Wood Wall Art with Cricut Iron On

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

I love collage walls and every time we move (thanks Army!) one of my favorite projects is reconfiguring our photos and art in to our new home. With a piece of scrap wood and my Cricut I can create wood wall art to fill those inevitable gaps in my collage!

I love iron-on, and putting iron-on material on wood has become my newest obsession! Quicker, cleaner and easier than stenciling or vinyl – using iron-on allows me to create inexpensive home decor in just a fraction of the time. {FTC disclaimer: This is a sponsored blog post and contains affiliate links – if you make a purchase I may receive a small commission at no additional cost to you.}

4. Weed image and place on wood block.

5. Use EasyPress to apply iron-on to wood block using the recommended settings chart on cricut.com. They list wood as one of the materials!
