Oh February, the month after the shiny New Year. It’s no surprise that this time of year is typically slower for apparel decorating shops with the glimmer of the rush and sales increase of Christmas slowly fading before our eyes. However, your heat printing business doesn’t have to stall out just because Christmas has ended.
With February comes a new chapter in your business: Love.
In honor of this popular gift giving holiday I have decided to spread some lovey-dovey Valentine inspiration to the Tip Jar, using the Roland® GX-24 vinyl cutter and the Hotronix® FUSION® heat press.
The opportunities are endless so let your “head over heels” mind run with it. Enjoy!

How much time did you press the heart?? and then the letters??
Thanks!!!
Hi Glenda, thanks for your interest. The heart in Gloss was applied at 350 degrees for 10-15 seconds. The lettering in Glitter Flake was 320 degrees for 10-25 seconds.
