Hey, makers! If you’ve been in the DIY crafting space for a while, you’ve probably heard the excitement around DTF transfers. Maybe you’re done with spending hours weeding vinyl, or you’ve been wishing for full-color designs that other methods just can’t deliver. That’s exactly why I switched to Direct-to-Film (DTF) transfers, and let me tell you—it completely changed my workflow.

What is DTF?

DTF is a process where your design is printed directly onto a special film with adhesive powder. The result? A high-resolution, vibrant print that’s ready for pressing. The real magic happens when you apply it: just place it on your blank item, press it with heat, peel the film, and you’re done. No weeding, no layering, no complicated steps. The finish is soft, stretchable, and long-lasting, blending seamlessly with the fabric.

How DTF Works (Step by Step) DTF

Here’s how easy it is with Shirt-Envy DTF transfers:

1. Design It – Create your artwork with vibrant colors and details, even photos.
2. Upload & Order – Send your design to Shirt-Envy’s DTF order page. They’ll handle the printing for you, so no need to buy expensive printers.
3. Press It – Once your transfers arrive, simply use a heat press to apply them.
4. Hot Peel – Peel the film while it’s still hot for a smooth finish.
