Even though this was a year ago, someone recommended your videos in a Cricut beginner group today. I am so happy they did. Thank you so much for making this understandable and taking the time to talk about other issues while it was sublimating!
Updating to finish my statement "If it puts lines on your print." The first thing to do is to reset your ink levels. If it looks like you have plenty of ink, just reset the levels. This usually fixes lines and off colors. Subscribe, and I'll be adding more specific videos, such as ink levels and cleanings. Thank you for watching. Blessed
This has to be the most relaxed explanation on doing tumblers. I am way overthinking this. Thanks for the video.
Thank you, and also, thank you for watching. I truly want to be helpful. I enjoy making Tumblers so much.
Yes she’s super cool!
Thank you so much. Got me blushing ladies... 😊
I don’t know how you cut so straight so fast with scissors. Lol Impressed!
It's 3 years of cutting these out by hand. I have two paper cutters, one with a slide and one with an arm, but it's more convenient to cut by hand for me. I'm lazy and don't want to get up from my chair. Lol
I like this... you make me feel comfortable
That's great, I would never want you to feel any other way. Thank you so much for watching.
After many wasted cups i stumble on your channel and get my first perfect cup! Thank you so much 💕💕
That's great, and it's my goal to help fellow crafters before they get too discouraged and throw it all out the window, like I wanted to more than one. I'm super happy for you. 🙂 Thank you for watching. 🙏
@@shellistumblers it's crazy because I've watch many videos and all of them tape top and bottom each time there was some kind of issue. I try your way one time and wahla. Less is more.
Amen to that, it truly is... 👍 😁😎
Very nice
Thank you for watching. 😊
Shelli, thank you! You changed my life! lol All the video's I watched was stressing tight tight tight, I was using tons of tape and time but still getting ghosting. With the 3 pieces of tape keeping ends flat I am getting perfect tumblers every time.
AWESOME!!! I love hearing this. I appreciate your commenting and watching. It's game-changing when you change your focus to flat.
I finally did it. No ghosting, turns out I was letting it go past the top rim, very slightly. Now I pay better attention.
Good deal! It makes a difference. Thanks so much for watching.
Your Video is the best and just did a tumbler no ghosting for first time
Awww, thank you so much, I'm excited for you. Thank you for watching.
Great video
Thank you so much. I hope that you found it helpful. I appreciate you watching. 😊
Great tips. Love the cup! Thank you!
You're welcome, thank you for watching.
Thank you for sharing. I used your technique and I havent had anymore ghosting. I ruined so many cups
Thank you for watching. That makes me very happy. I enjoy helping and appreciate your feedback. I'm excited for you.
Thank you great presentation, I just bought a tumbler couldn't do it with a mug press. So I'll follow your direction.
Thank you for watching. Please come back and share your results. I enjoy making these cups so much.
Thanks so much!! I have been having issues with the ghosting at the ends.
The struggle is real, but hopefully, this will help you. Please come back and update us on your results. Thank you so much for watching.
What seam?!?! Looks great!
The only way I can usually find my seam is where the two sides meet up at the bottom. I have a hard time getting them the same exact length. One is usually a teensy bit longer than the other. That's how I find it on full wraps. LOL
Thank you for watching and for commenting. 🤗
WOW, I have been taping the heck out of my tumbler and getting ghosting on the top and bottom.
I’m going to try this on a couple tumblers I messed up just to practice on.
Thank you for watching. Please do come back and update us on how it works for you.
How do you keep the interior of the press free of spillage? Do you use parchment paper?
I have never used any in 3 years and never have had spillage or what I call bleed? Sublimation ink only adheres to polyester. Sleeves are silicone.
What kind of press are you using? Thank you for explaining how to do sublimation!❤
I apologize for the delay. I tried looking up the invoice for my press to no avail. I can't find it in my history search either. I bought it when they first came out with the 20oz presses. There is no information on the press itself either. I would recommend reading reviews and go with a press that has several good reviews.
And you're welcome, I enjoy helping.
@@shellistumblers Thank you much!
Does your 20 oz tumbler fit inside your press or does it hang over. Without wrapping any bleed paper around your cup doesn’t it get on your press
My 20oz fits. I can also do 30 oz, but I prefer to make 20 oz. I have never used any bleed protective papers. I have not had even one issue without it. No discoloration inside of my press either. Thank you for watching.
My bottoms come out great, the tops not so much. Do you have any suggestions? My press only has the one knob to adjust pressure.
I'm sorry that you're struggling with the tops. Something you can try is putting a silicone band around the top and press your Tumbler top end only for about 45 seconds, turn it and press for about 20 seconds, take it out, tap off the band, and then press the Tumbler like I show in the video. I have never seen a press with only one adjuster. 🤔 That could be the problem, it's definitely a possibility. I apologize for the delay in responding. Please let me know if the band helps. I love feedback, the good and the bad. That is how we learn.
What if you're using a convection oven? Would you still not tape top and bottom of tumbler?
Great question, If you click on my name, it should take you to my channel. My first video was using a conversion oven with a masking tape wrap. I do, however, now wrap them like I do in this video, but I use about 6 silicone bands over the wrap. Be sure to subscribe to my channel, and I'll do a video with the bands next. I apologize for the delay in responding. Thank you for watching.
Hello ladies when I use the oven I don’t tape the bottom nor top, just the seam and I use the tumbler wrap and they come out great! I don’t use the heat gun either, the oven does it! Enjoy
Thank you. 😊
Like to have setting
Press setting is 355⁰ Fahrenheit
I'll do a video short on printer settings and share the link here.
Here are printer settings:

Any ideas in what to do with oops cups I would hate to throw them away
Thank you for watching. You can burn off the image and then choose a darker design to sub over them. I'll do a video on that in the future. I first began my journey making Epoxy Glitter Tumblers, so that is what I do with them. They have kits on Amazon for beginners. I paint my "Flub Subs" and then glitter and Epoxy them. If neither are something that you would want to do, Facebook has a group called "Happy accidents". You can post them for sale. I don't know what they go for, but people who do Epoxy Tumblers or those who like to burn them and resub them will buy them from you. 🌞
@@shellistumblers thank you so much for the helpful advice. I found the group and will look into trying some glitter tumblers I honestly am afraid of epoxy but am willing to try. Thank you for being so nice and helpful! Going to subscribe now!! 💕
You're very welcome. I will do Epoxy tutorials in the future, but right now is my busy vendor season, and they take time. My favorite videos to watch for beginning Epoxy Tumblers is Tumbler TV. Her early videos from her garage are so simple and explained so well. She answered questions in a live as she made them. She is Glitter Chimp glitter creator.
Wish this worked in oven. That paper would roll right off. If I ever get a press I will follow your direction
I have a video wrapping the paper with just masking tape. You could also do just as I have done here in this video, except add 6 silicone bands around your tumbler, making sure that one is flush with the top rim and one with the bottom rim. Either method works great.
I do ovens at 370 for 5 to 6 minutes.
That’s what I do now is what you show in your other video. Wrap the whole cup in painters tape. I find painters tape holds a tad better than normal masking. I cook at 350-360 5-6 minutes. I do turn not sure it’s worth that extra step. I also plunge in cool water so I can remove tape without biting fingers. I’m going to try and not wrap SO TIGHT and see what I get. I always kill my hands wrapping.
Thanks for the tips
Make sure to not overlap the top or the bottom, and try wrapping them with your painters tape, but add the bands, even if just at the top and bottom? I prefer the bands with the air fryers and ovens. I would also increase your time a little too see if that helps?
When I use my air fryer I do 400 degrees for 6 minutes, so it shouldn't hurt at all to increase your time.
