Cricut Tutorial: How to design, cut & apply iron-on vinyl (HTV) to create personalised robes for your wedding!
***
Weddings aren’t just about the wedding itself, oh no! It’s the whole experience! There’s a series of events from engagement parties to bridal showers to bachelorettes to rehearsal dinners and more. There’s also those slightly less well defined ‘events’, such as the ‘Wedding Morning’, where you and your bridesmaids, with the help of your hair/makeup suppliers, are getting ready for the big moment. It’s a fun, bonding, exciting, potential slightly nervy, time. It’s all part of the build-up and all adds to the magic of the day. Your photographer typically arrives during this time too, capturing some of those special getting ready moments. If you’re trying to think through the planning of your wedding morning, check out this video, “Wedding Morning Planning Tips”.
Personalising items such as coordinating robes and slippers for the bride / bridesmaids is a lovely treat for everyone, makes the group feel connected and cohesive – especially if not everyone knows each other well, and looks great in those first photos.
Our latest Cricut tutorial shows you how to customise those robes yourself and sits perfectly alongside all these tutorials we’ve already made for you (pictured above)! We take you step-by-step, so if you’re a complete beginner to Cricut, you’ll definitely be able to handle this project and craft your way into wedded bliss!
