Heat transfer vinyl

What is heat transfer vinyl?

Heat transfer vinyl, often called HTV, is a special type of vinyl designed to be applied to textiles using heat and pressure. With the help of a heat press or an iron, designs made from HTV can be transferred onto fabrics such as cotton, polyester, or blends. This makes it ideal for creating personalised clothing, tote bags, cushions, and other textile projects. Heat transfer vinyl comes in a wide variety of colours and finishes, including matte, glossy, glitter, and holographic, so you can always find a style that fits your design.

Different types of heat transfer vinyl

At Vaessen Creative, you will find many types of heat transfer vinyl within our cutting foils collection. Some are designed for simple, single-colour designs, while others feature special effects such as metallic or glow-in-the-dark finishes. HTV is compatible with plotter machines and vinyl cutters, which cut out your designs with precision before they are pressed onto fabric. Because it is flexible and durable, HTV is a favourite material for both beginners and advanced makers.

Creative hobbies & projects with heat transfer vinyl

Heat transfer vinyl is perfect for many creative hobbies. In summer crafting, you can design colourful T-shirts, caps, or tote bags for festivals and holidays. In Valentine’s crafting, HTV can be used to add romantic quotes or designs to cushions, aprons, or even matching shirts. Another inspiring idea is crafting with children, where you can let kids design their own motifs, which can then be transferred onto clothing or bags. HTV makes it easy to create unique and personalised textile items for every season or event.

Why choose heat transfer vinyl for your projects?

The main advantage of heat transfer vinyl is its professional-quality finish. Designs look vibrant, smooth, and last through many washes. It is also highly versatile, as you can layer different colours and finishes to achieve detailed, multi-dimensional designs. HTV saves time compared to sewing or fabric painting and gives consistent results with every press. Whether you want to make personalised gifts, seasonal decorations, or custom fashion items, heat transfer vinyl is a reliable and creative choice.
