 Do you want to learn how to make your own custom t-shirts? Today we're going to show you how we made ours for under $15 using our Cricut and our Iron On Transfer Vinyl. Are you ready? I'm ready. What we'll need for this project is a t-shirt, heat transfer vinyl, the Cricut Maker. That's what we have, the Cricut Maker. There is a couple different versions of the Cricut or models, but we use the Maker. And then you're going to need an iron. And we have this, what is this? It's like an ironing press that we can use to iron on the decal. So let's get started. You'll first start your project in Design Space. That is an online web tool provided by Cricut. It's design.cricut.com. And you'll design all of your projects there. I'll save it online. You can choose to share your projects or not. So let's get started with Design Space here. This is Design Space with a blank canvas. And it's going to be a pretty simple t-shirt design. I'm just going to add, well, I'm going to add some text. I don't know if any of you watched Outlander, but it is my favorite show right now. And my favorite book series. So I'm going to make an Outlander t-shirt for myself. And like I said, if you've seen the show, then you'll know that the clan motto is just sweet priest or just sweet pre, which means I am ready. And that's what I'm going to put on my t-shirt. So that's what I'm typing in here. Just sweet. And then I'm going to make two text boxes, just sweet pre. But I'm going to use. So up here, you'll select your font. I'm going to select the, there's a lot of fonts. There are so many fonts. I think it's called, I'm not even sure how to pronounce this one, colma seal, sial seal. That's what we're going to use. And here all I've done is typed in the text and you can resize the text to see I have just resized it. And then I think I want this to be a lowercase j. That looks pretty good. I'm going to go with that. I'm going to make this a lowercase s. So they look a little more consistent. And here I'm going to group my text. And I'm going to weld it together so that it makes one image for a typical t-shirt size. I'm going to want to set it at 10 inches. So we're going to put it up here in the corner. You can say I want to start it at 0, 0. Oops. Undo. Position 0, 0 at 10 inches. Here we go. Next up, once you have your text, pretty simple. You just click make it. It really does make it super easy for you. When you hit continue. So for vinyl, you'll need to mirror the image. But I wanted to show you how great this product is because it'll remind you in case you forget. So if you just hit continue and it's connected to my maker using Bluetooth, that's so great. I'm going to say iron on. Right here, it reminds you, make sure mirror is turned on and material is placed shiny side down on matte. It's really foolproof. So here you'll say edit, mirror, done. And load tools and matte. So I have my matte over here, shiny side down. Find it easier to work from the top down. Just like that, shiny side down. Load tools and matte. So here, load matte. All you have to do is press the blinking cricket button. But you can put it in fast mode. And it'll cut even faster than what you're seeing. Here you'll just unload the matte. Take it out of the machine. Press finish. And we're done with design space. So the next step is taking the vinyl off of the matte. You want to be careful not to kink or crease your vinyl. So we have our project cut. The next thing we'll want to do is what they call weeding the project. So I'm going to leave the iron on transfer part onto the paper and I'm going to take everything else off. Which is sometimes easier said than done. I am ready. All right, next step. Oh, that was a mistake. That was such a mistake to put that on my mat. Find the center of your image. Now I can line up the center of my image with the center of my shirt. Put it into the heat press. Wax paper just to protect it since it's so hot. My heater's set on 300 right now. We're going to give it a good 20 seconds. It's two rounds. And from here, with heat transfer vinyl, you can peel it off while it's hot. Sing me a song that is gone.
