Whether you're a seasoned crafter or just dipping your toes into the world of DIY apparel, one thing is certain: the quality of your materials can make or break your project. At Craft Avenue, we understand how important it is to have reliable, premium vinyl that delivers vibrant results every time. That’s why we proudly offer Siser Heat Transfer Vinyl (HTV)—a trusted name in the crafting world that’s known for performance, durability, and ease of use.
Why Choose Heat Transfer Vinyl for Custom Apparel?
Heat transfer vinyl, commonly known as HTV, is a versatile material that allows crafters to create personalized apparel and accessories with ease. Whether you're designing custom t-shirts, hoodies, tote bags, or even throw pillows, HTV makes it possible to turn a blank canvas into something uniquely you.
HTV is especially popular among small business owners, hobbyists, and DIY enthusiasts because it doesn’t require industrial equipment to use. With a cutting machine, a weeding tool, and a household iron or heat press, you can create DIY apparel crafts that look professionally made.
Siser HTV: A Crafter’s Favourite
When it comes to craft vinyl, not all brands are created equal. At Craft Avenue, we’ve chosen to stock Siser HTV because of its proven track record in both performance and reliability. Siser products are known for their smooth cutting, easy weeding, and excellent durability—even after multiple washes.
Some of our best-selling products include:
-
Siser EasyWeed® HTV – Known for its pressure-sensitive carrier, making it incredibly easy to position and reposition your designs before heat application.
-
Siser Glitter HTV – Add sparkle to your custom apparel crafts with vibrant glitter finishes that don’t flake off.
-
Siser Stretch HTV – Perfect for garments with a bit of stretch like leggings or athletic wear.
Whether you're customizing a onesie for a baby shower or designing matching family shirts for a vacation, Siser has an HTV option to bring your vision to life.
Explore the Possibilities of DIY Apparel Crafts
Custom t-shirts are just the beginning. DIY apparel crafts can extend to caps, shoes, aprons, team uniforms, dance costumes, and even fabric-based home décor like pillow covers. At Craft Avenue, we’ve seen our community use HTV crafts for everything from birthday gifts and bridesmaid proposals to small business product lines and school spirit wear.

HTV Craft Tips for Beginners
If you’re just getting started with HTV crafts, here are a few tips to make the process smoother:
-
Mirror Your Design: Always remember to mirror your image before cutting, since you’ll be pressing it face-down onto your garment.
-
Use the Right Settings: Each type of Siser HTV has different heat, pressure, and peel instructions. Be sure to check the product guide.
-
Invest in a Good Weeding Tool: Removing excess vinyl is much easier with a sharp, ergonomic vinyl weeding tool (which you can also find at Craft Avenue!).
-
Test on Scrap Fabric: Practice your press on a scrap piece before applying to your final product.
