Absolutely the best video I have seen! Thank you for walking through how to even create your own customized tag sizes on the Cricut. I can not wait to make my own.
Good info. Thank you.
Thank You💯
Girl!!! What do you not do? Of course we want to see you knit❤️
Hahahah! I can’t hand knit! I’ve tried and I swear it’s like a whole foreign language to me!
Yes please show us the equipment you used to make the beanie hat
So cute! Thank you so much for sharing...
Yes a beanie how too pleaseeeeeee ..
Great video! Edit: at the beginning, I think you meant to Align Horizontally, not vertically because they are placed horizontally on the image. :)
Any chance you know the size of the rivet holes? I'm looking at using chicago screws as an alternative. Thanks so much.
I couldn't find the link for those rivets, I wasn't sure if I just couldn't find it, love your video..
Third link in the video description supply list :)
Can I ask what computer you recommend for using a Cricut? Im looking for a new one. Any help would be great. Love your video!!
Look into the requirements for design space on Cricut’s website. It’s more so about that
Great tutorial! How is the faux leather if you wash it? I’m thinking of making this tag to my sewn projects and may get washed so will the faux leather with HTV still look ok after many washing? Thank you
I’ve washed a couple and they seem to hold up pretty well. I would however not place in the dryer. It may effect the htv
Hello Corinne
Awesome video... thank you. Do you know whether or not faux leather tags are machine washable?
I have tried and most seems to hold up fine in the wash
Hi! Was the faux leather facing down? I couldn’t tell. Thank you!
Face up. But you can do it either way. Whatever works best with your machine and material. It takes a few tries to see what works best
Love this thank you. Can you please let me know what size are your rivets (how long is the post)? The link you supplied doesn't say what size they are and I will need to try and source them here is Australia. Thank you
I have no clue how long the post is to be honest. If I had to guess I would say its around 1/4 inch
@@CorinneBlackstone Thank you
So if you premirror you don't need to mirror on the last screen or turn the material over where the shiny side is face down?
Correct
love the tags, thank you, could you just let us know how many rows are in the hat? i believe it is folded in half?
My hats are 98-105 rows total the faux brim are 63 brim color and 36 main color
@@CorinneBlackstone thank you for taking the time to answer. your awesome !!!!
Excellent tutorial! Is the faux leather and htv washable or does it need to be removed?
It’s best to remove it
Love the idea! I plan on using this for tags on my crochet products, i have a couple questions tho! Could u use foil instead of vinyl on the faux leather? Would it be a similar process? How well does it handle long term with washing?
Foil could be used but you need to be sure it’s made for fabrics and don’t use the cricut stuff it’s not good quality. And so far they hold up fine to washing
Have you ever used pu leather to make tags or just faux tags? I watched your video but wasn’t sure what kind to purchase.
I used faux leather but I have used genuine before as well both work
Do the rivets stay on with just snapping them on like you did or are you supposed to use pliers or an anvil?
They stay on perfectly the way I do it and this way they can be popped off if someone doesn’t want the tag
So- if you use faux leather that's 100% polyester then you could sublimate the text on. Right? My wheels have been turning for days on how to put tags on my boys cheap knitted gloves so they don't get lost at school.
Yes but you will need a very light colored faux leather
Would love to use this idea on product labels, I'm just wondering is it washable? I was also considering using foil on leatherette, and wondering which one will hold up better after washing. Thanks for sharing.
The foil probably would wash off to be honest. I did test a hand wash of the label and it held up fine but I’m not sure that machine washing would be good for it
Foil won’t make it but the foil-like/ high sheen HTV does fine. Many of us sewists use leatherette and vinyl labels on clothes.
I decided embossing would be the best option.. Thanks for your response.
This is awesome! Do you know if the cricut will engrave on the tags instead of using vinyl?
I tried it a ton and it never engraved deep enough to be seen.
@@CorinneBlackstone Thank you for letting me know. I cut some tags today and it worked great!! I'm so excited, this will save me a ton of money. THANK YOU
Thank you for this video I have been wanting to learn how to do this to add to my hand made hats. I am new to the circuit world and excited to try this.
This looks so cool. I have become a member, confirmed email, but I still can't access your shop?
Make sure you have logged in at the website and then it’s under members only free svgs
@@CorinneBlackstone all good. Thank you.
This video is so helpful - I have watched it about 10 times and see something new every time! I noticed that when you did the label "Happy Crafting" - it showed as a black font but then after you transferred it - it looked white on the leather tag. How did it change color?
The color in design space doesn’t matter it’s what color htv you put on your mat for it to cut.
@@CorinneBlackstone Gotcha! That makes perfect sense - I should have know that. Thanks for the info and quick response! :)
Does that machine cut cork fabric? The cork fabric looks and feels like leather.
Yes it does
Would the vinyl lift when washed and dried?
Well you shouldn’t wash and dry these hats. They are really spot wash only but if washed and dried no the htv will stay just fine
Can I use the mini circuit? It's more affordable for me.
The joy? You can it’s the same idea but you’ll need to play with the settings. For the price look for the explore air series to go on sale though it’s a much much better machine
I may be getting a Joy from my family for Christmas. I am a crocheter and this is why I wanted a machine! For tags! Could I do this with a Joy?
Yep! The joy can do faux leather :)
Corinne Blackstone awesome! I have never, ever used a cricut. Your video is the first I have watched… do I need to purchase a special cutting tool? (I saw you said the blade you have doesn’t work with Joy). Last question!
Would a silhouette 2 be able to cut the leather?
Yes it can
How do you get the text words to be cut out in one strip? I have tried this over and over and it keeps cutting the individual letters. I have tried it with a capital K on each end. I selected both Ks and welded them but it cuts out the individual letters.
You attach the entire design if you are using a cursive font then you weld
Have you ever used pu leather or you always used faux leather to make tags?
I tend to use faux leather because I don't like the smell of PU leather.
Do you have any issues with the vinyl rubbing off the tag?
No
I want to know about knitting machine
if you put it through the wash, will the tag or the HTV get ruin?
I would recommend removing the tag for washing. But I have washed with the tag on and it was fine but don’t put it in the dryer
Thank you for sharing the video. I have tried to join your page but it won't let me. What am i doing wrong?
Can you cut faux leather with the standard blade the cricut comes with?
If it’s thin yes but I don’t like the super thin faux leather and it doesn’t tend to give a good clean cut
@@CorinneBlackstone thank you. It is the faux leather by cricut. I'm wanting to make custom labels to sew onto afghans I make.
Is soft flex and sport flex htv about the same thing?
Not even close. I don’t recommend cricut brand htv ever as it is not good quality compared to many others. I also believe the sports flex is made specifically for cotton which leather is not
So the rivets are not permanant? More like snaps?
Yep! They are very similar to snaps.
I could not find the spot to download on your website.
Under the members only tab and then free svgs
Can these be made with a explorer air 2?
Yes
What size were the holes for the square tag example ?
I’m not 100% sure but I want to say about .3 inches
What size are the rivets please? It doesn't say on the website and I'm in the UK so Michaels isn't an option for me unfortunately 😭
These are listed as medium
@@CorinneBlackstone I don't suppose you know the size in millimeters do you?
Where do I get the cold brew font? I downloaded one and it looks nothing like yours.
I got it here fontbundles.net/ka-designs/362636-cold-brew-a-thin-and-tall-handwritten-font?ref=ddMZ1K
@@CorinneBlackstone great! thank you for the quick reply!
How do I change the font to HTV while leaving the tag alone? I can not get them to show as 2 different cuts like yours. Help
You make the htv a different color than the tag
That easy! 😂 Oh my. Thank you so much
Can you tell what the blue sparkle yarn is on the beanie and how did the sentro handle it?
It worked fine in the machine and that yarn is this www.joann.com/6oz-medium-weight-acrylic-blend-380yd-twinkle-yarn-by-big-twist/zprd_17026949a.html
@@CorinneBlackstone thank you so so much for your quick response. That beanie is beautiful.
Sorry, one more question, what was the black yarn used??
@@kimbrown9412 I have absolutely no idea lol it’s been a while my best guess is probably big twist brand but otherwise no clue
@@CorinneBlackstone ok thanks. I just couldn’t tell if it was a regular med 4 black or if it was twinkle too
Can you tell me where you got your cold brew font from. The only ones I have found are script. Thanks
This is the one I used fontbundles.net/ka-designs/362636-cold-brew-a-thin-and-tall-handwritten-font?ref=ddMZ1K
Thanks heaps. Love your work ❤️
Downloaded perfectly and shows up in word doc as cold brew but in design space it shows correctly when I choose a font but then it applies another font. Any tips. Been driving me crazy. It shows in windows fonts correctly as well
@@lynchappell2582 honestly that’s a new one on me. Since the font works elsewhere I would type it in word screenshot it and then just remove the background in design space
@@CorinneBlackstone got on a circuit forum and a lot of people having trouble with bringing their own fonts into circuit. Someone suggested clearing the cache so going to try that tomorrow. Thanks for your help though.
Can you make these tags on the cricut joy?
Yes
Which Cricut machine do you use to cut leather?
The maker and the explore both work great
@@CorinneBlackstone thank you!! I’m torn on which one to get. Don’t want to get the air and miss out on what the maker can do! 🙄😳🥴
I am new to this so please bear with me, how do you get the vinyl to just show the words. Is there another step that I am missing. Thank You
You weed the vinyl. Removing excess vinyl from the carrier sheet
@@CorinneBlackstone The vinyl you used was thinner then mine. If I follow what you did and use the recommend blade It won't cut the top piece you peel off and if I use a different blade I tear the silver iron on part. Help
@@sheilahpike6546 I used Starcraft softflex which is an htv. You have to use HTV. Do not use cricut iron on its absolute trash
@@sheilahpike6546 also be sure you are cutting it with the carrier sheet side down and not the vinyl side down
@@CorinneBlackstone That may have been my mistake.. My package is not clear on what side is what.. So the matte color of the vinyl needs to be up and the clear cover down on the sticky sheet. If that's right I will try again. I just wanted tags for my moccasins and I am getting very frustrated. Thank You
They don't seem to have the faux leather anymore 😢 and I'm having horrible luck finding some anywhere
I’ve ordered this one before and it worked fine amzn.to/42WdGAW
Can you engrave on the tags?
You can but it doesn’t show up well at all. For a quality engraving you need a layer
I downloaded this svg to my iPhone. But when I open my design space to upload file it doesn’t show up. But I can find it in my files folder on my iPhone but I do not know how to unzip.
You must unzip it. There are plenty of RUclips videos about iOS and unzipping I’m sure.
@@CorinneBlackstone I’ve done it a million times but for some reason it wouldn’t work. Just when I gave up it worked 🤦🏽♀️ thank you for your quick reply, greatly appreciated!
@@rachelsommerville4383 I swear that’s how life is. It just knows when to push you to the limit and then it’s like ok here I go I’ll work! Glad you got it!
@@CorinneBlackstone thanks again ;)
How did you get a blank txt box to write in, when I click txt it comes up with a box with TEXT already written in it.
Just type the text you want it to say the word text will go away
@@CorinneBlackstone I did that and it just add to the word text lol.
@@lucylovesvintage.4105 then delete the letters for text.
@@CorinneBlackstone I've given up lol, cant even see my writing in your beanie label lol
I do not think they have the Faux Leather that you use on the link you provided above can you send me the faux leather that you use.
This is another leather I have used www.amazon.com/dp/B07VC149R1/ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_api_gl_i_MYA25CWFVMY3WH80BW25?linkCode=ml1&tag=creativecra02-20
Your link for faux leather doesn't tell anything about the Company?! Where are they Shipping from??? ⁉️
It tells all sorts of things on their website. They ship from Kentucky
@@CorinneBlackstone the Faux leather Link. Usually there's an "About me" section. Or where it's shipping from. Neither are on the website.
Edit: Nothing such as I said appears on the "Home page" until you click on more... The Homepage should have all the links provided to tell a perspective buyer everything they need to know.
@@sherit8594 sorry I didn’t build the website. They are just the company i use due to their prices, customer service and fast shipping
@@CorinneBlackstone I'm just tired of buying "China". So important to me that it's not "Made in China". Glad to know it's Made in the United States 🇺🇸
How has the faux leather washed for you all?
Hi I'm having trouble downloading this free file
I’m not sure how to help you if you don’t provide the issue you are having.
@@CorinneBlackstone I don't know how to get the free template for the leather patches
@@hotlanta944 you need to join the website for free then go to the members only free SVG section and it’s in there
@@CorinneBlackstone Thanks
Can you use real leather?
Absolutely
Thank you
