I need to make some koozies for a wedding, pretty simple they just want a monogram, but what do I use. I have a heat press and a vinyl cutter. Oh yeah, they are the round ones.
Thanks,
R

round ones? they aren't the triangular koozies? hehe just kidding, but seriously, do they make koozies in different shapes?
I'm not really being any help here, but I would like to know the procedure too cause this sounds like a great market for my area as the University of Florida has now been deemed the Number 1 party school in America.

if the British don't know what koozies are, then I highly recommend you start making them and selling them!
haha , a koozie is a soft cover for a cold drink, like a canned or bottled beer, to keep that drink nice and cool. they are big marketers cause they are easy to print on.
Re: What would be the best vinyl to use on koozies
Thanks for the posts, I just meant they weren't the collapsable kind when I posted they were round. I tried a couple last night and I think I can make it work, I just need to get some heat tape so that I don't have to try and hold the design and pull the press down on them at the same time.
Thanks for the help!

We just did a batch for a golf tournament.
We used the flat version from www.debcosolutions.com Neoprene.
We used Fashion Film from www.Stahls.com . We pressed at 160 for 20s, peeled cold, pressed for 5. I had parchment paper on the upper platen for protection.

not sure but you would get better results to your answer if you posted a new thread in the forum labeled "Does anyone know what font this is?", rather than posting in a thread talking about vinyl applications for koozies.
This is a discussion about What would be the best vinyl to use on koozies that was posted in the Vinyl Cutters (Plotters) and Transfers section of the forums.
