Everyday Crafting: Easy Cricut Faux Leather Bows

Hey y'all! In this video, I'm going to show you how to make easy Cricut faux leather bows.
My favorite faux leather seller (aff link): amzn.to/31VXZKm
Barrette findings (aff link): amzn.to/2NrfHCl
My FAVORITE glue gun (aff link): amzn.to/2ImHUWP
The ONLY glue sticks I use (aff link): amzn.to/2Iid3us
Like I mentioned, I do not support any particular Etsy seller due to varying business ethics, but this is where I purchased the SVG: www.etsy.com/listing/67162401...
I personally use the rotary blade and 'denim' setting on my Cricut Maker for heavy fabrics. For older models, like the Air 2, you can use the regular blade and the 'Felt: Wool Felt' setting.

With the explore air 2 there is a “faux leather (paper thin)” setting it works way better and cuts twice! But if you have a new blade you need to turn the pressure to “less” because it will cut your mat.

I may would try a little bit of E6000, and a clamp for that. A clothes pin would work just fine to clamp it together until the glue sets up.
