UV DTF Decal, Pearls & Petals Seahorse Tumbler Decal 3-Inch Small

On glossy tumblers and mugs, the UV DTF decal creates a vibrant seahorse motif designed for hard, smooth surfaces like glass, acrylic, and plastic. Size selected refers to the approximate width of the design; height varies proportionally. This ready to press option and cup sticker alternative gives a waterproof finish and scratch resistant surface without a heat press, while the DTF fabric transfer counterpart requires a heat press for apparel. Each permanent label ships as a transfer or adhesive design only—garments and tumblers are not included—so verify surface compatibility and size before ordering to ensure correct tumbler art placement precisely.

How this design works

Pearls & Petals Seahorse artwork is supplied in two formats so you can choose the best application for your project. The UV DTF decal is formulated for direct application to hard, smooth surfaces—think insulated tumblers, glass cups, and acrylic pieces—where a waterproof finish and scratch resistant surface are priorities. The DTF fabric transfer is a separate transfer sheet intended for compatible fabrics such as shirts, sweatshirts, and tote bags and produces a vibrant, full color image once pressed.

Sizing and placement

Size selected on the listing indicates the approximate width of the design; proportional height will change with the artwork. Use the provided size guide and hand-sized examples to select the correct width for your tumbler art or apparel placement. Verify the product type (UV decal vs. fabric transfer) and dimensions before ordering to ensure the seahorse motif fits your intended surface.

Application notes

- UV DTF decal: apply to a clean, dry, smooth surface; no heat press required for adhesion to glass or plastic surfaces. This format functions as a cup sticker or permanent label for insulated drinkware.

- DTF fabric transfer: heat press needed for proper bonding to compatible fabrics; the transfer only is included, garment is not included. Follow your heat press settings for the fabric type you plan to use.

Use cases and suitability

This item works well for DIY craft supply projects, personalized tumbler art, custom glass wrap designs, and small-batch apparel runs where a full color image is desired. Because each piece arrives as either a UV decal or a fabric transfer, choose the format that matches your surface and equipment—no assumptions about compatibility should be made without checking the listing details.

Care and durability

The UV DTF decal delivers a waterproof finish and scratch resistant surface on hard items; handle with normal care for drinkware. For fabric transfers, follow garment care recommendations appropriate to your heat-pressed design to preserve color and adhesion.
