Video Tutorial – Frankenstein Bucket

Here are the steps I took to make the Frank Buckets

Step 1 – Lets prep our Buckets! Scrape the stickers off the lid and the bucket. I used a scrapper to get mine off. I found if i could lift a section and then get under I could lift the sticker off and remove. Use the acetone and cotton pad to remove any residual parts. Once that is done use the Alcohol and a pad to clean and prep your surface. Set aside to dry. I reused a bucket so this was already done.

Step 2 – Now load your free file into your cutting software and cut it out in your vinyl of choice.

Step 3 – Now to weed our vinyl
- Start with weeding vinyl – I find a pin pen helps to remove the small pieces of vinyl from the center of the words. I also like to use weeding boxes too.
- Apply transfer tape for the face. When I cut my vinyl out I put the hair, stitches and eyes together. Then i could place the rest of the facial features as I wanted.
- Peel off vinyl backing off.
- Now apply the face to the bucket. I did a hinge method. The hinge method is where you take part of the backing away from the vinyl. Apply that half. Then fold over and apply the other half.
- Next apply the nose base and mouth.
- Time for the Eyes and tooth. I used parchment paper to do this part. Apply the transfer tape to the eye balls and pull the backing off. Lay your parchment paper on the bucket. Now line your eyes up. Once you have it where want it. Attach the transfer tape to the bucket. Then lift it up, remove the parchment and lay the eyes and transfer tape down.
- Repeat to do the tooth and nose center.
Step 4 – Assemble and add your light. You could use double sided tape or hook and loop if you want your light to stay in one spot.

Step 5 – Play with the fun lights, I turned my to green for Frank and enjoy!!!

Video Tutorial – Happy Fall Pumpkins

Here are the steps I took to make the Happy Fall Pumpkins Door Mat

Step 1 – Using a sublimation printer, ink and paper, print the PNG file out. There are two different PNG files to choose from. The difference is the big pumpkin. MAKE SURE YOU MIRROR THE PRINT!

Step 2 – Heat up your heat press to 400 degrees.

Step 3 – While the heat press is warming up use the lint roller to clean the mat off. Then put the image on the mat. Use heat tape to tape it down well. I have a 15x15in press so I had to do 2 presses. I also wanted to make sure that the image does not move while moving the mat. So use enough tape to make sure it doesn’t. I also found something to lift the mat side up that was not in the press. The goal is to avoid ghosting images.

Step 4 – Once everything taped down and the press is at 400 degrees. Place a piece of parchment or butcher paper over the image. Press for 60 seconds.

Step 5 – Once the first press is done, move the mat to the other side and press again.

Step 6 – Pull the image off the mat once everything is complete

Step 7 – BONUS – Let’s make a shirt. Take your shirt and place a piece of parchment paper between the layers of the shirt.

Step 8 – Place image on the shirt and tape down and press for 60 seconds. – REMEMBER: when using colored shirt you will pick up a more of a vintage look.

Step 8 – Enjoy!

Hello pumpkin let’s make you in 3D
Hello Pumpkin! Today I am sharing with you my pumpkin signs that I used to make a 3D Pumpkin. The cutting file comes with Hello Pumpkin, Hey Pumpkin and Blessed for your word choices. These are great addition to a table center piece, your fall decorations or a special gift for a friend.

I make my 3D pumpkins with ovals and round. You can cut them yourself or pick some up at your favorite craft location. I cut my ovals and round, however, to help them stand up I used tumble tower blocks from the Dollar Tree. Then using modge podge to attach leopard print tissue paper to the pump centers.

This weeks FREE Pumpkin Signs SVG/cut file can be found in the Freebie Library. File number is 52 (remember the password is always in the bottom of your weekly email from me).

Video Tutorial – 3D Pumpkin

Here are the steps I took to make the Hello Pumpkin 3D Pumpkins

Step 1 – Give your wood a light sanding. Cut your tissue paper or even napkins to be slightly larger then your oval or circle. Then take your polyacrylic (or modge podge) and put a thin layer on the center wood piece for the pumpkins. Then apply your tissue paper to the poly. layer. Then while smoothing it out apply a thin layer over it. Remember, you do not need a lot.

Step 2 – While the centers are drying paint your other pieces and the tumble tower blogs (these are used to help your pumpkins stand up. You can leave the sides and back unpainted if you would like. If you are planning on doing a trio of pumpkins you can paint your pumpkins different colors.

Step 3 – While everything is drying. Cut out the words on your cutting machine. There are 3 options for you. I also curved them to go on left or right side of the pumpkin. Weed your vinyl. If the words are too small you can always do a reverse weed. Apply your transfer tape to the vinyl.

Step 4 – Glue your pumpkins together. The painted pieces will go behind the pattern piece. I used hot glue. You can also use E6000 to make sure it holds. I used the center piece and one of the back pieces first. Applied my glue and then stood it up on end to make sure it was even on the bottom. Then repeated to add the 3rd piece.

Step 5 – Glue the tumble tower blocks to the back. I glued them up just slightly. I wanted a little tilt. Not much, just a little.

Step 6 – Glue the stick to the top of the pumpkin for the stem.

Step 7 – Apply your vinyl words to the pumpkin(s)

Step 8 – Add some ribbon, jute, raffia, etc to the stem to finish the pumpkin off. You can tie a knot or bow.

Step 8 – Enjoy!
