I was sent some glossy and matte sticker paper from Homsto and decided to show you guys how I make waterproof stickers. I also put them to the test under tap water and the dishwasher. Links to all things mentioned down below.

This is one of the best videos I've seen on this. It's the dishwasher test that really brings things to light. Thank you SO much for sharing this, it's so helpful.

So this is a little late, but you can optimize the way you export your pngs way faster as separate files. There's an option called export as layers that will trim and save each individual visible layer under the export option. Depending on how many items (I regularly do over 20 stickers at a time) it can take more time to finish the program, like up to a whole minute, but it's seriously so convenient everyone should know.

I have a canon pixma printer and I love it! I make stickers too but obviously I can cut out shapes. I've made pokemon card stickers and then cut them out myself. That was easy because pokemon cards are rectangles. I've just cut out squares, rectangles, and those types of shapes. But! by watching this, you taught me I can print the stickers, laminate them, and then use my cricut to cut out the shapes, wow! Thank you! I just got a cricut and I'm still learning how to use it.,

Great video, you are always so helpful and cute. I would recommend doing a seperate laminate layer and making it a 30pt-35pt stroke and cutting these separate from your print and cut, then aligning them by hand so that you have a laminate slightly bigger than your design so that water can not get under your sticker. This leaves a small clear boarder around your stickers but will protect them better. I recommend using something like vinyl shield from therhinestoneworld for dishwasher safe rather than regular laminate.

omg THANK YOU for making this video!! I've been on the hunt for figuring out which sticker paper type is best waterproof and laminate combined. You separated them in helpful categories with lamination which definitely helps! What kind of lamination do you use? You didn't run them through a thermal laminator or anything so how did you do that? Your designs are so cute btw! So glad I found your channel.

I don't know if you know this but apparently there is a hack to utilize most of your sticker paper since people were unhappy with how cricut's registration mark causes the waste. It'll be a little more work but you'll get more stickers per sheet.

@keilahhall7391 3 жыл бұрын

I would like to know too. I watched the whole video. It seems if you use any of the "waterproof" papers, that the more accurate term would be water resistant and that the dishwasher can ruin the sticker but handwashing is "safe".

@jellyjarco 3 жыл бұрын

All the sticker paper that are labeled waterproof hold up pretty well under tap water and normal wear and tear. When they say waterproof they actually mean the paper itself is waterproof and not the ink. I find that laminating helps tremendously with keeping the ink from smudging.

@homstoprintablestickerpape3349 3 жыл бұрын

@@keilahhall7391 Due to the strong directional streams of water in the dishwasher, the sticker will not be able to maintain its qualities - the ink will for the most part simply be washed off and the sticker will come off.

A big question I have had for a while is is there any benefit to doing glossy + laminate over matte + laminate? It seems better to do matte + laminate in my mind because you can avoid the matte tape step that way, but if you could maybe explain why glossy + laminate is your combo of choice nonetheless, that'd be super helpful for me. thank you so much!!

For our part, we can say that glossy paper has a slightly better color rendition than matte.

It all depends on your goals - our clients use both glossy and matte frosty clear paper for their stickers to attach to the car. But we can definitely tell you that if you want to use your stickers outside, then we recommend that you additionally laminate them or apply UV acrylic spray.
