It is Disney Fun Friday and today I am sharing a cute DIY Minnie Mouse inspired shirt. I love wearing character shirts especially to Disneyland so I thought why not make my own. This shirt ended up being really budget friendly because I found a great deal on the shirt at Wal-Mart. The shirt was only $2.88 and the Cricut vinyl roll can approximately cut out dots for 3 shirts.
Disclosure: I am part of the Cricut Blogger Program and I receive products/compensation in exchange for craft ideas. But all opinions are 100% my own. Some of the links are affiliate links, read my policy disclosure HERE. Let’s get started by gathering all our supplies:
- Cricut Explore Air 2
- Cricut EasyPress (or iron)
- Cricut EasyPress mat
- Red shirt
- White Iron On Vinyl
After gathering your supplies open up your Cricut Design Space and click the shapes icon on the left hand side and choose the circle. I made my circles 2 inches but I think 1.5 inches would also work great. After sizing one 2 inch circle I duplicated that into 14 more to have a total of 15 which luckily is just how many I needed for my red shirt.
Next, click make it and follow the on screen instructions to cut out your vinyl circles. When your circles are done cutting out remove the surrounding of the circles and cut them out individually.
Next, turn on your Cricut EasyPress so it can begin warming up (use your manual to find the settings for your shirt material). Then scatter the circle vinyls around the shirt. Make sure to place your shirt on top of the Cricut EasyPress mat.
Now that you have your vinyl circles positioned you can begin using your Cricut EasyPress (or iron) to start adhering them to the shirt. Do section by section and move the shirt onto the mat when ironing a new area. When you are done ironing on all the circles remove the clear plastic.
There you have it an easy DIY Minnie Mouse inspired shirt that is ready to wear for your next Disneyland adventure.
Happy crafting!
I love this idea! Such a cute Disney outfit!
Thank you so much Michelle!! I love how it turned out 😀
