DTF Transfers are becoming increasingly popular with crafters as many realize they offer a lot more flexibility than sublimation transfers. DTF transfers are cutless, weedless full color transfers that are not only inexpensive and easy to apply, but they can go on any color or type of garment. A DTF printer is a high priced investment for a small business that plans to print transfers daily. But there are plenty of options for purchasing DTF transfers. In this tutorial I'll show you how to put DTF transfers on t shirts with a heat press whether you print them yourself or purchase the transfers. Once you have your DTF transfers, you want to make sure your heat press is warmed up to 338 degrees and set for 10-15 seconds. Before you begin, you'll need to make sure you know (from your DTF supplier) if the film used is hot or cold peel. Cold peel is most often used. Place your shirt directly on the press and give it a pre-press to get out any wrinkles or moisture. Put the DTF transfer directly onto the shirt with the film side facing up. Lower the upper platen of the heat press directly onto the transfer and apply medium, even pressure for 10-20 seconds. Do not use a cover sheet. TIP: If you're like me and having a hard time remember the exact times and temperature for DTF, you can download this free DTF time and temperature printable cheat sheet. Open the heat press. If you have cold peel DTF transfers, remove the shirt from the heat press and wait until the transfer is completely cool to the touch before carefully peeling off the transfer film. If your DTF Transfer starts to lift with the film, it's not cool enough yet. Now you want to repress at the same time and temperature again with a cover sheet to press the DTF transfer into the fibers of the t shirt. And that's it...it's that easy to put DTF transfers on t shirts! Want to learn more about the best desktop DTF printer for small businesses? Check out this DTF printer comparison.

For all you team moms and dads out there, check out this project for how to DIY a personalized backpack made from sports material. In this tutorial, you'll learn how to heat press on these sports drawstring bags and how to prevent burn marks and scorch marks from your heat press on the final project. Use your cutting machine of choice to cut and weed a personalized design into heat transfer vinyl. Note: weeding HTV on your heat press can make the process go much easier and faster. The stacked text design used in this project is a font found in the December Design Bundle. Here are the bags we are using. They are thin, slick, sports bag material and the manufacturer states they are made of polyester. If you can, get at least one more bag than you need, so you can use it for a test press (or possibly several test presses). We're using Siser Easyweed HTV which is pressed at 305 degrees F for 10-15 seconds. Using the extra bag to test on, place it on the heat press with the bottom metal grommets hanging off the edge with a pressing pillow placed inside. Place the weeded transfer face down and cover with a piece of parchment. Then, do your first test press using the HTV manufacturers recommendations for time and temperature. After pressing, remove the carrier sheet carefully. If you notice burn marks or scorch marks from your heat press, then you'll need to make adjustments. Siser says that Easyweed can be used at a temperature as low as 280 degrees F, but you'll need to increase press time to 20 to 30 seconds. This is why having an extra bag to do your test press with is really helpful! Luckily, our test press came out perfect with the recommended press settings for Siser Easyweed! So, we made another using the same settings from our successful test press. These sports backpacks are such a popular item right now and it's easy it is to personalize them with a trendy font once you've got the right settings! Grab the stacked font we used for these sports bags from the December Design Bundle.

If you're having trouble pressing multiple colors of heat transfer vinyl at the same time, then look no further! With this blog, we'll provide you with tips and tricks on how to perfectly space out your designs every single time, so you can create beautiful multi-color graphics without having to guess or waste extra vinyl. You will want to choose a design first. I fell in love with the Salt Water Heals Everything design from the Big Beach and Travel Bundle over on So Fontsy. Enjoy over 120 designs and 4 fonts for 89% off! Cut out all of the layers of vinyl and weed them. After you have that done, trim the transfer plastic almost to where the edge of the vinyl is. Removing any parts that may overlap the other parts of the design. Place all the pieces on your blank making sure there is no overlap of the transfer plastic and the vinyl. If this happens you will press the vinyl right on to the other transfer plastic. Adding some heat resistant tape helps to keep everything in place. Press it at 320 degrees for 12-15 seconds. With just a few tips and tricks, you can press multiple colors of heat transfer vinyl at the same time. No more guessing or wasting materials. Create beautiful projects with ease! Whether you're a beginner or an expert looking for a refresher, this blog is sure to help make your multicolor project a success.
