Crafting therapy continued

I almost skipped today’s post because I was out of words. But then I thought I just share more of my makings over the last couple days. I really wish I had the space for a separate craft room but as it stands it has to be the dining room table which I share with my kids’ D&D meetings on Fridays and Saturdays. Since I have to put everything to the side I always feel like I need to make good use of my time and accomplish as much as possible.

I feel I am still pretty new to the Cricut game and I always wanted to try more iron on projects. I made the above T-Shirt for my daughter’s birthday. The image of the boiled isle I ordered via an instant download. You do need svg file for the Cricut that are easily scalable. I also made the below T-Shirt for my book club meeting. I met the organizer through Instagram and she came up with this beautiful logo. You cut out the template on iron on vinyl, remove the access with the weeding tool which can be tricky if the design is very detailed. Cricut also sells heat presses to apply the design to your fabric but I just used a regular iron. It worked like a charm this time and I am happy with the results.

I also made some more cards just because. If you get a subscription the Cricut comes with lots of premade projects – so I can’t take credit for these.

  1. Wow, these are so cool! I love the name of your book club (and that logo) as well. I have a Cricut Joy, which is way too small for my liking but I’ve been experimenting a little bit with vinyl at least. It’s a fun toy for sure, but also time consuming to dive into, right? So many possibilities that it almost makes me not want to learn it all… πŸ™‚

    Happy crafting!

    1. It is a cool toy but it took me a while to get to it. There is definitely a learning curve and the interface needs some getting used to. I feel like the company could explain things better but there is a lot of info out there by various crafters.

    1. Julia did an amazing job designing it. She also picked the name. Most are in Germany but we are currently three Germans in the US. Heybooklovers is a cool name, too. I think I have seen it on Instagram before.
