Materials

Here are the materials you’ll need for all these projects:

• Assortment of neon plates, cups, shot glasses, trays and napkins from the dollar store.

• Drink Pouches

• Can Coolers

• Black Adhesive Vinyl

• Cricut

• Iron-On Vinyl

• Iron/ Heat Press

• Holographic Vinyl

Here's everything I purchased from the dollar store.

1. Custom Year Plates

Step 1: Measure the space on the plate where the graphic will be placed.

Step 2: Choose a bold font in Cricut Design Space and resize it to fit the area on the plates. Then, click "make it" to cut.

Step 3: Separate and cut the graphics from the vinyl. Stick on transfer tape and peel off the numbers.

Step 4: Attach the transferred vinyl onto the plate and remove the tape.

Step 5: Finish that process for the remaining plates.

2. Personalized Drink Pouches

Step 1: Grab packs of drink pouches from the dollar store.

Step 2: Use Cricut Design Space to design personalized text for the pouch names.

Step 3: Use the Cricut to make and cut the names. (I used permanent holographic vinyl).

Step 4: Weed the excess material from the vinyl.

Step 5: Use transfer tape to transfer a different name to each drink pouch.

3. Graphic Can Coolers

Step 1: Layout the can coolers you plan to use.

Step 2: Replicate "Party Vibes Only" in Cricut Design Space for every can cooler that will be embellished.

Step 3: "Make it" and set the base material to iron-on.

Step 4: Use an iron or heat press to adhere the text to the can coolers.

4. Customized Party Napkins

Step 1: Gather the color napkins you want to use.

Step 2: Create your text and update the dimensions that you want to have for the napkins.

Step 3: Select "make it" and choose the iron-on base setting (mirror the cut). Remove the extra vinyl.

Step 4: Use an iron or heat press to iron the numbers on to each napkin.

5. Customized Cups

This is the selection of neon cups that I bought from the dollar store.

Step 1: Adjust the dimensions to fit the size of the cups and the shot glasses. Make sure to "attach" the numbers. Duplicate the set of numbers to fulfill the quantity of cups and "make it."

Step 2: Weed the vinyl and transfer to the shot cups.

Step 3: Make individual cuts for the cups, weed the vinyl, and apply it to the cups.

6. Customized Tray

Step 1: Measure the interior of the tray and cut the numbers individually to fit and adhere them inside the tray.
