This can be because the first side ends up overcooked when you flip them. You can do them both at the same time if you line it all up on the press and do both sides at the same time.
Nice! Yes I've done two different pictures on the front I put a picture of my daughter and her husband and on the back their boys and it came out great.
Ah great suggestion and link to a silicon pad to replace mushy one. Now where did that amazing green cutting mat come from and what size? I see you have the white Yukon tool storage. My wife has that one for her crafting and I'm jealous. Also, is the Creative Fabrica for real - asking $47 yearly normal price $348 or is this some kind of bait-n-switch too good to be true thing?
Thank you so much for watching! Here is the mat that you see in the video. It is 18" x 24" amzn.to/4a8i3fa The most recent one that I bought was the same size but a little less expensive amzn.to/3TNd0LC it's purple on one side and pink on the other, but you can get it in another color option. Yes, I love my Yukon cabinet and less expensive than the Husky ones at Home Depot.
I saw where you were not able to find the design link but now I can't find your message. Maybe you ended up finding the design and deleted the post? If not, here is the link to this designwww.creativefabrica.com/product/stained-glass-wind-spinner-2/ref/1340608/
Thank you for sharing. I’m going to get the epson 15000 and my heat press press is on its way. I love your butterfly design and can’t wait to make one.
Those colors are so vibrant 💜 I've had these in my amazon cart for awhile but wasn't sure how they'd look, def ordering them cause that came out really cute!!
Yes, you'll just have to be careful not to shift the paper while moving the press around. It might be a little darker where you overlap the print with your second press. They also make 8" wind spinners if you would prefer those. Thanks for watching.
@@MakingwithMarilyn right no need to flip and helps prevent over cooking on one side that can affect colors. You can't tape it down to the paper though, but I find if I print them centered and lay the bottom sheet down and then get the spinner lined up and put the top sheet on top you can tape them to the pad so that it doesn't shift when you are closing the lid.
Measure the diameter of your wind spinner at its widest part and then make the part of the design that you want to show up slightly larger. If you want to use a circle in your software to mimic the wind spinner to see how the image would fit in it, you can do that. Thank you so much for watching!
How do I make a 10' windspinner on a regular printer? Also did your blank have a protective film on it. I for the life of me can't get mine off so I'm not sure if it even has one on it.
The wind spinners that I have only work with sublimation ink. I don’t know how you would be able to do them with regular ink, unfortunately. Mine did have a protective coating and it was really hard to tell that it was on there.
Great Video. I am so happy to see you used the HTVront heat press for this. I already purchased the new mat so now I feel confident in using it instead of my easy press. Also, you referred to someone doing both sides at the same time. Did you experiment with that yet? If so, how did you tape down your images and temp and time? thank you so much .
I have a wide format printer, the Epson Ecotank 15000. It prints up to 13" wide and so you can use 11 x 17 paper or 13 x 19 paper. It's not intended to be a sublimation printer but a lot of crafters convert the Ecotanks by using sublimation ink instead of the ink that comes with them. Of course, this can void your warranty. This is the one I use: amzn.to/3yNx7B5
I tried the heat tape to remove film I tried shipping tape and a heat gun. I could not get it off. I pressed it low heat nothing so I pressed it with design somehow it came out great
I buy mine off of Amazon. It is for Epson Ecotanks and you put the sublimation ink in the printer instead of the ink that comes with it. I have a video showing (or 2) showing the process. amzn.to/3ZVR8iM
I just found out about these. Very cool! So when you download the image you have to print it out obviously. I actually went to the Creative Fabrica site and there was a sample download. I printed it but it's on regular printer paper and was too big. The image was cut off. As I've never done the craft your doing, do you use larger paper or a special printer? Sorry for the newbie questions!
I cut this at somewhere around 10 inches in diameter. I had to use larger paper since regular size is only 8.5 inches wide. I printed the image from a printer that has sublimation ink in it and I printed it on sublimation paper. Thanks for watching!
From past experience, (it's been a few years) everything that I sublimated on ceramic tiles and aluminum panels using the Sawgrass printer and inks faded miserably after being outdoors for a few months. I would love it if the Epson sublimation inks didn't do this.
TH-cam has a feature where I can have it translated to Spanish, but it asks me Spanish (US) or Spanish (Mexico). I don’t know which would help you the most. Which do you think?
I am learning how to do this. I brought the Epson eco tank for sublimation.but I put the ink that came with it. How can I make this printer a sublimation after I made this mistake.
I have never had to drain my ink and start over, but I have seen other people talk about it. Go to TH-cam and search for "removing the ink from an epson ecotank" and you will see videos explaining the process. Good luck with it. You will love sublimation when it's over.
Marilyn is this the printer you have? Epson EcoTank ET-15000 Wireless Color All-in-One Supertank Printer with Scanner, Copier, Fax, Ethernet and Printing up to 13 x 19 Inches, White Thanks so much for all your GREAT tutorials.
I used Koala brand paper on this. The link to it is in the video description but here it is for convenience. They have various sizes of paper. In this video, I used a large size due to the size of the print. amzn.to/3sl8Qjc
It is a metal with a sublimation coating. I have an Amazon link to it under the video. But, you have to use a sublimation printer to make the design. Thank you for watching!
Yay!!! I'm so glad it worked for you. When I tried it on this wind spinner, I really didn't think any would come up b/c I really didn't think there was any plastic on it!!! Thanks so much for watching!
Looks great but I have read that sublimation ink will fade outdoors. Is there some kind of special coating to provide UV protection? Or will it take a long time to fade? Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experiments!
Oh no!!!! CrystalAnn has done both sides at once, which might work better for you. I didn't have your experience and I'm sorry you did. That is so disappointing.
It's a wonderful process where you ink actually infuses into whatever you are putting it on. But it requires special ink and special blanks. I have a lot of videos on it if you want to check them out.

Great video. Thanks for tip on removing the film. Beautiful.
You're welcome!!!
Thank you for this tutorial. I just tried to do some, but for some reason one side, I find it is a little yellowish. Any suggestions?
Possibly over cooking it but I'm not too sure. What colors were in the design?
This can be because the first side ends up overcooked when you flip them. You can do them both at the same time if you line it all up on the press and do both sides at the same time.
This is absolutely gorgeous!
Thank you very much!!!
Marilyn I love your design I love butterflies and sunflowers beautiful video. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you! I really love this image.
Very Pretty - I just ordered wind spinners. Thank You
They are so much fun to be able to customize to your liking. I hope you enjoy them!
I need one of those in my garden or somewhere in my yard! Turned out so beautifully, I love it!
Thanks Tracy!!!
See, you do learn something new everyday. SUBLIMATABLE, sounds good to me, lol! Thanks for the video also.
Too funny!!! Thank you so much for watching.

Marilyn, I love spinners and have been away from Sublimation for a few months now, so I was super excited to see your video! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much! Yes, these are so fun and easy to make. I plan to make some for family members for the summer.
I love this Marilyn great job with the sublimation. I see the difference in the ink left on the paper.
Thank you Gloria!!!
Your spinner turned out awesome! Love the image you chose! Great step by step tutorial.
Thank you Barb!!!
Very cute Marilyn, I will have to make one for my Mum
Thanks!!!
🥰😍Very Nice Marilyn!!!! Thank you for the Tutorial!💥💯👍
That is so pretty!!! Thanks for the tutorial!!!
Thank you Charlene!!!
Sooo pretty! I want to try it one day! ❤️
Thank you! They are really fun and easy.
Hi Marilyn
That is wonderful. I always like your work you do such an amazing job.
Thank you so much!!!
Thank you for sharing. I’m going to get the epson 15000 and my heat press press is on its way. I love your butterfly design and can’t wait to make one.
Do you know what sublimation ink you will use in it? I really love Hiipoo but there are so many nice inks out there.
That turned out beautiful! im going to try making one for the first time..hopefully it turns out good..
I hope it does as well! I'm going to make another one with fall colors in the near future.
Those colors are so vibrant 💜 I've had these in my amazon cart for awhile but wasn't sure how they'd look, def ordering them cause that came out really cute!!
Yes, I was really happy with them! Good luck with yours.
What was the temperature you used on the HTVRONT??
385 degrees is what I used.
That image is so beautiful
Thank you Tracy!
Beautiful! Very nicely done. ❤
Thank you!
Great job👍I watched Crystal Ann's video as well
Thanks Nicole! I still need to go back and see how she did both sides at one time.
Those wind spinners are really nice
Thank you Kevin!
That’s beautiful. I was wondering how those work.
The second one looks just a tad crisper, but they both turned out great! See what you've done, something else I must try. Can't wait.🖖.😁
I was looking at the Wind Spinner yesterday and it really is so beautiful! If you try it, I hope you enjoy it!
I love it! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you Coretta!
what if I dont have a heat press and just my cricut easy press 9x9? Can I still do a 10" wind spinner?
Yes, you'll just have to be careful not to shift the paper while moving the press around. It might be a little darker where you overlap the print with your second press. They also make 8" wind spinners if you would prefer those. Thanks for watching.
I love it! Almost magical!❤
Thank you Mary! Yes, it turned out really nice. Can't wait to see it in my backyard.
I do the line up on the press and do both sides at the same time approx 80 seconds at 385
I should really try that. So you don't need to flip it?
@@MakingwithMarilyn right no need to flip and helps prevent over cooking on one side that can affect colors.

@@Tricia.Ricotta thank you!!!
Good video thanks looks good I gave 15.00 for mine they are powder coated uv protected for 5 years
Thank you Jessie! That sounds like a great quality wind spinner.
Turned out beautiful! How do I find a template for this wind spinner if I want to use my own design?
Measure the diameter of your wind spinner at its widest part and then make the part of the design that you want to show up slightly larger. If you want to use a circle in your software to mimic the wind spinner to see how the image would fit in it, you can do that. Thank you so much for watching!
Of course I need to make them!!!
I hope it goes well for you Carolyn!

The wind spinners are not available on Amazon. Does anyone have any tried and tested suggestions please?

By mistake I put a different design on the back of one. Oh well!
Thank you for watching!

Thank you so much!
I just got my sublimation printer. Do you have any tips on setting it up?
Congratulations!!! Which one did you get?
You mentioned a printer that was “bigger”? Can you clarify that? I bought the 10” not considering my printer will only print 8 1/2 “ 11”.
I have a wide format printer, the Epson Ecotank 15000. It prints up to 13" wide and so you can use 11 x 17 paper or 13 x 19 paper.

No problem Jean! The Epson Ecotank that I used has Hiipoo Sublimation ink in it just in case you were interested.

It's a wonderful process where you ink actually infuses into whatever you are putting it on. But it requires special ink and special blanks. I have a lot of videos on it if you want to check them out.
