Step by Step Instructions
1) Open Design Space
2) Make a new project/canvas
3) Insert your image or make a text box and arrange your text
4) Once you have the image/text how you want it, size the image appropriate for your sign size - IF YOUR TEXT IS CURSIVE OR SCRIPT LIKE MINE, MAKE SURE YOU UNWELD THE TEXT, MOVE IT SO THE LETTERS TOUCH AND RE-WELD!
5) Once you have it sized how you want, click MAKE IT
6) Select your cut settings - for the 651, I used Vinyl
7) Put your vinyl onto the mat - I used the light grip blue mat
8) Once the film is on your mat, load the mat into your Cricut using the flashing arrow buttons
9) Once loaded, press the flashing Cricut button to cut!
10) Once your vinyl is cut, use your weeding tool to “weed out” or remove the excess around the letters you want to stick onto the mirror - don’t forget the middles of the letters!
11) Once weeded, apply your transfer tape - stick the tape onto your vinyl
12) Once the transfer tape is on your vinyl, peel the transfer tape up - your vinyl should come with it - you may need to get it started and help it out
13) Using the transfer tape as the carrier sheet, stick your vinyl onto your mirror
14) Using your scraper, press and smooth out the vinyl (the tape is still on the vinyl at this point)
15) Peel off the transfer tape - your vinyl will be sticking to the mirror
16) You’re done! Enjoy!

Love your videos! You’re so good at teaching to new beginners, thank you from Kansas City! 🎨
Lauren, will you be making a video on what you liked from the maker, what tools does it come with, etc.? Thanks ❤
Thank you so much for posting this very detailed tutorial! You are an excellent teacher and this video has helped me so much!
Yay!!!
Thank you so much for this vid. I'm awaiting shipment on my Cricut and my first project is vinyl wording on a mirror for my stepdaughters wedding.

This is beautiful, trying this fir my granddaughter 1st birthday...Thanks for sharing
I found your tutorial really helpful. Thank you!
What’s the link to the free font bundles?
What if you printed something with the mirror image on; is it salvageable by using transfer tape?
Thank you so much for sharing! Congratulations on your engagement! I just got engaged this year as well, so I am planning to make a Welcome sign for my wedding. Unrelated, but do you know which easel (sizing, etc.) to hold a mirror? Thank you.
What exact Cricut machine do you have? I’m simply wanting one to make script like you use it for. Thank you, great channel!
Please tell me what vinyl you used? I have only used white with a white paper back and your paper back is blue! I would love to purchase some
Thank you for the video. To clean the mirror after can I use windex around the decal?
Thank you
What as the name of the font again please. And, thanks, I enjoyed your video.

I wish I was able to have a cricket
Lauren - was that the clear transfer tape, or? Great video!
Do I need to change the cutter for the air 2? Also do I have to set the dial for air 2 to vinyl?
❤️❤️❤️
How did you like the cricut maker from your explore?
Hi, does it matter which side of the transfer tape you use?
Can you use HTV vinyl?
Not on a mirror no - HTV is iron on
Also, I went to auntie T's website and didn't see the transfer tape for sale, didn't you say she sent it to you? I'd like o know where to get it, the stuff I have isn't very sticky. Thanks

Hi Lauren, I have a question about your transfer tape.
Is your tape the paper quality or the plastic transfer tape.
I use the removable vinyl a lot and the tape I use is the plastic tape not by cricut and the vinyl sticks to it. Should I use the paper transfer tape for Oracle 631
I love this masking tape transfer tape - it is very paper like! I’ve always had luck with it using oracle 631 and 651!
Thanks Lauren absolutely love your video. I have my wedding on Saturday and a few ppl have COVID. So I need to remove the vinyl and re do it. How do I take the vinyl off without damaging the mirror
@@cassiepartridge5036 oh girl I feel you on this!!! I would gently peel up a corner and peel away - if it hasn’t been stuck that long you should be ok! You may need some soap and water if any residue is left behind good luck babe
I watched your video on those plastic target cups and now I can't find it. Can you tell me what the title of the video is? Thank you!
