Iron-On Vinyl For Beginners Using The Cricut EasyPress Mini

In this step by step tutorial I will walk you through how to use Iron-On Vinyl, also known as Heat Transfer Vinyl or HTV, using the Cricut EasyPress Mini. You can also use a home iron, larger EasyPress or heat press for this project. We will be using both regular iron-on and glitter iron-on vinyl in this tutorial. I will be applying our design to a baby diaper shirt (bodysuit) but you can use another shirt if you'd like.

Thank you so much for posting this beginner lesson. I’ve had my mini for awhile and no one would show me how to make shirts. I’m so excited I made my grand daughter a shirt for her 1st Birthday tonight watching your video. Thank you for the step by step guidance you made this very easy for me.💞

Thank you for this tutorial! Not only did I learn how to do the heat transfer, but I learned much more about my Cricut in general!

I've just received the mini and your tutorial makes so much sense and it has boosted my confidence. I had previously tried the holographic htv on a canvas pouch with a home iron and tried putting pressure along with moving motion which resulted in the htv moving and leaving glue around the htv. Once again thanks for this turorial. Will use the minimore efficiently

I have made my first t-shirt using htv with the help of your video today. Thanks so much

I love this video, you explained everything so well. I have the large cricut heat press but now I’m obsessed with the mini. Ordering today.😊

I just bought the easy press mini, and your video was so helpful! You were clear in your instructions, and I feel so much better tackling my first project! I also LOVE the design you chose....Thanks again for sharing your video with an anxious beginner! ALSO, thanks for the tips in Design Space about attaching the letters. I've found Design space a little intimidating, but I just keep going bac k to You Tube and I find great people, like yourself, willing to share these fantastic tips!

Thank you so much for this video! Just made my first HTV project, a 8x8 inch design on a cotton tote. I needed to go over it a few more times because it was that big and had a lot of fine lines that didn't adhere on the first try. But wasn't a problem, just made sure I didn't stay at one spot for too long

[cheyenneedinger]

Great video overall really no long intro perfectly detailed thank you!

[kishah]

I have just purchased this mini press because it has been taking hours to iron on glitter vinyl as my iron wasn’t getting hot enough. So I’m hoping this will speed up the process ☺️xx
