Behind the Scenes: Creating Your Personalized 20 OZ Sublimation Tumbler

At HV Homestead, we believe every product should tell a story—your story. Our personalized 20 OZ sublimation tumblers are designed to bring your unique ideas to life with exceptional quality and craftsmanship. Today, we’re taking you behind the scenes to show how we create these durable, beautifully designed tumblers that keep your drinks hot or cold and make every sip more special.

Step 1: The Design Process

It all begins with your vision. Whether it’s a cherished photo, a favorite quote, or a custom design, our team works with you to ensure your idea is perfectly tailored for the tumbler. We carefully format the artwork to fit the full wrap design, ensuring every detail is vibrant and clear.

Our sublimation process allows for high-quality, full-color prints that won’t peel or fade. We ensure your design enhances the tumbler's sleek finish, turning it into a functional piece of art.

Step 2: Printing the Design

Once your design is finalized, we transfer it onto high-grade sublimation paper using specialized printers and inks. These inks are designed to bond with the stainless steel surface during the heat transfer process, ensuring long-lasting, vivid imagery.

The key to success here is precision. We meticulously measure and align the design to wrap seamlessly around the tumbler, creating a flawless appearance.

Step 3: Sublimation Magic

Here’s where the magic happens! The tumbler is carefully wrapped with the sublimation paper and secured to prevent any shifting. Then, it’s placed into a specialized heat press designed for cylindrical objects.

At temperatures of around 400°F, the heat activates the sublimation ink, transforming it into a gas that fuses directly with the tumbler’s coating. This process ensures the design becomes a permanent part of the tumbler—no peeling, fading, or cracking.

Step 4: Quality Inspection

After cooling, the tumbler is unwrapped and thoroughly inspected. We check for color accuracy, design alignment, and overall finish to ensure every tumbler meets our high-quality standards. If it doesn’t pass inspection, it doesn’t leave our workshop.

Step 5: Adding the Final Touches

Each tumbler is completed with a non-slip silicone base, a secure lid, a reusable straw, and a straw cleaner. These thoughtful details ensure your tumbler is not only beautiful but also functional for everyday use.

We package it securely to prevent damage during shipping, so it arrives at your doorstep ready to impress.
