Distressed American Flag Tumbler Tutorial 

I just did a glass using your guidance and boy oh boy, it's a beauty! Thanks so much for all you do!

You really broke that down to make it understandable. I will definitely give it a try. Love the look!

Thank you so much for step by step details, fantastic job. some videos out there they dont give the step by step and you nailed it. awesome thank you again

I love this one. Thank you so much for all that you do to help us. The descriptions & details that you provide are fantastic.

This is probably my favorite tumbler!! Absolutely LOVE it!! Awesome job!! 😍

Thank you, this makes it so much easier. Your videos are some of the very best!

This is gorgeous! At the beginning of your video, I thought it was a "wood" rustic design. Now that I know it's super easy to make, I may try my hand at this. Thanks!

Absolutely love this cup

I absolutely love your tutorials. I made one of these and it turned out great! Thank you

I will try a tumbler like that once I get my room fixed up for doing shirts & cup, thank you for the videos. 👍🏼

This is so great!! I have just started wanting to made tumblers and I just love how you explain everything and love this tumbler! My first one was a dirty pour and my second one will be this one hopefully!!😆 You have taught me everything I know so thank you and please don’t stop!!😁

Beautiful Old Glory 🇺🇸 . Great job an video. Thank you friend for the time you spend showing us tips, tricks, inspiring us. I appreciate you. hugs Sheryl 💙🎨💙

Thanks so much for sharing! Great tutorial! This is exactly what I was looking for -looks awesome, easy, rustic, america, with spray paint vs my usual glitter for the FD & 4th holidays coming up.

Thank You!!! For sharing, the tutorial step by step. I have not made the tumbler. But, I will say; worked on the flag and it was not as hard as I thought it would be. I seen your video a looooong time ago, I will stop being scared. I am going to make this tumbler for my brother. His son is in the Navy 🥰

Awesome! Really liked the alcohol ink method best... thank you for a great in depth tutorial!

It looks great! I e been trying to figure out the stripes being off and finally realized what it was! Yes, the stripes start with red but there are 7 short stripes and 6 long ones. The first long one should be white. I hope this helps! Thanks for the great videos!

This is a beautiful tumbler!!!

Love that cup, great job

Just got to watch your flag demo. Great job and thanks for sharing. I am hoping to do my first tumbler this weekend.

Love it.... I have decided switch style of flag for my grandpa

Thank You So Very Much You Do A Awesome Job Of Explaining How To Do Everything And I Totally Enjoy Watching Your Videos I’m Going To Try And Make This Tumbler pray it works out

Love this! Looks great!

LOVE THIS!!! Thank you for the great video!

I have done 4 so far and Thanks for the video Great Job

Fun project. Glad you got the stars correct, but it appears that the easier way to lay the stripes might be to lay all the stripes on the cup at one time after you cut them to size but before before you pick the 'red' stripe off. Lay it on the cup as a solid(but cut )and once in position, pick the red stripes off. Well done!

This is awesome! Thank you for sharing. I love seeing these distressed flags. Seeing your techniques are very helpful.

I love it!! I’d love to see a Railroad design. My husband is an electrician.

Awesome Job love it I will try to do one like that and one with the Puerto Rican flag... great job ....God bless

Beautiful job!

Beautiful tumbler! Just a word about the design: The order of the red and white stripes are symbolic. A white stripe always goes under the field of stars.

Great job and great video!!

Super great tutorial

Thank you so much you did a great job on this tutorial 😎

awesome!!!!! love your work thank you for sharing I will have to try this. This will go with my powder coated destressed American flags that I make like it was in battle.

Love this!!!!

Thanks! Great tutorial, very helpful :)

looks great !

Love this

I love it!!!

Wonderful tutorial

Great video easy to understand, would love to see a sneaker tumbler

Thanks for the inspiration. Definitely going to try this. I'm nervous because it will be my first time making a cup.

Thanks for sharing... great instructional video

Great job!

You know~ lol I did EXACTLY what you said NOT to do with those dang stars~ haha literally annoyed with myself now~ I didn't realize I had them on upside down until this morning~ =S Paints all dry~ I get to redo the ENTIRE tumbler~ lol I'll get this one way or another~ lol Thank you so much for this video~ The sizing helped~ So much has changed over the years with making tumblers~

This was so helpful and detailed!!! Thank you for all that you do 💕

Super awesome

That fourth red stripe from the top has to align on right with the end of the stars field so that the row immediately beneath the stars it’s white. Needless to say your cup is beautiful and it’s my most requested cup.

Thank you for this! I followed how you did it. Of course I'm sure I didn't do it just like you did. But my outcome was gorgeous! By far one of my top 3 that I've ever done. I wish I could share a pic lol

Love this cup! My tumbler is over 12 inches wide and 8 inches tall, so do I need to buy a larger mat and use a bigger sheet of vinyl? I am very new to all this. Thanks!

I made this tumbler today!!!

Amazing 😉

Great video. In the past you would say that you do NOT sand any of your cups? Is there a reason you are doing that now? Sincerely interested.

Thank you

I swear I go back and back to video every time I do a peek boo effect idk what it is but this def is my go to when I forget how I did it lol

I love watching your tutorials; very informative!!

Beautiful! ❤️ How can I make this if my computer isn’t working & can’t access my cutter software. Is there different method? Thank you 😊

Do you put anything on the inside of the cup to prevent spray in from spray paining and epoxy inside??

Love this cup! Instead of weeding the stripes first, wouldn’t it work to apply all of them (top & bottom separately bc of the curve) then weed off of the cup?

I don't even use tumblers but y'all are killin it with these designs and tutorials! I love how thorough you are and how angle conscious you are for your viewers. I'll assume any thumbs down came from folks who lack the awesome sauce ! I may just have to try this for a tool holder something. Too good to pass!

Great video, thanks! Does the epoxy need to be applied on a device that turns it? I am unfamiliar with the process but the cup is so cute I would like to try to make it.

Your tumbler is beautiful! Thank you for such a great tutorial. I am not familiar with Cricut software, as I have always used the Silhouette. But I do have a question/concern as I was hoping to use your template but noticed that when sizing you chose to “stretch” the design altering the shape. I was taught to always pull designs from the corners, to ensure that the image remains the same, only changing the size. I was curious as to why you decided the pull the image from the bottom (elongating the stars), versus pulling from the corners, and once the stars where the proper height (which would have made the width too long), then use your cutting tool (I’m sure Cricut has this, just like the Silouette) to trim the width? Which would have kept the stars in their original shape. Again- I’m not familiar with the Cricut software, so please forgive my ignorance and please do not think I’m trying to suggest that your way is incorrect. As I am truly curious as to your reasoning to stretch the shape (minimally distorting the stars shape) versus choosing to edit differently. Would something else (that is essential) have been lost in doing it differently? Does your software not allow for it? Or would it have created an alignment issue, somewhere else? Or something else totally- that I am not even considering???? Just am trying to understand the benefit and/or thoughts in choosing the option that you chose, as I love hearing and learning, whenever I see someone do something that differs from how I “was taught.” I’ve found some really good “tricks of the trade/hacks & time-savers,” over the years, by asking others, why they chose the particular method to do whatever it is that they were doing (not necessarily related to editing images or even to do with cutting software).

What are the dimensions you use for the Ozark Trail Tumbler 30 oz. I don't have access to a tape measurer to get an accurate measurement.

Very nice

What do you use to rotate the tumbler at the end. Awesome design.

What accessories do you have in your maker cups? What do you use them for? (Looks like roll on Benadryl?) 😊

Do I have to use alcohol ink for this or can I just do acrylic?

I'd love to buy one like this where can I find one?

To help with bleeding paint- your base coat is white and you have your stencil down spray it white again close to the edges (or the whole thing) of the stencil. That way if it bleeds it bleeds the color that is underneath. Once dried then spray it the color it is intended to be.

i keep missing something. when you uploaded to ds matt it was a print then cut then you clicked on the design access and pulled up another flag and then closed out that one and then your flag changed to a cut file. if its print then cut you have to print first and design space wont cut over a certain size your alert was on the flag before you pulled up the other one also. and like i said once you deleted the one flag your alerts were gone and it was changed to a cut. im lost.

What epoxy do you prefer?

Do you sell your tumblers? I love this one.

I love this! Your cup turned out beautiful!!!Could this be done with the smoke effect as well?

WOW THIS IS SO 😎 ~ Dame ~it 🤣 ~ another tumbler I just have to try making!! THANK YOU 😘!!

I am starting to do some Mugs any tips and how much I can Sales

Can you assist me in finding a good American flag template ?

Hi! So I got tumblers that have a sip lid, not a straw. The ones that have the hole on the lid to sip from. My resin is naked fusion resin, and is FDA compliment and food safe. Is it alright to drink from the cup that way once the resin is 100% cured? Thanks

can you please tell me what resin you recommend, I am trying to buy the gallon size. Thank you for all your help.

I'm a newbie, I made this tumbler, did not antique it and epoxies it. Can I run my finger over the epoxy with the paint and then epoxy again? Thank you so much I love your work!

why does my white coat of paint come up with the vinyl?

At 10:40 what is the paper called that u have used to stick the blue vinyl on to and smooth out for weeding on please? Is it the same as the blue vinyl but just clear?

I absolutely love this tumbler! Couldn't you not weed the stripes and lay it on the tumbler first then weed the white spaces? Thanks for the tutorial!

I'm making my 1st one and I put epoxy over it after I spray painted the cup. Is there a way I can still get the distressed look over the epoxy?

On my Cricut my flag is in one piece and will not let me ungroup to make two cuts. Why is that?

other than shrinking my image is there anything else i can do if it says is too big

So here's my question is you got the spray paint on the inside of the tumbler when spray painting it. How can you remove that spray paint

Mask around the field of stars before painting. Then mask the field of stripes near the stars to avoid overspray.

Hello! I’m trying to make this cup for fathers day and got everything you have used! But the moment I put epoxy on the cup it separates like not sticking in certain spots. Any tips?

Hi I was curious which type of cricut you use!

Did you seal after distressing the cup before you applied the epoxy? Beautiful cup by the way

Nice worn looking tumbler 🔴⚪🔵 Which technique do you like best?

HEY GIRL

Flame tumbler

Nice work! What is one like this going for?

How do you keep your cups from being sticky after they cure. What am I doing wrong

My blade cuts my 631and other material but it sometimes doesn't cut through, I have to press on the my design

Which Cricut do you recommend getting

Lol. Made this last week...

After you spray paint it put it in the oven @175 for a hour and your good to go

How do you get your flag in 2 parts?
