[@Purebeachlove]

The sticky notes tip. 😂 that’s me! Thanks for the tips!

[@beautydeep222]

This was very helpful!!! I have been researching and wanting to get started but I am so afraid of wasting money and time. Thanks for this information!!!!

[@leahsmusic2491]

Thank you so much I appreciate everyone else don't explain

[@Donyeil1]

The notebook idea is great thanks 😊 I have all this crafting stuff and haven't done anything yet 😭😭😭

[@ColorMePorcha]

Pick a small project and jump right in, you got this🪄🎨

[@danij1060]

Me too! I have the supplies but am overwhelmed with all of it

[@Donyeil1]

@@danij1060 What i did was link up with a crafting group from Facebook in my area and set up crafting sessions so I pay her to come to my house and show me how to all works im having sessions tonight on custome potato chip bags

[@buffyruble1000]

Thank you for the "emotional outburst" option. This video was awesome, and still Is. Appreciate you, and you are a beautiful woman. Well Done.✊🏽

[@mvang5028]

This is so helpful! I'm researching sublimation at the moment and trying to decide if I want to jump on the bandwagon. Your video provides information that I have not seen or heard elsewhere on the struggles that come along with learning a new craft. Thanks for making this!

Awwww, I'm glad I could help. Best wishes to you both 😊

[@mundanestuff]

Notebook is a great idea. You could even screen shot your printer settings and stuff like that, print off the screen shots and store those in your notebook too. A virtual notebook works too, word doc or Google doc, copy / paste the screen shots, and keep notes there and you can access them on your phone or computer and it's free.

[@habitualresistor9548]

Keep notes is a great note keeping app. Recommend

[@jackeecrossley9784]

when you pulled out those sticky notes, I fell off my chair! i have so many of them and i don't know why i wait until 'x' amount of time to transfer to my notebook...journaling/documenting the journey is critical.. it saves you time money stress and can increase productivity which in turn will increase profit margins... thank you so much for sharing your content and experiences....

LOL, you're welcome 😊

[@rhull-nicholls2727]

Hey! New subscriber here! I'm hoping to get into Sublimation soon, so came here tonight and searched "step by step sublimation for beginners". Your video came up, so I gave it a go. I appreciate you being kind enough to share the "little things" that all too often most people have to learn the hard way. Or if someone is willing to share the information, they also want to charge you to learn it. Or how people buy a Cricut and let it sit in a box for a year (or more) because they're afraid to get it out and screw up. That can get expensive!!! I hope to check out more of your videos for continued suggestions! TFS!! :)

[@ColorMePorcha]

I appreciate your feedback, best wishes!

I loved your presentation! I am excited to get BACK to crafting. We moved to a new home (late 2021) and I was blessed with a whole new craft room. Fully furnished. I have not made one thing! So as I’m watching KZbin videos, it’s giving me much inspiration. I have been itching to try sublimation, too. Thank you!

[@christinawindsor4662]

Thank You SoOoO Much for all the info

[@savagetwin52]

TFS these great tips. Although I have the printer, paper, ink, mugs and mug press, I have not done sublimation with the printer. The first take away was just don't dive in as enthusiastic crafters do. Slow it down, keep notes, learn, measure twice and cut once. I am so glad to meet you. And will be looking forward to learning a great deal from you!

[@ColorMePorcha]

Thanks!

[@yvettecurcio2863]

I have the same printer and have no idea about the settings and also was under the impression that you could not keep changing ink. I am just learning and glad I found you.

[@sharonrudesal414]

Do you have a tutorial on how you added the color setting for your epson or can you tell me where to go to do this.

[@ColorMePorcha]

This is the ICC profile I used for Printers Jack Ink: sublimationstudies.com/2019/03/20/how-to-install-a-sublimation-icc-printer-profile/

[@sharonrudesal414]

@@ColorMePorcha thank you so much. I am guessing I need to research my ink, which is EZink, which i got as a gift with my printer?

[@ColorMePorcha]

Yep, to my understanding, each ink has its own icc profile. But I will say the first time I used a different brand to fill my tanks, I forgot to update the profile and didn't notice a difference.

[@Midmo]

Great tips, much appreciated!

[@cherylhood950]

I want to tell you I love your personality. You are awesome the way you help others. You made me feel like I am not the only one experiencing these issues. Thank you for your help. I have subscribed and liked. A couple of things I have learned watching some of the other videos on You Tube. First, as far as the lines from the pressed images. I learned that you could spray the pressed image with a little peroxide, and it helps get rid of the edges you see. Leave it on for a few minutes. you should be able to see the lines disappear. Then wash the blanket or shirt in cold water. Second, I am not sure if on a mug press you can use painters' tape to go around the tumbler after the initial taping with the painter's tape. It helps apply much more pressure to get a tighter fit and more colorful picture. Maybe you could try it. Just a couple things you could try that may help. Look forward to seeing more of your videos. :)
