When I first heard people praising HTVRONT materials 
, my curiosity about cutting machines was already alive, even though I didnāt really know what they could do. I started watching vinyl videos, and by analogy Loklik content began popping up too. Thatās when I discovered the Crafter. For years I had seen that famous, expensive machine from another brand without truly understanding its purpose. Suddenly there was a real option at a price I could consider, and a door opened.
From that day I searched, watched, and read nonstop. The more I learned, the more I imagined a small shop where I could pour decades of art, audiovisual work, design, and communication into tangible pieces. I placed a carefully planned first order: the Crafter, basic tools, and a few HTV colors.
Using them felt like magic. I didnāt expect to be surprised after so many materials and tools in my life, yet I was. It also arrived at a low moment, and crafting became a refuge, as it has for many of us. Creating helped me focus on joy again.
I discovered this community early on but didnāt pay much attention at first. Soon it became part of my daily life. We shared ideas, cheered each other on, and I started posting projects. Many of them came from community challenges. These prompts pushed me into themes I would never have chosen for myself or for my shop, but I still treated each one with planning, care, and design.
Project Sharing has become a key part of my journey. The brandās generosity and the inspiration in the forum encouraged me to keep creating and to learn alongside others.
Those tools of my first haul quickly gained company thanks to sharing events and HTVRONT + Loklikās generosity: the Easy Heat Press, and more recently the LOKLiK ImPress Auto Heat Press 2. I had to make more space at home for these new wonders, even flipping 
the whole crafting room for the ābig sisterā. Iām still planning its renovation.
Beyond making products, these tools allowed me to build the whole identity of my shop. I designed packaging, corporate pieces, and small gifts, things I could hardly have produced before.
Not long ago our community welcomed its sister brand, HTVRONT. It had always been there, but there was no clear separation between the two, so I was already almost as much a fan of it as of Loklik and participated in all the pools and events to help our beloved brands growing.
The materials catalog is much broader at HTVRONT, and I was dying to try some vinyls, but in Spain Amazon (the only place I could purchase them) was out of stock for months. Even so, I kept checking, and now stock is starting to come back, like a permanent vinyl color pack Iāve been eyeing (as I only have black), or some glitter and holographic. But it was through Loklik that I came to know HTVRONT so well. Two names, one heart, the same spirit of making.
This season I also joined the new HTVRONT Partner Program, and I hope to share more on social media while continuing to contribute in the forum. My story with this kind of crafting is inseparable from both brands. Precision, detail, and new materials opened up a world of possibilities for me. I am grateful for the tools, for the community, and for the push to keep sharing.
So Iām very happy to celebrate the seventh anniversary of HTVRONT 
. Congratulations, and thank you so much for inspiring us to create, to support one another, and to dream a little bigger every day.
