See below for the step by step how to make a mixed HTV onesie.

Designed In Design Space

Design space allows for quick and easy creation and editing of any design. This Poop design is from Love SVG for FREE. I adore the FREE SVG files on Love SVG.  The designs are free for personal use (make and give, NOT sell). Purchase a commercial license for a reasonable price for items intended to be sold.  Definitely check them out if you haven’t done so already. Adding a name would personalize this gift. Find hundreds of fonts, many of them for FREE on dafont.com. Another great idea for personalization is to use monograms. For monograms dafont.com has a FREE font called Monogram kk.

Cut Out With My Cricut

Use an electronic cutting machine to cut out the design.  The design can be cut out by hand on glitter heat transfer vinyl (HTV) and plain HTV material, though there are some pretty intricate cuts that would be best cut and done with an electronic cutter.  I have and LOVE the Cricut maker.  The maker quickly and easily cut the words out of the heat transfer vinyl (HTV) material. Unwanted excess material was subsequently removed, or also known as “weeded.” See my Cricut maker review here.

Heat Transfer Vinyl (HTV)

For this project, the heat transfer vinyl (iron on) was all Cricut brand. I highly recommend that people price compare to get the best quality and price for all materials. The Cricut glitter and everyday iron on heat transfer vinyl (HTV) was purchased directly from Cricut during a big sale. Cricut also has wonderful mystery boxes for more frugal spenders. Amazon also has multiple options as well, like the glitter HTV variety pack. Favorite non-Cricut brands include Siser and Oracal. Remember to do test cuts before cutting the design because settings may be slightly different for alternative brands.

There is also plain heat transfer iron-on from AliExpress. Plain heat transfer vinyl is normally $3.87, and is often on SALE for $1.99.  Just remember that purchases from AliExpress come directly from China, so it’s necessary to allow for longer shipping times.  AliExpress is similar to Wish, but AliExpress has items that ship for FREE, like this one.

Onsies

Blank onesies can be found at many retailers in bulk, like Walmart and Target. Amazon has 5, 8, and 15 size packs.

Glitter Iron On With The Easy Press

Ironing on the design was super simple and was done easily as seen in the YouTube video above.  Using the Easy Press at 320 degrees, both the glitter and everyday iron on HTV materials were laid out, at the same time, directly on top of the shirt. 320 degrees is right in the middle of the recommended temperatures for the glitter iron on (330 degrees) and the every day iron on (315 degrees). The entire design was ironed on initially for 15 seconds with a teflon sheet between to protect both the heat press and the project.  To fully set and adhere the HTV a final press was done, after the clear transfer carrier sheet was removed, for another 15 seconds. This process can also be done with a home iron on the high cotton setting. I have used both. The Cricut Easypress provides much more consistent, easy, and professional results.
