 Hello crafters, welcome back if you are coming back and welcome to any newbies that might be coming. Today I'm going to be showing you how to create these koozies, very very simple to create. I'm going to be using these ones right here and I'm going to be subbing them on to my koozies. I'm going to show you how I do it. So I go to upload button here and I purchased these files from Etsy and I also got this off of Google and I just changed it so I'm going to show you really quick so I'm going to add to canvas and I'm going to go step by step. I'm not going to delete these because these are the sizes that work really great for me so I'm just going to show you how I did them but really easy to do. So here we're going to put them here where they go kind of in order and then I'm going to show you how I did each one, that was a big one, there we go and then the last fish one that is hilarious, this one I love and this one I think it's so funny I showed my husband he's like that's so inappropriate, I thought it was funny though. Anyways so for these two basically all you got to do is change it to print then cut so all you have to do is you can either go you can go down the flatten here or you can also go to the print then cut so I have this selected here you go up to operation and then you click it print then cut and then it does it for you automatically there too. Those are the two ways that I do it but you always just want to make sure that it's the print thing cut that it says up here otherwise it's going to think it's vinyl or something else so that's what you want to do. So that's what I do with these ones same thing here and other thing I always do when I'm going through these is I make sure they're all flattened so this one is not so I'll just click flatten quick and for this one here unfortunately it came just the way you see right here so I had to go and google and find these and I uploaded them into design space so that's how I got the color on here. You can't with this you can ungroup this I can show you really quick I can ungroup this but I can't go in and change the color on this unfortunately you can see it's right here even if I go to contour I still want to get that red part up here and the white down here but I can't because it's all attached in one piece so that's just how I did it I went into Google found the image and that's how I got that so I'm gonna get rid of this one just because I was talking about that one so we're finished this one all I did was the same thing was push flatten and then it will change it up here to the print then cut and then same thing with this one just click the flatten you'll see it all change on the side here it says print then cut that's what you want to see before you're gonna be printing this out so the only other thing I did was change the color on these you can change it to whatever color you want when you do flatten it though it will make you the operation up here you cannot click it as you can see so if you want to change a color you just have to unclick my goodness click the flatten button again so when it was it said unflatten so I want to have it say just flatten now you can go in and change it to whatever color you want so again if it doesn't click and you can't go up here and nothing's working just go down here to the unflatten part click on it and then you can change it to whatever color you want so that's how I did those ones up here as well I kept this one just black because I think it would look kind of neat this one I just changed the color on it as well but when you go in if you change the color please just make sure you push that flatten button again and you'll always see a change to print then cut so I'm just gonna do that again just to show you guys what it looks like and the only other thing I did was change the size these are the sizes that work for me I purchased I don't know why just white koozies I I just placed another order for a bunch of colors so I'll probably do another video update later on once I receive those but for now I'm just leaving these colors the way they are so I'm actually going to delete these well the only other thing you have to do is just change the size so that's really easy to do you guys should know how to do that you can go up here and unclick this so it unlocks or you can keep it the way it is and just kind of resize it so I think every koozie is about 4x4 but you always want to check the size of your koozie what I do is I just put my koozie on the mat and then I can visually see how big it's supposed to be so you can change to whatever size you want but these are the sizes that work for me I'm gonna go ahead and delete those so I can just do these ones again all right so you can see on the side here they all say print then cut so I'm good to go with every one of these they are all flattens so I don't have to worry about anything with these so I'm gonna go to make it and I'm gonna show you what it's gonna look like so make sure that when you're doing this or anything using sublimation that you have everything that you need for subbing for example the koozie that I have you can't just use your regular koozie it has to be the sublimation koozie you have to have a sublimation printer the subbing ink and the paper as well so you got to make sure you have all of those things before you can go ahead and do this the only other thing you want to do is make sure that you turn your mirror on that is really important it's kind of like using HTV you always have to make sure you turn the mirror on for it another thing really quick so I've been using these for a little bit now I've been trying a few out and these are this like I said the sizes that I really like go with whatever size you like but another suggestion is so normally I would try to get all of these and take this one and put it all on one page here but I've noticed that if you have a smaller image like this and you just cut it out just a little bit here and you put it onto your koozie and your koozie is larger than your paper is you're going to have like a line in your koozie itself so what I'm gonna do is actually stretch this out as far as it will go and then try to make more paper on each side does that make sense I'll talk about it more when we go to the heat press itself unfortunately I don't really have a lot of room in here for these I could waste more paper and do it that way but I'm not so I'm just going to show you what I mean there is a way to kind of change it so it you can get rid of those seams in there but I'll show you that so I want to make sure that both of them are on so it's on there next thing I want to do is so the head this has nothing to do with your cricket you don't even need a cricket machine for this you just need the design space for it or you can do it in Canva too I hear I haven't done much with that so that would also be another way so here it is print on this paper I'm gonna send to printer and I'm gonna click on the printer that I'm using so I have a lot of printers here but this is my printer that I sublimate on and so I'm gonna take this off I always take the ad bleed off because it does just that it like bleeds a little bit and just doesn't look as good so I'm gonna print this one and I'm gonna go ahead and print the next one as well if you're interested in more information on which printer I have which ink I use I would I'll leave it all in the description down below but I love what I have I have the epsom eco tank it is the 2803 and then I use the hippo paper and the hippo ink so again just turning them add bleed off and I kind of I should go back and add another one here but just for video purposes I'll leave this alone so I'm gonna print this one too so they'll both print off and when you look at your paper you're gonna see little register marks on this side don't get worried about that is because we're not doing this next part here we're gonna hand cut it by yourselves so you're gonna see the little register marks on the side so don't worry about that I'm gonna get set up on my heat press machine and I'll talk a little bit about that and then tell you the temperature to put these at so stay tuned alright so I'm set up at my heat press I wanted to show you this really quick so I printed this out here are the register marks like I said you're just gonna take your scissors and cut this out in your cricket machine for this so you could use it on canva if you wanted to so you want to make sure that you get rid of your register marks because whatever color you have on your paper is going to go and I'm gonna show you what I mean so I have to have my heat press for a little while now this is the new one from HDV runt as you can see on here I kind of messed up a little bit and got some color on here but that's okay so don't do what I did so just like that you just want to cut the color off and then cut in between these and I'm just gonna do another one really quick and show you so basically the same thing I'm just cutting it out with the scissors and then you want to get rid of the register marks up here just like this so I will do these two really quick and show you and then I will show you the koozies that I use so I have white ones here needs to purchase some more white ones and then I have this whole package here of that these colored ones and they are different sizes believe it or not so let me see what color I'm going to use really quick so this looks like a black so I'm gonna use this blue for this one and then the other white one but I want to show you really quick that they are actually different sizes and they feel a lot different so this came from one company this came from a different company and you can definitely feel the difference and kind of see the difference on here so you have to be careful when you're sizing these I can't tell you to do it three by three and then yours is gonna be different so this one is a lot bigger the white one is bigger than the blue one so that's why I always say make sure you check your sizes so basically all you want to do is take your image like this and the thing that would come in handy with this is my lines are not straight you can take one of those paper cutters and cut it to have a nice straight line so that when you put it on here you kind of can just line it up and be like okay that's center but because my lines are not straight I have to look at the image behind it which I can kind of see and gauge where the middle is and where the top and bottom is so that might be something that you want to invest in is like a paper cutter and use it that way then I want to use some heat transfer tape I have that here I love this dispenser heat transfer tape and then you want to just tape some of the edges you don't have to go nuts with this it's just so that your image is going to stay in place you don't want it to move or you're gonna get some ghosting so it's just like that and then you just want to leave your image your paper side up so that the heat gets it so I'm gonna do the next one same thing I have this pink one here actually one thing that I always do forget is to use a lint roller on these I do forget that I do have dogs around here so I saw a dog hair on here so I remembered so anytime you're using HTV or you know subbing on something you want to take a lint roller and go on it I do forget that to be honest with you I haven't really had any issues with it but if you have like dogs or cats or anything you want to make sure that you get that off so I do forget to say that so make sure you do do that before you put this on so you take this and do the same thing this one's a little bit harder because it's a light color and my edges aren't perfect so if your edges aren't perfect on here you can always take this and press it for 10 seconds which is recommended as well to get rid of any moisture or anything but again I forget to do that and I haven't had an issue so I'm just taking it and trying to find the center here which again that would come in really handy if I used my paper cutter to kind of see where the center was so I'm thinking it's about there so I'm taking my transfer tape put a couple pieces on here and then again leave it paper side up like this and then put them in the center and then very important to use Teflon sheet or parchment paper and so you have it covering it so I love this heat press I'm gonna show you really quick what it does as you guys see that I didn't have to do anything so it's doing the pressure for me I don't have to adjust the adjust the pressure over here is my other heat press where I did have to adjust the pressure this one does it automatically has a little button on here if you didn't want to have that you can push that and then just do it automatically by yourself I had it set at 400 degrees for 60 seconds that's what works really great for me and again these are subbing coosies you want to make sure that you do that so when this is finished this will automatically lift up but this thing is amazing it's a little warm here it's not hot up up here I have not burnt myself on this one this other one over here I've burnt myself many times with it but this is the new HTV raunch heat press absolutely love it been using it for a long time now and I love it so I'm gonna show you another coosie that I actually did before so I have this one here and this is a full-size coosie so by that I mean it's the full thing so it looks really awesome that way so I have four seconds left on here I'm just gonna show you a quick what it does again automatically went up just take your parchment very heavy parchment paper or your tough on paper and then just be very careful I do have a pair of gloves here just in case it gets hot so I'm gonna just put my gloves on really quick and then I can show you what they look like but this project is so easy and in the summertime these are like my number two sellers so just like that very easy to create my number one sellers are my egg cartons and I do have a video on that as well so I'll leave that in the link down below and sometimes if your paper is not as big as your coosie it leaves line marks up here so what I like to do actually is go ahead and give it another press and that sometimes most of the time takes those lines out I'm not sure if you can see it but I can tell that they're there so I just put the Teflon sheet over again and then just press it for you know 10 seconds or so and then that always takes it out or if you just let it sit for a little while it'll eventually come up but it's because of the paper wasn't the same size as the coosie so when you're pressing it a little bit of pressure in dense into it so again with this if I wanted to undo it you just push the R and then it automatically comes up so here it is here so I can press it for a little bit longer or I can just keep it the line was taken away a little bit better so again overall really love how this works took only a couple minutes I can sell these for you know five to eight dollars depending on if I do it both-sided or not but I really love how these turned out they're very easy to create and they cost I think 20 or 30 cents a piece so you're making a big commission on these so and if you have any questions or anything please leave them in the description down below please leave a thumbs up if you liked this video and hit that subscribe button if you're not subscribed
