Cliff Notes: Buy VLR - Amazon is the only place I know of to find it. Apply to the back of the fabric.  Stretch the fabric.  Peel off the htv. Super easy.  Worked great! I love this pillow (second from the left), despite my mistakes in not welding the pumpkins to the truck...    But my husband and I did not get married in 1993.  That's when our twins were born.  We got married in 1991.  Yeah, I don't know what I was thinking either.  :-) VLR is something I had heard mentioned a few times on different facebook groups, so when I placed my last amazon order, I added a can to my order.  It has sat on the shelf ever since.  I was intimidated by it. Today, Design Space was down.  (Still is, actually...)  so it was a good time to try the VLR.  My first challenge was opening it.  Although I knew it couldn't actually be aerosol, when I saw I had to puncture the top (which the label says is plastic, but sounds more like metal when tapped) it made me nervous to use a hammer and nail. 

It is SO frustrating that there is absolutely no way to use the cricut machine when their website is not working.  Especially when it's not working in the time I have set aside to work on cricut projects!!  I admit I am super, super annoyed this morning.  I already had my dining room table covered in items I wanted to work on, last night I had loaded a bunch of designs into design space...  and this morning, I can't do a thing with any of it, until they finish their unscheduled "maintenance" (Fix whatever broke). But realistically, although I can't finish the projects I wanted to finish this morning, there are a few things I CAN get done, so when design space is finally back online, I can work efficiently to help make up for lost time. 1.Sort out all of the items I want to work on .  Layout t-shirts, pillow case covers, the leather for the earrings , the cutting boards, etc..  and measure them.  Making note of what size design would work best on each item.  I can

I just use a plain old iron.  I set it between cotton and wool. No steam. It's a thrift store iron.  It cost me $2.  It's good and heavy - and old.  Probably a 1980's model.  I generally I use Siser Easyweed.  I've used some Stahls as well. Early on I used a little of the cricut htv, but it is generally more expensive, and I don't like it as well as I like the Siser. parchment paper, silicone baking sheet, thrift store iron, on an ironing board. I work right on my ironing board.  I think it works so well for me because it's the perfect height for me. It's an antique, all wooden, ironing board, if that makes any difference.  It  belonged to my husbands grandmother.   My craft space is a corner of my laundry room, so the ironing board  is just convenient for me. Silicone Baking Sheet I use silicone baking sheets inside my items when ironing.  It reflects the heat back,and gives me a nice flat surface inside the item..   Ok, I don't really know why this hel
