What it is for
Glassware is for evenings and occasions: a whisky glass for a retirement, a pint glass for a birthday, a set for a wedding.
On clear glass there is no white background behind the print; very pale colours almost disappear.
Dye sublimation
Sublimation prints the design onto transfer paper with dye ink; heat then turns the dye into a gas that bonds into a polyester coating or polyester fibre.
Colour becomes part of the surface rather than a layer on top, so it is vivid and does not crack or peel. It cannot print white: white in a design shows as the colour of the item itself, which is why sublimated items are white or pale.
There is no texture at all — on fabric you cannot feel the print, and on a mug it is under a smooth coating.
Designs that suit it
Glass suits line work, monograms, names and dates. Light shows through it, so clean single-tone designs read better than photographs.
The print area is on the front: 900 × 525 pixels, about 3.0 × 1.8 in at 300 dpi — a wide, landscape area. The studio generates the design at that size, so it is printed from a full-resolution file rather than an enlarged preview.
Full-colour photographs, paintings and edge-to-edge patterns. Less suited: designs that rely on white ink, and important detail right at seams, handles or edges where the transfer wraps.

Examples by Vessim: public-domain art and our own lettering, not studio output. The studio designs yours from your sentence.
Where it is printed, and when it arrives
It is printed to order in Oakville, ON, Canada, then shipped: 2–5 business days to Canada ($11.77 CAD for the first item) and 5–15 business days to the US ($27.11 CAD). Each window counts from the day the order is placed and includes printing.
Printed in North America, so it ships without an overseas leg and no import duties apply within North America.
To arrive by Christmas 2026 with standard shipping, order by December 18 for Canada and December 4 for the US — that is the Shot Glass's own longest window counted back from December 25.

- Of the 31 glassware in the catalogue, 1 costs less and 29 cost more.

Before you order
How long does the Shot Glass take to arrive?
To Canada, 2–5 business days, with first-item shipping at $11.77 CAD; to the US, 5–15 business days ($27.11 CAD). It is printed to order in Oakville, ON, Canada, and the window counts from the day you order, printing included.
Can I put a photo on the Shot Glass?
Yes. Sublimation reproduces photographs in full colour with no texture. White areas print as the item's own colour, so a photo with a white background blends into it. The print file is 900 × 525 pixels on the front, so a photo should be at least that size to print sharply.
What colours does the Shot Glass come in?
2 colours: Black, White.
When should I order the Shot Glass for Christmas?
With standard shipping, by December 18 to Canada and December 4 to the US. Those dates count this product's longest delivery window back from December 25 in business days. Express shipping at checkout, where it is offered, shortens the window.
How do I look after the Shot Glass?
It is sublimation-printed, and that sets the care. Wash cold, inside out. Tumble dry low. No bleach; the colour is in the fibre, so it will not crack.
