Summer is coming to an end so soon and since Aubrey is going back to school, I wanted to share how we do our movie nights around here! Let’s have a movie night with Cricut! I don’t like taking both kids to the movie theatre by myself so I decided to bring the movie theatre to my house!
All thanks to Cricut I’m able to customize pretty much anything. I’ve made so many things but this has to be one of my favorites. It’s so very simple but so much fun. Creating a whole movie night set up for my kids was the best. The look on those little faces was just magical. So I’m going to walk you through how I did each project here.
I did fake movie tickets, candy bags for the kids, a “candy bar”, Chocolate overload candy jar, and even made us t-shirts for our movie nights! It was a blast! So let’s get started!
The first thing I did was get all of my supplies together.
First thing I did was created my design for each project in Cricut Design Space.
I used all Cricut’s Fonts and even Images. They have so many to pick from!
I made sure to change the movie tickets to pen/draw so it wouldn’t cut them out!
First I grabbed my card-stock and placed it on the mat, then I inserted my Cricut pen, loaded mat, the mat then did all the work! The fake movie tickets came out so cute!! I just cut them out with my Cricut cutter. So easy!
Then, I got all of my Iron On and Vinyl ready and started cutting it all out.
I did all the iron on first and then the vinyl.
****REMEMBER TO MIRROR AND PLACE SHINY SIDE DOWN FOR IRON ON.****
Once I had it all cut out, I got to weeding it out.
Then once I had it weeded out, I set my iron on to the side and got my vinyl ready with some transfer tape.
You want to transfer the vinyl to the transfer tape then transfer it to your project. Try to pull away slowly so it all transfers to your project.
Once you’ve got your vinyl all transferred to your projects, grab your t-shirts, easy press and iron-on.
Turn your easy press on to 365 and let it warm up.
Place your design on your t-shirt how you want it. Make sure to place t-shirt on the easy press mat before pressing.
Once your easy press is warmed up, get to to pressing!
I did 30 seconds for each t-shirt.
Then peel the plastic off and you are ready to get your snacks in your basket!
Place the snacks into the basket, candy jar and throw on those t-shirts and get your movie on! I made the kids personalized candy bags so they could really pick out what they wanted and had a bag of candy for the movie!
We had such a blast and I’m so excited to have this for all of our movie nights. You can really customize anything and make it yours.
That’s the best part about having a Cricut, you can make anything and everything! I make my kids birthday shirts and it’s the best! Movie nights, crafts, diy, back to school supplies and so much more! They also just came out with the explore air 3 and maker 3. I just got the maker 3 in the mail and I can’t wait to get to crafting with it! Stay tuned for more exciting crafts with my Cricut!
