Make Money with Sublimation: A Step-By-Step Guide
So, you’re interested in sublimation, huh? You’ve seen some of the cool t-shirts and hats and you want to learn more about how this process works?
Well, look no further, because I’m going to be sharing with you my complete guide on how to make money with sublimation!
I will walk you through all of the basics of the process, and give you tips on how to get started. Let’s get started!
What is sublimation?
Sublimation is the process of changing a substance from solid to gas, for example when water changes from ice to water vapor. The word sublimation comes from the Latin sublimescere, which means to sublime. When something sublimes, it becomes a gas without first becoming liquid.
This is a physical change that occurs at the molecular level and has nothing to do with one’s mood or emotional state. So how can you make money off of this physical process? You can sell your art or images on T-shirts, mugs, keychains, posters, and more!
What are some ways to use sublimation?
Sublimation is the process of changing a solid to a gas, and then cooling it back into a solid again. There are many ways that sublimation can be used to make money. One way is to create artistic t-shirts.
The clothing industry is worth billions of dollars each year, and the demand for t-shirts is increasing every day.
By making your own t-shirts, you can enter this lucrative market by simply buying an inexpensive printer and some fabric paint at your local craft store. You can also use sublimation to create custom coffee mugs, wall art, or even mouse pads.
Sublimating Promotional Products
If you’re looking for a way to make money, sublimating promotional products is a great solution. It’s an easy and inexpensive way to create your own products for personal use or for sale.
There are many reasons why it’s the best choice, like being affordable and low risk. It’s also perfect for beginners as it requires no special equipment. In this step by step guide I’ll show you how to get started!
Making Shirts from Photos
- Gather supplies. You will need a t-shirt and a photo printed on paper that is the size of your shirt. You may also want some fabric paint, but this is optional. You can find most of these things at a craft store or online; Etsy has some good deals on shirts, too.
- Cut out the photo to the size of your shirt so it fits in the center and make sure it’s centered by eye – this part can be tricky!
3.Tape down one side of the photo onto your shirt so you can flip it over easily when you are done painting each side without messing up the picture or smudging it with paint from your fingers. - Paint both sides of the photo with fabric paint (or glue). It takes a while for fabric paint to dry, so if you’re in a hurry wait at least 24 hours before wearing your shirt.
- When the paint has dried, peel off the tape carefully and admire your handiwork!
Selling Handmade T-Shirts
If you’re looking for an easy way to make money from home, sublimation might be just what you’re looking for.
With a few supplies and some know-how, you can make your own custom t shirts and sell them in your store or online. It’s a quick and cost effective way to start a business.
Consider the design of your t shirt carefully before beginning. You’ll want to think about how many colors it will need, where the design will be placed on the shirt, and how big it will be.
For a simple design that only needs one color or one color plus white (like most logos), you’ll need one sheet of transfer paper per shirt. For a design that includes two colors, you’ll need two sheets of transfer paper per shirt.
For designs with more than three colors, you may find it easier to print the artwork onto fabric using an inkjet printer rather than trying to use pre-printed transfers – this requires much more complicated printing software but there are many free programs available if you have access to a computer and printer.
Transfer papers come in different sizes – 4×4 inch sheets are best for designs up to 8 inches wide by 10 inches tall; 8×8 inch sheets work best for designs up to 12 inches wide by 15 inches tall; 12×12 inch sheets work best for designs up to 18 inches wide by 24 inches tall.

Conclusion
Sublimation is a great way to make some money, and it’s pretty easy! To get started, make sure you have a photo that can be printed on a T-shirt. From there, create an account on Etsy or Redbubble and upload your design.
It takes less than five minutes to set up an account and upload your design. Once you have it uploaded, set the price of your product; this will depend on how much you want to sell your shirt for.
Remember that the more shirts you sell, the more money you will make!
