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 your design!
Spray Design with Adhesive
Mist transfer with adhesive so that it stays in place when being pressed.
Center Design
Make sure to add butcher on top of transfer paper to protect the press!
Press
I pressed at 400 degrees for 1:15 minute with medium to heavy pressure(yes, I know I could use the timer on the press, I just prefer the other one)
Cover With Something Heavy
After you press, my edges were curled up so while it was still hot I smooshed it un between two boards and then stood on them(for good measure)
Frame and Enjoy!
XOXO,
Jane
