My SAME thoughts! I'm a beginner and been on the fence about using vinyl and making a possible mistake bc of the price but now YAHOO I can practice and if I make a mistake "OH WELL- it's only $1" 👍🏼👍🏼
YESSSSS IT WORKS...too well! I am a 1st grade teacher and used it to put my students names on their desks....I THOUGHT it would be EASY to get off the desks...BOY WAS I WRONG! It took a LOT to get them OFF! They also have a BLUE ONE! It works MUCH BETTER than I thought it would! I have the Air 2 and I cut mine on the Paper - setting.
I'm just not coming on the the cricut scene and found this video. This is awesome!! I have two kids and now I can make all kinds of things for their school books and notebooks, name stickers etc and not free bad when they peel them off or pick at them all the time!!!
I bought about 25 rolls in different colors and patterns. I also purchased a similar product, used to decorate lockers. Do not cut on regular vinyl setting. Washi is a good choice. When I first bought this stuff and cut on the vinyl setting, the cut went right through to the mat. The product has held up great though- a year and a half and it has not moved!
You are the first person I've seen doing this. While I was looking at your video new ideals just start popping into my head. Thanks so much for posting this.
Awesome idea...this give me an option to use this paper for practice since I'm new to the cricut and how to use it...thx for sharing this makes me feel a bit confident on trying out my cricut finally :)
Yes it is a awesome idea. I've had my Cricut 5 days. I'm definitely going searching for this. I used a file folder today just to do a image and it came out great.
I didn't even know dollar tree had vinyl. Why are some people's dollar trees a goldmine for good stuff and mine isn't? I'm in Orlando too so maybe I just need to go to the other ones around town bc there are plenty of dollar trees around here.
I lived in Orlando and the dollar tree stores are the worst there. Since my move to Sarasota the dollar tree stores are a little more like the ones up north. The best one in Orlando is the one on Turkey Lake road by the Walmart.
Did you know you can order on line for the Dollar Tree? One issue is you have to order in quantity. But if you and a friend both need something you can split it. They'll delivery it to your store to hold for you.
I'm going to Dollar tree as soon as they open. My cricut is being shipped now and I'm too excited. I'm going to make things with my grandchildren. With Christmas around the corner, I have lots to learn and I won't feel bad if it makes me waste while learning. I didn't think of Dollar Tree until I started learning all sorts of new crafts on UA-cam. Now, thanks to your wonderful videos, I'm learning, saving money, and going completely off my diet. I discovered my favorite candy. Russell Stover marshmallow caramel chocolates at Dollar tree. Hmm, maybe I just need to take someone with me for intervention!
I use magic cover (the large rolls from Walmart are under $3) & I cut it on the Washi Sheet setting on my Cricut to make stencils all the time. I use contact paper as a transfer sheet & it's so affordable for stencils to use on my wood signs.
Thanks! That's an awesome idea. I can't afford a cutter yet but my library's maker space has a free vinyl cutter. So I'll have to check that out soon. It would be a great way to make designs to say whatever you want.
@@boopeep9670 for me it has released really easy. I just slowly peel it off. If you're having problems though a tip may be to apply heat with a hairdryer, that may work.
Carly Kymer Figgins thanks for the tip. I don't have an electric cutter but I was thinking about maybe using it with my big shot die cutter. I'm new to using vinyl. Always looking for new ways to use my tools and supplies especially if I can save money along the way :) Thanks!
I did buy this and used it as well. I also have used it as a stencil for signs. It works just about as well as other brands out there. Thank you for sharing.
True. You could do holiday themes as well. Plus you're more likely to get your pan back if you include your phone number and possibly a death threat or two. Just for your favorite pan though.
I haven’t seen those vinyl at my dollar trees. I’m going to have to make multiple trips to different locations. Thank you for the demonstration!! I’m hopeful to find it and create cute stencils :D
I think this would probably work for a temporary template/stencil. I am trying to frost the glasses of my kitchen cabinets so can peel it back off leaving the design as being clear.
I received a Cricut for Christmas from my cat. LOL, Your video is so easy to follow along. I am a retired teacher and I just love the way you teach. Thank you so much.
CrystalAnn Crystal, try also in wedding depts like in Walmart. They always have white, silver and gold. Ppl use it to decorate a lot of items for weddings. (Also try the paper depts/stores for parties and baby showers.) Items are not always where you might expect too. I once went to get chocolate syrup and it wasn't with the ice cream or milk. Manager told me they shelve it with the ketchup.? Oh, of course, everyone puts chocolate syrup on their hamburgers. Good luck. Hope you find what you want.
@@grandmalovesmebest HAHAHA feel you there, the weirdest thing i've seen in a store, laxatives with the paper plates and cups.... it'd have been funny if it was with the cleaning supplies, but the picnic stuff?? they've since changed it to pharmacy where its with the AD meds lol
I have used these on my classroom walls. Using my Silhouette Cameo 3 I have to change the force for regular vinyl from 10 to a 5 or it cut the backing.
Kelly Towle hi! I was thinking of using these for bulletin board covers to to “create” bulletins because I don’t have enough in my room (only 1 inside the classroom and one outside) so I was hoping these would stick without ruining the wall. Was this your experience?
Thanks for doing this review. I use this for laser engraving masking, MUCH cheaper option than other vinyl masking. I only use the masking to prevent smoke staining so a dollar is the perfect cost!
I made my childrens "First Day of School" boards using this and some black foam board also from the dollar tree. They turned out really cute. Only issue with the end result is using a dark board made the color less vibrant.
thanks for the video, i bought some of these but i haven't used them yet and i too was wondering how good they are. because my dollar tree sells these and con-tact paper brand just in smaller amounts and i was curious about the magic covers. so great job, thanks for the info. i found a awesome blue at my dollar tree so keep your eye out for that color, i also found green and the orange but couldn't find the hot pink and i think they carry black and white but they get nabbed up fast..thanks again.....hey just a little FYI... i used to work for dollar tree as an assistant manager. and the way it works is most dollar tree carry roughly the same items, but each dollar tree will have certain special items that are unique to that specific dollar tree that you will not likely find at any other dollar tree unless you search like 10 or more different stores. so you pretty much hit the nail on the head. searching other stores is a great way to find things you cant find at any other dollar tree. also we sold things seasonally and some things we received only one time and never again and other things we would get only once every 2 or 3 years. ive had to wait 2 sometimes 3 years for an item i really wanted to pop back up. so if you find something really unique and cool i would recommend buying them up or at least a good quantity because you never know when you will see them again. sometimes its a one time thing and it will take up to 5 years or more for it to come back. i know its really weird to run a store that way but its true. hope this helps ya.
I recently snagged some glitter adhesive vinyl sheets from dollar tree. They had them in a 3 pack of 3 colors. Found 2 different packs with 3 different colors in each. Haven’t seen these yet. I’ll have to look for them. They also had printed magnet sheets that were advertised as locker wallpaper or something like that. Great video
I double checked my sheets and they are not made of vinyl but they are glitter adhesive paper sheets. Sorry, I was confused but they are still very cool to find in a dollar tree. Looked again for more of them and can’t find them in my store but a store worker stocking shelves told me they don’t get to pick their stock, it is shipped randomly from the warehouse. However they do still have them on their dollar tree website and come in 6 different packs of colors. They may get them at anytime. If you haven’t found them yet just keep checking or order in bulk online. They are by JOT and I found them in with the scrapbooking stickers. The magnet sheets I found during the back to school stock in with school supplies. Hope this helps and sorry for my confusion of vinyl vs. paper. I know there’s a huge difference.
I got one of these with woodgrain design to cover a hole in my bedroom wall since it matches the texture on the paneling. It's a weak wall and an office chair punched through. Its difficult to un-peal the adhesive film. I may just spray some glue on the wall and stick it over it. It might be a bit thicker that way at least.
Ughh! Finally...omg! Searched & searched for this info but everything described using contact paper as transfer tape not as a substitute for vinyl! Thank you for this!!
Perfect video, it explains the material, shows us how to remove the transfer and apply the vinyl. As a beginner and just setting my Cricut up this is exactly what I was looking for, I tried my 1st cut and I think it cut correctly but I dont have any transfer paper/tape which I didnt know I needed so I'm not sure if that cut is no good or I can save it by just getting some transfer paper. Either way this video showed me some things I needed to know so thank you very much.
I used this vinyl to decorate plastic folders in my Kindergarten School Supplies video. I just cut it into shapes with scissors and stuck them down. It worked great!
hi crystal sorry my last comment may have been not 100% accurate..the dollar tree vinly is 3mil thick but thats measuring with the adhesive on it..the oracal 651 is 2.5mil not including the adhesive film..so they are proabably both about the same thickness....:) either way the dollar tree stuff is a goode value in your tool box and if you goof up who cares its cheap enough...:) i made my friend a bunch of dog foot prints using the dollar tree vinyl and she put them all over her fridge :)
Omg! I just found your channel and I’m thrilled to see this video! I’m a beginner with Cricut and have already ruined some expensive vinyl, so I’m grabbing some of this today!
My cousin uses regular contact paper from the .99 cents store. They have solid colors and prints. Another friend uses vinyl you buy off the bolt from the fabric store and makes earrings and such using the Cricut .
I had the first cricut that ever came out and sold it years ago. Been thinking about getting another one and I'm amazed at how different they are now! This video is giving me cricut fever though! I'm learning so much! Thanks!
i bought several rolls months ago with the same intent...I just never got around to trying them out! I'm glad I saw this and that it works the way I thought it would! definitely worth the $1 per roll compared to other vinyl for sale! thanks for making this video! I need to do something fun with 'em!
I'mthinking of purchasing the Circut Maker to place Iron On Transfers on my face masks, t-shirts and to make my greeting cards I'm glad I saw your video. I'll check out Dollar Tree for that vinyl! Looks great!
Thanks so-much, I’m trying to get brave and use my Crichton . Now I won’t be wasting the high dollar materials. I’m fixing yo check and see if you have any more videos about using a circuit as I am just learning how to use mine. I have had it since November and I a.m Very intimidated by it,
Wow that is amazing! I love your idea of using it for stencils! Would you ever consider doing a video testing it out as a stencil? What other things would you use removable vinyl for?
Thank you so much and yes I will do a video on this. I would also use it for window cling as long as it was temporary and it could be used for stickers on cards, scrapbooking so many ideas
love this . I have been checking out sites as my daughter just purchased a cricut and we are going to have craft night this will be great for practice and it will certainly save the good stuff for Good projects . So glad I found you .
when I seen this video I ran to dollar tree. I try setting it to VINYL, it was cutting thru but when I use WASHI TAPE setting its working sooo perfect... Thanks for the video. I wish it was permanent tho!!!!
Thanks so much for this video. I've looked on Amazon anf found lots of adhesive vinyl for very reasonable prices. We don't have DollarTree over here in the UK but we do have Pound Shops. So, it may be worth me having a look in them but I doubt they will have any. Plenty online.
I wrote this because my first comment had disappeared but I see it further down! So, sorry for the duplication. I got the price wrong for the pack of vinyl sheets! They are £19.99. Twice as much but still good value.
I used this for a Hot Mess Canvas. I had to cut multiple stencils. I use a cricut... I cut on the vinyl setting. It cut well! A little bit of an issue taking it off the mat.. Lots of cleaning off the backing paper. Beautiful to weed! Easy to attach to transfer paper... The only issue I had was it did not want to adhere to the canvas very well. I made an example and it adhered great. So I cut all the stencils the day before the class... I do not if it was because it stuck so well to the transfer paper or what?
Is this similar to 631? I want to make a removable decal for my daughters dorm room bathroom wall and this is the perfect color for the peach in the design.
Just wanted to point out that the thickness doesn't actually have anything to do with being permanent or not. In fact, 751 (which is often used for marine vinyl) is thinner and has a longer outdoor durability rating than 651 (permanent vinyl). In fact, they both have the same exact adhesive! By being thinner it actually lasts longer. The less of the vinyl that is raised off the surface the easier it is to not catch and lift. It also doesn't fade as easy (which has nothing to do with the thickness, just mentioning the differences). I would imagine that the dollar store vinyl being thin is actually an asset to it lasting longer. Although, since it is meant for text books and to be removed I'd imagine the adhesive is not meant to be "permanent". Thank you for this video, though! I loved it and picked up some tonight for my kids to play with without secretly wishing they wouldn't use my vinyl, haha! Great video!
Could you please do a video on the same exact vinyl to see if it will work just as well as a stencil? I’m thinking about purchasing this for my cricket to make stencils but I want to make sure it’s going to stick down to the wood well so the paint won’t bleed underneath or through the vinyl thank you
Awesome! I've seen them at my local DT, of course had no idea they would go in my cricut lol . I'm new to my cricut maker still learning. Your videos are awesome. Ty!
I got the exact same colors a while back and tried it. It works rather well. I use that or contact paper for temporary things, opposed to using my Oracle 351/651.
I want to use this vinyl and my cricut the make a decal for the outside of my Chromebook. I would just use my cricut brand vinyl but dollar tree has some really cute patterns!
i love this stuff. i have tried using it on nearly everything, lol. i am getting ready to launch my website. itll have tid bits of projects ive tried, products, and of course items made to sell. ;) im so excited. thanks for sharing your vids. theyre great inspiration and really helped give me a lil push to finally do what i love most. being creative! have a blessed day! xoxoxo
Have you tried Dollar tree Vinyl?
This is great for a beginner like myself. I won't feel so bad with messing up $1 vinyl. Thank you!
You are so welcome and I agree great practice material I seen where others are putting it on washi tape settings to cut
Exactly!
My SAME thoughts! I'm a beginner and been on the fence about using vinyl and making a possible mistake bc of the price but now YAHOO I can practice and if I make a mistake "OH WELL- it's only $1" 👍🏼👍🏼
Exactly! Mine is in the mail on the way and I was so nervous about wasting!
Can you tell me what you typed up to find it,because I typed up magic cover and it doesn't come up
YESSSSS IT WORKS...too well! I am a 1st grade teacher and used it to put my students names on their desks....I THOUGHT it would be EASY to get off the desks...BOY WAS I WRONG! It took a LOT to get them OFF! They also have a BLUE ONE! It works MUCH BETTER than I thought it would! I have the Air 2 and I cut mine on the Paper - setting.
Did you try using a blow dryer on high heat setting or a heat gun ? either of the two should have removed it easily.
You should have used printable vinyl instead of permanent
A good option possibly for the epoxied tumblers since they would be sealed in place
I'm just not coming on the the cricut scene and found this video. This is awesome!! I have two kids and now I can make all kinds of things for their school books and notebooks, name stickers etc and not free bad when they peel them off or pick at them all the time!!!

It is in the school supply section. It is vinyl book covers. 4ft long!
Mine stinks too Kimberly
Go to their website and you can order from there

did you use regular transfer tape or contact paper? I have found that transfer tape id to sticky for some of the projects I do.
@@Debb05680 I used contact paper. This book cover vinal is very thin. 😊
I used the hot pink to lable my craft bins! It was fun to use.
These rolls are pretty cool.... I use them for stencils, like when I want to add flames to my cups instead of using the 631 vinyl.... dg
Great video. Perfect for practicing your cutting and weeding and figuring out how fast you can cut a complex shape without scrapping expensive vinyl.
They would work great on resin cups. A lot cheaper than regular vinyl and less bulky! Thanks for your vodeo! Very helpful and interesting!
With it being removable, it can be used for dishes you take to church or potlucks.
yes great Idea
michelle gatlin smart
True. You could do holiday themes as well.
Plus you're more likely to get your pan back if you include your phone number and possibly a death threat or two. Just for your favorite pan though.
Now that's a very smart idea!
@@Nirrrina 😂😂😂😂😂
I haven’t seen those vinyl at my dollar trees. I’m going to have to make multiple trips to different locations. Thank you for the demonstration!! I’m hopeful to find it and create cute stencils :D
I have discovered they are only available during school supplies season so from July - September
I bought these like 6 years ago when I first bought my cricut. I made my daughter some cool stuff for her dorm! Great video.
I think this would probably work for a temporary template/stencil. I am trying to frost the glasses of my kitchen cabinets so can peel it back off leaving the design as being clear.
Perfect for making pendants. Just cover in resin and it’s perm
kmm thank you I will try !
Im a beginner I just got my Cricut Maker 3 days ago what is resin?
Najassta Slays try doing resin you will like it
I received a Cricut for Christmas from my cat. LOL, Your video is so easy to follow along. I am a retired teacher and I just love the way you teach. Thank you so much.
Saw this in my Family Dollar in Gold and I think silver or another color and thought of buying it for the Cricut. It was for like $2.50 I think 😀😀
oh my goodness I will have to go look

But you can use the Contact paper from the .99 cents store as well.And they have solids and printed designs.

Omg I got some blue & pink during back to school and thought same thing even if it was practice cuts
great idea
Awesome! I just saw this stuff at my dollar store the other day and wondered about it. Thank you so much. Such good info.
Thank you and your welcome
It would be good for projects like cups and things with a epoxy coat

Jessica Cockerell great ideas! 😄
love this . I have been checking out sites as my daughter just purchased a cricut and we are going to have craft night this will be great for practice and it will certainly save the good stuff for Good projects . So glad I found you .
when I seen this video I ran to dollar tree. I try setting it to VINYL, it was cutting thru but when I use WASHI TAPE setting its working sooo perfect... Thanks for the video. I wish it was permanent tho!!!!
Thanks so much for this video. I've looked on Amazon anf found lots of adhesive vinyl for very reasonable prices. We don't have DollarTree over here in the UK but we do have Pound Shops. So, it may be worth me having a look in them but I doubt they will have any. Plenty online.
I wrote this because my first comment had disappeared but I see it further down! So, sorry for the duplication. I got the price wrong for the pack of vinyl sheets! They are £19.99. Twice as much but still good value.
@@lunasmum6869 I wonder if you can order from their site. Just a thought😊
They have a blue color as well. I bought them but had not used yet because of my computer deciding to take a time out.
awww come on computer no time out!! lol thank you fo the info
There are many different colors and patterns.
l bought glitter sheets at the dollar tree.. I will try them here soon
I've been using for years. Only in those 3 colors. Thanks for sharing
You are so welcome I cant believe I just noticed it I have been missing out :)
I used this for a Hot Mess Canvas. I had to cut multiple stencils. I use a cricut... I cut on the vinyl setting. It cut well! A little bit of an issue taking it off the mat.. Lots of cleaning off the backing paper. Beautiful to weed! Easy to attach to transfer paper... The only issue I had was it did not want to adhere to the canvas very well. I made an example and it adhered great. So I cut all the stencils the day before the class... I do not if it was because it stuck so well to the transfer paper or what?
I love this! I feel so thick for not knowing you can use contact paper to pull off vinyl🙃. I'm going tomorrow to my DT to see if they have any vinyl
Amazing, thank you! I love these types of videos with tips and tricks.
Have you ever tried to get that stuff off of your books at the end of the year that stuff sticks good. Lol
Great tips i'm getting a Cricut as a gift from my son, so excited.
Thank you and thank is awesome way to go mom
I love mine. I have the Air 2❤
Great to know! I'm a beginner and will definitely use this idea to practice. Thanks
Is this similar to 631? I want to make a removable decal for my daughters dorm room bathroom wall and this is the perfect color for the peach in the design.
yes its is and that would be awesome
I use this from dollar store to practice and make sure my setting and picture are the right size instead of wasting my good iron on
I have not got my Cricut yet. I hope my DT has this vinyl. Great for learning.
Just wanted to point out that the thickness doesn't actually have anything to do with being permanent or not. In fact, 751 (which is often used for marine vinyl) is thinner and has a longer outdoor durability rating than 651 (permanent vinyl). In fact, they both have the same exact adhesive! By being thinner it actually lasts longer. The less of the vinyl that is raised off the surface the easier it is to not catch and lift. It also doesn't fade as easy (which has nothing to do with the thickness, just mentioning the differences). I would imagine that the dollar store vinyl being thin is actually an asset to it lasting longer. Although, since it is meant for text books and to be removed I'd imagine the adhesive is not meant to be "permanent".
Thank you for this video, though! I loved it and picked up some tonight for my kids to play with without secretly wishing they wouldn't use my vinyl, haha! Great video!
Awesome!!! Gotta go find some of that vinyl at Dollar Tree!! Thank you!!!
I wish I had a cricut 😭 I'd def. Be buying these vinyl.
Tima Flowers Draw and cut by hand?
I know this is an older video, but it is still relevant; thanks for the info! You do a great job of explaining!!
You are awesome Crystal! Always looking for ways tu explains our knowledge and save some money!
awww Thank you so much. I really enjoy it fills my heart and you guys make it so worth it. The best subscribers ever!
Its crazy how you can weave in the air!!! You are a true pro!
awww thank you so much
I use washi tape setting
Thank you for sharing this I'm going to pin this to the top of the feed for others
Jessica Cockerell maybe I should try that setting cause I just could not get this to cut right on my silhouette
I cut this on my large vinyl cutter and it cuts ok..its extremely thin and hard to work with but it has its uses....
mom of boys washi tape ? Ummm
Could you please do a video on the same exact vinyl to see if it will work just as well as a stencil? I’m thinking about purchasing this for my cricket to make stencils but I want to make sure it’s going to stick down to the wood well so the paint won’t bleed underneath or through the vinyl thank you
Never would have thought about that!
Awesome! I've seen them at my local DT, of course had no idea they would go in my cricut lol . I'm new to my cricut maker still learning. Your videos are awesome. Ty!
Thank you I almost passed them up and decided to stop and look it over :)
Crystal is the best if you are new to the cricut maker family. I've learned so much from her!
Crystal is the best if you are just getting started on the cricut maker
When I used this I found that it was much thinner than other vinyl . I would like to know it would hold up long term.
I decorate my mirrors in the bathrooms
Love this. Such an inexpensive way to do vinyl projects with kiddos too!
i used it on ornaments...works awesome!!!
and the have blue and purple also... :)
I got the exact same colors a while back and tried it. It works rather well. I use that or contact paper for temporary things, opposed to using my Oracle 351/651.
I left the vinyl on the scrapper tool so we can see how long it last I seen alot of comments of people using it for test cuts as well
Cool. Looking forward to an update.
I used this stuff on my car! It worked great to make cute designs and peel off later
Im so so glad you did this im new to it so if i mess up ..its not costing me and arm and leg ...thank you
Is that the same as the shelving liners? It's contact paper right?
Yes it is :)
Crystal I have these in black but it’s more like chalkboard type
Ill have to check that out :)
I also use contact paper for practice cut to see how it weeds
super smart
I'm in Fayetteville, glad to see a fellow Arkansan on UA-cam!
Go Pig sooooie :)
Go Arkansas!!!
I bought about 10 rolls, but haven't tried yet. Thank you so much for this!!!!!!
You always think of the coolest things, Crystal. Thank you!
awww thank you so much and your welcome
Great video, thank you. Do you think this paper could be used on tiled floor as a covering?
Awesome!!!! Hope that I can find it at my DT.
Thank you and I hope you can too
I have been using this for a long time. It is not the same as vinyl, but is still a nice replacement.
I want to use this vinyl and my cricut the make a decal for the outside of my Chromebook. I would just use my cricut brand vinyl but dollar tree has some really cute patterns!
Nice...., I was actually thinking of a way to make my own stencils to use with some glass etching projects!! Thanks for sharing!!! 😍
Darn! I just left the dollar tree and didn't give these a second look. I will look twice next go around. Thanks for the idea.
Bought some a while back, but have not tried them yet. Thanks for the video!
You are so welcome
I've been wondering about those I bought them and then forgot to check to see if anybody else had use these and I'm glad that you are doing this
I have made butterflies and they work great. Put in my bathroom.
