Does anyone know how to apply hot fix crystals to fabric ?

Question

I purchased a shirt from a web site < couturemoms.com > . Just a plain tee with crystal lettering . It was 40.00 ! I love the top , it seems very well made . I was just wondering if there is a way to apply these crystals yourself and how you would keep them even and look professional . Any help or links would be wonderful ! :)

Answer 1

There is a way to do it yourself.  The brand of crystals I&#039;ve seen most often is Swarovski--their hot fix ones can be applied with the heat from a regular iron or with a special tool made just for that purpose.  I&#039;ve seen them sold at quilt shops and shows, but a regular craft place like JoAnn or Michaels would probably have them.

As far as keeping them even,  you can buy hot fix stencils with openings for the crystals that will do the spacing for you.
