Sublimate on Glass: Dollar Tree Cutting Boards or Sublimation Blanks?

October 2023 Note: An earlier version of this video included sublimating on plain white HTV or adhesive vinyl. Sadly, my plain white vinyl sublimation projects have faded and blurred over time. I don’t recommend that method and have edited this video. I’m testing options for the best long-term results and will share the results once I’m confident. Thank you to crafters who shared their findings to help out our community!
Sublimation on glass?! You might be thinking, “Jennifer, you can’t sublimate on glass!” And that’s absolutely correct! But where there's a will, there's a way, and I'll never pass up the opportunity to test the bounds of materials and tools for the sake of creating. Basically...if they tell me I can't, I find a way! I made some amazing, next level images with AI art generators that were just begging to become stained glass windows! But how? I set out to learn how to sublimate a glass cutting board and pick the best techniques to share! We'll test sublimation blanks and dollar store glass cutting boards with a variety of hacks to see what works the best in this video.

This is a great project, thank you for sharing. I am really having trouble getting my colors intense enough on the glass. Even at 90 seconds, there does not seem to be ink much left on the paper, but the mid tones are pretty lost to be a suncatcher. Against white it is not bad, but near invisable (maybe a little exageration) against the light.

Thank you so much for this tutorial - the items you made are absolutely gorgeous! it came at the time when I was feverishly trying to think of good gifts for a few friends - I do have a question though - if the sublimation happens on the "back end" of the glass why can it not be used as a cutting board to prepare food as the food will be on the right side up?
@JenniferMaker
Жыл бұрын
So long as you’re keeping the food on the side that is glass only. Just be aware that if you make a sublimation cutting board with one of the hacks (vinyl or laminate) it may not be dishwasher safe.
Absolutely LOVE how you explain things!!! Quick question; where did you find the hooks for hanging the completed project? I can not find any. Thanks!!!

I tried the laminate method on a round Dollar Tree cutting board. I did the laminate for the 60 seconds as suggested with my Easy Press and added another 30 secs to the sublimation time (so 90 secs) because it looked like it needed it. I was pretty successful! The only thing I would do differently would be to use my Easy Press to go around the edges for some additional time. The edges in 2 places are light. I think the cutting boards may not be perfectly level so the edges may not get an even press like the middle does. Other than that I'm calling it a 2-thumbs up! Thanks Jennifer!
@JenniferMaker

That sounds like a success! Great thinking on that. ❤️
Thank you for all your instructional videos! Quick question - if the sublimation is on the back of the glass cutting board can you use the front as a cutting board since food would not come in contact with the sublimated surface?

I am definitely going to be trying this. Thank you! I do have a question that I hope you answer before I try this. Do I need to do the soapy water step? Is that part of the process in getting results or is that step strictly to be able to maneuver the vinyl on the glass? It seems that it's the latter but I want to make sure and not miss a step that is crucial.
