Unconventional Merit Patches Designed For Life's Noteworthy Achievements

Adulting is hard. Someone should make iron-on merit badge patches to celebrate everyday adulting achievements. Oh wait. We did!

The “Environmental - Set 1” of Winks For Days merit badges includes 3 patches. Recycled, Reduced Waste, and Reused. These merit badge patches are all about showing others that you do your part for the planet and encouraging them to do the same. Grab your backpack and iron them on!

Recycled
Sorting plastics, paper, and glass like a champ! Recycling takes a bit of effort, but we believe it’s definitely worth it. So does planet earth. If you recycle, you earned the Recycled patch!

Reduced Waste
Recycling is great, but reducing waste is better. By avoiding single-use plastics and other wasteful products, we all win. If you reduced trash, you earned the Reduced Waste patch.

Reused
Grabbing a water, soda, or juice out of the fridge is convenient, it’s true, but the consequences of convenience add up. If you opted to reuse the same bottle you earned the Reused patch!

IRON-ON PATCH INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Preheat your iron: Set your iron to a medium to high heat setting.

  2. Prepare the garment: Ensure that the garment or fabric item you plan to attach the patch to is clean and free from wrinkles. Lay it flat on a hard, sturdy, and heat-resistant surface.

  3. Position the patch: Place the embroidered iron-on patch face up wherever you'd like.

  4. Protect the patch: Place a thin cloth or cotton fabric on top of the patch before ironing. This prevents direct contact between the iron and the embroidered surface.

  5. Apply heat: Place the hot iron on top of the patch, directly over the design. Apply firm, even pressure without moving the iron around. Hold it in place for about 45 seconds.

  6. Apply heat to the back: Turn garment inside-out and place the hot iron on the back of the patch, directly over the design, for about 30 seconds.

  7. Check the adhesion: Carefully lift the corner of the patch to see if it adhered to the fabric. If the patch lifts off, place it back down and reapply heat for a few more seconds until it firmly sticks.

  8. Allow to set: Let the patch and garment to cool down for a few minutes. Avoid touching the patch while it's still warm, as it may not have fully bonded to the fabric yet. It's generally recommended to wait at least 24 hours before washing to ensure maximum durability.

Note: If you've followed the above steps and your patch is still not sticking, it might be worth considering alternative attachment methods such as sewing or using fabric glue.
