How to Sublimate Glass in the Cricut Mug Press & PYD Life Tumbler Press
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 30 มิ.ย. 2024
- PYD Life has come out with a HUGE range of glass you can sublimate on, and they hooked us up with a wide array of samples so we can show YOU how to sublimate on glass. We turned out sublimation station on full blast and had so much fun trying out the PYD Life clear sublimation glass, frosted sublimation glass, shimmer sublimation glass and even color-changing sublimation glass! They have so many different shapes, too - from tumblers to wide mouth jars and more.
We tried sublimating the glass in the Cricut Mug Press and in the PYD Life tumbler press, and we show you how to sublimate glass in both machines--including two different methods with the tumbler press.
All of the sublimation materials we used are below!

It was so nice to see such a variety of glasses that you were able to sublimate. Everyone of them looks so good. BTW... since you dont appear to sell the neat stuff you make, we would like to see what your kitchen cabinets are like. 🙂
😆 yeah, ok. The cabinets do get crowded but they go through a culling on the regular. Also, we do keep some things slated for presents to crowd other people's cabinets. Share the love 😁
Awesome!! We have those blanks too! Love your works!🥰
Thank you! Cheers!
Awesome video!! I can't wait to try it! Can you share the link for the jar with handle? Thank you!!
Hey! Thanks for watching - we're so glad you enjoyed it! Sorry we missed that one - it's included now. 😀
Hi! I loved this video, do you have the link for the first glass beer mug you used? Or could you tell me how many oz it is?
PYD Life Sublimation Glass Blanks Mug Frosted Glass Tumblers 22 OZ Coffee Beer Mugs Cups with Handle for Cricut Mug Press and Tumbler Heat Press 4 Pack a.co/d/8vY2Qni
I'm sure this is the one you were referring to. Thank you for watching!
I will need to see what is available in the uk to do this. Xx
Someone makes something available over there meant for this, I'm sure!
Thank you for your video😊
I’m not sure if it’s because it’s 1am, but I can’t seem to read what’s the link for the frosted beer mug ☹️
Took us a minute to find this.
Check this out! a.co/d/gPwqdqZ
Thank you for watching!
This is excellent! What about HTV... Can l use heat transfer vinyl?
Hey! We’ve heard of people using HTV on drinkware but haven’t tried it ourselves. Sublimation is our preferred method!
After watching your video I'm confident enough to make my first frosted beer can :))) May I ask where you purchased your "Welcome to the Firepit" imagine from?
Hey! We’re glad you like the video! That one can be found here: designbundles.net/diyxe/1817622-welcome-to-our-firepit-camping-sublimation?ref=PiheTd
This may be a silly question but would you recommend that same heating time in a tumbler press with 3 turns for an unfrosted 16 oz glass can?
You should refer to the manufacturer for time and temp considerations. It also matters if you're doing a full 360 design or not. With the 16's we've had experience with, we used 1 turn, but that can change as well on the overall dimensions of the 16oz. We would recommend having a spare one or two for the testing and learning curve. Hope this helps.
cool👌
Thanks!
Hi! Can I inquire as to how long you set your timer for with the cricut mug press and the glass? Thanks!
A lot of sublimation glass pieces range in time and temperature. Ours was 180 seconds, but check with the manufacturer for their tolerance. Thanks for watching!
Hi Both - do you know what the temp settings are on the Cricut mug press i.e. first setting 120c? second setting 200c etc. I either melt my polymer cups or I don't do them long enough. Someone told me to do polymer, they need to be pressed at 165 for 100sec's.
Hey! Thanks for your question. There’s no way to control the temperature on the Cricut Mug Press, unfortunately. We’ve found that it automatically adjusts the time depending on what you put in it, but there’s no direct way to control over either the time or temperature.
Thank you so much for this! I’m glad I found your channel😀I have had problems when I sublimate with the color not being as vibrant wherever the heat resistant tape was. How do I prevent this?
We try not to place heat resistant tape over the design. If you have to put it over the design then a longer heat exposure to push through the tape seems to help. Happy crafting!
@@JustMightDIY thank you.
Is the large glass coated with anything? It doesn’t look like it has a polyester coating on it! Thank you
Hello! Yes - all of these have a sublimation coating.
For the pyd life do you have to by a separate attachment for the glass cans
Hi! That depends on which one you buy.
Hello, thanks for your videos. A query. I used a frosted glass mug on the Cricut mugpress and now it's giving me an error light 3 with the power on and off. How is this fixed?
Hey! We haven’t run into that issue, so we’re unsure of the fix. Hope you can get it resolved!
Do you really need the silicone for the Cricut mug press or can you do it by itself without them?
Hey! If the sublimation blank is smaller than the closed mug press, you need something to add the needed pressure. Hope this helps!
Hello new subscriber here. I just purchased the PYD mug press after watching your unboxing video. Now watching this video. Do I need to purchase the other attachment for the 16oz glass can or can I use the attachmnet that came with it. I did read through all the comments before asking.I did see this question being asked. However, your answer was depending on the brand. I have this exact one so would need to get the attachment 😊 thank you in advance for your time and for making this video. It was excellent.
Hey! We're so glad to have you here. 😀 PYD now sells so many different configurations of this heat press that it's hard to know which attachment comes with which one. What we'd recommend is to grab the 16oz glass cans you want to sublimate, test them with your current attachment and then go from there. We hope this helps!
Great advice. I will do that. Thank you so much for responding 😊
Hey there! I have a genuine curiosity! Are these glass mugs any specific sublimation coated glass mugs or they are just normal borosilicate mugs?
Hey! Thanks for your question. It's our understanding that these have a special sublimation coating on them. For specifics on what that coating is made of, we recommend reaching out to the manufacturer. ;)
Where did you get the turner thing your cup is spending on
Amazon! it is now linked in the description. :)
what kind of paper and ink is should be using? and which epson printer model will you suggest?
Hello! All tools and materials we recommend are linked in the description. 😉
Can you use a regular printer to print out whatever image you want?
As long as that printer has sublimation ink installed instead of normal ink jet ink. Epson ET just happen to be one of the easiest to do this with. Thanks for watching!
I have a pyd tumbler press but not sure which one I have. The 2 in 1 or the V3.0 or something like that. Also see an all in one? How do I know the difference?
Hey - thanks for watching! For specifics on which one you have, we recommend reaching out to the manufacturer. This video was from a while ago, and things change so often that we wouldn't want to point you in the wrong direction. Happy crafting!
What kind of paper you are using? Which brand ? One more question what is your printer?
Hey! We used a few different printers in this, but they were all converted Epson EcoTanks - our favorite is linked in the description. The paper we usually use is Hiippo: amzn.to/3rgZxQp
Please help , I am getting line from the heat press on my frosted cups , the heat press is pressing from the edges showing 2 lines where the heat press ends
Hey! We haven’t run into that. Try decreasing your pressure a bit. Also, make sure the paper isn’t causing the lines. We make sure our blanks are fully covered.
what paper did you use to cover it with ?
Hi there - thanks for watching!! Everything is listed and linked in the comments. Hope this helps!
My uv dtf transfers on stick on frosted glass cup do know y it won't stick I'm I doing it wrong please help
Hey! We haven’t worked with DTF transfers, so we can’t say for sure. Good luck!
Did you use the preset time of the Cricut mug press or add extra time?
Hey! We used the preset time in the Cricut Mug Press
@@JustMightDIY ok! Thank you very much!
not sure if you did a 20 oz glass can libby or the 16 but if you did the 20 oz can you be so kind to tell me what's the FULL WRAP around the whole cup measurements! i have bought the templet's and they still don't wrap all the way around :( i wasted so many paper and money and its my first time doing sublimation and i feel like its such a hassle getting the right measurement's!
Hey! Hang in there measurments are tough, and it's made harder because different manufacturers have different sizes. We always recommend measuring the specific blank you're using and then resizing your image to match.
Awesome video! Do you know how I can foik heat press mugs?
Hi! Think you might have a typo, so we don’t quite understand. Can you ask your question again?
@@JustMightDIY Oops I'm sorry lol. I meant do you know how to heat stamp foil* onto glass jars or bottles.
Nice. So you can sub on plain glass? My husband was just asking me this the other day and I said No...lol
Not plain glass, it must be prepared first. Also, chance of blowing up regular glass of heated rapidly or unevenly.
Happy crafting!
Can you print on aluminum cans this way with the cricut machine
Never tried it, but most things need to have a special coating to take sublimation. Please note, if the can is sealed and has contents inside it may explode. If it is empty, then the pressure of application may crush it.
@@JustMightDIY that why I'm thinking if it's a empty can fill the inside with newspaper to give it enough strength for it
Back pressure could solve the problem of crushing, maybe consider something more rigid. Wood dowel maybe? but the metal on its own won't take much of the ink. This is where subliglaze might come in handy. We used it on wood in this project.

I have not tried a glass in the Cricut Heat press due to hearing about the other problems. Have you tried glass in the oven?
Hey! Yes - we have sublimated glass in a convection oven. Thanks for watching!
@@JustMightDIY How do you compare the oven vs the presses? Pros and Cons?
The process requires shrink wrap to create the pressure that the press would give. Overall the time required to oven is more and the temperature control of the oven may not be accurate or consistent. Once you get beyond all that, it's good.
Hi where can I find the file with the campfire?
Hey! Pretty sure it was Design Bundles, but we’re not seeing it on there now.
can this be done on any glass
Hey! This has to be done on sublimation glass. It has a special coating that can accept the ink when it’s heated. Hope this helps!
Can you put a acrylic tumbler in a heat press
We wouldn’t do that. While we have put flat acrylic in a heat press, even minor heat causes it to warp, so we have to go through a process to flatten it again. Reshaping a tumbler would be far too challenging in our opinion.
How would I be able to put glitter htv on a tumbler any ideas
After 43 drinks, I’ve decided that you two are my favorite couple….EVER
Just kidding I only had 3 😂
Oh, thank God. We were asking ourselves what should we say. We really appreciate the humongous compliment, but at 43 drinks, that's intense. But in all seriousness, thank you! ❤️
Do you purchase your designs from a website?
Hello and yes! All images we used are linked in the description.
@@JustMightDIY do you have by any chance have a video on how to make photo mugs?
