I always want to do one - I have been collecting some sheds that I find around my house- don’t have many in Upstate NY & I don’t know anyone that has one - love yours- awesome job
Need to get your shit together before making a video waste of my time
I have a broken seal on my acrylic tumbler, And water has gotten in between the two layers. Needless to say, I was delighted to see that Alisha had made a video of how to repair tumblers with broken seals. However, I found her video to be less than helpful. Rather than getting right down to the solution, she had to add a LONG DRAWN OUT version of the personal story of her shipment of tumblers possibly being defective, and freaking out over what she was going to do about it. It was way too much information, when she could’ve given the shorter version. Between that and her young daughter interrupting her CONSTANTLY and waving a dollar bill In front of the camera so it blocked the view of Alisha showing how to repair the tumbler, it was no help at all. Don’t get me wrong, but if you want to show off your kid, do a video of your kid. There is a time and place for every topic. This is your business, and people count on you for your knowledge and expertise.
Thx for your opinion
Nice I love the tattoos on water bottles, but never thought about that good or inside of it like he just did nice
👍🏽
Nice work. Where did you get the frame mold? Thanks for the video.
The blue tumbler with dragon scales is GORGEOUS!!!
Thank you 😊
I love dragons. That print is beautiful. What printer do you use?
Epson eco tank.
@@ItsACraftThingAlishaVirgillo Thank you. I have an EPSON. I clearly do not know how to use it properly!! lool
@@queenmarieglitters4989 make sure the injectors are clean. If the printer sits too long the ink dries in them and they need to be cleaned. That can and has affected color printing.
@@ItsACraftThingAlishaVirgillo Yea, I know thats one of my problems. But I think the biggest problem is the operator not using the proper settings!! lol. I probably need to KZread directions...
@@queenmarieglitters4989 lol ok 👍 good luck!
Hello may I ask what did you use to clean it the spray ?
91% isopropyl alcohol
@@ItsACraftThingAlishaVirgillo thanks 😊
Omg thank you so much
You're welcome ☺️
Gorgeous!
Ty 😃
Did you sand it down? I need a specific color match this seems like itll do the trick!
Yes. Just a light sanding with a super fine grip.
I’m new to this and your demonstration was very informative and helpful. Thank you!
Ty! Happy crafting 😊
A purse tumbler…..? Interesting. People have really ran out of things to make, haven’t they? 😂
Yep! It's all been done over and over and OVER again. There are actually times The carry handle works out well when my arms and hands are full. 🤷♀️
Drip of blue alcohol ink? Awesome
Yes. Dark blue.
These tumblers are amazing! I see this video is older, but I'm just running across it. I'm so glad I found it! What color did you use on the eyes of the black and red one?
Hi! Thx. Red and yellow.
@ItsACraftThingAlishaVirgillo Thank you for your quick response!
@@jessicablake2870 your welcome 🤗
Beautiful
Thank you 😊
Such a beauty😍Love them both however that pink one is 👌🏽amazing job! Stay blessed love 🥰
Thank you 😊
Love these... are you going to add both images to your Etsy? I like them both and would like to purchase both, actually I have all the other 3 designs in my cart. Thank you so much.
Yes there are 3 images in that bundle and they are available now on my Etsy shop. If you do not get all 3. Let me know.
My 2803 from target came filled with Epson ink already.
Really!? Well that wouldn't work if you were trying to put sublimation ink in.
@@ItsACraftThingAlishaVirgilloyup and I am. So now I’m on the hunt to figure out how to empty it. I have a 2760 but it came empty so I didn’t have to do anything 🤦🏼♀️
@@freshtraxxz3368 syringe?
I think I might just return it and buy a new one and hope that isn’t filled already.
@@freshtraxxz3368 good idea.
They turned out so beautiful 😍 love them both 🤍💙🩷 the swirls are turned out pretty cool 😊stay blessed love 🥰
Thank you!
Absolutely gorgeous!!!!
Ty 😊
I always love a little (or a lot) of glitter. They both are beautiful though. Going back to basics sometimes is just a fun tumbler to make. Thanks for sharing!❤
Thank you 😊
This is pretty!
Thank you
Nice
Thank you.
thanks for sharing
Love this!!! Can't wait to see how you designed the 3d printed pieces!!!!
Ty. I'm working on that video now.
Love it 😊
Thank you :)
Would love to know how to remove the ink from this printer
I have no idea. But why would you want to remove it? You would probably have to extract it using a syringe.
@@ItsACraftThingAlishaVirgilloI came to the comments with the same thing. My printer came filled already 🤦🏼♀️
They last with just a clear coat top coat?
A couple of clears coats. Yes. Polycrylic is a durable top coat.
I’m trying to print 4x9 images and it only prints 4x8.5. Help please
That sounds like a printing software issue not a printer issue. The printer itself is equipped to print 8 1/2 x 11.
Beautiful 😍 I’m going to invest in that mold. Awesome job! Stay blessed love 🥰
Thank you! You as well! 😘

@@ItsACraftThingAlishaVirgillo I honestly feel like we would be work friends if we worked together! Lol! My desk is full of rhinestone, glittered and 3D Printed treasures! 🤣
@@denisehaas7250 haha! Most definitely!
Your husband is a hero! ❤🎉
lol right!
How do i keep the tattoo from cracking during the drying process am I supposed to seal it right after i apply it ?
I've never had my tattoo crack, but you can seal it right away because it's basically dry once you pat it all dry and just make sure there's no water bubbles underneath the tattoo
Ok ty yeah I had some I call it cracking might be wrong one step I didn't do like you is tap it with wet napkin afterward...
Great idea looks awesome
Thank you! I have cuter Ones coming that I did with Arya 😁
Glad you're back. I was worried about you.
Awe. Thank you. I'm so sorry. I didn't even have the energy to do a video of what was going on.
I would like to know, can you apply the Tackett over and over on top of a tattoo that is already in place?
For what purpose?
Hi Alisha, thanks for this video! I’m putting a temp tattoo on a mirror; I haven’t seen a video on it but it should be the same process I would think. My only question is, when you say you seal it with ‘polycrylic’, is that the same as ModPodge? I’m new to the ModPodge train as well as transfers and temp tattoos, so I don’t want tousle the wrong thing to seal it and risk ‘clouding’ the colors of the tattoo. Also I notice you have your polycrylic in a squeeze bottle which seems fast and easy to use. I’ve seen yeas and nays on doing this because it may not work with Mod Podge. What’s your take?
Hi! So polycrylic is a water based sealant and it's consistency is on the watery side. Mod podge although you can seal with it, you have a greater chance of leaving streaks from application because it's not self leveling. I prefer the polyacrylic over the mod podge for that reason.

Adding blue tint to industrial clear plastics is pretty common, as it ages the blue is eventually overcome with the yellowing. It adds aging protection optically. When you sterilize plastic with radiation, you first lose the blue, gets more clear, then sometimes get a weird green or yellow. I'm not sure why blue works so well, probably because its opposite on the color wheel from yellow. People dont mind a blue tint, but yellow looks old and tired, so adding blue increases your shelf life of your product at least in peoples minds.
Also. Not all resins lose the yellow with the blue ink. Some of them turn green!
And an ugly green!@@ItsACraftThingAlishaVirgillo
Important information. Thanks
