What Can You Do With Cricut? | Projects for Joy, Maker, Explore, & More!
Ойын-сауық
Free Cricut workshops at makeracademy.com/weekend
In this prep class for our upcoming Maker Academy Weekend workshops November 1-5, I dive into what we can do with the different Cricut models (Joy, Joy Xtra, Explore Air 2, Explore 3, Maker, Maker 3, and Venture) and I show you real-world examples of fun projects you can make with each one. I'll also preview many of the Maker Academy Weekend 2023 projects, so you can get better and closer views of them and learn what you can make with a cutting machine.
I also have a brief introduction to ALL of the Cricut cutting machines and we deep dive into the differences as well as really explore the many things they can do.
I pull out lots of finished projects to show you -- I have a literal storeroom of Cricut projects at this point I can show you, after all, because I just love to make stuff and I save it all.
Here are the projects shown in the video:
Cardstock:
1. Light-Up Angel: jennifermaker.com/light-up-an... (all Cricuts)
2. Candy Holders - jennifermaker.com/snowflake-c... (all)
3. Napkin Rings - jennifermaker.com/diy-napkin-... (all)
4. Hanging Star Ornaments - jennifermaker.com/hanging-sta... (all)
5. Autumn Shadowboxes - jennifermaker.com/autumn-shad... (Explore, Maker, Venture)
6. Paper Stain Glass - coming in December 2023! (all)
I think these classes will help you prepare for the big event, teach you the wide range of things you can do on any particular cutting machine, and inspire you to make awesome things!
Everyone is welcome!

You convinced me to pull the trigger and buy a Cricut and I am loving it. You are my one and only Cricut teacher. You are just incredible Jennifer.

She absolutely is! I don't even waste my time watching very many other Cricut, or for that matter, other cutter/laser/craft videos, tutorials, etc.
I love, love this video. My son and his wife are deciding on which Cricut they will purchase for their 3 daughters Christmas present. And several other family members are going to be buying a Cricut or two this year! I will be sharing this video with them. Plus...I am saving it in my YT files. In order to help myself in showing friends who have recently purchased their Cricut or plan to soon...I decided to make a chart indicating where info can be found in this video! Hopefully it will help a few people: 16:30 Cardstock, Angel light, Candy lollipop holder 19:30 Shadowbox Star Ornament 21:30 Stain Glass Shadow Box (Venture) 24:00 Adhesive Vinyl (Sticky vinyl) 24:30 Let It Snow Charger Plate 26:00 Ceramic mug with cute vinyl face 28:00 Iron-on Vinyl (In the hoop ornaments, Pillow) 30:34 Faux leather earrings 32:00 Stencils (Slate coasters etched) 35:15 Acetate (faux terrarium) 37:00 Foiling (Gift tags, Mandalas) 39:00 Pens and Markers (Labels, Watercolor bird) 44:50 Print then Cut 45:50 Stickers 48:24 Cards (Infinity card) 50:00 Fabric (Bowl Cozy) 54:00 Wood Veneer 57:00 Debossing (Thin gauge metal wreath, purse) 59:15 Engraving (Keychains, Acrylic disc nightlight) Knife blade 1:01:35 Home Sign (Bass wood) 1:14:30 Infusible Ink
I have a Cricut Joy for over 2 years now because i was just thinking small😊not so successful with cardmaking but cutting out vinyls for names on burlap bags, resin coasters and trays, plushie toys and labels have been my thing…still learning. I never tire watching your videos😊

This is interesting, I am into Resin and I was asking myself if the cricut joy extra will help me with the namings on my crafs. 😊😊 Do I need to print the names first in the ink printer or it can cut them direct. Which paper do you use for the names on resin crafts. I will really appreciate your response to my questions 🙏🏾
I have a maker, because I sew and loved the fact it cut fabrics. My main reason for choosing this machine. I also purchased a joy for my granddaughter. We love these machines💕👍

Curious how it does with cutting fabrics...
I originally signed up for my free ticket to the Maker Academy...but after seeing all the projects and presenters/instructors...I purchased the All Access ticket. I have a couple of courses in my Maker Academy files that I had purchased in the past. And I go back time after time and watch the videos on how to make different things for different occasions. Love, love all that the Maker Academy offers! And it's fine to be able to watch them free of course!!
Been looking at getting a cricut for the wife and I and browsing a lot of video channels to see tutorials and what projects it can do. This is one of very few that has no paid promotion which I dislike and even better, no ridiculous music while you narrate. Fantastic! Subscribed and enjoying your great content.

I have attended several academy events with you. I don’t think I have ever thanked you and your staff for all that you do and teach. THANK YOU!!!
Hi, my dearest Jennifer, I'm not watching live as I'm from Italy but I'll definitely be logged on for the Maker Academy Weekend. I'm really looking forward to it. Love sent,
Hi all. Pre-crafting from Indiana. Woot woot!!!!!
This blows the ones from years ago out of the water. I kind of feel like I really need this in my life, but I also feel like it would just uncover a rabbit hole! There’s just so much you could do and it’s endless. Being that it’s new though, I kind of wanna jump on it now so I can learn as new technology and products come out for it. It’s super exciting. Definitely going to join the group and check it out. Thank you so much. Awesome 🤩 ❤

I had a Cricut years ago but didn't use it very much because back then it required cartridges at $50 bucks a pop. It got too expensive and there might only be one or two things on the whole cartridge that I wanted to use. I ended up giving it away. Design Space is a game changer.

I made the illuminated angel you showed in this video. Your instructions were very clear and I really appreciated the detailed supplies list. The angel looks even better in reality than it looks in your video. They make beautiful gifts. Thank you !!!!!!!!!!!!
Watching replay. Excited for Maker Academy weekend!
I just got the joy xtra and so excited to start this journey with the help of your videos and academy!
Thank you for the thorough lesson! SO helpful in deciding which machine to buy - love your projects ❤

Hi Jennifer, I'm new to your work. I've purchased the explorer 3 machine. I mostly work with frit glass power and love trying to make simple stencils. My goal is to make my own stencils. I'm 75 years old and I'm challenged by the computer. I'm lost when it comes to downloading svg stencils. So I'm going to stay tuned today to see what I can pick up. Thank you for your positive energy. Rocky 😊
Awesome! You always make such inspiring tutorials.

Thank you so much. All I've ever used is the original Cricut & Cricut Expression. I am thinking of switching to Cricut Explorer or Cricut Maker. I am am artisan & sell my products. I design & make jewelry, greeting cards & art. I incorporate the Cricut in all of these things. I need to be able to download items the Cricut which I can't find on the Cricut Cartridges. I know it's quite a step up to go to a Explorer or Maker but then I can create so many more things.
I have the Cricut Joy & i love it already. I work simplified ❤

Hi from Texas
Thank you for your wonderful recording on how to get my Laptop out of S Mode. Finally, I've got the real Cricut program on my laptop so I can design things, then plug it into my Cricuit Explore 3. I chose the Explore 3 so that I could make wider designs to cover the front of a T-shirt, and not just create a small pocket size design.
