The best video I've found !! I love that you tested all the vinyls in the dishwasher! I've been looking for a thorough video like this!! Thank you!

Thank you for the tip on snipping the transfer tape to help the vinyl sit flat. This helps a lot on the curved surface.

Thanks for the explanation about regular and strong hold transfer tape, and using glitter. I love the unicorn. So cute.

Thank you for doing all the testing for me. Now I can make my own decision on what type to use.

Thanks, I'm new at Cricut (just got one for Christmas, so exciting) I am chomping at the bit to play with my new toy. You have inspired me!!

Thanks for such a clear, concise and informative video! I watched about a dozen videos and yours was by far the best. Santa bought me a Cameo 3 and I'm excited to get started with this type of crafting.

Every video is better than the last. So much explanation and demonstration of different options. Love it.

Wow, I absolutely love your video. I just bought the cricket maker and your tutorial was very helpful! Thank you so much! Cannot wait to try the unicorn mug. Absolutely adorable.

Thanks so much. I have several mugs that I haven’t tried yet, so I will try now that you’ve given me confidence and inspiration. Oh, and also great instructions as always.💕

Omg i found you yesterday and I’m already loving you ❤️ thank you.

You are amazing. Thanks for all these tutorials. I have looked forward to them everyday this month.

Thank you for this! I made an adhesive vinyl glass and it made it great through the dishwasher, but I've always wondered if I should have been using HTV. I'm happy to see that I don't need to. This was a great comparison and I wrote some notes down. Thank you!

These are very cute! And some WONDERFUL tips! Thank you for sharing your time and talent!

I just bought one and am watching your videos. I noticed the JML mug in the background. Those are my initials :)

Great tip to snip the transfer tape! I put vinyl on some Christmas ornaments last season and it was tricky (they were super curvy). I figured out the loosely connected images worked the best, but it was still hard. I can see how giving the transfer tape some room to flex will help.

I did a Powder Coated Tumbler yesterday. It was not my first time but I did use Cricut vinyl for the first time. I usually use Oracal 651. I had no problem with the adhesive holding on. It was my first time using Cricut premask and I am not a big fan of it but it will do. I do enjoy your videos and there is always something useful. Thanks.

Thanks for this step by step. I'm so excited to start making things with my cricut

Great mugs

THANK YOU for such a great video. I am NEW to Cricut and just got my maker for Christmas. Bought a bunch of different vinyls but had no clue what or types. This video will get me started and I learned a lot. Subscribing and saving.

Thank you for this. My boss gave me a vinyl decal a couple of months ago and I hadn't done anything with it. I'm so inexperienced with vinyl, I didn't know how I should apply it and I couldn't decide what to put it on. Thanks to you, I was able to dress up a water bottle that has our company logo on one side!

We use Oracal 651 on all our mugs and tumblers at our sign shop It survives over a year of dish washer torture, plus it is much more cost effective if you are running dozens of mugs. You could have applied the circular monogram easily if you ran a hair dryer over the 651 for a couple seconds after you removed the transfer tape. Nice work on the mugs.

@romans5eight

Thx for the tip!

I was totally oblivious to using alcohol to treat the mugs prior to applying the vinyl and like you I found out the hard way about having to use a stronger transfer tape for glitter vinyl. The problem I came across was once the glitter vinyl got wet the color on it ran. I tried to use a modge podge or even a clear coat but with no success. Thank you for this video though. I'll be sure to subscribe!

I really liked this video ... I have only done a few glasses and did not like having the wrinkles ... this video taught me a lot ... now can’t wait to do some mugs ... thanks Jennifer!

Im definitely subscribing. Love your pace, value added info and creativity.

Got at Maker and one of the Cricut heat presses for Christmas. Thank you so much for the fantastic tutorial! I subscribed so I'll be watching more. 😊

Thank you! You just saved me a bunch of money on having to do my own trials lol

First off, I love you! You have helped me learn so much about the machine that has fascinated me for years and has also intimidated me too. Watching you create and explain through your videos has got me starting to create my own unique items and for this I thank you! I do have a question.. I want to make outdoor garden flags for my home and was planning on using HTV. Have you tried something like this in the outdoor elements? Do you even recommend HTV or would you use another type of vinyl? I am thinking of using a canvas, or poly/cotton blend fabric? Anyway I'd love your feedback on my little project if you have any input! Thanks again for all the countless times you've helped me !!

Love love love this tutorial!!! You answered all my questions for a project we will be doing for a birthday. Right on time! I also subscribed when you mentioned painting furniture. That is another project I had in mind...thank you.

One of the things I heard stressed was never dishwash, always hand wash. Unless you iron-on and/or seal with a poly or epoxy. With epoxy , make sure it cures and airs properly as it can still secrete fumes (which are dangerous and unscented) nobody wants to get sick or make a client sick ｡◕‿◕｡
