My Cricut Projects in 2017



In the last part of August 2017, I bought this magic machine.  I still don't completely understand all that it does - but here are a few of the things I have made with it in 2017!

       
 
Potholders & Dishtowels, Pillows & Curtains
How to Sew Simple Envelope Covers, and make simple throw pillows
Christmas Pillows - including how to layer the vinyl




  

 

T-shirts.  MANY t-shirts, and so many of this Red Friday design - Especially since our son is deployed, we all wanted one of these.



Count Down Boards
made with the dollar tree dry erase boards



Soap Dispensers
From Dollar Tree, decorated with Cricut designs.  The how to and all of the designs are here: http://fieldsofhether.blogspot.com/2017/12/decorating-soap-dispensers-with-cricut.html

A birth announcement elephant!  One of my absolute favorite projects, I can't wait to make more of these!


A thrift store redo.  I bought this old pail, and coasters, from our local thrift store, painted them, and added vinyl.  I love this garbage can so much!



Dollar Tree Tote Bags!
These are tricky to iron, the fabric melts easily

Soap labels!  For the first time ever, I am consistantly, and easily, labeling my soap!  I write the labels with the markers in cricut, then send them to cut.
 

EOS Cards & A Gift Card Holder
Reindeer cards that hold the EOS chapstick.  I'm sure I'll be making more of these for Valentines Day and Easter...

The gift card holder was a purchased design from: https://www.jamieandjenn.com/


Glass Etching
I've etched a few projects - but my biggest were plates from BIg Lots, that I did for Christmas Cookie plates for our neighbors

How To Use New Fonts In Phonto On Android

There are lots of apps to add fonts to android devices, but I really didn't want to add fonts to my android system.  I have a zillion fonts on my phone already.  What I wanted was to be able to use fonts like I love Glitter in Phonto.   Cliff Notes - Just add them to the fonts folder in the Phonto App.  Phonto has a "how to" for installing fonts on android, but it did not work for me.  This is what worked: My fonts are all backed up in dropbox. That makes this simple - but you could also send the font to your phone through email, and save to your downloads folder.   I just opened dropbox, went to the font, clicked on it, chose export/save to device, and saved to my downloads folder. Then I went to my downloads folder (Use "My Files" - in your app drawer. )  LONG click on the font.  If you just open it, you may get a message saying you do not have an app to pen this file.  You want to select the font, which you do by holding down on ...

Fonts With Tails (Glyphs) Cheat Sheet

Glyphs are extra characters in fonts.  For fonts like Samantha (a paid font - there is no free version) you have to use a character map to access the extra swirls. There are a few fonts, such as I Love Glitter, where you can quickly add swirls (nothing as ornate as Samantha, but still pretty!) just by adding a few characters such as * \ [ ] or ().  I call them "easy glyphs". Download all four of these cheat sheets as a pdf file, here.  If that link does not work (too much traffic) Try This One. Links to download each font are found under the photos. MF I Love Glitter        Smell The Roses            Shorelines        Stea        klcupid          Daddy's Girl             Beauty & The Beast          Ribbons & Banners            LillyBelle      ...

Dr Doolittle's Roadside Cafe & Creamery

The "Lower" Restaurant.  There's a second restaurant up the hill, right next to this. I originally saw this place on one of the many roadside PA facebook groups I follow.  I thought it would be a fun place to stop for lunch on our way to the ASPGB 2017 - and I was not disappointed. There's normally an amish buggy here, being pulled by either the dinosaur or Sasquatch - but it was missing when we were here.   I've seen photos of an alpaca and goats here..  near this barn area.  We didn't see them when we stopped, they might have all been inside? There's a lot of road noise if you eat outside, but we sat right at the front of the outdoor seating, not realizing that there was more outside seating behind the walk up counter.  Just go back past the party barn, and you can sit between the train cars below, and the back of the lower restaurant. There are train cars everywhere you turn... I really wanted to play mini golf - but we didn't have time, and I'm...
