This video was outstanding. I’m just getting started with sublimation and all the other stuff and you are MY GO TO PERSON. I’ll check out other videos but ALWAYS test it against what you say.
If you're watching this video and reading these comments, stop scrolling... you've found the best teacher and source for crafting information! I've been watching her for over a year! I'm so thankful for this channel! Today is no different... Great sublimation tips!!Thank you, Delonda, for keeping it real! ❤️❤️
I second that Delonda you are the best. I don't make a decision until I have checked to see what you are saying about it. Thank you for this video. I'm still deciding on which printer to get.I have the epson2850 that I use for print and cut, and I have been seeing the ET3850 at a reasonable price. Would that be a good printer to convert ? Thank you as always for all that you do and show us all. 😊
Alrighty then Dr. Ford, you are my go to, for easy to follow instructions and the kindness and patience you show in your videos, and not afraid to make and show your mishaps... Thank you so much❤
You are Awesome Delonda! When my wife and it got started with sublimation we were just as confused as you mentioned in your video because of all of the videos on CZcams. One of the first things I did was to go and find a White Paper on Sublimation and then I found a White Paper on The History of Sublimation. WOW, was I amazed with the difference how the garment industry performs sublimating fabric vs. Crafting with sublimation. I soon realized that a lot of CZcamsrs were in fact giving their opinions instead of Facts. We always love watching your videos because you do the research and present the material so well. Thank you and keep up the great work.
This is why I love you so much. You are always honest and real. This video was super helpful for me to decide that sublimation is not for me. I may dabble with infusible ink and my mini easy press but that is it. You have saved me tons of money and headaches. 😂
Can I just say how happy I am to have found your channel? Your knowledge and ability to explain clearly combined with your humor is unmatched. I'm a hobby crafter who has decided to jump into sublimation. I have my Ecotank printer and all the supplies, an Easy Press but have an HTVRONT heat press and tumbler press on the way. My She-shed/Craft Room should be finished by Christmas so I'll be ready to get everything all set up to start playing in the New Year. Thank you for helping me out on this journey!
Just ,love this info AND your sweet personality. So informative and HONEST, which I appreciate immensely! I did recently purchase an Epson Eco, but am really considering running out into the (literal) freezing cold weather tomorrow to grab some infusible ink supplies to start there first! I look forward to taking your advice and having a blast crafting in my free time (and snow days ahead!)
❤❤❤❤ you are the best ever. Every time I watch your videos on tutorial, premiers, and the live and the helpful tips videos you do. I’m learning soooooo much. 🥰🥰🥰 THANK YOU!
I am at the infusible ink stage but I am watching all your sublimation videos before I make the printer commitment! Not in any hurry either! Thanks for reminding us that it is okay and it does seem like everyone has jumped on the sublimation bandwagon.
Thank you for everything Delonda❤ I truly appreciate all of your help with these crafts, I have all the supplies now but have not started yet. God bless you!
That would be you! You are my number one go to person. Thank you again for sharing this information. I have been sublimating for the last year and didn't know that I should download the drive on my printer.
@@CraftingwithDelonda Thank you so very much. I’m still listening to you explaining that you don’t do one on one support to crafters. I receive it with love and gratitude. 🙏🏽. Take care of YOU. I respect ✊ that about you.
Delonda!!! I cannot thank you enough for this video!! I was finally able to set my printer settings correctly, by downloading the correct drives!!! You rock!!!! I appreciate you soooo very much!!! ❤❤❤
Thank you sooo much for sharing your settings. OMG I needed that! If you haven’t already can you do a video on what application you use to print your images for sublimation, and do one of your world famous tutorials ? You are a GREAT teacher. I appreciate you!
It's honestly not hard... there's a lot of things to remember, but once you get into it.. it's not hard at all. Just like everything else. Ty for the video! As always, your awesome!
Delonda, girl, you just shamed the devil. 🤣 Let the truth be told! Thank you for sharing. I come from DTG, DTFand a little bit of white toner printing. Although sublimation is limited as far as not having white ink, sublimation doesn't seem so bad. 😆
Hi Delonda. I love your tutorials they are so easy to understand, thorough and you have the best personality! I know you already have done two videos on using htv vinyl for dark fabrics but I can’t find the information in your video and only trust you with my question. I am selling these shirts so I wanted to ask if the HTV font for dark fabric washes well after many washes? I know you loved the print of this process just wanted to know how washed
Hello from Richmond, Texas, everything you mentioned in this video is correct, I didn’t even know about Sublimation, I started with Infusable Ink, and felt in love with it then I saw a video about Sublimation and I was hooked, I have not been successful with DTF, my printer doesn’t like it, I will keep on trying, it could be the rollers because I have try everything else.
I sure wish I had seen this back when I first got involved because I was clueless. Lol this is a great tutorial. I would have saved my money and probably gone the DTF route lol I’m not a white shirt fan. 😊 Excellent tutorial Thank you for sharing
My brain is on overload 😮. So many great tips on this video. Still trying to understand the most basic on how to handle the software. With that say I will continue to view your informative videos. 🌴😉
Love your videos and couldn't agree more with you. I'm at the point though with sublimation that I just have trouble on dark fabric or for customers that want a cotton shirt done. Such a pain. Any tips?
This is why i havent syarted sublimation yet. I cant afford it. Lol. I have had my cricut 2 1/2 years now, got a swing away heat press for htv, and infusible ink sheets and pens. Im good for now. I do love your tutorials alot. You share great info!
@@CraftingwithDelonda Any information would be great! Your designs are so awesome, so I was under the impression that you sold your crafta on Etsy or at craft fairs.
Nicely done! Thank you for all the great video's you've shared * especially with us newbies*. LOL Question please. ET-2850 on board barely used hippo ink filled, 3 months old Asub paper used also printed like a charm when perfecting skinny tumbler craft. As of late after several attempts to print via Canva or Drive, my green prints print out dark lavender. Ink well is still almost full.. Any advise please? Thank you
Thank you ❤️ I suggest printing some yellow and blue (cyan) purge sheets. First do a head cleaning and nozzle check. After that, keep printing yellow and blue full sheets of regular paper until the color comes out right.
Thank you for the excellent video! I recently did an Epson Ecotank printer conversion to sublimation ink. I purchased the Htvront sublimation HTV for dark fabrics. I tested a sample of black knit fabric and the adherance is fine but it looks dark. Then I tried using a layer of regular white HVT, the Htvront and then the sublimation ink on top of that and it was better. Is this normal? Does it always take 3 layers?
Thank you so much! It doesn't always take three layers if you use the HTVRONT for dark fabric, you should be able to do it with 2 layers; but remember that is still a hack.
Delonda - can I layer HTVRont Sublimation HTV for Dark Fabric over each other? I messed up on my shirt (the sublimation image didn't turn out right) and am wondering if I can just press another layer of it on top of the existing one.
I going try your channel. I'm brand new. I know aboustle nothing about this but I'm give a good try. I being looking at lot people like you try try to teach and I like above them all. I believe you are the real deal. How do I join your group
I make bags and purses,and embroidery and I make Mr clothing so if I can do those things I can try and do this with your help and guidance in sublimation. I'm not into blinking yet but sublimation have caught my eye
I like ASub also. I did a shirt the other day using htv ront for dark then sublimation and it was hard because I didn't cut the image smh but it worked.

Epson is great for using as any printer. It uses so little ink! I have 2 of them. One for everyday and one for just sublimation.
@lindabradford9591 I have thought about getting one just for every day stuff. I totally agree.
I want to thank you for this video. I am one of the ones who don’t start believing the industry is saturated.. “everybody is doing it”…
Thank you

Great video! Especially for someone who is just coming into sublimation.
Thank you very much!
Thank you Delonda for the lesson this help so much I thought it was me having the issue thinking that sublimation was hard to do.

Ok Delonda… my Christmas gift is getting all the SEVEN things for sublimation! I hope I don’t regret it 🤦🏻♀️
I don't think you will regret it at all. If possible, get the butcher paper from Sam's club. They have a huge roll (1000 ft) for less than $30.
It's honestly not hard... there's a lot of things to remember, but once you get into it.. it's not hard at all. Just like everything else. Ty for the video! As always, your awesome!
Thank you ❤️
Hello Delonda Thanks for sharing this video with us

😂😂😂 thank you ❤️
thanks Demand this was so helpful
You're welcome.
Autocorrect did my name really dirty 😭😭😭
Great info! Thanks for the inspiration! How do you prep the shirt? Wash or just lint roller?
You're very welcome. I just lint roll and put butcher paper inside to protect the ink from going through the front and back.
Love this video! ❤
Thank you!!

Do you like the EPson ET 15000? I want a bigger print size. I have a 2850 and the ASub 125G makes Runs of ink on paper.
I love the ET 15000. If I would have had it first, there would be no need for the 2760.
Can you still print regular projects on that printer 2760, like print documents
You can, but I don't. I only use that printer for sublimation now.
Delonda - can I layer HTVRont Sublimation HTV for Dark Fabric over each other? I messed up on my shirt (the sublimation image didn't turn out right) and am wondering if I can just press another layer of it on top of the existing one.
I don't think it's possible but I have been wrong before.
@@CraftingwithDelonda I tried it and it worked :)
Delonda, I just got my Sublimation Printer and I crossed the Black and Blue in the ink well. Will my printer still work?
Oh no! I am not sure.
I have one question.
Is it possible to purchase something to treat a stainless steal tumbler sublimation?
I am not sure. There are sublimation coating products, but I have not tried any of them.
Oh & I ordered it under your Amazon link except I got the ET-15000 😅

My Facebook group is called Cricut Crafting with Delonda.
I make bags and purses,and embroidery and I make Mr clothing so if I can do those things I can try and do this with your help and guidance in sublimation. I'm not into blinking yet but sublimation have caught my eye
Great video. Sublimation IS hard. 🥴 we're having issues with our black ink spreading/running. Any idea why that might be happening?
Thank you ❤️
Only the black?
Do you allow your print to dry before pressing?
@CraftingwithDelonda Yes I do. It comes off the printer like that then looks worse after pressing. 🤷♀️ I'm baffled because it's only the black ink.
What's is the purpose of butcher paper on sublimation, please?
To protect your heat press from ink
I’m not here yet. This is advanced.
Start with Infusible Ink.
@classylady
Hi Delonda youll figure it out in no time,I finally created the Cowboys and Eagles glitter file
That's awesome!😅
Thank you I'm never gave up, although it took me 3 days 😂 but I did it Suga mama D🎉
Hi there
How do I get rid of heat press marks on my polyester tshirts ,even after preheating them and then after washing they are still there😕
Oh no! Decrease the pressure on your heat press and tear the butcher paper instead of cutting it
thank you:) @@CraftingwithDelonda
On when you say let me show what my printer settings look like are you going to your printer ? To show us ??
I showed you my printer settings. Did you miss that part?
Love that shrit
Thank you ❤️
I’m having a hard time it’s not vibrant. I’m using hippo because I’m using hippo Inc.
Check your drivers and your printer settings. The image will not be vibrant until after it is pressed.
I like ASub also. I did a shirt the other day using htv ront for dark then sublimation and it was hard because I didn't cut the image smh but it worked.
Glad it worked out. I only use A-Sub unless I'm in a pinch.
