vinyl lettering ?

Isalea

Has anyone ever made their own vinyl wall lettering? Anyone have a link to a tutorial? Did you think it was worth the hassle or is it better to just buy it?

I want to make vinyl wall letters that say "You're living proof that dreams come true." Will I need a cricket or something similar? Any thoughts are appreciated! TIA!

It is really easy with a cricut or silhouette (which is what I have) to cut the letters out of vinyl. I can't image doing it by hand, but I suppose it is possible. I wouldn't bother trying without a cutting machine and would just buy them from an etsy seller.

I've been considering investing in a cricut, I think the number of projects I want to do are starting to balance out its price. So where do you get the vinyl, hobby lobby or michaels or someplace similar?

Michaels and Walmart both sell Cricut vinyl, but you can order it more inexpensively online.  I'm sure one of the ladies who has one will chime in on the best place to buy!

I really like expressionsvinyl.com for buying vinyl. They have excellent customer service, a great selection, and incredibly fast shipping.

My DS had to wear a cranial helmet from 10-15 months for plagiocephaly. His helmet was bland white, so we spiced it up with some vinyl that I ordered from here:

They guarantee to be the cheapest.
