Working with tarps with glued decals

Some tarps have glued-on letters which makes the tarp thicker and harder for my vinyl cutter to cut through the layers. I have tried to peel off the decal in the some cases, but that is time-consuming. Also, some decals don't lend themselves to being removed. I tried a multicut and that cuts through both layers, but its a bit messy. Maybe if the cuts were simpler in design it would yield a better result.

I had been setting that type of tarp aside, but now I'm seeing that I will be able to work with it, even though it will take longer on the cutting machine.

Vase Sleeve

A humble salad-dressing bottle gets a Mid Century Modern slipcover with a circle tesselation. Groovy, baby.

Garden Fencing

This idea for garden fencing comes from the necessity of keeping soccer balls out of the garden. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, now to adjust the positions of the tabs and make some more for this flower bed.

This design only requires inexpensive bamboo stakes to install. The tab and slot extensions at the sides adjust to fit the diameter of the bamboo stake.
