  • Episode 1 : Christmas Trends For Crafting With Cricut Silhouette Sublimation or Laser
    Nov 8 2024

    Hey crafty friends! Welcome to Episode 1 of “The Craft Stache,” where I, Justina, along with my co-hosts Laura and Sarah, are diving headfirst into this season’s “Viral Christmas Trends.” We’re three crafty moms who love to yap about all things DIY, and today, it’s all about what’s hot, what’s trending, and what will make your holiday crafts shine.

    To kick things off, we’re talking about the sublimation ornament craze. If you’re looking for a quick, professional-looking holiday item to sell or gift, these are a must-have. Laura breaks down why sublimation is such a hit with newbies and pros alike—it’s affordable, versatile, and the perfect item for craft fairs. Sarah, our materials wizard, offers up tips on keeping costs low while maximizing your profit margins, and we discuss the ins and outs of sourcing materials, personalization, and pricing strategies. And if you’ve ever wondered how to make your craft booth pop, we’ve got you covered!

    Next, we’re getting hands-on with embroidery trends, from the adorable hip-applique bows to turning cherished baby clothes into keepsakes. Laura has a fun hack for using Cricut Infusible Ink pens for quick personalization, and we share the creative ways to blend embroidery with vinyl and sublimation for a truly custom look. And yes, Justina here may not have a craft machine (yet), but I’m still curating all the top-selling designs over at Design Bundles and bringing you the insider scoop.

    Of course, what’s a holiday craft chat without a few laughs? From Laura’s infamous crafting mishaps—like setting machines on fire (again)—to exploring a surprisingly intense Facebook group obsessed with Walmart nutcrackers, it’s all fair game. We’re going deep into the Nutcracker trend, DIY holiday decor, and even why snowmen might be dethroning gnomes as the Christmas icon of the year. And trust us, we’ve got thoughts on that!

    We’ve also got tips on cutting felt with laser machines, using wax paper hacks, and even a super cool way to use regular inkjet printers for DTF printing. No sublimation printer? No problem—we’ve got alternatives that still deliver amazing results!

    So, join us for this journey through all things Christmassy, crafty, and absolutely chaotic. “The Craft Stache” is here to sprinkle some joy, offer some pro tips, and make you feel like you’re chatting with your craftiest friends. Got ideas or want to share your own crafting triumphs (or hilarious fails)? Hit us up in the comments or send us a message. Until next time, stay crafty!
