8.5×8.5cm Ball Christmas Decoration Clear: Sublimatable Ball Ornament with Aluminium Insert

Create a personalised Christmas tree ornament with our sublimatable ball Christmas decoration clear. This 8.5×8.5cm ball decoration consists of a clear plastic ball case with a sublimatable aluminium insert inside. You press your design onto the aluminium insert using a heat press. The clear plastic housing then showcases the finished design as a hanging Christmas tree ornament. Because the insert takes the sublimation, the clear case stays undamaged by heat. The result is a crisp, professional personalised decoration suitable for gifting, resale, or seasonal keepsakes. Sold individually.

Why the Ball Shape Makes This the Most Versatile Personalised Christmas Ornament

The ball is the classic Christmas tree ornament shape. Customers recognise it immediately, which means a personalised ball decoration requires no explanation at a market stall or in an online shop. At 8.5×8.5cm it is large enough to display a design clearly from across a room, while remaining light enough to hang without weighing down tree branches. Because the shape is universally associated with Christmas, it suits every gifting context — family names, pet portraits, couple photos, and first Christmas designs all work equally well on a ball ornament.

The clear plastic housing reinforces that versatility. Since the case is transparent, the sublimated design on the aluminium insert is the only visual element the viewer sees. There is no competing colour from the housing itself. That transparency means the same blank works with bold full-colour designs and with subtle single-colour artwork. The 8.5×8.5cm size also gives crafters enough surface area to include text alongside imagery without the design feeling cramped.

Press Settings for the Aluminium Insert

Press the sublimatable aluminium insert at 200°C for 40 seconds. Do not press the assembled clear plastic ball decoration. Do not place the plastic case in the heat press at any stage.
