My first attempt to sublimate using HTVRONT clear glossy sublimation htv and HTVRONT sublimation paper on dollar tree canvases.
I made 18 photo canvases for the the high school football team banquet to use in their centerpieces. Here is one of them

Now this is something I’m definitely going to be doing soon. I’m making one of my brothers one as a late Christmas gift of his daughter.

That is beautiful and such a thoughtful. I remember when I did something for a local Children’s football team they absolutely loved it too, and they appreciate it more

That is such a thoughtful gift for your niece. They really were pretty easy to do once I got over my initial hesitation. I have only had a sublimation printer for a week so I am brand new to this craft.

Thank you. My son is on the football team and I have taught most of the kids on the team, so I was happy to make these for them.

Wow! I’m still contemplating if I’ll be buying another printer to make my sublimation printer. I already have 2 (1 dye and 1 pigment) the problem is lack of space… and funds

I converted an Epson ecotank printer to sublimation printer. I also have an Epson ecotank inkjet printer. But I definitely understand the lack of space problem.

So many printers, wish I had more space. I might end up using the roof already

I converted my epson printer to pigment to make my prints waterproof. Bought it quite cheap too. Maybe if there’s another sale i’d end up buying. But lack of space is preventing me

Yes. I’m looking at a uv dtf printer and a uv printer as well. Hopefully I’ll have both by this time next year.

That’s what I didn’ did with my sublimation printer. I actually have 2 more that I bought and don’t currently use but bought a 8550 that I wanted to convert into a dtf printer but after I got it I found out you have to take rollers out and another post and was like no, never mind it cost too much to mess up. Lol. So now I don’t use that one either. I’ve been contemplating converting in to sublimation so I can print bigger.

I’d want a UV DTF printer too, plus a DTF printer. But those are quite expensive already and the maintenance is a pain too if you’d opt to convert a normal printer

I wouldn’t want to do one myself in fear of breaking it but if someone did it for me as far as the dtf one I would buy it.

Honestly, I would buy more but I don’t have to space LOL. Right now they’re all Stacked on top of each other and luckily there are front feeding printers so in that since I’m lucky.

I was looking into that, but they have a lot of maintenance which I wouldn’t be able to keep up with because I specialise in other things so you DTF is something I wouldn’t be able to keep up with and print something every day unless I was selling the Prints daily for the printer to keep functioning and stay in a good condition so that really put me off.

Yeah I plan on putting something if it’s nothing but something small.
