Do you need a saplamation printer or can you use a Hp 7527all in one photo printer?

[@cassidyfox4033]

I saw in other videos that you cannot use glass in the mug press. The glass burns up the press and ruins it. Anyone know if that is true or not?

[@MirfatnHamza]

@@cassidyfox4033 yes it is recommended NOT to. I watched that video.

[@brittanysalwey6603]

Where do you find this “read more” button. I see everyone asking is getting the same response, but there is no such button…

[@baydenfilleul]

Love how loads of other people are saying don't get the press cause it only takes 2 mug types and then your like 'na bro, check this out'.

[@vjjackson85]

Agreed I got so much backlash from groups saying I might as well have thrown my money in the trash. So many hating salty crafters. This machine seems so awesome.

[@xamountoftruth08]

lol really... its round, anything that is round will fit if you play around with it. And it heats up... so it will sublimate! cant wait to use both my printer and infusible!

[@tailoredto2070]

I was on the fence but seeing this video pushed me over, lol. This works for me because I don’t have space for a heat press with all the attachments. Putting this on my wish list for sure.

[@christinacarrasco7080]

Lol I just shared this with 15 people. 😂😂😂👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 When I was looking at it yesterday in Michael’s I was thinking - I bet you could stick a Tumbler in there upside down and make it work. 🤷🏻‍♀️👍🏼👍🏼

[@Louisianagirl_1126]

“Thank you,” Angie for being assertive and doing the work to show us what we CAN do with the Cricut Mug Press. You are probably the most honest and the most go the extra mile person that is on KZbin. You always go the extra mile to show us what is possible with any product. Stay safe and take care. ~Barbara

[@Brineytoes]

This is why you’re MUMBER ONE. You have the whys, wherefore, how-tos, and why-nots! You just expanded the possibilities by a huge margin. Armed with this new, EXPANDED LIST, I have reached full justification. Now to save up! 😁

[@rumors4]

Oh my goodness, you are the best ever!!! I wasn't going to purchase the mug press for that simple reason, only being able to use Cricut mugs. You my dear have now opened a whole new world for me...thank you from the bottom of my crafting heart.

[@craftylady11]

Thank you for this! I’m glad you actually took the time to find out what type of items you can use in the Cricut Mug Press and made an informative decision. So many others have made videos that are negative and they haven’t even purchased it. Thank you for actually taking the time to purchase it and try it out. This was very informative and I’m so glad I purchased mine. I now know what other things I can do with it!!!

[@cl6233]

You fully answered my questions! Happy to see there is a lot of versatility to this press and we aren't restricted to Cricut! And glass too!!!!! Game changer!!

[@texas385homestead]

AWESOME! Just made my husband watch this so he would understand it's more than just mugs! Thanks!

Great video, glad you aren’t locked into cricut blanks. I have to wait till the end of year till the mug press comes to 🇦🇺 so I can do my homework and source blanks.

[@debrafelix1946]

Angie!!! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! For showing us the other blanks we can use. I was just having this conversation with my husband about getting the most out of my mug press and wondering what other blanks I could use. I love the mason jar too. I can't wait to start! 💕

I don't pay attention to haters (or are they just jealous?) and received my press in the mail yesterday. I can't wait to get different types of mugs to use. Options are endless for those who have the imagination. Thank you!!

If I could give this video something more than 1 thumb up - I definately would! Thank you!

I Absolutely LOVE your channel, I just got into crafting because I just became an empty nester and then the world changed with the pandemic, and I have never had that crafting gene , BUT with all YOUR help you have guided me in soooo MANY crafting areas, including entering the world of Sublimation , wish I had found your channel earlier when I purchased my Cricut , I made so many costly errors , I love how you compare different products and share where to purchase these items . Thank you for all you do and your knowledge 😊

[@igriff8526]

Thank you so much! As I continued to watch so many videos showing what could and couldn’t be used and height limits continued to be brought up I kept asking why can’t we just put them in upside down and you just proved you can!!!!!!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@ambrosiasky1168]

I love your videos so much. Your response to "No, you can only use certain types of mugs" was, hmm "Challenge accepted." Very amazing. Been following your videos for a while and they're all very helpful. Thank you!

Yay! Thank you!

[@alteredLori]

this makes me very happy! Thanks for all you do! AND I love listening to you. Your videos are concise, informative, easy to understand and your tone of voice is great!!! No singing in your voice, or any of those other things u tubers do! lol Love ya girl!

Glad you like them!

[@ttmarie1111]

Thank you Angie! With your help I don’t feel so guilty with buyers remorse on the mug press investment. Knowing I would be restricted to just the blanks that Cricut developed the mug press for! I really loved the concept and got hooked with your debut video! I love you took on the challenge! I’ve been tracking mine, should be at my door the end of the week! Can’t wait! 🤗

Oh my gosh, Angie! I just found you last week and I'm so very grateful for your videos. You do such a wonderful job of instructing us and letting us know all the details. I really appreciate that you answer my question even before I ask...and questions I didn't know I had!! Lol. I'm a 75 year old crafter and love, love all the new stuff, including technology. My mug press is on it's way here. I'm so excited. But even more so now that you've made THIS video!! Wow! I'm so very happy to hear we can use other blanks to make all the stuff. I am so grateful you've done all the "leg work" in finding these items. I feel like a kid in a candy shop! Thank you...thank you with all my heart. You are a precious gem to us all. I really need to watch ALL your videos (if I can find time while making stuff...lol). Especially the one you've shared on the sublimation printer. :-)
