How to Make Sublimation Keychains

Ready to make some sublimation keychains? I couldn't decide on just one type so I actually have four options for you. From plastic to acrylic to faux leather and neoprene, you can make keychains with your sublimation printer easily. These keychains make great gifts for anyone on your list or you can just make a few for yourself. Try adding monograms for custom keychains that are personalized to your recipient!

Thanks for getting straight to the point! Great video x

Thank you Angie xx Love your video's. I tried the link for the frosted acrylic keyrings and it didn't work. Is there another link you could recommend please? I am in Australia.

how did you print your sublimation? Did you have to measure the circles, and then did you have to cut them yourself?

[cherylemonroe]

if doing a clear acrylic do I use the same process as the frosted method

Great video.
When you press the frosted acrylic blank does the paper stick to the blank after pressing? I find some paper sticks to the blanks and needs to be removed with water and rubbing it off. When this happens, am I pressing to hot? Should I remove the paper hot or cold? Thank you very much.

Hi. Is it possible to sublimate this blanks using a sublimation oven? If so, how and which would be the parameters of time and temperature?

[greedygamblerslots]

Every time I press and sublimate on neoprene Koozies. The neoprene gets completely flat and squashed. Doesn’t look right. Am I using too much pressure. Can I use minimal pressure. Or should I get a Cricut heat press instead?

[BevSeagg]

My PU leather key chains are still printing out with a dull finish. Do you have any suggestions please?

[SonjaColeman-bm]

were do you buy the sublimation paper from and gloves

When I removed the sub paper from the acrylic after heating and soaking, I have a hazy film on my acrylic. What can I do to fix that? I removed the paper with magic eraser and then wiped with a baby wipe but the foggy film remains. Thank you.

What kind of paper are you wrapping items in for pressing? Looks thinner than butcher paper so thought I' ask. Thank you.

[nanette]

Thank you so much for this video. I noticed that you didn’t remove the silver ring from the lanyard keychain…. Does it not get hot or damaged when pressing? I thought they had to be removed before pressing.

Can you do sublimation on acrylic blanks

[jenniferdizney]

When you did the glitter on side of key chain, was it exact cut? What was temp?

[yolandabranner]

Nice but no sublimation printer. Can I not use infusible ink?

[d.l.daniel]

Is it possible to apply HTV to any of the blanks, AFTER applying the sublimation?

[jillianknutson]

I am having trouble with sublimation on a 4x6 cast acrylic sheet. The acrylic warps while in the heat press and I don't get an even print. I've tried reducing the temperature and pressure - started at 400 degrees and lowered to 385. Any thoughts on what else to try?

Ordered from Etsy. How do I print all the sayings on one page for sublimation. This is probably a really simple thing.
