As we walked up and down the aisles of our local craft store, throwing different items into our cart, (we all know that we don't need anything, but we "just have to have it") we came across something that changed our DIY lives! Yes, you heard us correctly "Changed our DIY lives". The NEW Cricut Premium Iron-On Designs are here friends, and boy are they cute! There are over 50 designs available, with more on the way! Now, we are sure that you are scratching your head and wondering, "what are they and how will they change my life"? Here is the answer! These Iron-On Designs make it easy. They are perfect for apparel, home decor, tote bags and more.
You will find that we could not just stop at one project! We had several different designs to choose from and our minds were spinning as fast as a hamster runs on his wheel! The great thing about all of these Premium Iron-On Designs is that you can apply them just the way they are, or you can take your Cricut project to the next level by customizing it and making it your own.
Our first projects we are going to share with you are some Sports Organizers using the Iron-On Designs Love Soccer, Love Basketball, Love Volleyball, Love Baseball, and Love Football. Below you will see all of the supplies that we used to create our fun projects.

Step 1: Take your Cricut Iron-On Design out of the package and set aside. Step 2: Heat your EasyPress to 340 degrees Step 3: Pre Heat Cricut EasyPress Mat and project piece Step 4: Place your Iron-On Design Step 5: Press for 30 Seconds Step 6: Cold Peel You can find all of the EasyPress recommended settings page HERE *There are different instructions if you are using a towel in place of the EasyPress Mat. Shown Below we are Pre Heating our project. We Pre Heat for approx 5 seconds.
It's pressing time! EasyPress time that is. Using our Cricut EasyPress and EasyPress Mat, we laid our Cricut Iron-On Design onto our organizer box, and pressed.. Remember to check the EasyPress recommended settings page for different types of materials.
Directions for pressing Cricut Iron-On Designs: (Always heat your EasyPress Mat and the fabric slightly before adhering) Temperature Setting- 340* Time Setting-30 seconds on the front, 15 Seconds on the back (if the fabric allows. Our organizer boxes were a different type of fabric on the back so we skipped this step) COLD PEEL Care Instructions:* Allow 24 hours after application before washing. * Wash and tumble dry inside out. * Do not bleach. * If you need to iron, only iron on the backside of the garment.
We are thrilled with how our Sports Organizers turned out! No more cleats, gloves, mitts, or balls on the ground! Fill these babies up and keep things organized! Psssst... can we share a secret? This fun organization idea would work fantastic with any of the Cricut Iron-On Designs! We see many more organization projects in our future!!!
We are now going to share several other fabulous ideas we came up with using these amazing Iron-On Designs! Be sure to leave a comment and let us know which is your favorite!
Mermaid Chair
*Please note when making your own custom chair with your Cricut Iron-On Designs* Make sure that your chair is not plastic and that the material will work using the EasyPress or Iron.
Teacher Apron
What a perfect gift to give to an amazing teacher in your life. Also this is another fun project that you can create using many of the Cricut Iron-on Designs that are available.
Sloth Metal Sign
Remember when working with metal that the surface will become HOT so please be cautious. And allow to cool completely before handling.
Unicorn Pillowcase
This one is for sure going to be a hit with our nieces. But imagine all of the possibilities with this project. We can think of at least 50 (Wink Wink).
Panda Shoes
* We stuffed the shoes with oven mitts and covered the toe (where the rubber is so it wouldn't melt) and then followed the instructions to press.

When we looked at our plain old canvas teepee and pillows, we knew that the new Cricut Patterned Iron-on would add just the perfect splash of style. With the Cricut StrongBond guarantee, you will get long lasting iron-on results. (*Cricut stands behind it's Iron-On products with the Cricut StrongBond Gurantee, when used and applied as directed.) It is so easy to work with. The Cricut Patterned Iron-On is simply fabulous! Check out our detailed YouTube Video below.
There are currently nine different sampler packs that mix and match to offer an amazing color variety. Each of the sampler packs comes with 3-(different, but coordinating) 12"x17" sheets. Pull out your teepees, sheets, or pillows and let's get started! Below we have pictured all of the supplies that we used:
Click on any of our affiliate links below to find these supplies-
*Cricut Patterned Iron-On (Aquamarine Sampler & Sunset Blossom Sampler *Cricut Maker *Cricut EasyPress *Cricut EasyPress Mat *Cricut BrightPad *Cricut Foil Iron-On (Light Gold) *Cricut 12"x24" LightGrip Mat *Cricut 12"x12" LightGrip Mat *Cricut Weeding Tool Set *Canvas Teepee *Canvas Pillow Covers You can find all of the images needed to create this project here in Design Space. Once you have selected which designs and how many you want to cut, put your Cricut to work. We used our Cricut Maker. You can see it in action below: (Remember to cut Cricut Patterned Iron-On PATTERN SIDE DOWN on the mat, And cut "Mirror Image" when needed.)
The Cricut BrightPad makes weeding projects pretty darn easy! And, we have to admit, the Patterned Iron-On might be the easiest material to weed ever! Your pieces glide right off like butta'! Go on now, give it a try. Weed all of the pieces that you will be using on your project. It doesn't take long...
Hooray! You have now cut and weeded all of your project pieces! To create single rows of arrows (like those running around the bottom edge of our teepee and on one of our pillows), you just need to cut your sheets in half lengthwise. We simply used a ruler and a craft knife as shown in the photo below:
It's pressing time! EasyPress time that is. Using our Cricut EasyPress and EasyPress Mat, we attached all of our pieces to our teepee and pillows.
Directions for pressing Cricut Patterned Iron-On: (Always heat your EasyPress Mat and the fabric slightly before adhering) Temperature Setting- 340* Time Setting-50 seconds on the front, 15 Seconds on the back COLD PEEL We also used Light Gold Foil Iron-On, following the instructions included with our EasyPress.
We think our little "Tea Time Teepee" makes an adorable and cozy little play spot!
