DIY Christmas Potholders
Learn how to make potholder for Christmas with your Cricut machine.
Equipment
- Cricut EasyPress
- Iron-on protective sheet or parchment paper
What You Will Need
- Potholders I picked these up at my local Dollar Tree.
- Glitter iron-on in white red, and gold
- Cricut cut file
Instructions
- Start by using the cut file to cut your pieces from glitter heat transfer vinyl. Be sure to mirror the mats before cutting and cut with the good side down on your mat. Once cut, you will need to weed away all excess from around your design as well as the centers of letters.
- Then position your design on the potholder.
- Remove all but one color as we are going to press one at a time.
- Locate correctly on the potholder and cover with an iron-on protective sheet or parchment paper. Then press with your Cricut EasyPress for the proper amount of time at the right temperature.
- Then peel back the protective liner. DO NOT DISCARD.
- Place the next color on the potholder in place. Then return the protective sheet that you just removed. This will help protect your iron-on material.
- Press then remove all of the liners to reveal your design.
- Continue this process for all of the colors of iron-on. Once all colors have been pressed, turn the potholder over and press from the back according to the directions on the heat guide.
- Your potholders are now done and ready to use!
