Make your own Halloween Special Effects: Glow in the Dark Vinyl Reveals!

It’s that spooky season again, when the moon seems to bathe everything in an eerie glow… Read on for details on how to add some Hollywood movie magic to Halloween costumes, trick-or-treat bags, and other items, using Siser Glow-in-the-Dark adhesive and heat transfer vinyl.

Now you see it now you don’t!

With a little creativity and a little (night) vision, you can create a scary reveal on any light or dark colored fabric or apparel blank.

Steps to Make Spooky Reveal Trick-or-Treat Bag:

Step 1: First, you’ll need both some Siser Glow-in-the-Dark and solid-white heat transfer vinyl, and a blank canvas or fabric bag (all available at USCutter.com!)
Step 2: Vectorize your spooky Halloween cutfile. Separate the cut jobs into white vinyl for the part of the design that will be visible in daylight, and glow-in-the-dark (appears like white) vinyl for the part of the design you want to illuminate the darkness.
Step 3: Put down the Glow-in-the-Dark layer first, then briefly tack the heat transfer onto the bag’s facing for 5 seconds. Then lay down the layer of white vinyl, and follow the recommended pressure and temperature settings on your heat press for the full duration of the heat press cycle.
Step 4: Voila!
Note: you can do similar effects on shirts or other fabrics, including dark colors.
Also, don’t limit your imagination to Halloween (see this cool glow-in-the-dark directional signage made from Siser EasyPSV Glow-in-the-Dark adhesive vinyl)…
or vinyl (check out this cool dye-sublimation printed trick-or-treat bag!)…
