Sublimation on acrylic is my favorite way to showcase illustrations and photos on keychains, nightlights, and photo panels! You don’t even need to buy acrylic with a sublimation coating or use a spray to add one! The detail and color possible with sublimation printing is hard to beat for home crafters and small businesses. But combining it with acrylic pieces really makes your work stand out! There are some special tips and tricks to acrylic sublimation blanks (did you know you can control their shape? SO cool!) so let me show you what I’ve learned!

    I work often with the light bases. If your acrylic is too thin (it usually is if it's small enough to be etched with the cricut), just put a couple foam dots on the bottom part that goes into the light. It works perfectly and doesn't interfere with displaying.

If so, how can I prevent that from happening (do you have another video on it)? I have zero experience and still haven't bought a press, lol. Just trying to decide if this is something I want to give a shot at. I had a horrible experience with an Etsy seller and no Christmas ornaments for my family; so I figure at this point I could give it a shot myself.

    I don't know if I am missing something. I have rewatched the video 3 times. My acrylic night lights are lighting up like yours. I did the moon which I just love it. It didn't light up. I did another design with flowers and it will not light up. Any insight would be helpful. This is the acrylic I am using, Acrylic Sheet Clear Cast for LED Light Base, 0.08 Inch/ 2 mm.

    I finally was able to make the beautiful moon nightlight, but the design wasn't as bright as I hoped so it doesn't show up very much unless it's against a white background. Any suggestions about what I might have done wrong? Also, I tried making the keychains with a design that didn't fill the whole blank and I can see the outline of what I cut out to sublimate it. Any suggestions on what I might have done wrong?

    Everybody is using "butcher paper", so I found some brown, at the store, and used it on an iron-on heat transfer design. I'd done the center, and wanted to add text. The paper stuck to the center design, and by the time I got most of it off, the red in (inkjet) had bled, and ruined the shirt. Is there a difference in the white butcher paper and the brown? Thanks! I am SO wanting to do sublimation, but can't afford the supplies.

    White butcher paper is similar, but has undergone a process to bleach the brown color from the pulp. I use the white.

    Yes, acrylic is made of sublimation-compatible polymers. Some acrylic blanks have a white surface to give your image an opaque background, but I also like the clear acrylic, as long as the design doesn't heavily rely on white! jennifermaker.com/sublimation-on-acrylic/#:~:text=A%3A%20Yes%2C%20acrylic%20is%20made,t%20heavily%20rely%20on%20white!
