Hello creative! Rita Barakat here today, I’m a mixed media artist, and I love drawing, painting, color and anything creative! Today we are using a sublimation door hanger for a Masterpiece in progress with Iron-on-Ink! My studio is in my home, so I thought I would make a hanger for the door to let others know when I’m working and there is a masterpiece in progress! You don't need any fancy equipment, like a printer, to get started.
Artesprix markers enable you to draw on regular printer paper and transfer it onto sublimation blank materials such as aprons, t-shirts, tumblers and more! This process is so easy and fun!
Step 3: With your finished design on the table face up, secure the Door Hanger face down with heat tape. Always tape around your design, never over it.
Pro Tip: I'm using the Artesprix Heat Press so I only need a couple pieces of heat tape, but if your using a handheld press or a home iron, you'll want to use more heat tape.
Step 4: Make a sublimation sandwich. The Iron-on-Ink design should be secured face down on the top side of the sublimation sandwich.
Step 5: Double check Time, Temperature, and Pressure instructions before doing your transfer. For the Door Hanger, the temperature needs to be 400℉, and the transfer time is 90 seconds.
Step 6: Peek test! Before you move any tape, peel back a small part of the paper to ensure you got a good transfer.
Step 7: Once you have confirmed your transfer was successful, reveal your design! When I saw those stunning bold colors on the surface I was so excited! Each time blows me away, there is such a difference from the color of the markers on the paper verses when they have been heat transferred.
See how it fits perfectly in my studio! Maybe you should make Artesprix door hanger for a Masterpiece in progress! And let everyone know that you have a masterpiece in progress! The doorknob hanger would look great on any color door!
I hope this inspires you to make something today! If this post inspired you to make something, share about it in the comments below! And if you decide you want to make a Door Hanger, snag one before the end of month and please leave us a link below, we would LOVE to see it!
See you next time!
