DIY Vinyl Bride and Groom Wedding Toasting Flutes #diywedding #svgfiles #cricutprojects

Happy Post Valentine’s day everyone! Hopefully it was magical, romantic, and maybe even included a ring in the mix! To toast the celebration, well really to toast at your wedding, I designed these cute and simple wedding flutes.

DIY Vinyl Bride and Groom Wedding Toasting Flutes #diywedding #svgfiles #cricutprojects

I made my flutes in two colors, Silver Glitter Permanent Adhesive Vinyl and Gold Permanent Adhesive Vinyl and I loved how both turned out! By aligning the transfer tape well in the beginning, it makes the alignment on the glasses nice and easy. :) I would recommend this as a great first project for working with glassware in general, it is not a hard curve to follow as far as transferring goes and the designs themselves are simple and easy to weed. :)

1. After downloading the cut files, import them into the Cricut Software. After creating a new project, select Upload Image. Select the file you wish to upload and it will automatically take you to the final upload screen, where you can name the file the select Save. 

2. Cut the design(s) in your choice of permanent adhesive vinyl with the Vinyl Setting on your Cricut. The SVG Files are sized so that they will automatically cut to the size you see in the photos, but if you want to change the size to whatever you like. :)

3. Once the designs are cut, weed away the extra vinyl and cut a piece of transfer tape to 2" x 5". Cut away any excess backing from the vinyl design and smooth transfer tape over the design, aligning it to along the first letter of the designs with the bottom lines of the tape aligning to the text as shown below. Make sure to align it such that 1” of the transfer tape is to the left of the first letter to use in placing it properly on the glasses later.

4. After smoothing the transfer tape of the designs with the smoother tool, remove the transfer tape from the backing, lifting the design with the transfer tape.

5. Using the transfer tape as a spacer, smooth the design onto the flutes, aligning the short side of the transfer tape along the top edge of the glasses. I adhered mine as shown below. with the tape parallel to the top of the glass just under the rim.

6. Once the transfer tape is aligned along the top, smooth it onto the glass from top to bottom. I smoothed mine by tracing the letters from top to bottom until the entire design was smoothed onto the flute,as shown below.

7. Once the design has been smoothed and all air bubbles are removed, remove the transfer tape to leave the design on the flute. Repeat with the groom flute in the same manner. Using the transfer tape similarly to above you can make the groom flute lettering the same height so your flutes will be a beautiful and matching set! :)

In keeping with our Valentine’s Day Coloring right now, I made mine on Pink Tote Bags with Gold Confetti HTV but I would almost repeat the project with non glitter HTV to help with visibility on the bags in the future

DIY HTV Iron On Best Bridesmaid Ever Getting Ready Wedding Tote Bags #svgfiles #totebags #bridesmaidgifts

I made a total of 4 different bags so you could have one for each of your leading ladies: bridesmaid, maid of honor, mother of the bride and mother of the groom. You can easily customize these for getting ready bags in whatever colors you like, and they are perfect for storing your girl’s clothes when the are getting ready and in their dresses for the wedding!

Cut the design(s) in your choice of heat transfer vinyl (I used Gold Confetti Glitter HTV) with the Iron On (for Easyweed Vinyl) or Iron On+ (for Glitter Vinyl) Setting on your Cricut, with the shiny side of the material down.

3. Weed the additional material off of the backing material so that, looking down with the shiny side up, you can see your design with the correct orientation.

4. Iron your Tote Bag to remove any creases, then arrange the design in the center of the tote bag, using the handles as a guide . Arrange the design shiny side up, then cover with parchment paper. Make sure to keep the parchment paper between the design and the iron.

5. Set your Iron to the second Highest setting and press the the iron down firmly on the design, not ironing but rather using it as a small heat press. I worked from the upper left to lower right on the design, pressing the iron on each part of the design for at least 30 seconds, then overlapping the last position as you move the iron across the design.

DIY Love is Sweet Macaroon Box Favor #diyfavor #diywedding #svgfiles

It’s the season of love everyone and nothing says love to me like macaroons! These pretty french cookies are light, sweet, and a perfect classy edible favor!

DIY Love is Sweet Macaroon Box Favor #diyfavor #diywedding #svgfiles

I ended up finding these adorable Macaroon Favor Boxes on Amazon, then is was super easy to measure the window, design a simple sticker, then cut and stick! I chose Oracal 651 Gold Vinyl and Silver Glitter Vinyl for my stickers and ended up picking up some macaroons for the boxes at the local super market. That being said, if you learn to make your own macaroons not only will you be able to customize the flavors and colors, but also will make them far far cheaper to make! :)

DIY Love is Sweet Macaroon Box Favor #diyfavor #diywedding #svgfiles

1. After downloading the cut files, import them into the Cricut Software. After creating a new project, select Upload Image. Select the file you wish to upload and it will automatically take you to the final upload screen, where you can name the file the select Save. 

2. Cut the design(s) in your choice of permanent adhesive vinyl with the Vinyl Setting on your Cricut. The SVG Files are sized so that they will automatically cut to the size you see in the photos, but if you want to change the size you can do so.

3. Once the designs are cut, weed away the extra vinyl and cut a piece of transfer tape to 1" x 4". Cut away any excess backing from the vinyl design and smooth transfer tape over the design, aligning along the bottom of the text, as shown below. Using the smoother tool, smooth the tape to the vinyl, removing any air bubbles.

DIY Love is Sweet Macaroon Box Favor #diyfavor #diywedding #svgfiles

4. Remove the transfer tape from the backing, lifting the design from the backing to the transfer tape.

DIY Love is Sweet Macaroon Box Favor #diyfavor #diywedding #svgfiles

5. Aligning the transfer tape along the top edge of the clear window on the sleeve of the box, place the design in the middle of the window. With the tape aligning the top, I was able to center it in the window pretty easily and its also decently forgiving if its not exactly right, as long as the top is aligned.

6. Smooth the design on the window, using your fingers to smooth each letter onto the plastic.

DIY Love is Sweet Macaroon Box Favor #diyfavor #diywedding #svgfiles

7. Remove the transfer tape, leaving the design on the sleeve.

DIY Love is Sweet Macaroon Box Favor #diyfavor #diywedding #svgfiles

With the sleeves complete, next it is time to fold the boxes that will hold the macaroons! It took me a little trial and error to get it right so I will share it here as well, since my boxes didn’t come with instructions. I did my best on the description and took lots of pictures so hopefully it will help you as well if you are having trouble! :)

Box Assembly

1. Start by folding all of the lines on the box, as shown below. This will make the box easier to bend later and help you see how it goes together.

DIY Love is Sweet Macaroon Box Favor #diyfavor #diywedding #svgfiles

2. Taking the long edge, tuck in the two short middle flaps on the side, then fold over the wall and tuck the edge flap under the wall, forming the lengthwise wall as shown below. Repeat for both lengthwise walls.

3. Taking the end flaps on each of the lengthwise walls, hook them together to form the shorter wall of the box. once they are locked in, fold the last side flap over the wall, tucking the end flap under to complete the short wall of the box.

4. Once the boxes are made, fill them with macaroons, and then slide your sleeves over the cookies to finish the favors. I would recommend making all your sleeves and boxes beforehand, then filling them with their cookies the night before or morning of your event. :)

While these boxes are intended for macaroons, they can be filled with any sweets that you like and still work wonderfully for your event, whether its a wedding, bridal shower, or even a Galentines Day Party!

DIY Heart Wine Glass Placecards #svgfiles #cricutprojects #placecards

What better way to adorn your wine glasses in this lovely Valentine’s Season! I’m on a heart kick right now, probably due to really wanting to have a Galentine’s Brunch. :) For Galentine’s Day, Valentines Day, or any Wedding Celebration; these place cards are a cute and fun way to give your guests a glass and their table information.

DIY Heart Wine Glass Placecards #svgfiles #cricutprojects #placecards

I’ve made a couple place cards before but I want to try some Wine Glass Place cards again, but this time cutting them so they could sit on the edge of the glass. I started with a simple heart place cards that can easily be handwritten with your guest information. These ones are super simple, literally cut out, slight fold, and ready to go! :)

DIY Heart Wine Glass Placecards #svgfiles #cricutprojects #placecards

Supplies:
White Cardstock
Craft Cutter and Tool Set
Adhesive Mat
Heart Place Card Design File

DIY Heart Wine Glass Placecards #svgfiles #cricutprojects #placecards

1. After downloading the cut files, import them into the Cricut Software. After creating a new project, select Upload Image. Select the file you wish to upload and it will automatically take you to the final upload screen, where you can name the file the select Save.  Copy and Paste the design for as many placecards as you want (1 standard sheet of paper will fit 6 hearts).

2. Cut the design(s) in your choice of card stock with the Light Card stock Setting on your Cricut. The SVG Files are sized so that they will automatically cut to the size you see in the photos, but if you want to change the size you can. :) Load the Cricut with card stock (portrait orientation) and cut the designs.

Note: You’ll notice that I used a standard mat for this project, but I would recommend the Light Grip Mats for Paper Products. This just happens to be one of my older mats that’s not quite so sticky anymore :)

3. Remove the card stock from the outer edge, leaving the hearts on the cutting mat.

4. Peel off each place card from the edge of the design, leaving the extra paper on the cutting mat. Repeat with all hearts, then remove and discard all the card stock left on the cutting mat.

5. Using your finger, create a bend horizontally on the card, not folding the card but pressing it with your fingers into a curved shape. This will make it easier to sit nicely on the glass.

6. Place on the glass with the cut out “tab” side of the heart on the inside of the glass. Once your guest information has been written, they can be stored until you are ready to place them on the glasses of your event! :)

Do It Yourself Vinyl Mr and Mrs Stemless wine tumblers #svgfiles #cricutprojects #beachbride

I love getting just married swag for the honeymoon and then thought of these simple Mr. and Mrs. Stemless Wine Tumblers! They are just perfect for going to the beach and can easily be made for yourself or your friends who are getting married soon!

Do It Yourself Vinyl Mr and Mrs Stemless wine tumblers #svgfiles #cricutprojects #beachbride

For my tumblers, I used Champagne Glitter Vinyl for the Mrs. and Oracal 651 Black Vinyl for the Mr. and I love how they turned out! This is a great beginner project if you aren’t used to transferring to curved surfaces, these tumblers are very easy to transfer to for this simple, bold design. And its super easy to weed! :)

1. After downloading the cut files, import them into the Cricut Software. After creating a new project, select Upload Image. Select the file you wish to upload and it will automatically take you to the final upload screen, where you can name the file the select Save.

3. Once the designs are cut, weed away the extra vinyl and cut a piece of transfer tape to 2.5" x 3". Cut away any excess backing from the vinyl design and smooth transfer tape over the design, aligning it along the bottom of the text. Using the smoother tool, smooth the tape to the vinyl, removing any air bubbles. The transfer tape should overlap the backing of the design, so that you can stick the tape to an object with the backing still on the design.

4. Now, transfer the design to your tumbler. Remove the tape from the backing and directly place the design on the tumbler. Arrange the design in the middle of the tumbler about an inch from the top of the lip of the tumbler.

Once the design is set, remove the transfer tape from the tumbler, leaving the design on the tumbler.

DIY Vinyl Bottoms Ups Bachelorette Wine Glasses #svgfiles #cricutprojects #bachelorette

Happy Friday Everyone! Friday always puts me in the mood for a glass of wine so I made this cute little “Bottoms Up” glass to enjoy it in! These are also perfect for bachelorette party gifts, wine nights, or thirtieth birthdays!

DIY Vinyl Bottoms Ups Bachelorette Wine Glasses #svgfiles #cricutprojects #bachelorette

Since the design is thin but curved, its a little harder to weed so I would suggest thinner (not glitter) vinyl for this project. Luckily this makes it easier to put on the glass without the curve of the wine glass affecting your design! :)

Cut away any excess backing from the vinyl design and smooth transfer tape over the design, aligning the design in the center of the transfer paper. Using the smoother tool, smooth the tape to the vinyl, removing any air bubbles. The transfer tape should overlap the backing of the design, so that you can stick the tape to an object with the backing still on the design.

4. Now, transfer the design to your glass Remove the tape from the backing and directly place the design in the middle of the wine glass. working from the middle of the design to outside edges, press the letters into the wine glass. since the surface is curved, the transfer tape wont be perfectly flat on it its more important for the design to be smoothed on. :)

DIY HTV Iron On Sporty Team Bride T Shirts #svgfiles #teambride #diywedding

I love crafting for bridal parties and in honor of those sporty college days (and football season I guess) I made these Sporty Team Bride T Shirts!

I made these designs both in one color and two colors, and while I like them both I think that the two color best! I will say that you do have to waste a good amount of vinyl for the outline which does hurt the soul, so the single tone is great for getting the most use out of your HTV with that sporty feel.

4. Iron your T Shirt to remove any creases, then center the design over the top half of the T Shirt. Arrange the design shiny side up, then cover with parchment paper. Make sure to keep the parchment paper between the design and the iron.

Cut the designs in your choice of heat transfer vinyl with the Iron On (for Easyweed Vinyl) or Iron On+ (for Glitter Vinyl) Setting on your Cricut, with the shiny side of the material down. I used Silver Glitter HTV for the inner letters and Purple Easyweed HTV for the outline.

You Can't Sip with Us Iron On HTV Bachelorette Tote Bags #bachelorette #youcantsipwithus #htvvinyl #svgfiles

To go with my You Can’t Sip with Us Bachelorette Koozies, I couldn’t help but include tote bags too! :) I love to have a both a single color and dual color option, so I did mine in Silver Glitter and Pink HTV and then some in just single Pink HTV. Its a great option to do both if you want your bride to have a slightly more festive bag, while the bridesmaids can sport the super cute single color versions which are easier to transfer.

3. Weed the additional material off of the backing material so that, looking down with the shiny side up, you can see your design with the correct orientation. To keep your spacing correct, make sure not to separate your lines (“You can’t” and “with us”) from each other when you are weeding and cutting out your designs. I actually cut the square of material out of the middle before weeding since I could easily use it for something else, and kept them connected with just a little strip of the backing.

7. Now, center the middle of the design (“Sip) in between the already ironed on HTV lines of the tote bag as shown below. Arrange the design shiny side up, then cover with parchment paper. Make sure to keep the parchment paper between the design and the iron.

8. Set your Iron to the second Highest setting and press the the iron down firmly on the design, not ironing but rather using it as a small heat press. Repeat the same ironing process as above for the second design color.

DIY HTV Iron On Team Bride Canvas Tote Bags #teambride #svgfiles #htvvinyl

Now that you’ve got your own bridal tank tops and wine glasses, its time to do some crafting for the leading ladies in your life, you future bridesmaids! I started with tote bags because they are always nice for keeping a bunch of stuff in and moving things back and forth for DIY nights, getting ready the day of, or as overnight bags in general. :) I started with this basic design that can be used for any bridal party and are perfect for getting your dream team together to help you on your special day!

DIY HTV Iron On Team Bride Canvas Tote Bags #teambride #svgfiles #htvvinyl

I made these ones on standard canvas bags with purple vinyl, but the links I included below have bags in a variety of colors as well as HTV in a rainbow of choices! :) You will also notice that the Bride design is bigger than the team bride designs, I just always like the bride to pop a bit, even if the design is the same. :)

DIY HTV Iron On Team Bride Canvas Tote Bags #teambride #svgfiles #htvvinyl

1. After downloading the cut files, import them into the Cricut Software. After creating a new project, select Upload Image. Select the file you wish to upload and it will automatically take you to the final upload screen, where you can name the file the select Save. The SVG Files are sized so that they will automatically cut to the size you see in the photos, but if you want to change the size you can do so to fit the totes the way you like.

2. After selecting “Make It” Make sure to select the Mirror Mode on the cutting screen. Cut the design(s) in your choice of heat transfer vinyl (I used Purple Easyweed HTV) with the Iron On (for Easyweed Vinyl) or Iron On+ (for Glitter Vinyl) Setting on your Cricut, with the shiny side of the material down.

3. Weed the additional material off of the backing material so that, looking down with the shiny side up, you can see your design with the correct orientation.

4. Iron your tote bag to remove any creases, then center the design in the middle of the tote bag. Arrange the design shiny side up, then cover with parchment paper. Make sure to keep the parchment paper between the design and the iron.

5. Set your Iron to the second Highest setting and press the the iron down firmly on the design, not ironing but rather using it as a small heat press. I worked from the upper left to lower right on the design, pressing the iron on each part of the design for at least 15-20 seconds, then overlapping the last position as you move the iron across the design.

DIY Iron on Engaged AF Bridal Tank Tops #engagedaf #htvvinyl #cricut

What better way to celebrate being engaged than with some fun wearables that you can rock throughout your wedding planning time? Its basically the only time you can wear them and if you make them yourself, they can be very inexpensive too! :) I started this year off with one of my favorite just engaged tank top sayings and it makes me wish I was engaged again and planning a wedding this year! :)

DIY Iron on Engaged AF Bridal Tank Tops #engagedaf #htvvinyl #cricut

I made this tank top with Confetti Glitter HTV and loved the look of it and they have tons of different colors to choose from if this gold isn’t really your color. :) And if you have the Cricut already, this project costs less than $10! Pair it with a Wedding Planning Wine Glass or any of the Swag Under $15 we showed last week for a great just engaged vibe to get you through the fun (or stress) of wedding planning. :)

Supplies:
Blank Tank Tops
Easyweed Heat Transfer Vinyl or Glitter Heat Transfer Vinyl
Craft Cutter and Tool Set
Adhesive Mat
Tank Top Design Cut Files

1. After downloading the cut files, import them into the Cricut Software. After creating a new project, select Upload Image. Select the file you wish to upload and it will automatically take you to the final upload screen, where you can name the file the select Save. The SVG Files are sized so that they will automatically cut to the size you see in the photos, but if you want to change the size you can do so to fit the tank tops the way you like.

2. After selecting “Make It” Make sure to select the Mirror Mode on the cutting screen. Cut the design in your choice of heat transfer vinyl (I used Gold Confetti Glitter HTV) with the Iron On (for Easyweed Vinyl) or Iron On+ (for Glitter Vinyl) Setting on your Cricut, with the shiny side of the material down.

3. Weed the additional material off of the backing material so that, looking down with the shiny side up, you can see your design with the correct orientation.

4. Iron your tank top to remove any creases, then center the design over the top half of the tank top. Arrange the design shiny side up, then cover with parchment paper. Make sure to keep the parchment paper between the design and the iron.

5. Set your Iron to the second Highest setting and press the the iron down firmly on the design, not ironing but rather using it as a small heat press. I worked from the upper left to lower right on the design, pressing the iron on each part of the design for at least 30 seconds, then overlapping the last position as you move the iron across the design.

6. Remove the backing from the design, leaving the design on the tank top.

This is a great project to start your journey into DIY wedding crafting, its easy to weed, a good size for a tank top but can be easily ironed on with just a few ironed “presses” to finish it up and not a lot of small or thin lines that could pull up if you didn’t iron it long enough.

Do it Yourself Wedding Planning Wine Glass #engaged #svgfiles #cricut #wine

Happy New Year and congratulations to all the new future brides that got engaged over the holiday season! :) What better way than to celebrate and help you get through the wedding planning process than a lovely diy wine glass!

Do it Yourself Wedding Planning Wine Glass #engaged #svgfiles #cricut #wine

I made one in a Champagne Glitter Vinyl and another in a Turquoise Vinyl, but if you are new to weeding small vinyl designs I would recommend not using the glitter vinyl. In addition, its easiest to smooth the design from the middle to the top, then middle to the bottom to deal with the curvature of the glass.

Do it Yourself Wedding Planning Wine Glass #engaged #svgfiles #cricut #wine

1. After downloading the cut files, import them into the Cricut Software. After creating a new project, select Upload Image. Select the file you wish to upload and it will automatically take you to the final upload screen, where you can name the file the select Save. 

2. Cut the design(s) in your choice of permanent adhesive vinyl with the Vinyl Setting on your Cricut. The SVG Files are sized so that they will automatically cut to the size you see in the photos, but if you want to change the size you can do so to fit another sized glass than the ones we recommend. :)

Do it Yourself Wedding Planning Wine Glass #engaged #svgfiles #cricut #wine

3. Once the designs are cut, weed away the extra vinyl and cut a piece of transfer taper to 3" x 3.5". Cut away any excess backing from the vinyl design and smooth transfer tape over the design, aligning it to the top of the text (“this is my”). I also aligned mine so that one set of the 1/2” blocks on the transfer tape were above the text so the it was easy to align on the glass.Using the smoother tool, smooth the tape to the vinyl, removing any air bubbles.

4. Remove the transfer tape, making sure that the whole of the design transfers from the vinyl backing to the transfer tape.

5. Now, transfer the design to your glass. align the top of the transfer tape to the lip of the glass, as shown below. Smooth down the middle of the transfer tape to about the middle of the design, then smooth the design around the curve of the glass from the middle of the design to the edges. Smooth any air bubbles out of the vinyl, but don’t worry about the crinkling of the transfer tape with the curved surface.

6. Remove the transfer tape to leave the design on the glass. Any additional bubbles in the design can now be smoothed out with either your fingers or the smoother tool. The letters are small enough that I only had one to smooth and it did quite easily. :)

And now you have the perfect wine glass to help you or your new favorite bride get through the fun and stress of planning a wedding! :)

DIY Iron On Monogrammed Koozies #cricutprojects #cricut #koozies #monogram

With all the fun I’ve had putting monograms on Tank Tops and Tote Bags, I decided to include koozies in the mix since its such an easy project if you have a little extra HTV lying around, and in my case I also had some extra koozies! Like the other monogram projects, you can easily design them in the Cricut Craft Cutter Software and size them however you like for your koozie. :)

DIY Iron On Monogrammed Koozies #cricutprojects #cricut #koozies #monogram

Supplies:
Blank Koozies
Easyweed Heat Transfer Vinyl or Glitter Heat Transfer Vinyl
Craft Cutter and Tool Set
Adhesive Mat

Designing Your Monogram:

1. First, if you don't already own a Monogram style font, download one. The font I used is called Free Monogram Font from DaFont.com and it worked perfectly for what I wanted, and as the name implies its totally free!

2. Now, open a new project in your Cricut design software and create a text box. Select the Monogram font from your font choices and use it to type the initials for your monogram.

DIY Iron On Monogrammed Koozies #cricutprojects #cricut #koozies #monogram

3. If you are using the font I mentioned, for smaller side letters you use lower case letters and for the center letter you use uppercase letters. For example, my initials on the monogram shown are typed in as "aCl" .

DIY Iron On Monogrammed Koozies #cricutprojects #cricut #koozies #monogram

4. Next, overlap your letters by changing the letter spacing of your font. I chose -2 for the spacing of my letters but it is better to mess with it a little bit to find out what looks best to you.

DIY Iron On Monogrammed Koozies #cricutprojects #cricut #koozies #monogram

5. Once all your letters are spaced to your satisfaction, select the "Weld" tool to combine your letters into a single set of cutting curves. 

DIY Iron On Monogrammed Koozies #cricutprojects #cricut #koozies #monogram

6. Now,  you can size your monogram to whatever size you like best; I made them 3" wide.

7. Finally, cut the monograms on your choice of vinyl. I used the Iron On+ setting for Glitter HTV and the Standard Iron On Setting for regular Easyweed Vinyl. Make sure that you select the "Mirror" Function and load your Iron On material Shiny side down so that your design cuts correctly! :)

Transferring your Design

8. Once your design is cut, weed away the extra material, leaving only your monogram.

9. Arrange the Monogram such that it is in the center of the koozie. Arrange the design shiny side up, then cover with parchment paper. Make sure to keep the parchment paper between the design and the iron.

10. Set your Iron to the second Highest setting and press the the iron down firmly on the design, not ironing but rather using it as a small heat press. I worked from the upper left to lower right on the design, pressing the iron on each part of the design for about 20 seconds, covering the entire design and parchment paper.

DIY Bride Tribe Iron On Wedding Koozies  #diywedding #koozies #bridetribe #cricutprojects

After making my Groomsman Brew Crew Koozies, I couldn’t leave the lovely ladies of the bridal party out of the koozie fun! So I started simple with some fun glittery Bride Tribe koozies. :)

DIY Bride Tribe Iron On Wedding Koozies  #diywedding #koozies #bridetribe #cricutprojects

I used a mix of Rose Gold Glitter HTV, Gold Confetti HTV, and Old Gold Easyweed HTV with a mix of white and black koozies and all of them turned out great! They are super easy to make and are perfect not only as bachelorette party favors but for bridesmaids proposals or any pre-wedding event. :)

DIY Bride Tribe Iron On Wedding Koozies  #diywedding #koozies #bridetribe #cricutprojects

Personally my favorite combination is below: with The Bride in Rose Gold Glitter on a white Koozie and the maids sporting Gold Confetti on black Bride Tribe Koozies; luckily there are dozens of color options so you can easily customize the colors to exactly what you want. :)

DIY Bride Tribe Iron On Wedding Koozies  #diywedding #koozies #bridetribe #cricutprojects

3. Weed the additional material off of the backing material so that, looking down with the shiny side up, you can see your design with the correct orientation.

5. Set your Iron to the second Highest setting and press the the iron down firmly on the design, not ironing but rather using it as a small heat press. The koozie design should be completely covered by the iron. Pressing the iron on the design for 15 - 30 seconds, mine took only 20 seconds. :)

Modern Wine Bottle Table Numbers

DIY Vinyl Modern Wine Bottle Table Numbers - Free Cut Files! #cricutprojects #diywedding #tablenumbers

We are back for another take on Wine Bottle Table Numbers! I love wine bottle for centerpieces and having the table number on the bottle is a fun detail and a cheap way to make table numbers in general. I’ve made a couple before this and I own that there will likely be more in the future, there are so many possibilities! :)

DIY Vinyl Modern Wine Bottle Table Numbers - Free Cut Files! #cricutprojects #diywedding #tablenumbers

These designs I wanted to look similar to an actual wine bottle label as far as size, with the number cut out, but as it turns out I really liked them either way. By weeding out the numbers or removing the “label” part, you can have just the Table and number in vinyl or you can choose to remove the Text and numbers, making a more label-esque choice. These two choices could easily be alternated between or you can pick your favorite of the two!

DIY Vinyl Modern Wine Bottle Table Numbers - Free Cut Files! #cricutprojects #diywedding #tablenumbers

Supplies:
Empty Wine Bottles
Permanent Adhesive Vinyl
Transfer Tape
Craft Cutter and Tool Set
Adhesive Mat
Table Number Design Cut Files

1. First, soak your wine bottles in hot, soapy water to remove the labels and adhesive. I found it easiest to soak them for about 5 minutes, remove what l could, then once the label was completely removed clean up the last bits of adhesive with steel wool. :)

2. After downloading the cut files, import them into the Cricut Software. After creating a new project, select Upload Image. Select the file you wish to upload and it will automatically take you to the final upload screen, where you can name the file the select Save.  

3. Cut the design(s) in your choice of permanent adhesive vinyl with the Vinyl Setting on your Cricut. The SVG Files are sized so that they will automatically cut to the size you see in the photos, but if you want to change the size you can do so to fit the wine bottles the way you like.

DIY Vinyl Modern Wine Bottle Table Numbers - Free Cut Files! #cricutprojects #diywedding #tablenumbers

4. Once the designs are cut, weed away the extra vinyl and cut a piece of transfer taper to 3.5" x 5". You can weed these table numbers in two ways, either by weeding the numbers and text, leaving a rectangle with the Table number weeded, or by removing the rectangle, leaving the Table number in vinyl.

5. Cut away any excess backing and smooth transfer tape over the design. I aligned the rectangle table number along the gridelines of the transfer tape and for the numbers only style, I aligned the tape along the “T” and top of the number, as shown below. Using the smoother tool, smooth the tape to the vinyl, removing any air bubbles. The transfer tape should overlap the backing of the design, so that you can stick the tape to an object with the backing still on the design.

DIY Vinyl Modern Wine Bottle Table Numbers - Free Cut Files! #cricutprojects #diywedding #tablenumbers

6. Now, transfer the design to your bottle. If you are comfortable centering the designs you can remove the tape from the backing and directly place the design on the wine bottle. If not, arrange the design to the bottle before removing the backing, sticking it with the overlapping transfer tape.  I aligned mine to the bottom of the wine bottles, as shown in the photos below. I didn’t have much issue transferring the designs directly, but it never hurts to keep on the backing while you arrange it if you are nervous! :)

DIY Vinyl Modern Wine Bottle Table Numbers - Free Cut Files! #cricutprojects #diywedding #tablenumbers

6. Once your design is placed to your satisfaction, transfer the design to the bottle. If you kept on your backing, carefully peel the tape off the backing, transferring the vinyl to the transfer tape while not unsticking it from the bottle. Remove the backing then smooth the design onto the bottle. If you didn’t use the backing, smooth design onto the bottle, using your fingers to remove air bubbles.

7. Remove the transfer tape to leave the design on the wine bottle, then repeat the process for all your additional table numbers.

DIY Monogram Bridal Canvas Tote Bags #diywedding #cricutprojects #monogram

If there is one thing I adore on Etsy its all the monogrammed swag you can buy for yourself and your maids for your wedding! I love monogrammed items, but have always been nervous to try it myself because I assumed it would be difficult. Luckily, that was not the case! :)

DIY Monogram Bridal Canvas Tote Bags #diywedding #cricutprojects #monogram

I ended up finding a free monogram font (that I reference below) and it took all of 15 minutes of playing around with the software for my Cricut to easily make oodles of monograms, so I started with tote bags! Tote bags, especially canvas ones like these, are great for your wedding party for a beach or destination wedding where your maids will want a beach bag to throw their things in. :)

DIY Monogram Bridal Canvas Tote Bags #diywedding #cricutprojects #monogram

In this tutorial, I’ll go step by step to show you how to make monograms in your Cricut software for tote bags of your own or whatever else you want to monogram! :)

Supplies:
Blank Tote Bags
Easyweed Heat Transfer Vinyl or Glitter Heat Transfer Vinyl
Craft Cutter and Tool set
Adhesive Mat
Iron and Ironing Mat

9. Iron your Tote Bag to remove any creases, then arrange the Monogram where you want to transfer it on your tote. For large monograms I put it in the middle and for smaller monograms I preferred the lower right corner. Arrange the design shiny side up, then cover with parchment paper. Make sure to keep the parchment paper between the design and the iron.

10. Set your Iron to the second Highest setting and press the the iron down firmly on the design, not ironing but rather using it as a small heat press. I worked from the upper left to lower right on the design, pressing the iron on each part of the design for at least 30 seconds, then overlapping the last position as you move the iron across the design.
