Sublimating Glass Cans in a Press AND an Oven!

Hey everybody, and welcome! Today we’re going to sublimate a 16 ounce glass ‘Libbey’ can in a press and in a convection oven, and we’re going to create a quick template for not only the design, but also for an inner decorative liner. I’ve also included both templates here in the description below.

I’m covering a LOT of information, so here’s a timeline of the video. Feel free to jump to any section you’d like to see!
