As my hubby & I are getting getting ready to head out for a weekend of adventuring in our Jeep XJ & roof top tent, I thought I would create us some cute camping mugs and shirts with sublimation. I don’t share a lot about sublimation, but I thought this one was a good one to share with you all. And who knows, if you like it I may share more about sublimation in the future. Feel free to leave comments below if you are interested. 🙂

If you have never sublimated before or are just new, I apologize for the lack of instructions. I would suggest you search out some YouTube videos for people that are giving great tutorials! Maybe in the future I will share more in detail. 🙂
I also wanted to update you guys on how these shirts and hoodies wash. They are fabulous! My husband is hard on clothes and his washed up so well, well besides the paint you got on it… Lol as you know with polyester you can get a lot of pilling, but I have found these all to be great. I will definitely buy more of them. The hoodies, and sweatshirts that I used are perfect for summer! They are cozy yet lightweight. They have some fleece lined crewnecks that I am going to be getting my hands on as well once they restock! I hear great things about them.
Also, the mugs are great! I see in the video that that hole is for a straw, which it still can be but it actually is the air hole. So if you keep it closed you just got small amounts of liquid, but if you open it up then you can take bigger drinks. Makes sense… They do really keep our drinks nice and hot! They do keep them nice and cold too! I tried it out with my almond Baileys on ice, and it was perfect!!
See our full Jeep setup and little of our adventure below. I will be sure to share as we make improvements and build the storage for our kitchen!
