Adorable cups!!

Also, the cups were so cute!

Thank you so much!! You are always so helpful and detailed! I love this channel!!

I know this is an older video but I have just decided to take the plunge and do my own waterslides. I have watched a ton of your videos before and had never seen this one. I've watched a bunch of other waterslide tutorials but I have to say. Yours by far is the BEST I have seen. It is so detailed and the fact that you actually go into Google Docs and walk us through the program is amazing! In all the videos I've watched that was what I had the most questions about and you are the only one (seriously. the only one.) who has gone over a program that is not Cricut design space, and who actually went over dimensions, sizing, etc. Hands down I feel so comfortable going into this adventure now. I'm going to attempt my first waterslide tonight after work AND I AM SO EXCITED! Thank you so so much for all your in-depth tips and advice.

I only put one picture on it but now I know I can put more depending on the size of the pictures. I love this video and how you taught us to use Google Docs. I had never even heard of this until your other video and I'm so glad I subbed to you. I learn something new from each video and I really appreciate you for that. Thanks again, you made my day.

Great video you always give clear concise directions, and keep them short and sweet! One tip with google docs, you can adjust your image size and a few other fun things under Image Options found next to the crop bar when you have your image selected. It also allows you to adjust many other options with the placement, color etc. Thanks for the videos!

I cannot love this tutorial enough! I have been struggling with my waterslides cracking. I also learned the hard way that applying a waterslide over wood grain shows lines without first applying a layer of epoxy. I really like the idea of using clear gloss for other finishes (won’t work with alcohol ink based) to save an additional layer of epoxy. I just started making tumblers a month ago and I am SOOO thankful that I found you. You are the first person I have ever subscribed to and set alerts. I have ordered several products based on your recommendation. I hope to post some pictures of my products to your videos as I try different things. You ROCK!

When I first started, I bought a really nicely detailed roses clear waterslide; I tried to add it to my wine and roses tumbler and of course it doesn’t show up well. I received 3 of the same waterslide and thought to add another one on top, yah that didn’t work... I think I have to paint it white by hand because I don’t want the white background showing through. I’m not defeated yet 😆

Hi Jess & group, I have seen a few people mirror image, print, & apply the Clear coat. Cut around their image, place in water then place their image face down & slide the paper backing off. So I was curious and have asked them why spray seal that side? They said thats what they were taught. They have also said it was so much easier.. I have tried to do one that way, but I didn't like not watching to insure the edges weren't tucked under or that it was straight. I guess I just like the way I learned LOL 😆

Can I ask please this video has helped massively but with stainless steel tumblers that can have hot snd cold drinks in them im not advanced on using epoxy can you use anything else to seal thr water slide at the end ? As I have some clear sealant

You’ll want to use epoxy for an application like that. You could use a product like Crystalac but that requires a turner also

When applying the waterslide to an epoxied tumbler, can you use micro sol and / or micro set or will that have some sort of reaction to the epoxy resin that is already on the tumbler?

@FlynnSistersBoutique

I dont know what those products are. I can't answer that. I'm sorry.

Can you go into depth or do you have an in depth info about the epoxy sealing. Can they be sealed without the turner or is that a must?

@FlynnSistersBoutique

Epoxy is self leveling so if it isnt constantly turning, it will drip off your tumbler. You can turn by hand, but you have to constantly turn until the epoxy stops moving. The epoxy moves for several hours before it cures enough stay in place.

You can layer them but you may see some seams or indentations. laying one on top of the other is sometimes good if you want more vibrant color but it's hard to do. I prefer waterslide to vinyl. Thank you!

First I just have to ask this, has anyone else notice the floating orbs at the beginning of this video? This was a great tutorial regardless. Also, question #2: Is epoxy resin a must or can I seal the designs on my tumblers with a dishwasher safe modge podge instead?

@FlynnSistersBoutique

Mod podge will not give you a permanent seal

LOVED this video. So so informative. I have a lame newbie question. So when I’m looking for images on Etsy to print water slides am I looking for it to say “Clip Art” or PNG file? Does that make sense? Lol. I just need to know that I’m buying the correct format.

I dont know if you will see this question or not, since it's a year later....buy we have had some clear water slides on white cups turn yellow after being epoxied. It doesn't seem to happen on every water slide. Any advice or suggestions? We are stumped to put it mildly. We've never had this happen.

Is there a reason why the water slide gets wrinkled while drying? Will it flatten back out after it finishes drying. I pulled them off before I allowed them to finish drying because they started to wrinkle. Is that a normal process?

@FlynnSistersBoutique

You want to be sure you get all the water pushed out from beneath it. First, i use a squeegee and then pat down well with paper towel. You want to keep an eye on it for a bit and work out any wrinkles if there's shrinking while it dries.
