Creating personalised clothing is a doddle when you've got your Cricut Machine and EasyPress to hand. Cricut's SportFlex vinyl is ideal for adding your own stamp on gym clothes, as it's been specially designed to stretch with you and your clothes, and best of all there are over 30 different colours to choose from!

Customised clothing also makes a great gift, especially for the gym bunnies in your life! Any name or design can be added and it couldn't be simpler with our step-by-step tutorial.

How to Make a Personalised Gym Bottle: Step 4
Select the name and click on ‘Ungroup’ from the ‘Actions’ menu at the bottom of the screen. This will enable each of the letters to be moved individually so that they ca be moved closer together and become a flowing joined up letters rather than separate.

How to Make a Personalised Gym Bottle: Step 5
Move the letters one at a time, overlapping them slightly so that the font becomes joined. We’ve left the first letter of the name singular but it could be joined if you wish.

Once happy with the position of each of the letters, select ‘Weld’ from the ‘Actions’ menu at the bottom of the screen.

Measure the height of the bottle to determine the size your name needs to be. Open the ‘Edit’ menu at the bottom of the screen and add the dimension into the width box, ensuring that the padlock symbol is locked (this will enable your name to re-size proportionately). Double-check that the measurement that populates into the height box is okay for your bottle, if not simply adjust accordingly.

Once happy with the size of the name select the ‘Make It’ button from the bottom right-hand corner. You will then be taken through to the mat preview screen. Double-check that everything is present and correct before hitting the ‘Continue’ button in the bottom right-hand corner of the screen.

Select the 'Actions' icon from the toolbar at the bottom of the screen. Click on the butterfly and select the 'Attach' button. This will cause all of the components that make up the butterfly to turn one colour, which means it will be cut from one material.

Once happy with the size and positioning, select 'Make It' from the bottom right-hand corner of the screen. You'll then be taken through to the mat preview screen. Open the mats menu by clicking on the mat icon in the top left-hand corner of the screen (this should have the number two within it).

Use Cricut's Interactive Guide » to determine the best settings to set your EasyPress to, then adhere the designs one at a time to the top. We started with the name first, then added the butterflies one at a time.
