The leaves are beginning to change, which means it officially looks like fall here in the Pacific Northwest!

With fall brings with it trips to local farms, pumpkin patches, hayrides, and of course, apple picking. Our local place opened on September 3, and we’ve already planned our first trip!

I always enjoy making homemade applesauce and apple crumble, and we always dehydrate a tone of apples for snacks. Something about cooking with apples just feels right. That fresh baked apple smell wafting through our house isn’t a bad thing, either!

I recently cut back on coffee, so I’m all about the decaffeinated, warm drinks. I have a feeling this fall I’ll drink a lot more warm apple cider than in years past. So many people create adorable coffee bars, but what about an apple cider bar? How cute would that be for fall?!

Use the Apple Cider SVG to create your own drink bar decor with a wooden sign. I like to use Vinyl on Painted Wood when making my signs. It’s a bit quicker and easier than creating a stencil with your Cricut. I’ve done it both ways, so it’s really up to you and the look you’re going for!

If you prefer a warm cup of cider, or even a cold one, use our Apple Cider Season cut file to make yourself a coffee mug or tumbler. I recently tested out a new press to Make Glass Sublimation Tumblers and Mugs if you’re interested in checking it out. Many glass cups can be used for both hot and cold drinks!

Headed to the apple farm with your friends and/or family? Make matching shirts with the Apple Picking Crew SVG and your favorite Heat Transfer Vinyl colors or Siser EasyColor DTV. Of course, if you have a baby or toddler, the Sweetest Apple in the Orchard cut file would be right up their alley!

Enjoy these Apple SVGs. I hope you get a chance to put them to good use this fall season. Let me know how you decide to use them in the comments below!

Get Fall Ready!

Can you believe it’s September already?!

We’ve had some crisp, cooler mornings here in Washington lately, which feel almost fall-like. We had (what I hope is) our final heat wave of the season last week. I’m ready for the cooler temps, changing leaves, and fall festivities! Though if the rain could hold off for a bit more, we’d all appreciate it.

One of my favorite parts of fall is the switch over to cozy hoodies, sweaters, and sweatshirts. There’s also nothing I enjoy more than curling up under a soft blanket on my couch! I made these retro fall designs for my fellow fall-lovers, in hopes that you can create some of your own cozy, fall items!

The Hello Pumpkin or Sweater Weather SVGs is perfect for your new fall t-shirt or sweatshirt (depending where you live)! Use heat transfer vinyl, sublimation printing, or even Siser’s EasyColor DTV to add the decal to the shirt. Haven’t heard of DTV yet? It’s a thin, flexible printable heat transfer vinyl that just requires a regular desktop inkjet printer. Check out my tutorial on How to Use Siser’s DTV!

Use the Let’s Get Cozy SVG to create a new throw pillow or two for your home. Did you know you can use sublimation printing on these pillow covers? They make it easy to swap out seasonal decor. Just add an insert and change the covers whenever you feel like it! Iron on vinyl works for this, too!

This next design is for my PSL lovers! Use the Pumpkin Spice Vibes to make yourself a new fall mug or skinny tumbler. Perfect for those chilly morning walks to the bus stop with little ones! Did you know you can use a convection oven to sublimate a tumbler?

I hope you feel inspired to go create some cozy items of your own! Comment below and let me know what you made!

And just like that… we’re gearing up for fall!

Most kids are back to school (though mine still have a few weeks…we drag out summer as long as possible here in the PNW) and Halloween stuff is in all the shops. While it’s hard to say goodbye to our beautiful summer days, I do love sweaters and soup and all things autumn.

If you’re also ready to get cozy and craft all the fall things, I’ve got you covered!

I designed these fall sublimation designs to get you in the spirit with homemade shirts, mugs, and more. There’s definitely something for everyone!

Fall Sublimation Files in this Bundle

The Hello Pumpkin sublimation design is perfect for creating a shirt for yourself or a loved one. I love cozying up in hoodies in the cooler weather and plan to make one for myself! How cute would this be on a onesie for a little fall baby?

If you don’t have a sublimation printer, but want to get a similar effect, you can use a brand new product called Siser Easy Color DTV! Read more about How to Use Siser Easy Color DTV without a sublimation printer!

Add the Autumn Vibes sublimation design to a ceramic mug for a permanent, dishwasher safe addition to your collection. I don’t know about you, but coffee just tastes better in a fun mug! Check out my Sublimation Cheat Sheets for a handy guide to time and temperature settings for all sorts of blanks.

Planning a fall wedding or bridal shower? Use the Fall in Love design to create one-of-a-kind party favors such as can koozies and glasses!

If you’re looking for more ideas, Cricut makes a wide assortment of sublimation-ready blanks, or check out my Sublimation Blanks and More post!

If sublimation isn’t your thing, you can use Cricut’s print then cut feature to create a t-shirt with printable iron-on. You could also make adorable stickers using printable waterproof vinyl. The possibilities really are endless!

Do you host Friendsgiving? These Friendsgiving SVGs are just what you need!

While many celebrations were on hold over the past year and a half, one thing I’m thankful for currently is the ability to gather with loved ones safely. So many weddings, family gatherings, and holidays were cancelled or rescheduled during much of 2020 and even into 2021!

As most of us navigated these unprecedented times, our friends have been a huge support system. Thankfully, modern technology has allowed us to stay connected in many ways, but there’s nothing like being able to actually see (and hug!) your people. I’m looking forward to continuing our Friendsgiving tradition this year. It’ll likely be smaller than years past, but it’ll be even more special to be together and celebrate!

Use the Happy Friendsgiving SVG to make a sign or even a felt banner to hang in your home. It’s been a long time since many of us have had house guests, so why not add a little extra Friendsgiving decor?!

I know it may not be possible to see all your friends in person this year. Many of us live far away from each other or have other family commitments this time of year. The Friends are the Family We Choose SVG could be used to design a card to mail or even a little holiday gift. Mugs are always a good choice!

The Grateful Hearts Gather Here and Thankful for Friends SVGs would both make perfect home decor signs or even custom napkins. Use iron-on vinyl to personalize cloth napkins to add to your Friendsgiving tablescape!

No matter what you chose to make with these Friendsgiving SVGs, I hope you truly enjoy the time spent together with loved ones this holiday season!

Do you love fall?

I’m a HUGE fan of all things fall. It’s my favorite season. There’s just something about the cooler weather, the changing leaves, and any excuse I can get to cozy up under a blanket with a warm drink!

One of my favorite things to do each fall to pull out all of our autumn decor. I created these fall gnomes SVGs because I thought they’d be perfect for adding fall-inspired touches around any house!

The Fall in Love Gnomes would make an adorable wooden sign for your home. It could also be used as decor for a fall-themed wedding shower or even a house-warming gift!

Use the Pumpkin Kisses Harvest Wishes Gnome SVG to create a pillow cover with iron-on vinyl or Infusible Ink. Just be sure you’re using a polyester pillow cover if you decide to use infusible ink or a sublimation transfer! If you’re curious about sublimation printing, check out my Ultimate Guide to Sublimation Printing.

While you’re cozied up at home, why not design yourself a fleece blanket to stay warm? Our Sweater Weather Gnome cut file is a given for either of those! Don’t forget, you can change the colors to match your own home decor. I like to add touches of pink where I can, but I know others prefer more traditional fall colors!

Don’t forget, Thanksgiving is just around the corner! If you’re keeping it lowkey this year, you could make yourself a shirt or sweatshirt with the Here for the Pie Gnome SVG.

Enjoy these gnome cuties!
