As someone who loves crafting with paper, cardstock, vinyl, and faux leather, I need a good paper cutter. The one I had been using was just not cutting it. Seriously, it kept ripping my paper. So, I started using a rotary blade. Well, that was working, but the paper would sometimes slip and the fact that I could only cut aabout 5 sheets at a time made some projects take longer than I wanted. So, I went on a search for a guillotine paper cutter. Most of the ones I found were over $30 and had a maximum sheet count of 12. However, a I continued to browse, I found this ECraft Guillotine Paper Cutter for $25.99 and, as a Prime member, I was offered Same-Day delivery. It was after 1 pm, at the time, but it said it would be delivered between 5 pm and 10 pm. I was intrigued. Upon further reading, I found that, not only was it cheaper than those that only cut up to 12 sheets, it also cut up to 15 sheets. Ok, this had me really interested, now. So, like I always do, I head to the reviews section. It had 4.5 stars. Ok, that's good. After reading, some reviews stated that it didn't cut up to 15 sheets, but "more like 8," as one said. Someone complained about it not having a blade lock. Another claimed that it slid around while cutting, but they added some rubber feet and it helped. For the most part, the reviews were good, so I decided to go ahead and buy the cutter.

Do you want to make your own personalized t-shirts, tote bags, or other fabric projects? If so, you might want to try using heat transfer vinyl, also known as iron-on vinyl. Heat transfer vinyl is a special type of vinyl that can be cut with a cutting machine, such as a Cricut, Silhouette, Loklik, etc., and then, transferred to fabric using heat. It is a fun and easy way to create custom designs that last for a long time. In this blog post, I will show you how to use heat transfer vinyl in five simple steps. A video is available at the end of this post.

If you've ever bought a graphic tee, you know that the design is bound to crack and, maybe, even fade. This is inevitable with any t-shirt design. Whether it be a vinyl design or screen print, you will eventually start to see cracks in the design. If you're like me, you want the design to stay as fresh and crisp as long as possible. If you want to know how I keep my t-shirts looking like new for as long as possible, keep reading.
