Hey all you mer-maids! Glad you made it to the blog… because I’ve got the absolute PERFECT wedding reception chair idea for you!

Download our free Cricut SVG files at the end of the post and within just a few clicks you’ll have created your own darling decals that can be placed on almost anything.

SUPPLIES:
- Cricut Explore Air
- Adhesive Foil Vinyl, in your choice of color I used Stainless Silver
- Transfer Tape
- Ghost Chairs
- Our free SVG files below!
Import Into Design Space
Download our free SVG files at the end of the post and upload them into Cricut Design Space. Then drag the files to fit the size of the item that you’re going to place the design on.
Cut The Designs
Using a regular mat with your Cricut dial set to “custom” and the custom setting set to “adhesive foil”, press GO and watch the Cricut work it’s magic!
Weed The Design
Using the weeding tool, carefully remove all the non-design areas from the adhesive foil.
Apply Transfer Tape
Carefully apply the transfer tape on top of the design and burnish. Then remove the entire sheet from the cut mat and trim each decal down to size.
Apply To Each Chair
Remove the transfer tape from the backing with the decal sticking to it, and then apply it to your chair. After your event you can easily peel/scrape it off with no damage. Or, you can put these decals onto wood and hang them from regular style chairs!
