Assemble:

Step 1 - Remove the excess vinyl and iron-on from the cut pieces using the weeding tool.

Step 2 - Remove the protective film from the front and back of the acrylic ornament.

Step 3 - Using the Transfer Tape, apply the green vinyl to the ornament. Then using the Strong Grip Transfer Tape, apply the red shimmer vinyl and then the gold shimmer vinyl to the ornament.

Step 5 - Turn on the EasyPress Mini and set the temperature to medium.

Step 6 - Fold the napkin in half three times to create a rectangle, then pinch the middle to create a bow. Wrap the ribbon around the centre of the bow and secure the end on the back of the napkin with a short pin.

Step 7 - Using the EasyPress Mini, press the iron on name onto the ribbon on the front of the bow.
