How Do You Do Sublimation on Mugs With Cricut?

Sublimation on mugs with Cricut is a unique way to create customized mugs with ease. Sublimation is a process where special inks are used to transfer images and words onto a mug.

It’s an ideal method for creating personal gifts, promotional items and more. With the help of Cricut, the process of sublimation on mugs has been made easy and efficient.

The first step in sublimating a mug with Cricut is to choose the image you’d like to transfer onto the mug. Once you have an image in mind, you can upload it into the Design Space software that comes with your Cricut machine.

Once your image is uploaded, it’s time to set up your machine for sublimation. You’ll need a special type of ink called sublimation ink as well as a heat press or oven depending on which type of mug material you’re using.

Once your machine is all set up, you’ll need to print out your design onto transfer paper using the sublimation ink. After that, take the printed paper and place it face down onto the mug surface.

Make sure there are no air bubbles between the paper and the mug surface for best results. When everything is in place, you’ll then need to use either a heat press or an oven depending on what type of mug material you’re using for about two minutes at 400 degrees Fahrenheit (204 Celsius).

Once complete, remove the paper from the mug surface and discard it accordingly. You should now have a beautiful image permanently imprinted onto your mug! To finish off, use a damp cloth to wipe off any excess ink residue from around the edges of your design if needed.

Conclusion:

Sublimating mugs with Cricut is an easy way to create unique personalized mugs quickly and efficiently. With just a few simple steps like uploading an image into Design Space software, setting up your machine for sublimation, applying specialized ink onto transfer paper and using either an oven or heat press at 400 degrees Fahrenheit (204 Celsius) – you can have beautiful designs transferred onto any type of mug material in no time!
