ABSTRACT:
A handicraft is created on a first medium and temporarily retained thereon for transfer and permanent attachment to a second medium. More particularly, a pattern is printed on one side of a transparent or translucent sheet material. On the opposite side of the sheet material there is a coating of a pressure sensitive temporary adhesive through which a reverse image of the pattern is visible. The outer surfaces of a craft material are then placed onto the sheet material over the pattern and are held thereon by the temporary adhesive. When satisfied with the arrangement of the craft material on the sheet material, a permanent adhesive is applied to the exposed surface of the craft material. The assembly of the craft material and the underlying sheet is then pressed against a desired transfer surface, such as an item of clothing, and kept in place until the permanent adhesive dries. The sheet material bearing the temporary adhesive is then removed from the outer surface of the craft material to leave the handicraft design in place on the transfer surface. In an alternate embodiment the craft material is provided with a thermally reactive glue on one side. Permanent attachment of the handicraft to the transfer surface is effected by applying heat to the handicraft through the sheet material.
