I've used the Make Market vinyl in white and brown HTV because I wasn't able to find those colors in other brands. I too felt it ironed and washed well. I had gotten mine on sale. Usually have trouble with the cricut brand glitter and metallic. It never seams to stick the first time around. But was glad to see that you took had an issue with the Make Market glitter so I don't know if it is just the glitter texture. But I would definitely buy the Make Market again when it's on sale.
Corrine another great tutorial, thank you for all the testing and reviews you do! I have tried the Make Market permanent vinyl that I bought at Hobby Lobby and I did not like it because the vinyl stuck to the paper backing.
I will talk from experience because it's the only htv i've used so far. I found it cheaper than others ($5.99 on sale) so it's the reason i bought it. At first i was like lost because couldn't find no video online to help me with the settings and the pressing. So i just tried different things on my own. I gotta say the vinyl holds pretty good i tested 2 hoodies to see how they'll look after washing/drying. One of the hoodies i've put through the dryer like 3 times on high heat and i haven't noticed any crack or peeling on the vinyl. After a few months i wanted to try multiple layers but again couldn't find any video about it so i had to do it on my own. I made 3 projects 2 hoodies and a shirt. I was impressed with the results because i thought it wasn't going to work. I will try to get a different vinyl that is better for the price but for now i'll still use this brand it's pretty good. Tip: since it's warm peel after a press use a shirt or some piece of clothing to help with the cooling process. Give it a second press to secure it. I use a firm pressure. Also it works with the HTVRONT auto press. Though i used an aditional heat pad for more pressure.
Another thing i forgot to say is that i have used all of them at 290° (haven't tried puff yet) for cotton and polyester. And when doing multiple layers i do around 5-8 seconds depending on how many layers and around 12-15 on the last part. So far i've tried doing 3 layers and works pretty good.
Nice review! I have a couple of Make Market matte ones that were on sale a while back at our Michaels (🇨🇦) but haven’t tried them yet. General question: can carrier sheets be reused?
@@CorinneBlackstone That’s great - I’ll keep in mind for my next iron-on project. Haven’t done much glitter iron-on yet but thanks for pointing that out, too!
For me no I haven’t noticed a difference but honestly if it works for you and you see a change go for it! I’m all about doing whatever works best for you.
I am glad I came across your video.. You explain things better than others I have watched. I'm trying to make shirts and things as a hobby job not a side job. I also have the same brand vinyl, first off my backing is white not clear. So I got transfer paper And now the vinyl won't stick but if I do it with the white back without transfer paper it's sticky and I can't get rid of it. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong! Any thoughts?
I’m not sure what you’re doing either. If it has a white backing and the vinyl is sticky then you are using adhesive vinyl not htv and that’s not for shirts.
@@MsMstngldy2003 permanent vinyl is not for fabric it is for hard surfaces like cups glass wood etc. not to bash Michaels but 9out of 10 times their employees have never touched a craft in their life and truly don’t know what they are doing. Which like fair but it’s frustrating for us as customers. You need to use a vinyl listed as iron on or heat transfer vinyl (HTV) if you want to put it on a shirt

Thank you for the review. I also used your trick on flipping the design instead of mirroring. It is a game changer, thank you!

This is so cool! You're a pro!

Great review as usual. I purchased the Make Market HTV puff and have yet to try it.
Thank you! I gotta say I really like the stuff for what it is.
@@CorinneBlackstone You're welcome ❤
Nice review! I have a couple of Make Market matte ones that were on sale a while back at our Michaels (🇨🇦) but haven’t tried them yet. General question: can carrier sheets be reused?
Yes I wouldn’t reuse the glitter sheet because any loose glitter will stick to your next project but the other sheets can be reused again
@@CorinneBlackstone That’s great - I’ll keep in mind for my next iron-on project. Haven’t done much glitter iron-on yet but thanks for pointing that out, too!
One more question, if you have a moment. Do you find that puff vinyl puffs better after a 2nd press IF you wait for it to cool first? Thanks again!
For me no I haven’t noticed a difference but honestly if it works for you and you see a change go for it! I’m all about doing whatever works best for you.

@@CorinneBlackstonesays permanent vinyl. Lady at the store says it was correct
