How to Screen Print with Cricut

[@dinosaurmamasvg]

I have been afraid to try screen printing but I might have to give it a go!!

[@weekend-craft]

Oh you totally got this! Start with one color and you'll do great. You can even test it out on some cardstock.

[@samarrababble2068]

Can you use the screen again for other designs? Or is the vinyl stuck on there for good?

[@weekend-craft]

You can definitely reuse the screen. Just peel it off and wash it well.

Would it be okay to not use the cricut heat press and use a regular iron?

[@tilisahicks7876]

Do you just wash with soap and water to reuse? Thanks! This was a very helpful video!

[@weekend-craft]

Yes! I use down dish soap and water. Works great!

A heat press has a more even heat plate then a house hold iron. But a household iron should work.

Thank you!

Yes you can just iron it a bit longer and don’t add any water to your iron.

Great video tutorial! Is there any restriction with color or material for screenprinting with the Cricut like this?

[@weekend-craft]

Thanks so much! You can do multiple colors. Usually you will create multiple screens for this. But there is a few hacks you can use. You may have given me an idea for another video!

@@weekend-craft For those that can't do DTF or the DTF hack, this is a straightforward way to print on 100% cotton!

[@weekend-craft]

@@jenxpdx absolutely. Man do I dream of having a DTF printer one day... but $$$
