 Hey guys, it's Jen from I Create Crafts. Today, I'm going to show you an awesome tutorial on how to make custom clothing Like this one. I made for my husband for our homestead how channel Of course, I had to make one for myself for my I create crafts and then I also made one For my daughter for her dog kennel retreat So come along and I will show you a quick way to do this with HTV vinyl and a heat press Hey guys, so I'm gonna be showing you a quick tutorial on how to make a personalized shirt So I'm starting in design space and I'm gonna go to my projects up here. I already have my image that I want to use I'm gonna click on the one I want and I'm gonna customize it So I'm gonna use this evergreen dog retreat one and then this homestead how learn with us The dog retreat we have on our property and my daughter runs that for us And then the homestead how one is our other channel our YouTube channels if you want to check that out It's pretty neat over there. So you just go to homestead how calm or you can just go on YouTube and type in homestead How and it'll show you it's pretty fun. My husband does all the videos all the editing everything Shows you what we do on our homestead. So it's kind of fun. So I'm just gonna show you quickly How to do these so I already have all these these two things created, but I want two different sizes So even if you had an image that you wanted to use you can Upload it into into design space or you can purchase them off of Etsy or anywhere else and you can also Import those into design space and work that way But I just created these myself and then well actually I created this one myself And then this homestead how learn with us is on our homestead page So I just copied the image and I saved it into design space So just quickly I'm gonna click on the first one and just resize it I think I want to do a little one up on the shoulder area and then maybe a large one for the front I know she wants a couple different shirts. So depending on what size you want. You just kind of want to Work with whatever you want. I'm gonna make my screen just a little bit smaller. There we go I make them work with it better But depending on what size you want you basically just cut it out However, you want it if you're gonna do different colors you can do that mine is going to be all White for both of them. I had purchased some black t-shirts off of Amazon So I'm just gonna put them on here. So I'm just gonna change the size of these really quickly Okay, so I think I'm gonna do a couple different sizes. So for this first one the evergreen dog retreat for my daughter I'm gonna change it to be six by four and we'll see how that looks so what they already selected I'm gonna go up here. It's a little unlock button and then change this to six by four and that still looks good So I'm gonna leave that one then I'm gonna do this one the homestead how learn with us And I think I'm gonna do that one six by three and see how that looks so what they already selected I'm gonna click the unlock box and then do six by three And I don't like how that looks. That's why I gotta work with things And I think with these two I'm just gonna put it like up on the shoulder the breast area Just a little one that they can wear and then I'm gonna make a bigger one for the middle of the shirt So I'm gonna select all and then while it's selected I'm gonna push the duplicate button and that's just gonna make me the same thing that we just did And then I have to go and Copy and paste both of these so I'm just gonna do another one So this one is gonna be a three by four and we'll see how it looks or no, I'm sorry Yeah, three by four. So with that already selected. I'm gonna go up here and click the unlock and then See how that looks It's not too bad. And then the same thing with this one. I'm gonna try a two by five and see how it looks They are perfect So I just want a larger one that can go in the center of their shirts and then a smaller one for a different shirt that they can have as well and You can play around with them. You can make a little bit bigger a little bit smaller However, you want so I like how these look and I'm gonna do them white So instead of just changing them all from black to white. I'm just gonna leave it as it is And everything is attached already. So I Don't have to push attached down here So everything will cut out the way I see it. So I'm gonna click make it I don't have my machine on just yet. So might yell at me but I'm gonna move these over and I'm using the HTV the heat transfer vinyl. So one thing you have to remember is That you want to mirror the image So I'm just gonna move them a little bit so I can get you know in between with my scissors And I'm gonna click the mirror button and then make sure that when you put your HTV down on your mat You want to put the shiny side down? So that's also a really another important thing to remember. So I'm going to leave this the way it looks I'm gonna connect to my machine. I will cut this out I will weed it out and then I will show you the next part with my heat press So I have my heat press on 380 for 20 seconds already and I purchased these black t-shirts on Amazon So the first thing you want to do is just put it on and get a nice flat surface going So I just leave it down for a couple seconds Just like an iron just gets it flat and then with it being flat You want to find the center. So you want to take your edges and completely Line them up By the arms here and by the neck and then once you've got it in the middle you're gonna want to press it again And the reason you want to do that is you want to find the middle of your shirt and then you're gonna want to take one of your Files that you did the homestead how one and I'm gonna reverse it and I'm gonna just put it in the center as well So then you know what the center piece of this is as well So not that pressed I don't know if you'll be able to see it But there's a line going right down at the middle of the shirt So I can see it's an I know where the middle is I'm gonna take it again I'm gonna take my file that I just Put in the middle so I know where the center of this is too so I'm double-check and Then you can go off the line on your shirt seeing the middle here and you can lay your File wherever you want it But again, you know the center of it and then you want it three inches down from the neckline Once you have it where you want it You put your paper over it Then you press it for the 20 seconds Okay, so once it's done beeping you want to pull this off and then depending on what kind of HTV you have You might want to you might want to check with it But mine is to pull this part off when it's still hot some of them are cool To pull off But there you go I got a homestead how I'll learn with this t-shirt for my husband really easy to make Then I have several more that I'm going to be doing the same thing with this one is a little bit larger But I'll do it in the middle. I'll fold this like I showed you before I'll fold the shirt and then I'll do the same thing So if you don't have a heat press which I just bought this a couple months ago, and it's the best thing I've ever gotten You can use an iron as well. You have to you'll have to research What setting and how long to put it on for I'm not really sure I don't know offhand But I know for the heat press for cotton. It's about 380 for 20 seconds So I'm gonna go ahead and do the second one and again you just want to line The neck part up and then you want to line the edge pieces up here, and then I just press it And please be very careful because up here is very hot. You do not want to touch that part bottom part is not hot Once you get it flat you just push it press it for a couple seconds Okay, so now I'm finished with that part and again you can tell where the middle is So you go right off of that And then I'm gonna be using this bigger one So again, I'm just gonna take it line it up and just give it a little crease That you can tell where the center part of this is and the center part of your shirt is and again You want to go about three inches down from the neckline? So can you put it on? I'm sure you put your liner on and then press it Again, you can use an iron, but I was using iron and all my stuff was peeling up So I invested in this. I think it was about a hundred and fifty or a hundred and seventy dollars But it was well worth the price So it started beeping so I'm gonna take it off and then again slowly just peel back And then here's the second one as you can see it's in middle with the shirt And it's completely lined up and it's about three inches from the neckline So I'm gonna let this one sit and work in the next ones I'm just gonna do the same thing But that's as easy as it is I will leave a link in the description below for the heat press if you're interested in getting one It's really great investment But I'm gonna go ahead and finish these and I'll show you the finished product Okay, how far I put it just put it down now. I got it lined up We go on what I say so this is nice and warm Jen made me these my sweatshirt homestead how to learn with us in a t-shirt That's pretty cool Now you gotta put a little YouTube thing there for me. You do that
