Hi! Shemaine here today sharing a fun holiday gift idea using DECO FOIL™. I love making handmade ornaments for friends and family! Today I am sharing how to create this ornament using vinyl and deco foil. Let’s get started!
Therm-O-Web Supplies:
DECO FOIL™ TRANSFER SHEETS • RED
ICRAFT MIXED MEDIA ADHESIVE 2.1 FL OZ
Other Supplies: Cricut Design Studio, Oracal 651 outdoor vinyl, Glitter Pom-Poms, Holiday Ribbon, Craft plastic ornament
________________________________________________________________________
Project Instructions:
First, choose what you want to place on your ornament. I chose this Make it Now Charger in Design Studio. You are able to customize the project which I love. I sized the sentiment at 2.75 H
Adhere a 3×3 piece of Oracle 651 vinyl onto the Cricut mat and cut the image making sure the vinyl setting is used. I chose red vinyl to blend with the foil color I would be using because the back of the image is visible once it’s placed on the ornament.
Once the image is cut, use a weeding tool to get rid of the excess vinyl. Next, cut a piece of DECO FOIL™ TRANSFER SHEETS • RED at 3×3. Place the foil over the vinyl and run it thru the 12″ laminator. After it has cooled, peel away the foil to reveal the foiled sentiment.
Next cut a 3×3 piece of transfer tape and rub over the sentiment. Gently lift the transfer tape making sure the foiled vinyl sticks. This make take a few tries. Then lay the transfer tape with your design over the clear ornament and burnish with your fingers making sure there are no bubbles.
Fill the ornament with whatever you like using a little bit of ICRAFT MIXED MEDIA ADHESIVE 2.1 FL OZ around the edge of the plastic ornament to glue it. Finish with a festive bow and string to hand on the tree.
Thanks for stopping by!

December 5, 2016 at 6:07 am (8 years ago)Me neither I truly feel like I’m missing a step. It can’t possibly be that easily. I do have a few questions and I’ll try to keep it simple. I’ve got Cricut adhesive foil would that work the same way?i also am a hairdresser with multiple colors of foil sheets for when you do highlights so you can keep track of what color you apply where according to the color of foil. And for the laminating step I’ve got a Xyron Machine will that Work? Sorry to be such a P.I.A. I’ll make a deal though if you’ve got no idea about any of these questions and don’t respond I will report back with the result of my ‘Craft Room Experiment’ whether I’m successful or not.

As for laminating, unless the Xyron machine applies heat..it would not be recommended to use with our Deco foil. Hope that helps!

December 12, 2016 at 9:46 am (8 years ago)I’m buying some deco foil this weekend to try out and I already have the vinyl and the laminator that I’ve used for other foiling projects. If it works just like that, I’ll be sure to post back to confirm! 🙂
