Using HTVRont Sublimation Heat Transfer Vinyl For Dark Fabric To Sublimate A Dark Cotton T-Shirt Weekend Crafting Adventures

    • Crafts

Did you know that there is sublimation heat transfer vinyl? You can use sublimation vinyl to add beautiful vibrant sublimation ink designs onto cotton and dark colors. In this crafting project, I use HTVRONT Sublimation HTV for Dark Fabric to put infusible ink tie dye designs on black cotton t-shirts. The HTVRONT sublimation heat transfer vinyl I used is matt white so adding colorful sublimation designs to any color fabric is now an option! 
 
Inspiration:
Quick project, new kind of vinyl, sublimation on dark color fabrics!
 
Crafting Keepers:
1. Cooling down my heat press fast by simply changing how I place it in the heat stand
2. Always read the specific instructions for the specific materials and brands. I use a lot of different materials, so taking the time to read the specifics is so important! - For example the heat temp and peel temp for the vinyl versus the infusible ink… added a few extra minutes but is very important to the outcome of the design and project
 
Satiscraftion: 3
Infusible ink can be tricky - the heat and pressure are very important in bringing out the best of the ink sheets… Using vinyl is not a new skill or project
I will use the sublimation vinyl again
