Instructions for gluing iron-on stickers
Before attaching the iron-on transfer to clothing, test it on a small, inconspicuous area to see what temperature the material can withstand.
Heat the iron to this temperature, turn off the steam and cut the sticker along the outline of the design.
Smooth the garment as smoothly as possible and make sure there are no folds or seams where you are gluing it.
After this, heat the place where the sticker will be with an iron, and then apply the sticker to the clothes with the front side up, cover with tracing paper or a clean sheet of paper and press with the heated sole of the iron with force for 10-15 seconds.
If the drawing is large, glue one part first, then the other.
Pay special attention to small elements and edges, ironing them thoroughly and firmly with the tip of the iron.
Let the paper cool for 5-10 minutes, then remove it. Done!
