Sublimation Socks Hacks: Tips and Tricks for Perfect Designs Every Time

Get my free sublimation sock designs at www.jennifermaker.com/sublima...!
Create custom sublimation socks with free designs!
Socks get a lot of wear (especially fun ones!) but there is a fantastic way to decorate them: sublimation! By dyeing sublimation socks, the fibers themselves get dyed, so the fabric is fine with stretching, fitting in shoes, and lots of washes! There are a few special tools and tips that make all the difference, though. I'll share them and my fun free sock designs for both ankle and athletic styles, including some double-sided versions!

[@rissasmithg]

Hello, thanks for the tutorial. Would this work as well with black socks?

[@JenniferMaker]

Not with sublimation but you can use iron-on vinyl to make designs and sayings. Here is a tutorial for both sublimation and iron-on. jennifermaker.com/diy-funny-socks-with-sayings/

[@lisahughes3012]

i like this video😁

[@JenniferMaker]

Thanks! 😃

[@ryankelly7406]

Great video question how does socks look when on does the pic look stretched

[@JenniferMaker]

Depends on how much your feet stretch the socks 🥰

[@patti-anngracia2791]

for the short socks do you use the same design on both front and back?

[@JenniferMaker]

These are only one sided. jennifermaker.com/sublimation-socks/

[@kemilala21]

Hi, I want to sublimate children socks with contrasting heel and toe colors? I’ve searched but have not seen one person do it. Is it possible?

[@JenniferMaker]

Sure you can do that.

[@snuggles61268]

So is there anyway to do the heel? Or should we avoid that.

[@JenniferMaker]

You can sublimate on the entire sock if you like. The easiest ones would be the flat straight socks. jennifermaker.com/sublimation-socks/

[@eliascortez3469]

Is there valentine prints as well? VALENTINE IS NEAR..

[@mommybeth70]

Do they have jigs for children's and smaller?

[@JenniferMaker]

Yes, you can get different sizes. Even infant size. jennifermaker.com/sublimation-socks/

[@mommybeth70]

Thanks a bunch. Looking forward to making Toe socks lol.
