Great video Alison! Whenever I'm pressing something that has a "middle" (pillow case, bag, etc) I like to put a piece of butcher paper (aka "blowout paper") to catch any ink that might go through the subbing surface. For things like the pot holder or coin purses, I like to put a Teflon sheet or pillow in the middle, to (1) keep the layers from melting into each other, and (2) help flatten the subbing surface.
I have a Sawgrass and had the same issue trying to use a Cricut heat press to sublimate with it. I tried ordering a swing away heat press but it was a fire hazard waiting to happen and I returned it. I then ordered the rubber replacement mat for the press so I had a firmer base to heat press on and that worked! Definitely still need a wider press for bigger projects but I need more ink before I can sublimate anything else. That trial and error process certainly eats up the ink faster than you plan on!
Thank you Alison for sharing such great ideas. I'm going to be looking into the bottle opener. What a great stocking stuffer. Hoping to get a heat press soon.
Thank you so much for your tutorials! I'm getting sublimation supplies for Christmas to get started so they will be a big help! My printer will only print images 8 1/2 x 11. I want to be able to do some larger things. Is it possible to do multiple pieces in several different presses, or would it mess it up pressing more than once? Hope I'm making sense. Thank you for any help.
I haven't tried sublimation yet, not sure if I want to take the money dive yet. 🤔 The fact that you went from no mascara to mascara and back again in your video kind of cracked me up though!!! Lol 😉🙂
Haven’t started sublimation yet. Still watching lots of videos on how to. Thanks!
I love doing sublimation. This was fun to watch!
That bottle opener is cool! And so many possibilities 😍😍😍
Thank you! I agree!!
Saving for later! I haven’t gotten into sublimation but it’s definitely something I’d like to try and these projects seem like easy starters.

these heat gloves for real are amazing! I don't know if they sell them individually or not but i love them!
I really want to get into sublimation! Just waiting to get a printer and then I’ll be set
When I got into sublimation i didn’t realize the amount of creativity for designing it would take. That’s what I struggle with.
I haven't tried sublimation yet, not sure if I want to take the money dive yet. 🤔 The fact that you went from no mascara to mascara and back again in your video kind of cracked me up though!!! Lol 😉🙂
I haven't tried it yet now I think I'm going to
