Hacks For Weeding T-shirt Vinyl for your Cricut

I've been working on a little St. Patrick's Day project for my niece.  I thought I'd share one of my favorite tricks to using the Cricut.  How to weed the iron on t-shirt vinyl.  To be honest, I'm way too cheap to buy the weeder.  I know it's only $7.00 but it will just be one more tool that gets folded up in fabric or falls behind my cutting table and gets lost.  Luckily, I have 2 tools already that do exactly the same thing.  First, a plain old pin. That's right.  I use a pin for most of my weeding.  It's sharp and I have hundreds of them.  

The pin is also great to get into really tiny areas like inside of letters. 

 If I'm working on something a bit larger and I want something with a handle, I use my seam ripper.  

So there you have my little hack for weeding my Cricut designs.  

If you love this Pinch Proof Design, it's available here for $.99.  There is also a 8 design lot of St. Patrick's designs as well.

In an effort to be more organized this year, I've been working on some planner pages for different projects.  I'm so tired of going to the store 2-3 times because I forget half the stuff on my list.  Also, making lists on my phone never seems to work out because the battery dies at the store and then I'm stuck trying to remember.

What I love about this design is that it reminds me to look through my supplies and account for what I already have.  Right now I have about 15 packages of elastic because I just keep buying it every time I go to the store just in case.  

I'd love to see your completed planner pages and projects.  #indipatternsprojects
