- {Sorry for the wonky video - still learning the ropes when it comes to editing. I threw in the towel and am sharing it as-is}.
In this video I’m sharing a cool little trick I figured out - how to finish the back side of cork and vinyl with HTV - heat transfer vinyl.
Here's a link to a scrapbuster video using our embellished vinyl: • Let's transform scraps...
This is perfect to add a bit of bling/polish for bag straps, tassels, unlined bags, hair bows, loops, and more!
In this video I’m doing my level best to see if I can ruin MY expensive vinyl and cork so you don’t ruin yours. (Spoiler Alert: I managed to ruin at least one).
If you’re new to HTV, I’ll explain what it is, how to tell it apart from sticky vinyl and most importantly, how to apply it.
The possibilities are ENDLESS. If you’re inspired by this technique please let me know what you created.
Happy crafting!

Thank you for the video. I like that you don’t edit mistakes or bloopers out. That’s how a lot of us learn & we make mistakes so you showing us yours help us not worry so much about ours.
Thank you for the video! Loved the commentary as well. My favorite part: "How's this for riveting you tube"?
Thank you! I had no idea making videos was going to be so hard! I now pay better attention to editing and director and producer awards for the Golden Globes! Those people are the rock stars!
Love the idea of covering up the stitches with HTV.
Thank you! Sometimes you just gotta fake it until you make it!
I've been thinking about using HTV for a while. Thanks for letting us see what it would look like.
I’m so happy it was helpful!
This is a great idea. I’m going to try my next Pocket Pal with some flock! Thanks for the video!
I hope you’ll tag me so I can see it!
Great idea!
Thank you!
Thankyou so much for your video it was very informative 👍🙂
I’m so glad it was helpful! Thank you for your comment!
all my stitching is still wonky! Love this idea so so much! and it looks great!
I say it’s time to embrace the wonky!!! It messy buns are a thing, wonky stitches are next!
Great experiments! Gonna try this. Thanks. Hello from So Calif. Arrived here via LindsHandmade. New subbie.
Thanks, Cyn! So great to see you here! Thanks for subscribing!
I have so much htv I haven't used great idea!
I’m so pleased it was a helpful idea!
@@CharmingCheek do you think I could use in back of fabric?
@@beebeej1 I’ve thought about it but am unsure. I worry that the adhesive wouldn’t be strong enough to prevent fraying.
However, if your seams weren’t left raw, then I can definitely see it working! Give it a try on a sample project and let us know how it goes.
@@CharmingCheek I will...thank you!
Is that parchment paper you use with your iron?
I use parchment paper and Teflon sheets.
You can get a nice effect by using the Cricut, or any iron-on foil.
Totally agree! So much fun to be had.
loved this thank you for sharing. How do you hold your tassels together? what type of glue, etc?
Hi Ann! I’m just wrapping up a tutorial to go over the tassel project! I use Fabri-Tac or hot glue. However, the hot glue doesn’t work for every vinyl. On some of the more foam-type of vinyl it peels off.
Thanks for doing this video. Very helpful! I’ve already put a zipper in a piece of faux leather and wasn’t sure if it could go over the zipper or not. Wanted to hide that zipper back. You’re the first one I found that addresses that. Off to try it. Thanks again!
I’m glad it was helpful! Fingers crossed for a successful project!
