Steps:
1.
Pre-wash fabric. Do not use fabric softener.
2. Preheat iron to a setting between 325º and 350º (wool and cotton.) If using a stream iron, remove all water from iron, as moisture will ruin the transfer. Iron fabric if necessary to remove any wrinkles.
3. To iron transfer, place fabric on a hard surface such as a table or counter covered with a smooth, thin towel. Position transfer on fabric, white side down. Iron on transfer with a firm, even, circular motion for one minute.
4. Important: Let paper cool completely, about 2 minutes. Starting at one corner, slowly peel backing paper away from fabric, making sure design has completely transferred. If so, continue to gently peel backing paper away from fabric in a smooth, continuous motion. If design does not adhere to fabric, carefully replace backing paper and repeat steps 3 and 4.
5. Wait 72 hours to wash. Machine wash warm on gentle cycle. Do not use harsh detergents or bleach. Remove promptly and line dry. To iron, turn garment inside out, being careful not to touch design with iron. Do not dry-clean.

PattieWack Tip:
Glamm-out your iron-on transfers with rhinestones, beads and trim around the edges. Not only can you jazz-up your tank tops and shirts, but try it on purses, totes, pillows, and anything fabric.
