How to Use Vinyl Decals for Beginners on Curved Surface with Cricut Machine

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 17 ส.ค. 2024
  • In this video, we're showing you how to use Smart Vinyl with your Cricut Joy to make vinyl decals! We picked up some water bottles at Walmart for our warehouse team and used three different kinds of Smart Vinyl to customize them with each of their names. Let's see how to apply vinyl graphics and stickers to curved surfaces like ornaments, coffee cups, tumblers, helmet, car side mirror, computer mouse, model car, wine glass, beer stein, clock surfaces and avoid creases on your final personalized custom project.
    Quick side note: You can make this project with any Cricut! It doesn't have to be the Joy. Just remember, Smart Materials {like the Smart Vinyl I have listed below} are to be used only with the Joy. You'll just need regular vinyl with any other Cricut machine!
    🎉 MATERIALS:
    - Cricut Joy {you can use the Maker or Air 2 as well, but your materials may vary a little from this list}: www.craft-e-co...
    - Permanent Smart Vinyl, Black: www.craft-e-co...
    - Permanent Smart Vinyl, Mint: www.craft-e-co...
    - Permanent Smart Vinyl Shimmer, Gold: www.craft-e-co...
    - Transfer Tape: www.craft-e-co...
    - Strong Grip Transfer Tape (somewhat optional- view the video to see what I mean😜)
    - Weeder Tool: www.craft-e-co...
    - Joy Tools: www.craft-e-co...
    - Water Bottles {I couldn't find the listing online, but we purchased these at Wal-Mart for $1 each in June 2020}

    I've owned an Explore 3 for a month now; still learning the basics. After failing three times to transfer a smart vinyl label containing some text and lines, I ran across this channel. When you mentioned "strong grip" transfer tape, I ran out and got some. It really saved the day. Thank you.

    Do you have to add a top coat like mod poge or something to prevent the vinyl from coming off when washing

    • @Craft-e-Corner
      @Craft-e-Corner  4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      We do not! When you use permanent vinyl, it's meant to last 2-3 years. It's pretty tough stuff. It's also recommended to hand wash only. We have seen a lot of people use products like modpodge or water-based polyurethane for sealing, so you could do a search for that. However, we can't say from experience...you should be just fine with permanent vinyl. Best of luck! :)

    • @Craft-e-Corner
      @Craft-e-Corner  4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      This water bottle (even without the vinyl on it) had instructions to hand wash only so this will have to be hand wash only. It's recommended to hand wash your vinyl projects to be safe. However, I've run plenty of mugs with vinyl through my dishwasher and they've turned out just fine. Just know it MIGHT peel up- so if you want to make sure your design stays, then hand wash! Or if you're feeling a little risky, you may be okay with the dishwasher (but just knows there's a chance of it peeling up/moving). I would definitely wait 24-48 hours after making it before putting it into the dishwasher if you do go that route. :) hope that helps!

    Hello, quick question... if you were doing a series of names in vinyl to be applied somewhere, how would you maintain uniformity? for example the name shannon is a lot longer than the name lily and when using the width it distorts the font for the name lily, however if i use the font size at say 20, Lily is too small to be visible. Im stuck! Would appreciate any help :)

    • @Craft-e-Corner
      @Craft-e-Corner  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      One idea is to try and keep uniformity through the placement of the design instead of the size of the letters.

      I would probably wait and save up for the Air 2. Right now it's about $55 more on our website- it's just going to allow you to do a lot more than the Joy! The Joy can make vinyl decals like you see in the video here, but the Air 2 will allow you to cut a lot more materials and open up for possibilities for products to sell in your business.

      It's not recommended from Cricut to put Smart Vinyl in the dishwasher. However, I will say from my own personal experience that if you let the vinyl adhere for 48 hours, I've had really good luck with still running projects through the dishwasher. Just know that you may run the risk of it peeling up, so it's suggested to hand wash only!

See if you can try and sell you Cricut vinyl to someone who likes using it. The one thing I can tell you is if you use regular vinyl without a mat, it will not work well with intricate designs but something like this, it work great.
