What is sublimation?

🎨 What the Heck is Sublimation? (And Why It's Nerdy Magic)

At Nerdibles, we love turning ordinary things into awesome things. One of our favorite ways to do that? Sublimation. Sounds like a spell from Harry Potter, right?

Well, in a way… it kind of is.

🔥 So What Is Sublimation?

In simple terms, sublimation is like tattooing a design into a product — but for mugs, shirts, tote bags, and all sorts of goodies.

We take a digital design (like your pet dressed as a Jedi, or your favorite quote from The Office), print it with special ink onto transfer paper, and then heat it up with a press. The heat turns the ink into a gas (without becoming a liquid first — science!), and the design becomes part of the item itself. It’s not a sticker. It’s not a patch. It’s in there for life, baby.

🧪 Why Is That Cool?

  • No peeling, cracking, or fading — your custom tee will survive wash after wash.
  • Super vibrant colors — they pop.
  • Great for gifts — inside jokes, family photos, or your D&D group's logo? Yes, please.
  • Limitless possibilities — mugs, coasters, puzzles, mousepads, even socks!

👕 What Can You Sublimate?

We can sublimate on all kinds of polyester-coated or synthetic items. Here's just a few:

  • T-shirts (must be mostly polyester — cotton lovers, we still love you too)
  • Mugs (yes, coffee tastes better in a custom mug)
  • Tote bags (your fandom, your style)
  • Mousepads (because even your desk deserves flair)
  • Coasters, puzzles, keychains… even baby onesies!

😎 Why Nerdibles?

Because we’re local, we’re creative, and honestly... we’re kind of nerds about this stuff. We love working with customers to bring quirky, clever, heartfelt, and completely off-the-wall ideas to life. If you can dream it, we want to help you wear it, sip from it, or gift it.

📅 Ready to Make Some Magic?

Swing by the shop or send us your idea online — we'll help you pick the perfect blank and whip up something totally you.

💡 Pro tip: Sublimation also makes great group gifts, class shirts, party favors, and holiday presents!
