    Glad you mentioned removing the plastic that comes on the blanks 😅 I was questioning it.

    How much fun! Uhhh…hate to tell you this BUT purchased a basic sublimation printer, the ink, paper and its all in the box…STILL. Lol. Its so passive aggressive and I know I have to take the step to at least unbox. If I wasn’t a therapist, I would need one. Lolololol. You look great, by the way. Love your eyebrows!!!

      You can do it Sarah! I seriously had mine for probably 4 months before I touched it, so you're definitely not alone! Thank you so much! :)

    Watching the end on replay. Did you get your EasyPress clean? While it’s hot iron a dryer sheet. It will clean it amazingly plus smells amazing!😉…also set a dryer sheet in the base then place easy press on it. Will remove residue in it as well!👍🏼

    thank you for the tutorial. curious why you don't use the teflon sheets. and what kind of tape are you using? it looks clear, i thought we had to use the yellowish tape that usually comes with the paper. thx

    • @DIYAlex
      @DIYAlex  9 місяців тому

      You don't use teflon with sublimation because if the ink bleeds onto it and you use it again, you can transfer the ink to more projects!
      I'm using heat resistant tape. It comes in several colors.

    hello, great video ! I tried doing a few double sited keychains just like the ones on this video and when I was going to flip to do the other side it was bumpy. Is this too much pressure on? also the image quality look darker. Thanks so much

    • @DIYAlex
      @DIYAlex  2 роки тому

      It sounds like you have too much of something- heat, pressure, or time. Try some different settings and see if that helps.

    If you compare the cost of replacing the ink cartridges for a printer, Sublimation ink is really not that expensive and you get so many prints out of those bottles for your money

      You can see the process of sublimating a keychain in this video. Here’s how you create a design for sublimation in Canva:

    • @DIYAlex

      Make sure that your printer doesn’t have a clog in another color. Then you can adjust your colors some in your printer settings under advanced!

    Omg I am so glad I came across your video. I got these same keychains ans can't for the life of me get the right size for the dog bone and house. Would you pretty please share your sizes with me. TY

    • @DIYAlex
      @DIYAlex  2 роки тому +1

      I believe for these I used the smallest photo size that my printer offered. It was like 2”x3”! I had it in my printer settings.

    Can I use a mini cricut press for the keychains?

    • @wendybabendy
      @wendybabendy 2 роки тому

      It may not get hot enough - you do need a fairly high heat (350-400) for the ink to fully sublimate.

    • @DIYAlex
      @DIYAlex  2 роки тому

      Technically you can, but it will be more tricky since you don’t have exact heat settings!

    Can you use infusible ink transfer sheets on these blanks?

    • @DIYAlex
      @DIYAlex  2 роки тому

      You sure can!

    • @wendybabendy
      @wendybabendy 2 роки тому

      Yes, because they are essentially the same idea. Infusible ink is just Cricut's proprietary name.
