I loved watching. It helps me to understand just why I need a Cricut EasyPress Mini!
Hello! Thanks for the simple demo. I’m new to the cricut world. ☺️
The mini makes sense! I can see where it would be super handy.
I'm glad I get the mini. I like projects on shoes, hats and towels. I think it will be perfect for those.
Definitely!
Thanks for doing a good video explaining in detail.
Wow, cool product
Hi Angela :)
great tutorial as always, you always explain things so clearly and makes following easy to understand :) love the cricut easy press mini....what I find a little disappointing is that they didn't include a timer, that would of been excellent...maybe they might make another one including a timer in the future that would be awesome :)
thank you for sharing this video, was very interesting and helpful :)
would like to see you use it with infusable ink :)
Happy creating and have a nice day :)
magz :)
Thank for sharing
I saw on HSN They put it only for 20 and rubbed instead of pressed. Came out nice. Then they did the 15sec. Rub like you did in the end except they didn’t press it just rubbed it with the mini.
I can't wait to use on the pasties I'm making & Bras!!!
I never even thought about making shoes.What a great idea!
I think it would have been easier to mod podge some sunflowers on! Anyway thanks for the video, I am definitely buying one of these.
It works so much better with a shoe form. If you are going to be doing shoes a lot, it is worth the cost and time to go and buy and form from a store. You can buy and sometimes get old ones the stores are throwing away. Just ask. Great tutorial! YOU ROCK!
Definitely! I will not be doing enough to justify the cost.
Amazon carries them starting at $3.99 and up. But again, some stores give their old ones away. Thanks for such a great tutorial, this comment was meant to help. L Have a blessed day.
Great tutorial! I am now convinced this is the one I definitely want. I have to confess, though, I found an almost identical product on Amazon. It has heat and timer functions and is less expensive.
Can you share which the one you found on Amazon please?
@@MsDstarr I'm not sure how to do that. Do you know how to do it?
@@LisaVornhagen haha no I don't either. I'm sorry I'm not very computer savvy. Hopefully someone can explain to us both how to do it. Lol!
@@LisaVornhagen Thank you For taking the time to share.I appreciate this so much.
@@MsDstarr You're welcome. I'm always willing to help when I can.
I wish Cricut would cater for Australia....been asking about it for over a year now and still nothing
its a shame as I would buy a lot of their products, and I am sure many would too that live in Aussie
Cricut has some awesome products, but unfortunately Australians can't buy them as they only cater for U.S Canada and UK....oh well can keep hoping....
Cricut are losing out, losing a lot of custom ....
keep up the great videos love them :)
Thanks again :)
magz :)
Thank you for great video. I am thinking of getting an EasyPress to use on projects like t-shirts, coasters and bags so nothing too big! Would you recommend mini press or next size up easypress?
Here is a video on which EasyPress to buy: ruclips.net/video/Y5AWeZMbvEQ/видео.html
Hi lovely. Thanks for your video. It was very useful as I’ve just recently purchased Cricut mini press. May I ask if you have to purchase a particular brand of canvas shoes to work on or will it work just as well on any plain canvas shoe? I’m asking because I’ve also purchased the mug press and I’m told that I need to purchase specific mug blanks to create with the mug press. Thanks in advance. X
Any shoes would work with this.
Seems like the heat made the canvas seperate from the lining of the shoe. You can see the bubbles on surface of the shoe underneath the area that was pressed.
Perhaps? They did look find once they were on.
Can you show the mini doing a dog image onto a hoodie or tee shirt?
I will definitely be getting this too. But I noticed where you pressed on the shoes the surrounding are puckered. Did it stay that way after it cooled?
There were some areas that did.
Hi Angie. First of thank you for all of the the instructional videos you provide to fellow crafters. I have been wanting to do shoes for quite some time, but I still have my doubts about the mini. I noticed your shoes bubbled, which is something I want to avoid. I also tried a certain paint that had to be heat set and the same thing happened with the fabric bubbling up. Is there any way to avoid this that you know of? Maybe I’m too picky, but to me those bubbles ruin the look of the shoes no matter how cute the design.
You would just have to find shoes made of other materials. Pretty much the cheap shoes will do this.
@@AngieHolden I will start hunting and if I find something that works I will let you know. Thank you for your quick response!! Have a great Easter weekend 😊
what temperatures are each level and do you know the difference in power strength of the mini compared to a travel iron or craft iron eg watts
I have not seen a published statement about the temperature at each level. Also not sure on watts used.
Ok this maybe a little off topic or not....I knit and was wondering can you apply things to a knitted project using the mini press? I’m new to knitting and was just wondering.
I don't see why not! I have not ever tried it though.
Come like 👍
I’m wondering if the Easy Press Mini would be useful to use when pressing the seems on small quilting projects?
Yes! I know some people that use it for that!
@@AngieHolden thanks Angie
Can you apply permanent vinyl to the rubber on the tennis shoes?
No. I don't think it will work.
Does it get hot enough to use with infusible ink ?
Yes it does! Stay tuned as I hope to use do some tests soon!
Hello there! I have this hot mini press , where can i get design and what materialare those? Thanks
These were all in Cricut Design Space.
What transfer paper did you use? Can you use any or will some melt?
I used what came on the HTV that I am using. You have to use some that is rated for HTV.
@Angie Holden What’s HTV? Also, how did you make the shapes?
Hi Sorry where on earth did the sunflowers come from? What is weeding?!
I think the sunflowers were an image in Cricut Design Space. Weeding is just the removal of anything that you don't want applied to your surface.
Will the mini work well on a mug?
I don't like it for mugs.
What transfer paper do I use?
With heat transfer vinyl, the transfer paper comes on it. You can see more about general HTV directions here: ruclips.net/video/-S6DzXe5p64/видео.html
I’ve been trying to label my girls’ clothes but whenever I iron it the label doesnt stick just stains the fabric. What am I doing wrong?
Try this: ruclips.net/video/-S6DzXe5p64/видео.html
Goes the foil up after wash?
It should wash fine.
I will be trying this. I think you have to keep the press moving...that’s what all the other videos say, is that incorrect?
You can definitely do that! I find it easier on the shoes to hold it still since the surface is curved.
What material were the shoes?
Canvas.
@@AngieHolden great video! I had a question I noticed that the canvas looked warped after you applied iron on. Will it go back to normal once cooled and worn? Thanks!
@@The87musicdude Yes, I noticed this as well and do not like that at all.
Couldn't you just use a regular iron ? How is the easy press different from an iron? Just curious
I actually love how small it is for things like the shoes. This is from a girl that melted a pair or shoes trying to use a regular iron....

An iron does Not distribute heat evenly at all, but all of the easypresses do. Also the iron does not have a way to control the exact temperature but the easy press does. The only one that does not let you control the exact temperature to the exact degree is the mini but they have it made where the low, medium and high temp is a set temperature so really they all set to an exact degree. The other easy presses you can set a timer as well as pick the exact temperature you want, down to a specific degree. example would be say you want 377 degrees you can do that which is extremely helpful. And they all have the Teflon smooth plates and even heat distribution. None of which you can do with an iron and remember and iron does not have even heat distribution. I've also ran into a problem with irons is the little holes on the bottom of the iron that you can have steam come out end up leaving an imprint in your vinyl and material of that imprint if you use that part of the iron which really sucks.
Also you can switch between Fahrenheit and Celsius with the easy presses
I wish the cricut presses were cordless..:)
That would be a dream come true!
This kinda looks like it messed up the integrity of the shoe.
It did fine. I completely melted one before so trust me this one is fine! HA!
