I’m constantly looking for new places to put vinyl and iron-on vinyl around my home. My latest project is this set of summer napkins. I love the simple designs on the light blue napkin.

Monograms would also look cool if you don’t want to add these summer designs. (There’s a new monogram maker that’s included with Cricut Access.) Looks like I just found another project to add to my list!

DIY Napkins with Iron-on Vinyl

Supplies Needed:

Cloth Napkins
Iron-on Vinyl
Cricut (I’m using a Cricut Maker 3)
Cricut EasyPress
EasyPress Mat
Weeding Tools
SVG Designs* (the link is at the bottom of this post)

*Please note that the sun design in this SVG set needs to be attached before cutting. This keeps the design in place.

Cut and weed your design as usual.
Turn on the EasyPress and change the temperature. I’m using 100% cotton napkins, so I set it to 340º.
When the EasyPress is ready, place the napkin on the EasyPress mat.
Press the napkin for a few seconds. If it’s wrinkled, make sure that your press it long enough to remove any wrinkles.
Place the weeded iron-on vinyl design onto your napkin as desired. I opted to place mine angled in a corner.
Set the timer on the EasyPress for 30 seconds.
Apply the EasyPress and hit start on the timer.
Press the napkin until the timer goes off.
Remove the EasyPress and place it back in the base.
Flip the napkin over and press it for another 15 seconds.
Let the iron-on vinyl cool completely before removing the plastic backing.
Repeat the steps for the rest of your napkins.
