I am excited to showcase the new EasyPress 2 and the cute project I made. Today I will show you how to customize a plain makeup bag. This project couldn’t come at a more perfect time because with the holidays right around the corner it will make a great personalized gift.

I have the original EasyPress and have loved using it for so many fun projects like these shark shirts I made for my boys. And although the original is still amazing the new EasyPress 2 does top it. To start off they added 2 new sizes to the EasyPress line up, the 6×7 (which is the one I will showcase today) and a 10×12 which I will share projects with in the near future. Other great features that were added to the new EasyPress 2 is that it heats up 25% faster than the original and it can reach up to a 400° temperature.
