    Hi Lori I’m so happy to see you doing videos with the Sawgrass sublimation printers. I just purchased the Sawgrass SG400 back in July. I absolutely love it. The biggest image I can print is 8.5x14. That’s without their bypass tray. With the bypass tray I could print an 8.5x19. I haven’t ran into an order that would require me buying the bypass tray. So excited for your tutorials using this printer.

    • @craftingwithhwm
      @craftingwithhwm  Před 4 lety

      Hello Crystal! That’s wonderful and I love my printer too. It’s been so nice being able to make my own signs. I’m glad you enjoyed the video and I will do more tutorials in the future. Thank you for watching, Lori.

    Hi, Thank you so much for making this video. It was made a year ago and I just wondered if you still recommend the 15” swingarm heatpress? And I was wondering where you currently get your sign blanks if you dont mind telling me? I learned alot from you and appreciate your helpfulness and honesty so much. Thank you!

    • @craftingwithhwm
      @craftingwithhwm  Před 2 lety

      Hi Kim! You are very welcome and I’m glad it was helpful. I do recommend the 15” swingarm heat press but there are lots of other great ones also. I also found that the Cricut heat press works too if you’re on a budget. For the blanks, you can try Smartblonde and Signchicken. The full list is only available in my paid design group as it took me a lot of time to find all of them. Thank you for watching, Lori.

    Do you have a video on how to sublimate on metal signs for the cricut maker?

    • @craftingwithhwm
      @craftingwithhwm  Před 3 lety

      Hello Jane! Unfortunately to do sublimation, you would have to buy a Sublimation printer. The only Cricut item you can use is the Heat Press which will save you some money if you have one. Thank you, Lori.

    @marshaforsberg6889 Před 4 lety

    Do you have a list somewhere that tells us beginners what all is required to make signs? I’d get a Sawgrass then forget a heat press, or something? Can I do sublimation with a Cricket?

    • @craftingwithhwm
      @craftingwithhwm  Před 4 lety

      Hello Marsha! The things you need are a Sublimation printer, Heat Press, and metal blanks. The printer comes with ink and paper to start you out and when you run out then you would buy more. I will be honest with you about it being an investment. I paid close to $1,000 to get everything I needed. And you can’t do Sublimation with a Cricket cause it has to be a Sublimation printer. I hope that helps. Thank you, Lori.

  • @deloriscorse1939

      Hi Linda! The only reason why you would need a business license is to shop wholesale for supplies but I don’t think it’s worth paying for one if you’re just doing crafts as a hobby. I hope that helps. Thank you, Lori.

    Curious, how would you get a sublimation print on a phone case or other odd shaped and different types material?

    • @janwilliams3841
      @janwilliams3841 Před 4 lety

      Usually the back of the phone case where you put the picture is flat, you press it and them attach it to the case. For solid items, you need a 3d vacuum heat press.

    • @craftingwithhwm
      @craftingwithhwm  Před 4 lety +1

      Hello Margo! For Sublimation printing, you can’t use glass or plastic. The Sublimation blank has a special coating to fuse with the ink. Thank you, Lori.

      Hello Nicole! Sawgrass is just a brand of the printer and Creative Studio comes with it. If you don’t have one then you would use another software to do your Sublimation signs. Thank you, Lori.

      Oh no the Sublimation signs require a Sublimation printer but you can use a Cricut heat press instead of other kinds and it works for that. Hopefully that makes sense. Thank you for watching and please remember to like and subscribe if you enjoyed the video, Lori.

    Hi Lori, Yep it's me again. I was wondering if you took orders for special made signs? I have a creation I did and was wanting to get it on a sign to make a wreath. I have it saved in my Microsoft Publisher file. I can also send the file as a jpg...which ever works. Let me know. I'm sitting here bored out of my skull, so I got my brain to start creating. It's popping with ideas! Thanks for any help you can give! From Marleta

      @craftingwithhwm  Před 4 lety

      Hello Marleta! Right now I’m not doing custom signs because I just don’t have the time with everything going on with my family so I wish I could help you. You can print the image out and modge podge it onto a wooden sign. Like if you have a sign in your stash from dollar tree, you can paint over it with white paint and it becomes a blank piece of wood. I hope that helps. Thank you, Lori.
