 Hi guys, my name is Jen and I create crafts in today's video. I'm going to be showing you how to create these awesome koozies telling you step by step how to create these. These were so much fun to do and they are a big big seller and I'm going to talk to you about that more in this video. So let's get started. All right, crafters. So starting in design space. These are the SVG file images that I'm going to be using. I either purchased them from design bundles or I purchased them from Etsy. Those are my two go-to to find them so you can find them anywhere you can go and Google and find them that way. But that's my two go-tos is Etsy and design bundles. So I thought these would be really fun to do. To be honest with you, I've some hide one behind it. I have kind of a few of them behind there. I have never done one like this before this whole image here. So you are going to learn with me how to do this. This is really interesting how it's so full and vibrant like this. So you're going to learn with me how to do these. I didn't see these other ones hiding behind it. So you can see there's kind of a theme going on here. I sell my Kuzies and all of my other crafts at two consignment stores and then I'm also really looking forward to selling my stuff at craft flea markets stuff again this spring and summer. Stay along with me. I will show you everything how to set up how I did give you the full details on everything. So you want to hit that subscribe button if you're not subscribed already because I do make a lot of money on several things that I make. One of them is my Kuzies in the summertime and the other one is my key chains. But my number one thing that I sell is my egg cartons. If you haven't seen that stay tuned. I will leave a link in the description down below showing you how to create those and what they look like. So the only thing with these that I have to do is resize them and there's really nothing else that I have to do except for make sure that they're changed to print then cut and then resize them. So the Kuzies that I have, I just purchased all of them on Amazon. I purchased a hundred pack of multiple variety of colors and then I also have just regular white ones that I'm going to be putting this on. I can't tell you what size to use the way that I do it for me is I put my Kuzie on a mat and I look that way to see how big it is. That's just the way I do it. It makes it really simple and easy to do. So the way I figured mine were so my white ones are a little bit bigger than the colorful ones. So these ones I think I'm going to keep just the way that they look and then this guy I'm going to make a little bit bigger. So for mine it's going to be there it is a 3.2. That's what size fits for me. So I'm just going to change all these to be the 3.2. So it's it's anything under three and a half by three and a half. So whatever works for you is might be different than mine. So the way that I do it is I'm going to leave it locked up here, but I'm going to change this to be 3.2 and then it's automatically going to change the height for me if you saw it there. So I'll do this one really quick and show you I am not unlocking it. I'm just changing it to 3.2 is what I wanted it and it's automatically going to change the height for me. If I unlocked it and change it to be 3.2 by 3.2. I will show you it will not look right. So this is what it looks like right now. If I unlock this and I put it to be 3.2 watch this. It's not as bad, but it is skewed a little bit. So I don't like the way that looks so I always keep it locked up there and then let it figure out for me the height that it's supposed to be. So I just push the back button so it went back to where I wanted it anything under you know the three and a half by three and a half. So I'm just cutting it right here. Then this one I want to make sure no way too big. So again, I'm just going to change it 3.2 and then let it automatically change the height for me and then this last one down here. Let's figure this one out the 3.2 and then if you want to change the color on these you can change the color. Some of them are kind of harder to get to like this one. It looks like it says original artwork here. So what you can do is actually go up to operation up here and change it to basic and that will let you get to the color. So let's say I wanted to do this one yellow. I can do that but you want to make sure you go back up here and you want to do a print then cut it's going to stay the yellow color but you want to make sure that you change it back to the print then cut. So again, same thing. It's printing cut. You can't change color here because it says that you just want to go to basic and you can change it to whatever color you want. So let's say I want this one brown just like that. So I'm going to just hit the back button a few times because I want to keep these black the way that they are and then I change this one already to a different color. So again, all you got to do is resize and make sure it says print then cut and then you can go to make it. So for this one, I'm going to leave it a little bit bigger than the 3.2 because I wanted to overlap on my koozie. Nope, got to take that part out. So I'm going to change this one to be the 3.2 and then let it automatically change the width and the height for me right here. So I've never done anything this full before that takes up the whole space of it. So we're going to see together what this looks like. So I always like to go in here and check that it says you can see up here right here that each one of them say print then cut up see miss that one. So I'm going to go in here for it to then cut you can see it changes it looks a little bit different to but I always like to double check and click on every single one to make sure that that's what they say next after you change the color and you change the sizing you just want to go to whoops sorry want to go to make it and then you send it to your printer. So you're using a sublimation printer that you set up with the subbing ink and you want to use the subbing paper. The only other thing that I do on here is just move this down a little bit and move this to the side a little bit just so I can get my scissors in here. You're not going to need your cricket machine with this you will see register lines on here when it prints out you just want to make sure you cut those away. So that's the only thing I do on here actually one more thing I click the mirror button. So with anything like htv heat transfer vinyl or like this you always want to mirror your image. So I'm going to do the same thing with this one just push it down a little bit. And push the mirror button and the last one unfortunately with design space I don't know why they do it but they don't let you like put them out like if I wanted to put all I suppose that one would fit but it's a little close here like having a little bit of extra paper. I think and I need to work with it so if you guys are kind of knowledgeable if you guys are knowledgeable about this let me know but I think you can do this in Canva and you can print out the whole 8 by 12 piece of paper that you have. I'm not sure I'm just getting started with this. So this is how I do it. I just saved this paper right here. I'm going to take a scissors and cut this paper so I have the rest of this and then I'll use it for another project somehow. So again I could probably put another one of these right here but I'm just going to leave it the way it is for the purposes of the video. I'm going to go to continue and I'm just going to send it to my printer. It's as easy as that. So it says send to printer. I'm going to choose the printer I use. So I have this one. I have the equitink 2803 and I absolutely love it. So you can see the excuse me. You can see that the mirrors on and I always take off the bleed here and then I'm just going to go ahead and push print and it's going to send it to the printer for me. I'm going to do the same thing on these as well. So I'm going to skip and do this one. So I have that one. I'm going to send it to printer. See it here again click my printer that I'm using turn the ad bleed off print it. So it's printing for me now. I'm going to get set up at my heat press. I'm going to talk a little bit about my heat press and then show you what they look like and how to create these koozies. These are awesome. I cannot wait to show you the finished product. All right. So I'm at my heat press and I have all my stuff ready. So here's my new heat press that I'm going to be talking about really quickly. This is the HTV runt heat press over here is my old one. I love this heat press. I'm not getting rid of it, but this one has a couple of neat features that I really love about it. So first of all, it has this pullout drawer here and then second of all, it's automatic. So once you close this drawer, it will automatically go down. If you have an issue, you just push a little R on here and you make it go back up really easy to use. No pressure that you have to worry about it automatically does the pressure for you and it has an awesome little timer button on here. You can push the time button plus and minus. You can push the temperature button here and do the plus and minus really awesome. So when the R turns green, it means it's ready. So I have my heat press set at 400 degrees for 35 seconds. I have my images here. So I'm going to show you these really quick. So this is the images that I cut or printed out on my printer and you can see that it has a register marker on the edge. That is because of cricket. I was not putting this in through cricket to cut it out. I'm just going to take a scissors and cut them out. I've already cut one of them out here. So I cut this. You want to make sure you cut the register lines away from there. So I'm going to be using this one first and you can always see from the back way which way it goes. So you don't put it upside down. I've done it many times where I thought I had it right side up and I actually did it upside down. So you always want to make sure that you're putting it on properly. So here are my white koozies and actually I had some stuff come up. So I wasn't able to finish this project on video on time. So I actually have these white ones and in the meantime of me doing this video, the first part of it and pressing it now, I had the time to order some new koozies. So not only do I have the white koozies, but I have colored ones and you can see here, this is why I said it's important that koozies are different sizes. So you can see on the edge here, there's a little bit bigger of the white one is a lot bigger than the colored ones. You always want to make sure that if you're watching somebody's video and they say, oh, your koozie is three by three or six by six, whatever it could be, you need to measure your own so that you make sure that you have the right size. Very, very important. So really the only thing you have to do is, like I said, you can flip it over. You can see that it says it there. So what I like to do is kind of work backwards. I guess. So this is where it comes in handy where you make your image a little bit larger that you can see all around it and I'm just going to take some heat tape that I have here. This is really not necessary to do this, but I just want to show you guys you can put heat tape on here to make it stay in place. Normally with bigger ones like the koozies, I don't worry about taping this. I just I just put it down in one spot so you can use heat tape and put it around the side so it stays in the spot and then when you're done, you want to make sure you flip your image so your image is right side up. So it's facing up towards the heat. So I'm going to just take another one really quick. So I have a blue koozie and I'm just going to find one here and cut this one out to really quick. Again, like I said, you want to get rid of the the lines on the side because those will go on anything because any color will go on here as if you can see this. If you can see all this, I kind of made the mistake of doing that. So I have it all over here, but it's not going to ruin anything with this. So here's the next one again. I like to flip it over because you can see what it says and then you want to just take it and this one's a little bit smaller. So I'm going to take my time trying to find the center of this. I can see the image on the back and I can kind of gauge where the edges are here and I want to make sure it's going to fit on the top and the bottom. So very important that you want to make this really straight. And then now is when the heat tape comes in really handy because now I can just put it on the side because it's not that big of an image. So just like this. So then the image is not going to move. So just like that, two of them are done. Next thing you want to do is just take a piece of parchment paper or a Teflon paper and lay it on the top to protect it. I'm going to pull this out all the way. I have the two on here and then again, like I said, all I got to do is watch this. That's it. It's automatically sorry about that. It's automatically telling me that it's working the pressure. I don't have to worry about it with this one. I'd always have to gauge and do the pressure on that push down really hard. This one. I don't have to do anything. Just watch it count down and that is it. This thing is really awesome. I love this thing. So other things that you're going to need are some gloves because this is going to be hot when you are done with this. So the heat tape comes in really handy. I'll leave a description down below. This heat container is really awesome. It comes in handy. Once it's done, it will automatically lift up. So I'm not saying that you should ever leave your heat press, but for whatever reason, if you have kids and they're crying for you or you got somebody at the door, this will automatically go up and after a certain amount of time, this will shut off. So not at all am I saying, hey, go leave your heat press. You always want to stay by it when you have it on, but just in case that's a nice feature that they have. So I'm going to take that off. Not going to worry about the gloves. You should have gloves on for this, but I'm just going to show you. So I'm going to take this off and there it is just like that. It is a little bit off on the side here, but I figure once you put a beer can in or a soda can, you're not really going to tell. So there's the first one. They're the colored one. And then here is the full color one that I was really kind of worried about because I'd never used a full color before. So we're going to see what this looks like together. I'm going to take this tape off and again, this is hot. So you should wear gloves, but I'm not going to put them on for now. Ready? Ready for the reveal? I've never done this before. All right. Dad, that is really cool. I love it. So it went down far enough on here. So if you have something in here, you're not going to see the edge on there just like that. And you can actually go around and do the back too. But I like that. That is a full image there. That looks really awesome. So I'm going to continue to keep doing these. I have all these left here, but you're just going to want to do the same thing. Cut around your image here and then use your heat tape and put it on there. So this is done. You can kind of tell that this is done. There's really no color on it left. So you want to put that to the side and not make sure you don't use it again. You'll see on some of them that it does have color left. That's just where your heat did not touch your fabric. So that's why you might have left that left. So I'm going to go ahead and finish some more of these up and then I'll show you what they look like when they're finished and I'll put something inside of it. So kind of shows you off shows off what it looks like. But overall, I'm very happy with this. Leave a like down below. If you like this video, hit the subscribe button.
