HOW I USED MY BACK TO SCHOOL SVG:
I am a devout iron-on chick. I use it on pretty much everything, including wood! So when I first saw these SVG files, I immediately started thinking about what colors of iron-on I would use. BUT THEN I started thinking about the new Cricut Infusible Ink transfer sheets! How fun would these be to make using this rainbow transfer sheet? How about this watercolor sheet? GAAAAHHH!!! I am in love!!
Tote bags are my jam. Can you ever have too many? I think not…especially if you are a teacher! So I created this SVG that could be resized to fit any bag or t-shirt and in any color of the rainbow. The possibilities are endless!
To create the tote bag, all I did was buy a plain bag, cut out my SVG design in black vinyl, and then added it to the bag using my Cricut heat press!
Now, if you don’t want to make a tote bag, you could use this free cut file to create a variety of DIY projects!
If you are looking for some ideas, below are a few of my favorites that would work well with my back-to-school SVG cut file!
- Sleeves for water bottles
- Door Hangers
- Custom Shirts
NOTE: If you use it on smaller items (like a coffee mug), you will need to resize the image.


This SVG would look great on so many items! If you are looking for blank items that you can add this SVG to, then check out some of my favorites below!
