Thank you for watching this tutorial on what liquid I liked best while filling Glass Snow Globe Tumblers with glitter! Check out my previous tutorial on how I sublimated the glass snow globe tumblers with a tumbler press! The awesome heat press that I use can press 160z, 20oz, and 30oz straight sublimation tumblers, and can press the 11oz, 15 oz sublimation ceramic mugs, and many more! I hope you enjoy!

I always add my liquid first, about 1/3 of the way up, then add glitter. Finish filling with liquid and wahlah! Less bubbles ☺️ beautiful cups hate you had to pitch a couple.

I tried the Elmer’s “magical” stuff and distilled water. It did bubble badly also. It’s really thick. I let it sit and gas off overnight but the bubbles didn’t go anywhere. After watching a few more KZfaq videos that recommended spritzing the bubbles with 91% alcohol, I thought I give it a try. . It totally worked. It’s been about 2 weeks and you can shake it and the bubbles don’t come back. It is a very dense solution so it moves very slowly and the glitter stays suspended , which some people like because when you have your drink in your tumbler you can’t keep shaking it. I think there might be a correct proportion of water to glue that may make it work great. Just not sure what that is yet. Thanks for doing the video. I love these comparison videos. It give us options!
