I looked all over, trying to find a free template and I couldn't find anything great.


I decided to just make my own.


This template is made for printing on an 8.5x11 standard sheet of sublimation paper.


If you have a bigger printer, you can print 12 inches wide for the upper part of the tumbler!

Supplies Needed for 40 Ounce Sublimation Tumbler:



Supplies Needed for 40 Ounce Sublimation Tumbler: Sublimation Stanley Mug Sublimation Oven Epson Ecotank Printer Converted to Sublimation Sublimation Paper Heat Gun Shrink Plastic Heat Resistant Tape Heat Resistant Tape Dispenser (optional but super nice) Mug Templates (end of post) Design (I bought this off Etsy for $2)

Step 1: Design


Begin by downloading the FREE PNG template files for the 40 ounce mug.


All sublimation blanks are a bit different, so if you aren't buying this exact one from Heat Transfer Warehouse, it might not be the right size.


Also, if you have a Sawgrass printer that can print 11x17, then you can scale the top template up to 12 inches across instead of just 11 inches across.


This template is made for regular 8.5x11 printers.

Use a program like photoshop (pixlr is free) or canva to design your tumbler wrap.


I use photoshop from the olden days because we bought it and I'm very familiar with it.


Overlay the images you like over the template as a guide, overlap and lay them out the way you like it.


Then select the outside of the template and remove anything outside the guide line.


Then remove the template, reverse your image and print your design.

Step 2: Tape and Heat


After printing, cut around the design loosely and use heat resistant tape to adhere it to the tumbler blank.


Use a lint roller to remove any dust or debris before taping.


Cover the mug in shrink plastic.


I didn't have a sleeve big enough for the top part of the mug...so I cut mine down the side and taped it on the mug and shrunk it around the mug as best as I could...and it worked!


Then plug in the Sublimation oven and set it to 365*F and 9 minutes, place the shrink wrapped mug inside.


The oven will get to temperature and then begin the countdown.

After the heating process, remove from the oven and let the sublimation mug cool down completely.

I love how amazing the sublimation transfers look!


When printing with a sublimation printer, the ink comes out looking like different colors and pretty dull and muted.


It surprises me every single time I heat press to see how vibrant and wonderful the colors actually look on the blank!


I love sublimation!

Step 4: Handle


Now use a screwdriver to screw the handle on the mug.


It was a bit tricky to get that inside screw, but I managed to after some fidgeting.


Oh, make sure the mug is installed so the screw does not show from the top or looking down on the lid...you want it to be underneath.

These Stanley dupe mugs are the best.


The size is awesome, they still fit in the car drink holder because of the narrower base, but they can hold a lot of drink.


The lid screws on top, to prevent leaking and pop offs.


The black cover on the lid moves around to cover the sip opening...or allows for a straw to be placed through.
