What is transfer paper?

Transfer paper is a special type of paper that is used in crafting, printing, and other creative projects. It is designed to transfer images, designs, or text onto another surface, such as fabric, wood, metal, or plastic.

There are two main types of transfer paper: heat transfer paper and transfer paper for use with transfer pens or pencils. Heat transfer paper is used with a heat press or iron to transfer a design onto fabric, while transfer paper for pens or pencils allows for hand-drawn or printed designs to be transferred onto various surfaces.

Transfer paper is typically coated with a special layer that can be activated by heat, pressure, or water. When the paper is exposed to the appropriate activating agent, the design on the paper is transferred onto the desired surface.

Transfer paper is commonly used in creating custom T-shirts, tote bags, pillows, and other personalized items. It is also used in crafting, scrapbooking, and other DIY projects. Transfer paper is available in various sizes, colors, and finishes to suit different projects and needs.
