it I have had shirts with over 20 plus washes with no issues still
CrystalAnn Thank you for all of your videos, I tried using my Epson 2760 and the DTF Film would not pick up the film no matter the way I tried it. So what did I do but buy a sawgrass 500 printer, set it up today and printed the image and it came out beautiful!!! I am so excited to continue making my projects. Thanks again!
