Because everyone needs a Cricut rainbow kind of day

With the Cricut Maker everyday items like white t-shirts become works of art in minutes – well that’s what everyone tells you right? And normally I would agree but today, well that rainbow kind of day turned into a what the heck was I thinking kind of day! When multicolored balloons seem like a good idea, but you decide to abandon 5 different colours of Heat Transfer Vinyl for the much easier Rainbow option – well lets just say things can escalate quite quickly to a not so colorful day.

I mean it looks awesome but what nobody will tell you is that cutting it is the easy part and my Cricut handles that perfectly, weeding it is another story and well application can be tricky at times to put it nicely.

It cuts really easily on the Cricut Maker – and once you remember to cut it the right side – nothing much can go wrong! Or can it? So that all important test cut and scrap cotton ironing test was essential.

Weeding was, well challenging at times – so find a better light source, move to a brighter spot with natural light and well get those glasses. Yup one can say when reaching a certain age – weeding is not for the fainthearted.

And when you still don’t own a heat press that works {yet} you resort to going elsewhere to borrow an iron and ironing board because who owns that – and besides does anyone still bother since not having left the house in like forever – asking for a friend?

Well now all that’s left is hoping the client will love these t-shirts before they get totally trashed and full of dirt at go-kart day for 7 year olds. And did I mention how finding short sleeved white t-shirts is nearly impossible as we head into winter – asking for hens teeth was easier.

So when all is said and done – the remainder of this Rainbow Starflex can find its way to the bottom of the drawer for a very long time! My Cricut Maker and I will find some other rainbows to bond over for the remainder of the week.

So there you have it – if rainbows were made of Starflex alone we would be in trouble – but thankfully my Cricut Maker handles each and every challenging situation with grace and style and zero complaints. As for me, well I am working on paper rainbows and balloons with far less drama. Until next time keep ironing friends – because rainbows really do make each day much brighter.
