    Im having THE hardest time with sublimation. I am more interested on sublimating on things such as acrylic, glass and wood more so than clothing etc.

    Just curious to know how others have had some success with sublimating on glass, acrylic, wood, and canvas material? As far as the step by step process and heat settings for an easy press. Ive recently purchased some laminate pouches and polycrilic as ive seen that work on some youtube videos

    Hello Kayley:

    Sublimation is tricky until you figure it out how to make it work.

    For fabric related, you need to make sure that is at least 70% polyester, we have a step by step tutorial to make a sweatshirt: https://craftyclub.com/projects/christmas-sweatshirt/

    We also have some coasters: https://craftyclub.com/projects/christmas-coasters/

    You need to make sure that the materials are for sublimation if not they are not going to be transferred accordingly,.

    feel free to reach out if you have any questions or concerns.

    Happy crafting!
