How to Use the Cricut Mug Press
How to use the Screaming Cup Press
Making mugs is my favorite craft, և Cricut made it easy. Cricut Mug Press is a specially designed heat press for sublimation in mugs, glasses and other cylinders. Create a personalized mug from start to finish in half an hour or less - perfect for a last-minute gift.
Cricut Mug Press will change the rules of the game. Last year I made some sublimation cups in the oven և I love how they are made ... but I love that you don't have to use your kitchen to sublimate. The Mug Press is the perfect size for a handmade cushion. It heats up quickly and the cup cooks in about 5 minutes.
I got Cricut Mug Press for my guide. I love Cricut and have been with them for 5 years. It was a lot of fun creating with Cricut, let's get started.
Cricut Cup Press is only available in a well-packaged glass cup. For starters, I recommend purchasing a package.

Cricut non-melting ink:

Step 1 Design the mug
Create your look in Cricut Design Space. The cup size should be 4 x 9 inches. I also used a square, so I clicked the unlock icon to change the settings to a rectangle.
Then use the Shape tool to create circles in 2 dimensions. Use Rectangle և Circle, then select two layers and press the "Cut" button.
Delete all the extra circle layers so that you have a rectangle with a circle cut out. Now select your favorite font to perfectly fit the monogram to the 2 "frame. Then send the design to the creator for cutting. Rotate the image by clicking the Mirror button.
Step 2: Cut the ink
Place Infusible Ink on the mat, firmly holding the colored side facing up.
Then press "Start" to cut out the design.
I made a houndstooth background, then cut out the monogram using just this infusible ink.
Step 3. Prepare the cup
Clean the cup with the cloth it contains. Then place the cut-out monogram over the blank frame of the Infusible Ink background.
Then place the infusible ink in the cup so that the colored ink touches the cup. Secure the Infusible Ink transfer with heat resistant tape.
Step 4: Warm up the Cricut Cup Press
Attach the press to the Cricut Cup. On first use, the connection process takes a few minutes, but is very simple. Go back to the start menu and connect your Cricut Mug Press to your computer.
Step 5 Cricut Mug Press Time:
Now insert the mug into the Cricut Press mug և close the latch to secure the mug.
Cricut Mug Press heats the mug for about 5 minutes, turn on the light until it comes on. Then open the latch and remove the cup.
Warning, it's hot!
Let the cups cool completely, then remove the heat resistant tape և Infusible Ink Transfer և that's it.
The long-lasting ink transfers evenly to surfaces with vibrant and intense colors. The mug can be washed in the dishwasher or microwave, making it the perfect gift.
Perfect transmission, vibrant colors և endless possibilities. I am in love with mug making, this is complemented by the efficiency of the Cricut mug press.
