I found some free pumpkin designs on designbundles.net. I wanted them just for personal use but you do get a commercial license with them if you would like to sell them.

I also found a cute little quote on Pinterest to use with the design and put them all together. Just to note, If you want to read the wording from the inside of your window, you will need to mirror it. I used Amastery Font Duo for my wording.

When your design is ready, send it to Design Space and make sure it is the correct size. Then set to ‘Custom’ (for an Air and Omega machine) and click on ‘Window Cling’ before sending it to your machine for cutting.

If you have a different machine the instructions that come with the window cling set out guidance for the right pressure etc.

Once the pieces are cut, weed as you would with normal vinyl. It is quite hard to see the cut lines so be super careful getting rid of all the little in between bits.

To remove any surface dust from the window, I used a microfiber duster to wipe it down. There are instructions on how best to prepare the window included with the window cling, and if the design is not too intricate you can just remove the transfer tape and stick it straight on the window dry. Use your Cricut scraper to push out all the air bubbles. You could use something flat such as a credit card or store card if you don’t have a Cricut scraper. It does take a bit of pushing to remove the air bubbles, just take care not to scratch your window. You will notice that the cling appears a darker colour once the air bubbles have dispersed.

The cling sticks well and peels off the window easily so you could reuse it or move it to another window, if you prefer.

I stuck the more intricate design on the window with the transfer tape still applied and here is my final design.

I hope you enjoyed that and it's given you a bit of inspiration for Halloween or Christmas or any type of holiday or celebration. The cling is so easy to apply and remove that you could use them for all sorts of things.
