Uses for the Weeding Hook

We’re just finishing up our Spring Break, and it was fairly relaxing, so I enjoyed that in my first year as a paraeducator!

We visited some family, some college campuses, I did some reading and crafting and shopping and baking.

For today’s Cricut Minute, let me praise the humble weeding hook.

While essentials for removing extra vinyl and iron-on from a design, it can be used for a lot of other things too!


Today’s Tip: Other Uses for a Weeding Hook

  • Position a small piece of cardstock for gluing
  • Press the inside seam of a 3D project while glue dries
  • Poke a hole for a brad
  • Tear the plastic shrink wrap around new vinyl
  • Get under the edge of tape keeping a new vinyl roll rolled up
  • Free dried paint or glue from a bottle
  • Pull away the backing of transfer tape if my fingernails can’t get it
  • Push a piece of vinyl back into place if it came off the liner (for adhesive) or the carrier sheet (for HTV)
