It’s Like Printing Money!

I thought I would give you a brief glimpse into the fun and exciting world of producing custom products.  When I first got started researching dye sublimation (the process used to create my products), I talked to a guy in a professional forum and he told me that a dye sub business was “like printing money”.  At the time, I wondered if he was joking or serious.  I have since answered the question for myself.  Let me introduce you to my latest creation, an 11 oz. black ceramic mug.

This looks like it came out pretty well, right?  Wrong!  Have a look from another angle.

Yes, the transfer was placed upside down!  Aaaaarrrggghh!  Printing money, all right!  Wonder if I can give this one to Mitch. ;)   Just kidding, although this goof-up is for sale at a very discounted rate if anyone wants it.
