Tumbler – My top choice is to use stainless still tumblers. *this article contains affiliate links for your convenience, see full disclosures here Materials for Rhinestone Tumblers I first iron on HTV to permanent vinyl and then I iron on the rhinestones to the HTV/permanent assembly.īefore we get started, I have a few recommendations on materials in case you don’t have everything already or if this helps in using what you have already. But then I realized it wasn’t! This time, I bedazzled my tumbler the same way I bedazzle my dress. So I did the next best thing which was use what I already had!īack in the day, that is my pageant days, I used to do quite a bit of bedazzling to my dresses but that was a different type of project altogether. The only problem was the materials they used cost a fortune and I had half the supplies already. Then, I found a tutorial on Rhinestone World about bedazzling a tumbler 3500 rhinestones at a time and I was fascinated. I’m obsessed with operational efficiency especially around the household so I was bothered by the fact I was still placing rhinestones by hand. Yeah, one of those one-off things I’m paranoid about. Glitter tends to get everywhere and I have small kids and I’m constantly paranoid they’re going to get some small piece of glitter in their eyes and it’s going to scratch their cornea. I mostly wanted something sparkly and I’m not a huge fan of glitter.

This was my original work where I attempted to glue on the rhinestones with glue and my template: But since my initial post on this project, I’ve worked on my bedazzling skills and have gotten better. This was very much a trial project for me.

I felt the need to do some bedazzling the other day and decided to design my own rhinestone templates for use with my Cricut.
