Monogrammed Hostess Gift For the Baker

Recently I attended a bridal shower for a dear friend and put together a baking themed gift for her. I used glitter iron on and my Cricut machine to add a personal touch to an oven mit with a monogram. This monogrammed oven mit filled with baking utensils is the perfect gift for a bridal shower or housewarming gift!

When I do not have time to make a homemade gift, I like to add a personal touch to something store bought or assemble several items into a gift basket. I also like to give practical gifts when possible.

For this gift, I went with a baker's theme and started with an oven mit to hold the smaller items. I selected small measuring spoons, large stirring spoons, a menu planner, cute kitchen towel, and fancy handmade soap.

Supplies for monogram oven mit:

Cricut Cutting Machine

Strong Grip Cutting Mat

Glitter Iron On Vinyl

Oven Mitt

Iron

To make the glittery monogram, open up the Cricut Design space and select a font for the letter. You can also choose from a variety of "Monograms" if you search in the images. I kept it simple with a capital "K" in a cursive font. 

Make sure you put the shiny side of the vinyl face down on the mat and mirror your image since it is an iron on. (otherwise it will be backwards) Once the cut is complete, weed the excess vinyl from your design and place the liner face down on the mit. Apply firm pressure with the iron for about 30 seconds. Repeat until the glitter vinyl is stuck to the mit and the liner peels away.
