Jennifer's video tonight could not have come at a more perfect time. My daughter came home tonight and asked if I could make car coasters for her to give as gifts for several of her coworkers for tomorrow. I told her if she would wait til after Jennifer's video tonight I could do them. They came out great!
I Want to thank you very much for sharing all these crafts to keep me busy. I lost my Mother in Sept and this is keeping me sane. I made these coasters they are awesome
Another great tutorial and love the images! I found a local person to make sublimation prints for me. I mainly make t-shirts and mugs for my family. I wish I could justify the cost of all the equipment.
So cute!!!! I love watching your videos, but I haven’t gotten into sublimation. I can’t imagine what the cost would be to get started. Thank you for sharing.
Can you put a coating onto the ceramic coasters to make them sublimation ready? Are there any polymer coatings for crafting purposes? I think your coaster critters are adorable.
To make an image template of a shape blank so it conforms to that shape, here are the steps you can follow: Select and Erase Background: Ensure you have your "select and erase" icon selected. Click on the background of your image to remove it, making the background transparent. This will allow the image to conform to the shape you want. Use Contour Tool: Select the duplicated layer and click "contour" to control the individual cuts in a layer. In the pop-up window, click the "hide all contours" button. This will hide all contours except for the shape you want to use. Create a Guide Shape: With the shape selected, click the dropdown menu under "operation" and choose "guide" to turn it into a guide shape that you can see through. Arrange and Resize Photo: Click the eye icon to unhide your photo, then click "arrange" and "send to back" to move it behind everything else. Drag your photo so it fits within the guide shape. Resize the photo by dragging a corner handle in or out until it fully fits and fills the shape with no canvas showing on any side. Drag a bounding box over the photo and the guide shape to select both, then click "slice" in the layers panel. Delete the guide shape and the slice result containing the portion of the photo outside the shape.
Sublimation works best on surfaces that are either made of polyester or have a polyester polymer coating. Diatomaceous earth is a natural material and does not inherently have the polyester content needed for sublimation. Therefore, you would not be able to sublimate directly onto diatomaceous earth coasters unless they have been specially coated with a polyester or polymer layer that can accept sublimation ink.
I've been testing ceramic ornaments today.. I'm getting vibrant colors and the black ink is very black - looks great HOWEVER, the white ceramic itself keeps getting a very light, subtle brown tint to it. Any ideas why this is happening?? I'm stumped!
You can post photos and ask for help in the group so people can see. Also here is a blog post that may be helpful. facebook.com/groups/sublimationmadeeasy jennifermaker.com/sublimation-color-problems/

The live was fun! These designs are so stinkin' cute! I don't have any tools or materials for sublimation, but I love to learn new things! Tfs❤
Thanks, Jennifer and team! I am getting my courage up to try sublimation and this was so helpful!
I’ve made coasters before but not by sublimating. These are adorable
They make Great gifts and they are very cute! Thank you for teaching us hugs Liz x
Looking forward to this video, I bought some coasters for sublimation a few months back along with ornaments. Time to get busy 😊
Have fun!
Learned so much at the live party that this just tops it off.
I bought round cork stickers to put on the bottom of my ceramic coasters, really nice to slide around on my coffee table.
I made most of my Christmas gifts using this process. I love to sublimate ❤
Today's presentation was awesome.
Glad you liked it!
I love all the cute animals just so cute 😍 thank you for the tutorial
I love the little fox on the square coaster
You are a brilliant artist, I loved it.A new friend here from Brazil 💚💛💚💛 Congratulations👏👏
These would make great gifts! The ideas keep coming! Thank you Jennifer! Colette
Glad you like them!
Love this. I’ve wanted to make coasters for my car.
It was very easy to make with great instructions. I made a few neoprene coasters for gifts.
That's great!
I love watching all the things! I don't have sub printer yet but hopefully soon!
Such cute critters
Lovely...learnt so much from your channel
Glad I made in time tonight. Hope everyone is doing well.
The animals are adorable!
This is great! I was struggling with making some memorial ornaments and had the heat all wrong! Thanks for saving my project!
Glad it was helpful!
I’ve never seen sublimation so I really wanted to watch this 😊
Wondering if you can do this the the mini press?
Great live today, I've been holding off doing this, but now I think I am ready. Thank you Jennifer.
You can do it!
beautiful coasters. great christmas gifts.
Excited about learning this technique
I have made some of these and they came out looking pretty good
From Minnesota
Thank you for the great tutorial. Very cute designs.
Would the process for the ceramic coaster be the same for ceramic car coasters?
I use the Cricut square coasters for cold drinks and the ceramic ones for hot beverages
Another great tutorial and love the images! I found a local person to make sublimation prints for me. I mainly make t-shirts and mugs for my family. I wish I could justify the cost of all the equipment.
Very cute designs. I do not have a sublimation printer, is there a way to do this and the hoodie with regular ink and sublimation paper? Thanks
Check out our blog, we have lots of shirt tutorials you will find helpful. 😊🌻
great tutorial, glad I ordered the cricut coasters, thank you Jennifer.
Have fun!
Awesome video
They are so beautiful ❤❤❤
So cute!!!! I love watching your videos, but I haven’t gotten into sublimation. I can’t imagine what the cost would be to get started. Thank you for sharing.
Hello everyone I have been waiting for this one!❤
Hope you like it!
Love them
Thanks Jennifer ❤❤❤
Fantastic! Thank you Jennifer 🩵
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks, Love the cute little penguin.
Me too!
Love this video! 😊

Yes, you can use the process we used here- jennifermaker.com/ceramic-tile-map
Would love to have the print and cut feature, maybe I could win one or in the spring ill upgrade my daughters explorer 2, enjoying this video,
Super cute designs!
Thank you! 😊
My Cricut Easy Press won't go above 365 degrees - is this because I have the size below you? Thank you again for a great video!
Good evening, everyone
So cool
Can you do all 4 at once with the 9" X 9" easy press or with the HTVRONT or is it better to do one at a time?
You can do it either way as long as the pressure and surface is the same.
I have a question. If you have other shape blanks. How can you make an image template of that blank so it will to that shap
To make an image template of a shape blank so it conforms to that shape, here are the steps you can follow:
Select and Erase Background: Ensure you have your "select and erase" icon selected. Click on the background of your image to remove it, making the background transparent. This will allow the image to conform to the shape you want.
Use Contour Tool: Select the duplicated layer and click "contour" to control the individual cuts in a layer. In the pop-up window, click the "hide all contours" button. This will hide all contours except for the shape you want to use.

Drag a bounding box over the photo and the guide shape to select both, then click "slice" in the layers panel. Delete the guide shape and the slice result containing the portion of the photo outside the shape.
Hi, I'm new to sublimation and would like to check if I am able to sublimate my designs on diatomaceous earth coaster?
Sublimation works best on surfaces that are either made of polyester or have a polyester polymer coating. Diatomaceous earth is a natural material and does not inherently have the polyester content needed for sublimation. Therefore, you would not be able to sublimate directly onto diatomaceous earth coasters unless they have been specially coated with a polyester or polymer layer that can accept sublimation ink.
Hi everyone from Kansas.
Watching the replay.
Very nice
Have you subliminated on polyester and/or cotton rope coasters? I'm hoping to find guidance on how to do this. Thanks!
I have not. You can request that here. jennifermaker.com/projectrequests/
@@JenniferMaker Request sent. I can provide you with a rope coaster sample if needed.
Thank you so much!
You're welcome!
If you print from DS will the image still print at 300dpi? I thought someone told me the print quality is lower printing through cricut .?
Design Space's resolution maxes out at 144dpi but the pdf is 300dpi.

How can I avoid MDF coasters from warping after sublimation? Thank you.
You can press them from the other side at less heat to help bend them back. jennifermaker.com/how-to-sublimate-coasters/
Very cool
Thanks!
Yes ma’am
