Sublimation Test Kitchen

A 2-Day Virtual Hands-On Sublimation Class 

Grab your apron and join us on Sept. 10 and 11, 2026 - we’re heading into the Sublimation Test Kitchen!

Ready to experiment with sublimation and discover just how much you can create with your Brother SP-1 Sublimation Printer and the Artspira app?

In this fun, hands-on 2-day virtual class, we’re going to learn by doing! You’ll receive four different sublimation blanks to experiment with as we walk through the process of creating your own personalized sublimation projects from start to finish.

But here’s the best part…

There is no “everyone makes the exact same project” in this class!

Instead, you’ll learn how to use YOUR own photos, artwork and ideas, along with designs available in Artspira, to create projects that are completely unique to you.

Together, we’ll learn how to:

• Import your own photos and images into Artspira
• Choose and work with built-in Artspira designs
• Resize and position designs for different sublimation blanks
• Print your designs using the Brother SP-1 Sublimation Printer
• Understand the basics of pressing different types of sublimation blanks
• Learn what works, what doesn’t- and WHY!
• Gain the confidence to start creating sublimation projects on your own

What's in Your Test Kitchen?

During our two days together, we'll experiment with four different types of sublimation blanks:

Ceramic Coaster
Learn the basics of sublimating onto a hard ceramic surface while creating a coaster that's uniquely yours.

Refrigerator Magnets
Small projects are perfect for experimenting! Try photos, artwork, sayings or Artspira designs while learning how sizing can completely change a project.

Dish Towel
We're moving from hard surfaces to fabric! You'll learn what changes when sublimating onto a soft blank and how to size and position your design.

Glass Picture Frame
Our grand finale! Discover how sublimation works with glass while creating a beautiful personalized frame using a favorite photo, design or combination of the two.

This Isn't About Making Four Projects.

It's about learning what you can do after the class is over.

Think of these four blanks as your Sublimation Test Kitchen. We'll experiment with different surfaces, sizes, images and techniques so you can see firsthand how sublimation works.

By the end of our two days together, you won't just have four finished projects—you'll understand how to take an idea from “I'd love to put this on something!” to a finished sublimation project using Artspira and your Brother SP-1.

Bring your photos. Bring your ideas. Bring your creativity.

I'll bring the Test Kitchen.

Let's experiment!
