Free Hot Chocolate Bar SVG:
This digital media is for Personal Use Only - You do not have permission to redistribute.
There will be no watermarks on the downloaded version.
Cricut Design Space:
I use Cricut Design Space and the next several steps will be based on that.
If you use Silhouette Studio or a different design software, your steps may be different.
The first thing to do is upload the file into your cutter software.
Size the design to fit your project.
For my wood box, I sized the design to 7.96 x 1.89 inches.
Select Make It, and this will take you to the Mat Preview Page.
I am using Iron-On vinyl so I am going to mirror the design. If you are using regular vinyl you can leave the design as is.
Hit Next and select your material type, I selected Everyday Iron-On.
Roll your material onto a StandardGrip mat, and load the mat into your Cricut machine.
When the start button begins to blink, press to begin the cut.
After the cut is finished, remove the material from the mat and weed the design.
Applying the Iron-On:
Visit the Cricut Heat Guide to find the right settings for your material and base.
For Everyday Iron-On onto wood, the website suggested settings of 300º F for 40 seconds.
Center the design onto the wood box. The sticky back of the liner will help hold it in place.
Then apply the heat as directed.
Let the liner cool to the touch and then you can peel it back.
Adding the Ingredients:
Pour your hot chocolate bar ingredients into the glass jars.
I created a funnel with some rolled-up paper to help me not make a mess. It worked great!
My ingredients consisted of hot chocolate mix, dehydrated mini marshmallows, and crushed candy canes.
This gift looks so cute when all put together. This Hot Chocolate Station will look so cute on any counter inviting others to make their own special treat.
Who will you give this perfect small gift to?
