Stormtrooper Sleep Mask
Here at Ruffles and Rain Boots, we are all about Star Wars crafts lately. So, it made perfect sense that I needed to make a fun Stormtrooper sleep mask for a Disney cruise fish extender gift idea. It’s cool, fun, and I might even have to make one for my husband for Father’s day because he’s been eyeballing this one pretty hard.

Tips to Make a Stormtrooper Eye Mask
- Start by clicking here to get the epic and easy Stormtrooper helmet sleep mask cut file set.
- Then grab some awesome sleep masks like these to use as your blanks. Now, if you only plan on making one Stormtrooper eye mask, just get one, but you’re probably going to want several different colors because I have multiple cool designs in the works. Go ahead and check out the sleep mask designs I’ve made so far:
- If you’re anything like me and you keep all of your black vinyl scraps in a little bag near your Cricut, well, get ready to break those scraps out–this is the project for them!
- Definitely remember to make this easier for yourself and click the little button for the attach function in Design Space. Yeah, this might waste some vinyl, but it’s going to make placing each of the little individual pieces so much simpler, but if you’ve decided to be cutting with scraps, then you can discard that excess vinyl knowing it was worth a very good cause.
- It really helped me to take a few minutes to iron each of the eye mask before I started. The super thin satin fabric got fairly wrinkled when it’s shipped, so by ironing it out that made sure the vinyl was ironed-on evenly.
- If I’m going to recommend a heat transfer vinyl for this sleep mask, it’s going to be the Siser EasyWeed you can find here that I used. Because the cuts are such small pieces, it’s just so much more convenient to not have to deal with the whole separate transfer sheet thing.
