This is fantastic, what a gorgeous design ☺☺

[@mysketchbook3402]

Cool, I'm glad to see you finally were able to make those shirts you'd longed to make. That's awesome. Keep up the great work.

[@fructusillustrations]

Yeah! It was really exciting and I feel so happy that the time has finally come ☺❤

Hello. You have got amazing products. Is there a chance you could make a video on how to set up Eco tank printer for good quality pictures? I have Epson Eco Tank but my Pictures I make with vivid colours in Procreate look pale and dull.

[@TwistedZepher]

Those shirts came out perfect! So excited to see what new ideas you're going to come up with c:

[@fructusillustrations]

Aww thank you! I was a little nervous at first since I've never done something like this but the results are so great! Very happy to keep making more and sharing 🌷

[@RatchetUpYourArt]

Excited to see you taking this next step in your journey! Q. Where did you purchase your shirts?

[@fructusillustrations]

Thank you! Have more ideas that I'd love to work on 🐻❤️ The shirts I got are the brand bella canvas!

Hey! Fellow screen printer and t shirt pro here, I gotta say DTF is great! As long as you wash and dry your shirt inside out, it can last a long time before fading or peeling. It is a way better option than vinyl transfers imo. I just hate the trash that is made with transfers, so I personally like screen printing or DTG (direct to garment printing). I understand that you want the control of making your own product, but if one day you have a big demand and need a lot of shirts to sell, I would seek screen printing. It is way faster and cheaper than DTF for jobs over 50 shirts. You can find a bunch of screen printing businesses in the US. And lemme say you can trust us screen printers lol ;) Love your videos ❤️

[@fructusillustrations]

Thank you for the insight! I really appreciate it and I totally agree with you on the trash with transfers. I don't plan to have apparel become a huge part of my shop but in the future I would much prefer screen printing so thanks for helping me better understand my options! 😊❤

The design came out so nice! Really great colors and so crisp. Excited for you!! 😃 May I ask, I’ve been looking into getting keychains made and possibly washi tape as well. But vetting vendors is getting exhausting. Where did you end up on those for outsourcing? It’s ok if you don’t want to say. 😉

[@fructusillustrations]

For most products, I've used Vograce to manufacture my products and I really like the way they turned out ☺

[@AuroraCatfe]

Ooooo I can’t wait for it to come out!! I’m a homebody tooo 😍

[@fructusillustrations]

Yayy! I'm excited to release it soon! More details to come :)

[@Heymandini]

What kind of transfer sheets are thise! They look great!

[@fructusillustrations]

I got DTF transfers from Ninja Transfers :) This is my first time ever using them but I'm liking their quality so far!

[@augustatkinsonillustration5341]

Remakable handmade stickers and bookmarks

[@22suprstar22]

The quality on that print is soooo good. I love your homebody series cause i can relate so hard to that 😂 super inspiring video! Congrats on the machine and shirt designs!!

[@fructusillustrations]

Thank you so much, fellow Homebody!!

[@TheKenyaBrand]

I love the cute t-shirts and I want to buy one of your bookmarks sooooo badddd

[@lildee_w6254]

This is my sign to buy the heat press 😅

[@petrag.4092]

❤❤❤

[@MS-dw6zu]

Wow this was an interesting video to watch. The process of making tshirts is definitely trial and error lol You are such an inspiration❤ May I ask where you buy your DTF ink from?

[@MissGwendo10]

Could maybe use the baking of the dtf transfers to maybe do enveloppes for your orders and put stickers inside so you could reuse them ! ^^

[@fructusillustrations]

Great idea!! I love that and will have to try something like that ❤

[@crazyhappyhomelife1721]

Another homebody here! Your art is super cute! I've heard mixed reviews about the htbromt auto heat press being able to do dtf transfers. Did u have any issues or have to make any accommodations to get it to press well?

[@TaliaAlharthi]

Hi I love you with your stay always give me five of drawin I want to buy your books The problem is I don't know if you send to Arabic countries🌷💐✨

[@bafometito]

I really love your videos. Curiosity, did you buy another printer to able to use sublimation ink? Or do you use the same printer but now with just the sublimation ink. I’m asking because I also want to make sublimation products for my university but someone told me is very hard to switch inks constantly from the same printer (almost impossible).

[@fructusillustrations]

I had my designs outsourced so no I didn't buy another printer. I haven't ventured into sublimation printers or inks and I don't have any current plans to but from what I understand, once you put sublimation ink into a printer, you can't really switch inks. I thought you had to have a dedicated printer for that. But I'm not entirely sure since I've haven't done extensive research into it. Hope you find what you're looking for ☺

[@kalirally]

Thanks for sharing! Have you checked into printing your transfers at home?

[@fructusillustrations]

Not at the moment because I think i would need a separate printer and I'm not making a bunch of stuff but maybe in the future! if I do, I'll of course share that here ❤️

[@kalirally]

@@fructusillustrations Sounds good, thanks! I've been mostly happy with outsourcing my shirts to Printful. I'm curious how the transfers hold up after multiple washes.
