The Cricut EasyPress has arrived! The world of Heat Transfer and Iron on materials are going to have even more of a presence in the creative world. We could not be more excited about it!
An Easier way to Press
When we first saw the EasyPress in action we were in awe! It made so much sense. Irons do not distribute heat evenly and can take a long time to ensure that the iron on materials sticks. You never know what the exact temperature could be which makes for the design to easily come off as well as not wash as well. The EasyPress is everything an iron is not, it distributes heat evenly, has bigger surface area as well as a timer with exact heat temperature gauges to set. This is a dream come true! Your creations will stand up to more washer, longer wears and broader surfaces for heat transfers.
Our project: heat transfer on wood
We wanted to use our EasyPress on wood since the nine inch by nine inch surface area would cover better as well as heat evenly. We gathered our supplies which centered around our aluminum planter that we discovered at Joanns Fabric Stores. We love the way our planter turned out and it was all thanks to the Cricut EasyPress.
Tools + materials you’ll need to get started:
Iron On
Wood Board
Wood Stain
Paint Brush
Aluminum Planter/Screws/Screw Driver
View and print the entire recipe at the bottom of this post.
Project: Planter Display
Step One: Gather your supplies
Step Two: Stain your piece of wood
Step Three: Design your iron on/ heat transfer in your Cricut Design Space and cut your designs and weed out the negative space. Go ahead and set your Easypress to the desired heat setting.
Step Four: Lay out in desired placements on your piece of wood- the use your EasyPress to transfer your designs to the surface.
Step Five: Once your EasyPress is in place, set click on the “C” to start the timer.
Step Six: Let your material cool down and then remove the plastic transfer lining.
Step Seven: Attach your aluminum planter to the wood and fill with desired plants.
