New Year Craft Ideas Using Heat Transfer Vinyl
HTV is one of the coolest crafting products on the market! It’s the perfect tool for applying custom designs to fabric-based materials. It comes with an adhesive backing that is activated using heat and pressure for a specified period of time.
Though it shows the best results on cotton, polyester, and poly-cotton blends, it can be applied to several types of heat-safe surfaces. Here are a few HTV craft ideas that you can try out to decorate your home this New Year:
The Happy New Year Banner
Looking to get your home ready for the New Year celebrations? We’ve got the perfect project for you! Prepare a festive banner that you can hand in the hallway or the living room. Get a rectangular piece of cloth compatible with the heat transfer vinyl and hem a border through which the string will pass.
Using your favorite design software, create individual stencils for each letter in the phrase ‘Happy New Year’. Don’t forget to adjust the size and dimensions of the design according to the width you want on the cloth.
Load a roll of your favorite TeckWrap Craft heat transfer vinyl into your cutting machine and cut out the letters. You can use different colored HTV films for this craft for a vibrant, celebratory look. We recommend using our best-selling Metallic Chrome heat transfer vinyl. It has a luxurious feel and creates eye-catching designs.
Position the cut vinyl letters on the banner. You can use a dry, household iron or a heat press machine to apply these. We recommend investing in the latter for a crisp, professional look.
Once they have been applied, cut a length of twine or fish wire and thread it through the hem. Leave a bit of extra string on each end so that you can hang it and that’s it! Your custom ‘Happy New Year’ banner is ready!
Happy New Year Tablescape
Planning on hosting a New Year’s party at your place? Don’t forget about the dining table when you’re decorating the house! It’s the perfect way to add a personal touch to the celebration.
For this project, choose a plain table runner in a color that matches the overall theme of your tablescape. You can use any type of design software to make the vinyl decals. Try creating a design using the phrase “Happy New Year!” or “Ready for 2024”.
You can add images of fireworks and confetti to elevate the design. If you want your tablescape to have a sophisticated look, we recommend choosing a black table runner and decorating it with TeckWrap Craft’s Glitter heat transfer vinyl.
To complete the tablescape, you can decorate a set of fabric napkins, table mats, and chair covers to match the runner. We recommend using simple designs such as small-sized decals of fireworks or the number ‘2024’. It’ll give the tablescape an elegant look!
New Year Wood Slice Decoration
For this project, purchase a set of wood slices from your local craft store. If their surface is rough, you may want to use sandpaper to create a smoother canvas for the vinyl. Use a cloth to wipe away dust or debris.
Next, you’ll need to cover the wood slice with a coat of paint. Once the paint is dry, add a coat of clear acrylic sealer over it. Create heat transfer vinyl decals and position them on the wood slice. Cover them with uncoated butcher paper. Use a heat press to apply the design.
You can set these custom wood slice decorations around your home. They can decorate the wall or can be used as coasters, or if your Christmas tree is still up, switch out some of the festive ornaments with these customized wood slices, and you’ll have another stunning New Year’s decoration!
New Year’s Burlap Garden Flag
With this project idea, you’ll be the envy of the entire neighborhood! Purchase a blank burlap flag from a local craft store. You can also make one yourself by cutting burlap fabric into the appropriate shape and size for your flag stand.
You may want to use two layers of burlap fabric for a neat look. Use design software, such as Cricut Design Space, to adjust the dimensions of your decal so that it can fit on the flag perfectly.
You can decorate the flag with stars and greetings to add a touch of glamor to the design. Use a roll of our Chameleon Shimmer heat transfer vinyl in ‘Gold’ for this project.
Celebratory T-Shirts
Are you looking for a craft idea that can be fun for the whole family? We’ve got just the thing! Ring in the new year by decorating a set of plain T-shirts for each member of your family. You can decorate the T-shirts with celebratory greetings, such as ‘Happy New Year!’, or images like clinking glasses and fireworks.
We recommend using our famous Puff Heat Transfer Vinyl for the lettering on this project. It’s available in 32 different colors and creates eye-catching textured designs. You can also use our Glow In The Dark Puff Heat Transfer Vinyl in the colors ‘Yellow’ or ‘Neon Orange.’ It’ll make the perfect outfit for any late-night New Year’s Eve party!
New Year Crafts Using Adhesive Vinyl
Adhesive vinyl is a highly versatile and durable crafting material. It has a pressure-sensitive adhesive that bonds well with hard, smooth, clean, and dry surfaces. It is available in two types: permanent and removable.
As the name suggests, permanent adhesive vinyl is designed for long-term applications. It cannot be peeled off easily once applied. Removable vinyl is used for short-term applications. It can be taken off easily without leaving any sticky residue.
TeckWrap Craft hosts an excellent permanent adhesive vinyl collection. It doesn’t matter what color or pattern you’re looking for – there are numerous options to choose from! Try these adhesive vinyl projects for celebrating this New Year:
Custom Hot Cocoa And Coffee Mugs
Have you ever thought about personalizing your favorite coffee mug using adhesive vinyl? It’s super easy, and the customization options are endless!
You can add celebratory accents, such as images of confetti and fireworks. Make sure to use permanent adhesive vinyl for this project, as it is waterproof and incredibly durable. The mug can be regularly washed, and you won’t have to worry about the design coming off.
Before applying the adhesive vinyl, wipe down the surface of the coffee mug to get rid of any dirt or moisture that can affect the adhesive properties of the material. Take a piece of transfer tape such that it covers the entirety of the vinyl decal. Burnish it using a squeegee.
Press the transfer tape onto the surface of the coffee mug. Once the design has transferred, peel away the tape slowly at an angle, and your custom hot cocoa and coffee mugs are ready!
Party Hats
If you’re hosting a New Year’s Eve party this December, this craft idea is perfect for you! With a few supplies and TeckWrap Craft’s premium-quality adhesive vinyl, you can create the most stunning DIY party hats!
Purchase plain party hats from your local dollar store or make your own using sheets of colored cardstock. You can decorate the hats simply with glitter or sequins, but we recommend using vinyl decals for the ultimate customization options.
To make your own party hat from scratch, print out a template from the internet and cut the cardstock sheet according to the design. Fold the sheet into the shape of a cone. Use a glue gun to attach both sides.
Add a colorful pom pom to the top of the hat. We recommend using the TeckWrap Craft Bubble Free Mirror Chrome adhesive vinyl for this project. It’s available in 10 beautiful colors, and you can easily cut it into any shape or size!
Vinyl-Decorated Party Favor Bags
A get-together is no fun without party favors! And if these are creatively crafted with love, they become an exquisite keepsake. You can use adhesive vinyl to decorate plain paper bags and transform them into custom New Year’s goodie bags!
Add celebratory phrases such as ‘Goodbye 2023, Welcome 2024!’ or “Ready for the New Year!” We recommend using sparkly colors and adding stars, confetti, and fireworks accents to your designs.
Our famous Colorful Pearl adhesive vinyl is the perfect material for this project! It has a stunning glitter effect and is available in 8 different colors. For a sophisticated look, create your designs using classic colors such as black, white, and gold.
New Year's Eve Photo Booth
Getting your home ready for the New Year’s party? This decor project is a must-try! You can use wood or cardboard for this craft. Using a craft knife, cut it into the shape of a rectangle. Mark the space where you want the hole of the photo frame to be.
You can design the frame to resemble a Polaroid picture. Decorate it using adhesive vinyl decals. If you’re looking for design ideas, we recommend painting the frame black and applying decals using our New Glossy adhesive vinyl in the colors ‘Glossy Gold’ or ‘Glossy Silver.’ It’ll look stunning and will also be on theme!
You can create different props for your photo booth and decorate them with adhesive vinyl. This will be a fun activity for your party that will make it memorable for many years to come.
Happy New Year Cake Toppers
Make a creative, personalized cake topper for the New Year’s cake that you have baked with love. You can easily get cake topper blanks from a crafts store in different shapes and sizes.
We recommend decorating the topper with TeckWrap Craft’s Textured Metallic adhesive vinyl. It comes in stunning color options such as Rose Gold and Champagne Gold and ensures that your designs stand out making an impression on all. Your cake will be distinctive with a topper that no one else has.
