Get my free nature watercolor design files at https://jennifermaker.com/sublimation... ! Sublimation on acrylic is my favorite way to showcase illustrations and photos on keychains, nightlights, and photo panels! You don’t even need to buy acrylic with a sublimation coating or use a spray to add one! The detail and color possible with sublimation printing is hard to beat for home crafters and small businesses. But combining it with acrylic pieces really makes your work stand out! There are some special tips and tricks to acrylic sublimation blanks (did you know you can control their shape? SO cool!) so let me show you what I’ve learned! I appreciate every subscriber.
