These pillows are so cute and are 100% polyester making them great for sublimation! I have pressed them with a Valentine’s Day design! They are a beige color so I recommend dark colors like black, brown and red on them!

    Let’s Get Started

    Print Your Design

    Print your design. I use Illustrator and Photoshop as they allow me to use my printer profile through the software. Make sure to reverse it!

    Center Design

    Find the center of the pillow so you can center your design.

    I pin the center to make it easier to line up later.

    Fold Paper in half and make a light crease at top.

    Spray Design with Adhesive

    Mist transfer with adhesive so that it stays in place when being pressed.

    Line up small crease with the pin to make sure design is centered.

    Make sure to add butcher on top of transfer paper to protect the press!

    Press

    I pressed at 390 degrees for 1 minute with medium to light pressure(yes, I know I could use the timer on the press, I just prefer the other one)

     

    All Done!

    Remove the transfer and stuff with pillow! These are so comfy!

         

    XOXO,

    Jane
