SUBLIMATION ON A MUG USING THE CRICUT MUG PRESS | BEGINNER TUTORIAL

The Cricut mugs are really nice but I hate that they slapped their logo on the bottom which means I can't sell them to customers.

Also, in my experience, to avoid ghosting, you want to put a stop to the heat as quickly as possible. Some people put their mugs in water to shock the mug into stopping the sublimation process, but I've found that a trip into the freezer for 10 minutes stops the sublimation VERY quickly and then you can peel off the design relatively easily. I've never had a ghosted mug doing it that way. I wouldn't recommend letting it sit at room temperature because the sublimation will continue until the mug drops below the temperature required to start the sublimation.

Just a minor FYI. :)

How do we not waste th rest of the page of sub paper ? thank you

Ok, did not expect that the Silhouette software to be this shitty. Cricut design space is so much easier to work with. You have to spend so much time to make the image fit on the mug properly, while in design space you would be done in 3 mouse clicks

oof. I'm new to cricut stuff. I was hoping to use the mug press to make custom mugs off the drawings I do... but I only have an inkjet printer... do... do I need a whole different printer ENTIRELY to even make custom designs.....??? i'm commenting cause I cant find info anywhere on if I can just use the printer I have or not as I cant afford to purchase a sublimation printer..

Thanks for sharing!

This is a very detailed video on how to do it. Thank you very much Kayla!!!

Can i do sublimation with the circuit expression. I’m new to all this and want to make my son a mug. Ive had the machine for over 20 yrs and used it once 17 yrs ago

I bought silicone wraps for wraps and do not have butcher paper. Would it be ok to just use the silicone wraps on top of the sublimation print?

so you have to have a special printer for this?

Can we put in twice. It looks like one side isnt on the hot plate. Can I restart it without taking it out and just moving the handle slightly?

What is the process using sublimation for photos to be put on mugs.

Why sublimate on one side of the mug? I do not like one sided sublimation.

Thank you for this tutorial this has helped me so much, as just starting out on sublimation, have you uploaded the printer settings for Windows please as would like to set the Sub Printer so i don't have to keep changing thanks

If I design any of colours then can the sublimation printer print the same different colours by only 4 ink that it use

New Sub Here 🖤🌙

is there any vids out there on how to put brought designs on mugs already do u put the pic face first of what

So how big is your image??

Can I use any printer with sublimation paper ?

is there another mug press your using now ? is there one which can print alot more different sizes?

thank you for your advice on the timing on the mug press.

Do you reuse your butcher paper?

Hi, i have a epson 2800 printer and tried to press an image to my mug with the heat press. Ofcourse i used sublimation paper, came out fine. But the image never transferred to my mug. is that because I needed sublimation INK? i used regular inkjet that came with the printer lol

Hi Kayla I love your videos. I would like to know what sublimation printer do you recommend? I have the cricut mug press but would like to buy the sublimations printer rather than using the infusible ink. Thanks in advance for your tips

Can I print the image with a regular printer ?

I knew I could do sublimation on these but had to watch someone that’s did it before with awesome full details that shows the right way so thank you …off to make my mug !! ☺️

Can I use cricut to design it before print ? 🖨 or what app you use ?

where did you get this design? it is adorable!!

Hi, Can I use any printer machine or do I have to use a certain type with the cup machine?

Can I use the Kodak photo sublimation printer with the mug press? Would that work with it? Thanks

Thank you for this useful tutorial! I did not understand which program you used. Could you please write it?
Thank you in advance!

Thank u for taking that time to show me. Perfect pace of explanation. There is another video on sublimation video that an expert commented on their video that show the exact temp and time and what to do so it does not yellow or ghost. Its a new video how to sublimate on cotton.

Cute

Thank you so much for helping me to find the self-confidence to go for it and I am finally brave enough to get crafting with my Cricut fun stuff🤗 I have a few different machines by Cricut but have been too shy and lacked the courage to take my artistic genius to the next level. But after watching a few of your very thoroughly clear and helpful videos, I am now getting my hands back into the groove of creation and I am so so so grateful to you. So again, thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️

Can this work with a ink jet?

Thanks for another excellent tutorial! How do you avoid faded spots where parts of tape covers image?

Can I ask what Program you are using instead of cricut

Can I sublimated a cricut mug with regular heat press machine?

Can used parchment paper ? Or dose it have be Butcher paper

Your video saved me!!! Thank you!

On a side note, I used a real photo. The face came out 3 skin tones darker than the original. Any suggestions so I dont waste another mug?

Have you ever done a long..full width of the cup image where there are no gaps? i have a different mug press and i can have the image come upto maybe 1cm away from the hand both sides BUT the ends are still more faint as if the heat is not enough on the ends of the mug heat plate..and i do not want to shrink the image so it is even further away from the mug handles as then it starts to look silly. if you have and you have had the image maybe 1cm both sides of the handle is the ends of the image crisp

I have a printer but can’t get it to work 😭

How did you do multiple colors

Is the sublimation permanent or does it fade with time?

Does this peel off with time? Or is it infused

Hello there! Very useful video.
Can I use sublimation paper on regular printer inkjet with regular inks?Thank you!

Great video. Are you able to print gray using silhouette?

Do you have to use cricut sublimation mugs ? Or can you use any sub mug ??

Thank You 😊

You didn’t say that you must print the image mirrored.

Did the image need to be mirrored at the program?
