Hi from Australia Jan, I'm so glad I found your channel, such practical information and very useful for all my craft projects. Stay safe and looking forward to your next tutorial. 😊😊💕💕
Thank you Jan for ALL your videos, they are so good and very clear. I wanted to ask where did you get your cotton spool holders on the wall behind you - its so neat!
Thank you Jan for demonstrating which transfer paper you prefer but the COMPARISONS too 😊. Very much appreciated. I’ve already purchased dark & light heat transfer paper & not used either yet. I will try over the weekend and let you know how it turns out!!! Thank you for sharing. PS. I just love your labels especially the lower case ones!!!
I use transfer paper but I don't wanna if it's the correct one. Cuz I love to draw alot so I use transfer paper. But I use wayyy different brands. I never heard of these. Than all of those..!! Thanks alot !!
I wish you had made a spreadsheet with all the information it would have made it se much easier to follow. Maybe you did this….if you did, may I have copy please. I want to make some labels and I can’t afford try all these brands.
I do have a spread sheet for this. You can locate it here youmakeitsimple.com/2022/03/27/top-4-heat-transfer-papers-for-making-custom-labels/ Scroll down to the photo of the spread sheet and you can get a printable PDF. Have fun making labels
Hi Jan, thank you for all of this helpful information! I was looking for the link for your video about printing on dark fabrics like you mentioned, but I can’t seem to find it. Would you be able to help me locate that video? Thank you so much!
How about transfer paper that dissolves/dissolvable transfer paper, will the inkjets work with transfer fabric paper that dissolves work in these inkjet printers too?????
Fascinating and very helpful. What are your thoughts about using on a bowl cozy that would be in the microwave 2-3 minutes? Do you think the laminate would melt or catch fire? I'm wanting to label items that are NOT microwave safe because they contain Insulbrite. I think a label from the June Tailor product will be ideal. Thanks again! I'll use your affiliate link to purchase.
@@JanHowell My thoughts, too. I've been experimenting with applying clear contact paper (Dollar Tree) to fabric with my laminator. The contact paper is thinner than actual laminating plastic. Thinking about printing directly on fabric and putting contact paper on both sides. I'll give it a try soon - sew with it, wash/dry, and let you know. My order of June Tailor paper will be here in a couple of days. Had no idea you could put it on ribbon. You shared some terrific information. Have a good day.
Hi, Jan. A follow-up. The clear contact paper did not protect the ink when printed on cotton. Thought I would let you know. The Tailor product will arrive tomorrow and cannot wait to try it, using your tips. Thanks again for posting.
I saw a quilter that had what I thought was a label in the center of her quilt back. I messaged her on the how to but never heard. I thought it was a great idea to be able to do that on a few quilts. Do you think she might have used an ink transfer? It was not embroidered. Thanks
Could you please tell me why do my prints always go to the color of the tshirt that I press it on ? I have tried transfer paper and print it on a purple, pink, brown so far.
Are you using transfer paper for dark colors instead of white? That may be the issue. They are two different things. You may find this post helpful. youmakeitsimple.com/2021/06/17/how-to-use-heat-transfer-paper-no-mirror-image-needed/
@@JanHowell thank so much for taking time to address my issues. I’m using the correct papers for each color, and my prints don’t come out right and vibrant. Do I need to install a software that may can fix the issues? I am very new to this, thanks again
side note: you seem so warm and kind. like you give good hugs. 😭
ahhhhhhh, you are so kind!

You'll have to check the transfer paper instructions for that.

I would not recommend putting laminate in the microwave!

So informative! Have you tried “NUFUN” brand?
Not yet!

Yes, most likely.

can i use this paper in normal home printers?
Yes. Just make sure you are using the correct paper for your printer type. Laser or inkjet.
Got a video for laser printers?
I don't, sorry
How did you create the labels to print? Did you use a website?
No. I use a graphics program
