This was my first time to make a sublimation wind spinner. I tried a couple of different heating times and learned what worked best for me.

Ah great suggestion and link to a silicon pad to replace mushy one. Now where did that amazing green cutting mat come from and what size? I see you have the white Yukon tool storage. My wife has that one for her crafting and I'm jealous. Also, is the Creative Fabrica for real - asking $47 yearly normal price $348 or is this some kind of bait-n-switch too good to be true thing?

I just found out about these. Very cool! So when you download the image you have to print it out obviously. I actually went to the Creative Fabrica site and there was a sample download. I printed it but it's on regular printer paper and was too big. The image was cut off. As I've never done the craft your doing, do you use larger paper or a special printer? Sorry for the newbie questions!

@MakingwithMarilyn Жыл бұрын

I cut this at somewhere around 10 inches in diameter. I had to use larger paper since regular size is only 8.5 inches wide. I printed the image from a printer that has sublimation ink in it and I printed it on sublimation paper. Thanks for watching!

Measure the diameter of your wind spinner at its widest part and then make the part of the design that you want to show up slightly larger. If you want to use a circle in your software to mimic the wind spinner to see how the image would fit in it, you can do that. Thank you so much for watching!

How do I make a 10' windspinner on a regular printer? Also did your blank have a protective film on it. I for the life of me can't get mine off so I'm not sure if it even has one on it.

The wind spinners that I have only work with sublimation ink. I don’t know how you would be able to do them with regular ink, unfortunately. Mine did have a protective coating and it was really hard to tell that it was on there.

Yes, you'll just have to be careful not to shift the paper while moving the press around. It might be a little darker where you overlap the print with your second press. They also make 8" wind spinners if you would prefer those. Thanks for watching.

@MakingwithMarilyn 2 ай бұрын

I have a wide format printer, the Epson Ecotank 15000. It prints up to 13" wide and so you can use 11 x 17 paper or 13 x 19 paper. It's not intended to be a sublimation printer but a lot of crafters convert the Ecotanks by using sublimation ink instead of the ink that comes with them. Of course, this can void your warranty.
