Hi Everyone, I'm Natasha, and i would like to join your little world :smile: I am looking for a change in my life, i have for the past 10 years worked for an elderly (90 year old) lady, who unfortunately has gone into hospital due to her failing health and she will not be returning to her home as she will be entering a nursing home and so i will become unemployed within the next few weeks. So i need a change. I am really interested Dye Sublimation. i have looked all over the internet and Youtube and i'm here asking for some pointers- if you would be so kind! ideally i would like to start with Gold/silver foil and Glitter HTV on coffee mugs and home accessories. Does anyone have any experience in this that they wouldn't mind giving me some advice? i have struggled to find Metallic foiled ceramic tutorials- can this be done? i have seen the 3D Heat Press - is anyone familiar with the machine? or is this too amateur for this forum? i have just realised that maybe i shouldn't be asking questions in this post :eek: if you managed to read until the end i salute you!

i hope i haven't offended anyone or broken any rules:biggrin:..

kind regards,

Newest Newbie Natasha

With this system all you need is a cheap mono laser printer and a mug press. Print image in black ,press and peel; and you have gold or silver graphic.

Hi, this is my first forum, so I'm hoping you will see this!!

oh my goodness. Jimbo- thank you so so much. This is exactly what I'm looking for, thank you for taking the time to provide the link too! Just one more question if I may... if I wanted to print in ceramics other than mugs, is there something that would take bigger items? I.e. Bowls, plates etc?

Thanks so much again I really do appreciate your help

Natasha 😊
