Let’s Siesta – Vibrant Mexican Fiesta Typography with Sombrero and Guitar on Lime Green Stripes
Ready to turn any ordinary day into a colorful Mexican celebration? Meet our “Let’s Siesta” DTF transfer – where taking a nap becomes a festive art form!
The Story Behind the Design:
Legend has it that Maria’s guitar-playing cousin Pablo was so talented at afternoon siestas that he could sleep through his own mariachi performances. One day, while dreaming under his favorite sombrero, he invented the perfect motto: “Let’s Siesta!” Soon, the whole village adopted this philosophy, proving that sometimes the best fiestas happen in your dreams. Now you can bring Pablo’s legendary siesta spirit to any garment with this delightfully vibrant design.

First Press –
-Position the shirt or fabric onto the heat press with nothing on it.
-Make sure any collars, seams, buttons, etc. are off the heat press. If this is not possible, use a heat press pad or pillow to elevate the area you will be pressing up so you get even pressure
-Lint roll the shirt (if needed) to get anything lint or fuzz off the garment where you will be pressing
-Press the shirt for 3-5 seconds to get any wrinkles or humidity out of the shirt.
Second Press –
-Crease the DTF transfer to find the midpoint down the length of the transfer.
-Position the DTF transfer correctly onto the shirt. We recommend using a t-shirt guide or laser system to get proper alignment.
-Make sure the white glue part is down on the shirt and the design is visible from above
-Press the shirt for 10 seconds (8 seconds for polyester or delicate fabrics).
-Remove the top film, starting from the corner and pull across (not up) until the film is completely removed
NOTE-
-The DTF adhesive does not full bond as well with canvas material because it has “looser” open areas which do not imbed as well until cooled
-Fine lines have less glue due to their design and may not fully stick until cooled
-For these situations, we recommend waiting to cold peel, even though this is a instant peel film.
-Once you have removed the film, place the shirt back on the heat press for the final press
Third Press-
-Place a finishing sheet on top of your design. This can be a sheet of teflon, canvas, etc. that protects and helps embed your design and make the design feel better on the shirt.
-Press for 5 more seconds then remove the finishing sheet and t-shirt from your press.
