  • Cricut Maker
  • Computer/Laptop with Cricut Design Space
  • Cricut Iron On Glitter or Vinyl colours of your choice

  • Cricut Mat Standard Grip
  • Easy Press
  • Easy Press Mat or Towel (folded at least twice)

INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1 - Choose your design from Cricut Design Space. In this project we used:

  • #M175909CF "Let's Get Jolly Wine Bottle" for the wine bag
  • #M8B36E93 "Christmas Tree" for the small gift bag
  • #M786870B "Santa's Sleigh"
  • #M8B373E4 "Sleigh"
  • Fun brush font for the "All Day" for the make-up bag.

Step 2 - Measure the blank to see how big you want the design to be on the bag and then adjust the size on Cricut Design Space.

Step 3 - Cut a suitable sized iron on enough to cover the design and apply onto the mat.

Step 4 - Cut your design - DO NOT forget to turn on mirror if you are using Iron-On.

Step 5 - Repeat steps 3-4 on other sections of the design/other colours as required.

Step 6 - Using the Cricut Weed Tool, weed out the excess iron on.

Step 7 - Heat up your Easy Press, use the Heat Guide: https://cricut.com/en_us/heatguide. We recommend testing a small inconspicuous part of the fabric as cotton can burn.

Step 8 - Use the lint roller to ensure the blank is free from dust and heat/press the fabric with the warm easy press - this makes a nice flat and warm surface for the transfer. Place your design, adjust as required and lay on top of your mat/folded towel.

Step 9 - Apply the Easy Press on top for the desired time. If you are using infusible ink, ensure you use the butcher's paper provided.

Step 10 - Allow to cool fully then remove the film.

Step 11 - You may need to repeat steps 9-10 for other sections of the design/other colours as required.

*Infusible Ink is ONLY compatible with polyester blanks
