Create with Craftey: DIY Fall Tea Towel

Posted on October 4, 2019

Part of me can’t believe that it is October and the other part of me is like “FINALLY!!!” It is already starting to cool down here in Kansas, which really puts me in FULL fall mode. This month’s Create with Craftey project is this super cute DIY fall tea towel. You can download October’s free hand-lettered SVG file and as always the amazing team over at Craftey is going to take you through the step-by-step process to create this yourself by clicking here.

What’re your “go to” fall colors? A super deep red or burgundy (like the one that we have used for the top portion of this month’s design) is one of my favorites! I also LOVE a deep olive green. I can’t wait to see what colors you use on your own DIY fall tea towel! If you’re needing a specific color of heat transfer vinyl, just check out Craftey’s shop! They have SO many options.

Create with Craftey: Using HTV to Create the Perfect DIY Instagram Swimsuit

Posted on July 5, 2019

We’re wrapping up the first week of July and what better way than to show you how to create the perfect DIY Instagram swimsuit?! This month’s Create with Craftey post is inspired by the first thing I think of when I think of summer (after being thankful for the warmth)… THE BEACH! Growing up, my parents & I’s yearly summer tradition was a two-week beach trip to Garden City, South Carolina. Now that I live in Kansas, I’m probably as far from a beach as I’ll ever be. But, we all still need the perfect Instagram swimsuit, right? So, let’s use HTV to create the perfect Instagram swimsuit! Whether you’re going to the beach, the lake, or just laying out in the backyard- you can download this month’s FREE hand-lettered SVG file and learn how to create a unique swimsuit yourself using heat transfer vinyl over on Craftey‘s website.

I always love seeing bloggers show off their cute one-piece swimsuits (#instagrammable), but we all know that sometimes affordable swimsuits are hard to find! Or you find a cute one and then wonder who decided to put some weird phrase on there… Insert the perfect DIY Instagram swimsuit! Haha. That’s why I love this month’s project so much. I know I say that every month, but Y’ALL I CAN’T HELP IT. You can pick up a plain one-piece (or give a new life to that old one sitting in your drawer) and make it unique! Your options are endless with vinyl crafting. If you’re needing HTV, check out Craftey’s shop to get the exact vinyl they used in this month’s project.
