Can you believe July is almost over?! 😱 Before Can you believe July is almost over?! 😱
Before it slips away, I had to share one more dose of Christmas in July magic! ✨🎄
Every year, one of my favorite holiday traditions is turning my coffee bar into a cozy little hot cocoa bar, and it seriously brings all the festive feels.
There’s just something so magical about sipping hot cocoa by the glow of a Christmas tree, even if it’s 90 degrees outside! 😍☕️
Bring on the marshmallows and twinkle lights, cozy season is always welcome here.
Who says festive drinks are just for December?! 🎄✨
These pomegranate rosemary ice cubes are one of my favorite holiday hacks, and they’re too pretty not to use year-round.
They instantly turn sparkling water into a chic little mocktail, and they look absolutely magical as they melt! 😍
So of course I had to bring them out for Christmas in July!
You can swap in cranberries too, so many fun combos to try!

Time to make your drinks a little more merry & bright! Even in July!
Is it even late summer if you’re not already dre Is it even late summer if you’re not already dreaming of Starbucks fall drinks?! 🍁🍎
I don’t go often, but once those cozy fall flavors hit the menu, I’m there daily.
So while we all impatiently wait, I decided to make my own Apple Oatmilk Macchiato at home… and y’all, it tastes just like the real deal!
I dropped the full recipe on the blog so you can make it too:

One of my little tomatoes popped off the vine while I was fixing the trellis (rude). But listen, I’ve put way too much love into these raised beds to let anything go to waste. So I sliced it up, fried it Southern-style, and WOW… crispy, tangy, perfection.
Honestly? Might “accidentally” knock a few more off the vine just to make another batch 😏

How To Make a T-Shirt With Cricut’s Infusible Ink

So y’all know that here recently I got a Cricut machine. I shared all about it in my DIY Plant Labels before. But I also got the Cricut Heat Press 2 and I haven’t really used it until recently. And let me tell y’all, it is a game changer. I am having so much fun using it and learning from it. I just recently made a shirt and it turned out so cute. So I thought I would share with you today how to make a t-shirt with Cricut’s infusible ink.

Their infusible ink is a cool product because unlike vinyl, it actually infuses into the material of the t-shirt. So it’s not like ironing on vinyl to a shirt. It literally becomes a part of the shirt so I love that!

I decided to make a cute July 4th themed shirt since it is coming up so soon. Keep on reading to see just how easy it is to make!

Cricut Infusible Ink T-Shirt
Here is how it turned out! Isn’t it just so cute?!

This post contain affiliate links. Click here to read my disclosure policy.

Materials Needed:

  • Cricut Easy Press 2 Machine
  • Infusible Ink Sheet (I used the color Cherry Red for this project)
  • Cricut Explore Air 2 Machine
  • Cricut Standard Grip Mat
  • White Butcher Paper
  • A blank t-shirt
  • Hydrogen Peroxide
  • Spray bottle
  • Lint Roller

Design Your T-Shirt

The first step is to design whatever you want your shirt to say in Cricut design space. Like I said above I wanted to do a cute Fourth of July shirt for our family cookout coming up.

I decided to use the phrase “barbecue stain on my white t-shirt”. Because if you don’t know, it is a classic line from a popular Tim McGraw song, Something Like That.

And I figured it’s just perfect for summer too. Because I know even after Fourth of July we love to have a good barbecue too! Basically, you can get as creative as you want here to do this.

I just typed it into design space using the font “Cricut Sans”. They also have already made designs and sayings that you can choose from too, if you want it to be even easier!

Loading Infusible Ink into Cricut Machine
Loading the Infusible Ink Sheet into my Cricut Machine.

After you have completed your design on design space, you can now print it out with your Cricut machine. I have the Explore Air 2 machine and love it.

But even if you have an older printer model, it should work just fine to print out your design. Simply place your infusible ink sheet on the standard grip mat and load it into the machine.

Now this is real important- when you go to print your design in design space, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE MIRROR OPTION TURNED ON.

It needs to be backwards when you print it out, otherwise it will print backwards on your shirt when you apply the heat press.

Also, have the dial turned to “custom” and then choose the infusible ink sheet option on design space before printing.

Get The Infusible Ink Sheet Ready For The Heat Press

The next step in How To Make a T-Shirt With Cricut’s Infusible Ink, is to carefully peel off the sheet from the standard grip mat. Then, using scissors cut around the design.

You can use the excess paper for another project! Once you have it cut down to size, remove the backing from the text.

Infusible Ink Sheet
This is what it looks like after cutting it down to size.

It can be a little time consuming to remove the backing and try to work carefully so you don’t tear your text or design.

But, after I have done this a few times, it becomes easier and easier to do. Just work slowly at first until you get the hang of it!

Design Ready for T-Shirt
As you can see here it is backwards, which is what we want!

Prepare the T-Shirt for the Easy Press

Now that your design is all ready to go, you need to prepare your t-shirt. You need to use a lint roller on it to remove any loose debris or fibers.

Skipping this step is not ideal because if there are any loose fibers on the shirt, they can burn and/or turn a different color when using the heat press.

Lint Rolling T-Shirt
Lint rolling the t-shirt!

After lint rolling, you need to add in a piece of butcher paper under the shirt. Then place the shirt on the Easy Press mat that comes with your Cricut.

Make sure the mat is right under where you are going to be applying heat. Once you have the shirt all set up, apply the infusible ink sheet design on there.

Now once you stick it on the shirt, you should see it is no longer backwards. The backing of the infusible ink shirt is sticky so it should stick just fine on your shirt.

However, you can also use heat resistant fabric tape too for an extra secure stick if you want.

Applying the design on the t-shirt
You can see I just lined up the design the best I could in the middle of the shirt. Now it is just ready to add in a little heat!

Use the Cricut Heat Press on Your T-Shirt

Now for the fun part on How To Make a T-Shirt With Cricut’s Infusible Ink! You are ready to use the heat press machine! Be sure to preheat your machine before using it.

I did it on the standard setting, 385 degrees for 40 seconds. It should light up red while preheating and then turn green and chirp when it is ready to go.

Cricut Easy Press 2
This is what the machine looks like when it is ready to go.

Be sure to also put another sheet of butcher paper on top of your t-shirt. This helps prevent it from scorching the fabric too much.

After you have the butcher paper on the shirt and the machine pre-heated, you are ready to go! Just place the Easy Press machine right down on top of your design.

Press the start button and then use firm pressure for the full 40 seconds. Then, remove the Easy Press and let the shirt cool down.

Butcher Paper on t-shirt
Here I have the butcher paper on the shirt, ready for the Easy Press!

Finish Up Your T-Shirt

Be sure to let the shirt cool completely before handling it, it will be hot to touch! Then, you can remove the butcher paper and carefully peel of the sticky part of the infusible ink sheet.

Be sure to remove it slowly and carefully because you don’t want to have the infusible ink accidentally touch another surface on the shirt. It could stain it if so.

T-shirt after heat press
This is what it looked like right after the heat press was on it.

As you can see above, there are some scorch marks present from the Easy Press machine. No worries! I have a simple fix for this! I used hydrogen peroxide and poured it into a spray bottle.

Then, I just went around the shirt where the burn marks where present and sprayed them down. I let it sit awhile and then placed it in the wash.

Simply turn the shirt inside out and wash it in cold water and it will be just fine! You will notice when you do this more and more, that some shirts will scorch and others won’t.

It just depends on what fabric the shirts are made of really. But as you can see, you don’t need to fret if they do scorch a little!

Spraying Shirt With Hydrogen Peroxide
You can see here how I sprayed the hydrogen peroxide all around the scorch marks.

Conclusion

Well I hope I answered all your questions in How To Make a T-Shirt With Cricut’s Infusible Ink. As you can see, it is a pretty fun process once you get the hang of it!

And the possibilities for shirt making are endless once you have everything you need. If you are a creative person like myself, then you definitely need to think about investing in some Cricut products!

I have really been loving all of them so far and enjoy crafting so much more now. Have you ever tried out Cricut’s Infusible Ink? If so, I would love to know! Tell me all about it below!

    This is a very cool DIY. I used to loved designing T-shirts. Reading your post makes me want to do T-shirt designs again. But first, I need to know where can I get that machine in Malaysia. Hehehe.

    I’ve just started my crafting journey and have considered getting myself a circuit cutter. Having the room to use it is the only issue, though, as I have limited space!

      You should definitely get one! I was worried about space too, but I got a little table that has a bottom shelf too and I place the explore machine on top and the heat press on the shelf and it works pretty well for storage and it looks cute too!

    This project is so cute! I love that you’ve taken the lyrics from a song and replicated them on your design. Also, I love your nails! Thanks for sharing.

    Oh wow! DIY clothes! That’s really neat. I never really figured to use cricut for anything other than making stickers, but this is cool! I don’t own a machine, but it’s definitely interesting!

Can you believe July is almost over?! 😱 Before Can you believe July is almost over?! 😱
Before it slips away, I had to share one more dose of Christmas in July magic! ✨🎄
Every year, one of my favorite holiday traditions is turning my coffee bar into a cozy little hot cocoa bar, and it seriously brings all the festive feels.
There’s just something so magical about sipping hot cocoa by the glow of a Christmas tree, even if it’s 90 degrees outside! 😍☕️
Bring on the marshmallows and twinkle lights, cozy season is always welcome here.
Who says festive drinks are just for December?! 🎄✨
These pomegranate rosemary ice cubes are one of my favorite holiday hacks, and they’re too pretty not to use year-round.
They instantly turn sparkling water into a chic little mocktail, and they look absolutely magical as they melt! 😍
So of course I had to bring them out for Christmas in July!
You can swap in cranberries too, so many fun combos to try!
Get the easy how-to on the blog:

Time to make your drinks a little more merry & bright! Even in July!
Is it even late summer if you’re not already dre Is it even late summer if you’re not already dreaming of Starbucks fall drinks?! 🍁🍎
I don’t go often, but once those cozy fall flavors hit the menu, I’m there daily.
So while we all impatiently wait, I decided to make my own Apple Oatmilk Macchiato at home… and y’all, it tastes just like the real deal!
I dropped the full recipe on the blog so you can make it too:

I’ve been using @biogrowth_organics liquid catalyst every two weeks and y’all… the difference is WILD.
Just look at these baby tomatoes and black-eyed peas popping off 😍
Can’t wait for my first real harvest, this stuff is the secret sauce! 🧪💚 And you can use my coupon code “CHARITY10” for 10% off too!!

When life gives you a fallen green tomato… you f When life gives you a fallen green tomato… you fry it 🍅🔥
One of my little tomatoes popped off the vine while I was fixing the trellis (rude). But listen, I’ve put way too much love into these raised beds to let anything go to waste. So I sliced it up, fried it Southern-style, and WOW… crispy, tangy, perfection.
Honestly? Might “accidentally” knock a few more off the vine just to make another batch 😏

Call me unhinged, but I’m deep into Christmas in July and I’m not sorry about it. Twinkle lights, cozy vibes, hot cocoa (okay, iced cocoa) ☕️ I want it all.
If you’re craving a little festive magic in the middle of summer, you’re in the right place. Come obsess over Christmas decor and cozy inspo with me, the AC is blasting and the nostalgia is real. ❄️✨

Charleston had me in a chokehold (again), so naturally I said “why not?” to 24 more hours in my favorite city 💕 We hit all our fave spots, soaked in every last bit of charm, and it was so worth it. Now back to reality… and counting down to the next getaway (even if it’s a long wait 😅)
I hadn’t stepped foot in @belk in ages… but wh I hadn’t stepped foot in @belk in ages… but when @caconover & @sewingdownsouth dropped their collab, I ran! 🏃‍♀️
We were able to check out the cutest downtown Charleston Sewing Down South pop-up store and I instantly fell in love with this dress 😍 The print has all the iconic Charleston landmarks and it has pockets, say less!
Comfy, cute, and totally made for strolling these historic streets all day 🌸
