Hot Fix Rhinestones on Transfer?

[Mom2Christina]

Have any of you tried to iron on a hot fix rhinestone on a transfer? Just wondering if that would work, but something tells me ironing on a transfer twice just would not work. Ideas?

I used the "Be Dazzler" kit sold at Michaels on a couple of shirts. Worked great. Sorry but I don't remember the cost. (the thumbs down, above, was added by mistake)

When I tried the iron/heat kind...they ironed on fine but didn't stay on when I washed the shirts. My sister-in-law bought the stick on kind at Wal-Mart and says she has washed her shirts 5 times and they haven't come off.

Any one care to post pics of how they used the rhinestones?? I'm always afraid of over doing it!

Did you just iron them on a shirt or over a transfer?

I ironed them on the transfer but I used parchment paper between the iron and crystal/transfer and they stayed for the initial wearing of the t-shirt but fell off in subsequent washes. If you iron them directly to the t-shirt they will stay. I was told by a local t-shirt shop that the heat crystals will adhere to t-shirt material and even to screenprint but they do not stick well to transfer paper.

As far as the stick on kind from Wal-mart my sister-in-law stuck them directly to the transfer and said that they have not come off through 5 washes.

Hope that helps!
