CRICUT IRON ON PROJECT
DIY IRON ON PILLOW
Want to make this DIY Popsicle Pillow? Simply use our easy to follow directions.
- Create a pillow cover using this DIY pillow cover tutorial (if needed) or use a pre-made pillow cover like this one from JOANN.
- Grab this fun popsicle pillow project I created for you to use in Cricut’s Design Space. You can find the project by clicking on this link: DIY Iron On Popsicle Pillow
- Cut out your Iron On Vinyl. I used this fun and sparkly Holograph Iron On Material that comes in the Cricut Wisteria Machine Bundle! Isn’t it so pretty? I can think of so many fun projects to create with it!
- Be sure to set the machine to cut a kiss cut by choosing the Iron On option in Cricut Design Space. You will also need to check the mirror image option before cutting the Iron On so that the material will lay on the pillow facing the right direction.
- I used three different Holographic Iron On Colors to create each popsicle in the pink, teal and gold colors. I also used some Silver Foil Iron On for the words. Cut them each out on separate cutting mats.
- Use your Cricut EasyPress to Iron on each piece according to the Cricut EasyPress Recommended Settings chart. According to that, you will need to heat the EasyPress to 330 degrees F.
- Then pre-press the front of the pillow where you are placing the design for 5 seconds.
- Add the Iron On to where you want it on the material you are attaching it to and hold it on the design for 30 seconds with a medium pressure.
- Flip the material over and press on the back of the material for 15 seconds.
- When you can touch the Iron On material and while it is still warm, warm peel the plastic backing carefully off of the iron on material.
- *Note: We didn’t pull out all the faces on the popsicles due to our own preferences. And we didn’t add all the popsicle drips. You can if you want. Or you can leave them and they will iron on just fine without noticing they aren’t pulled out!
Look at how pretty and sparkly this pillow is! It is the perfect addition to a nursery, couch or girls room! I love the fun color it adds to this space…don’t you? The color is so much more bright and sparkly in person!! A fun pop of color in this girls bedroom!
