Do you have a friend that’s always there for you when you need her, or a gal pal that might need a little pick-me-up this Valentine’s Day? Why not show her a little love and surprise her with this cute Galentine’s Day gift idea!
All you need to whip this gift together is an insulated bottle, our free printable Valentine’s Day tags and about 15 minutes to cut and apply some vinyl that you probably already have on hand. Easy peasy, affordable, and so cute! Get the quick “how to” below.
What You’ll Need:
- An insulated water bottle (we got this one from Amazon prime and it was delivered the very next day)
- These free printable Valentine’s Day tags (See below for instructions to download)
- This project in Cricut Design Space
- A Cricut cutting machine (I used the Cricut Explore Air 2)
- White Premium Vinyl (permanent)
- Weeding Tool
- Transfer Tape
To begin, open this project in Cricut Design Space.
Next, measure your bottle and determine how wide you’d like your decal to be. Enter your desired width into the size box at the top of the page, making sure that the lock icon is toggled on. The height will adjust proportionately. If you’re using the same bottle that we did, just for your reference we chose for our decal to be 2.25” wide.
Click “Make It” and follow the prompts to cut the project. Use a weeding tool to weed away the negative vinyl, then use transfer tape to apply the vinyl to the cup. Be sure to rub the vinyl well all over so that it forms a good adhesion to the bottle.
Once your bottle is done, click here to sign up for the free printable tags. Just enter your email address to get access to the printable library, then download these free printable Valentine’s Day tags from the “First Friday Freebies” tab.
Signing up for freebies will earn you a free printable on the first Friday of every month, delivered right to your inbox, and it will also grant you access to all of the free printables that are already in the library!
After you’ve downloaded the tags, just print them off, tie one onto your bottle, and give to your Galentine and watch the smile that it brings to her face. Super cool. :)
The permanent vinyl will stay in place for hand washing, but is not suitable for the dishwasher.
