Easter Bucket SVG – How to Add Vinyl To A Easter Bucket
- Download the free Easter bunny SVG files in my Freebie Vault.
- Upload the Easter SVG files to Design Space. Learn how to upload an SVG to Cricut here.
- Scale your free Easter bunny SVG files to the proportional size of your bucket.
- Cut your bunny SVG out. I recommend using permanent adhesive vinyl. In general, you will set the material to permanent vinyl in Design Space.
- Once cut, weed your vinyl. I like to use my Cricut Bright Pad for this. If you do not have, or want one, you can hold your vinyl up to a window to aid the weeding process! Check out my other Cricut vinyl hacks here!
- Make sure your bucket is dust free by wiping it down.
- Using your transfer tape to pick up the design by burnishing (rub) the design onto the transfer tape. Do you struggle with transfering vinyl? Watch my vinyl and Cricut hacks video to pick up my tricks!
- Carefully pick up the vinyl with the transfer tape. If any pieces are not sticking, place the tape back down and burnish again.
- Start in the middle of your design, letting the center touch the bucket first and then the two sides fall down to help minimize wrinkles.
- Burnish the bunny onto the bucket and remove the transfer tape.
- Work out any air bubbles gently with the scraper.
- Add a dot of hot glue to the tail and place the pompom!
You could also cut out your child’s name in vinyl and add it to the bucket as well to personalize it! Learn more about using fonts and text in Design Space here!
