DIY SLOGAN SWIMSUITS FOR YOUR ‘I DO CREW’ !
It’s no secret that slogan swimsuits are having a major moment right now but what’s missing are slogan swimsuits specifically for you brides and your bridal party am I right?!
DING! That was the sound of our brains getting an awesome DIY idea and we knew just who to team up with to create our fun, swimwear setting! Because let’s get real, what’s a fun swimwear shoot without oversized inflatables, awesome sunglasses and beautiful beach bags?! Oliver Bonas totally hooked us up!! So here’s how you can create your own bridal slogan swimsuits…
Buuuuuttt… if you can’t make your own do not worry!! The Mrs/ I Do Crew Iron On Letters are now available in our BRAND NEW SHOP!! Click the button below to get yours!
YOU WILL NEED:
Plain swimsuits // A Cricut Explore* // ‘I Do Crew’ template* // ‘Mrs’ template* // Cricut Iron On Material // An iron //
*Please note if you don’t have a Cricut machine then you can grab yourself some Iron on letters instead
STEP 1:
Upload the templates to the Cricut Design Space then size them to the size of your swimsuits. (If you already have your letters you can skip this step and the next one)
STEP 2:
Set your Cricut to Iron on and make sure you tick ‘reverse image’ before you start the cut so that your design doesn’t iron on backwards!
STEP 3:
Iron your swimsuits so that they’re perfectly flat and easy to work with.
STEP 4:
Place your iron on slogan onto the swimsuit and make sure it’s central. Then iron over the template pushing down as you go. You’ll want to iron for a good 30-60 seconds to make sure it transfers perfectly.
STEP 5:
Carefully peel back the transfer paper to reveal your compelted iron on design!
STEP 6:
Grab your floppy hat, an oversized inflatable and hit the beach!!
Ok ok, so that last one wasn’t really a step but surely you need to show off your new swimsuit RIGHT AWAY?! I think the ‘I Do Crew’ suits would be so fab for a bridal party or why not make the ‘Mrs’ swimsuit for a bride to be you know?! It would ace to take on a honeymoon!

How does the swimsuit not melt when ironing on it?
Hi Brenda
You need to place a towel on top of the transfer tape and iron over it, pressing firmly as you go. This avoids any contact with the swimsuit.

How about when it stretches. Will it stretch with the swimsuite?
Hi Sheryl
The vinyl is pretty versatile.

Will this peel off in the swimming pool/sea?
Hi Antonia
The iron on is washable so should be fine in the water.

Where do you buy the swimsuits?
Hi Megan
We’re having trouble sourcing plain swimsuits ourselves at the moment, as these were old. As soon as we find out we will let you know.
