I'm 12 and im trying to make a gift for my mom without her helping me, thank you so much this was so helpful
That’s so sweet good luck on your project!!
I’m 12 too and im trying to figure out how to do this without help from my mom 😆
@@InsomniaSounds.2x .. I’m 12 too!! But I’m trying to surprise my sister.
this is 2 sweet... I won't tell my age lol!!!! but retired and would like to make a little extra funds...
This is just the sweetest thread of comments! ❤
Finally someone who actually shows how to use the mats and what they are for.
😊So glad this was helpful!
@@AppalachianHomeCo I also am grateful that someone is actually giving us a demonstration of how to use the cricut. I got mine for Christmas last year and other than opening it I've not touched it!
Cake looking for this exact thing too!
Very helpful than the other videos that I've seen. 🥰
Finally! Someone who got down to business and explained the basics!
Goodness! My daughter gifted me the Cricut Maker and I was lost as a puppy in the wild! Thank you for this!
You're so welcome!
Years ago I bought a pink Cricut (breast cancer awareness?) from Michael’s and it’s been sitting in the box collecting dust ever since. I completely forgot what it was even used for! 🤣 Thanks to this vid I now know.
I am trying to learn as much as possible to assist my wife in learning how to use" her " new Cricut. So far, you have been the best at explaining to a pure rookie. Great job. Subbed up to learn more.
Yay I’m so glad these videos are helpful!
Right!!! viewing and gonna do a step by step with her tutorial...
Pls my machine air 2 is not cutting paper. What can I do?
@@manisone9077 vinyl
Lmao I’m doing the same for my wife
I’m a complete beginner and still haven’t purchased a Cricut because I’m looking to see how difficult it is to use and what all I can actually do with it.. so far, I’m loving it and your videos are helping me, thank you so much ❤
You are so welcome!
Thank you - quick and concise and straight to the point. I was about to box my Cricut back up and return it today.
My local library just bought a Cricut machine for patrons to use and I have been hoping to make a couple of Christmas presents with it. This video was so helpful! I feel more confident giving it a shot now. Thank you Christy!
KRISTY YOU ARE THE MOTHER OF UNCLEAR INSTRUCTIONS
Lol!
Just ordered the cricut maker 2 days ago, can't wait to learn how to use it!!! Thanks for videos like this!
What a helpful video! I really like how you go step by step, even on the little things. I’ve decided to take on a few Christmas projects for my daughter and nephew. This helped my anxiety so much because I just got my machine this week!
That’s great I’m so glad this was helpful! Good luck on your Christmas projects!
This was very helpful, me and my mom just got one but we had no idea how to use the machine so thank you!😁
Hi! I’m so glad this was helpful! Good luck with your new machine you will enjoy it!😊
Your videos are so good, Christy - clear, concise, and you have a wonderful voice! I appreciate all your hard work in making these videos.
Oh thank you that’s so nice!
Spoke for me. And I love the accent!
Thank you so much for explaining all these tools and what they are for..I've had my Maker for a few months now and this is because I had no idea how to do even the basic stuff. You are making it easy to understand. Much appreciated ma'am..
Aw you're so welcome!
Im a choir director and I needed stickers for choir, this video was the best help I could ever asked for
You did a wonderful job of teaching this! I will be watching again when I unpack. I was intimidated, but this was hugely helpful. Lots of people on YT "know stuff," but they can't "teach stuff" well. Kudos.
I'm so glad this helped thanks for the comment!
Wow thank you this was so helpful. I’m 14 and I’m starting a designing business and this really did help me a
A lot. Wish me luck 😆
That’s so smart of you I wish I had tried starting a business A LOT sooner!! Best of luck keep working at it, don’t give up, and you will succeed.👍🏻
Good luck!
Good luck!! Tell me how you are going!!
Good luck 👌
Good luck to you!
The best explanations I have found so far! Thank you!
That’s so great I’m so glad! Thank you!😊
Thank you for a thorough explanation.
You are the cutest! Love your accent! This was such a well filmed and well thought out video! I'm saving up for one of these and can't wait to get one! I bet this has been a great help to many. Thank you!
That’s so sweet of you thank you so much!!😊
@@AppalachianHomeCo you're most welcome!
Wonderful video. It was so informative, delivered in a concise, straight to the point way. Thank you!!!
Thx I got print press saw this this morning and ordered it praying that I’ll have my business up and going 💖🙌🏽
That’s great!! Good luck with your business!!👏🏼
I got this machine for Christmas 3 years ago and it's been sitting because I don't have a clue how to even begin to use it. This is the 1st video that has helped. For people who are brand new to this, it helps to have the person giving a tutorial to speak to us like we've never heard the terminology before, like you did. I may actually be able to do something with this nice machine now--I really need it, just didn't know how to get started, till now. Thanks so much!
Oh that’s so great I’m so, so glad this was helpful for you! Hope you get started using your machine!!
Omg I got the the cricut explore for xmas and I'm so intimidated. I still haven't try..SCARE all the trimology is so confusing to me. Have to learn the cricut language so I can figure this machine out and start crafting..... omg
Out of all!!! The video's iv watched. I understand this one. Thanku for explaining so detailed, and slowly.
So helpful! Thank you!
Greatly appreciate the step by step guide, especially for those of us whom are a bit technically challenged at times! ;-)
Thank you I’m glad this was helpful!!😊
Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us! I’m new at this and also 73 years old.
You’re welcome!! Good for you!🙌🏻
Wow..thank you for concise instructions on the use of cricut machine and design space. I feel better to start a small project. Love you demonstrates.
Thank you!😊
Amazing video, you’re so clear and concise!
That’s so nice thank you!

Great tutorial....Thank you! I love my Cricut.
Hi that’s so great I love mine too🙂 Thanks so much!
Thank you for such a great explanation, I purchased a Maker recently, I didn't realise that it was possible to make projects without a subscription to Cricut Access. I am in Australia and we are not listed on the countries with access to subscriptions. I thought I had wasted my money on the machine. I am a new subscriber to your channel and want to make Farmhouse style signs mainly for my own use. I was finding it a tad confusing but it is becoming clearer, I will be watching your videos. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
That’s so great I am so glad the videos are helpful and you found my channel!! Thank you!
THANK YOU!
This is very helpful thank you!!!

Thank you so much !! My teen 15 year old daughter driving me mad to purchase one for her 16th Birthday. Thanks for the explanation. She wants the latest model I take it going to cost a small fortune £££ . Lol 😂 I didn’t realise how many different cutting mats there are . Wow 😮 there so much you can do with this machine . She’s going to make her own gifts for family and friends and a few charities and maybe sell some could pay for it self . Great video !!! Thanks 🙏
Hi so glad you enjoyed the video!! She will definitely love it! It really is a great investment I wish I had one at that age!!😊

@@AppalachianHomeCo you're very welcome!
NOICE VERY GOOOOOOOOOOD
Thank you! I’m to the point where I want to sell my cricut, but I thought I would give it one more chance. I’ve had it a month and HATE how complicated and confusing it is.
You’re welcome I’m sorry bout your Cricut. There is a lot to learn with cutting machines and different vinyls, what works and what doesn’t, can be frustrating. But after a while it will become second nature and be worth it.😉
There are so many tutorials you can watch to learn! It’s really not that complicated after you practice!
Me too. It is overwhelming so I am going to immerse myself in cricut videos. I can figure this out, I hope.
Thanks for the info i need this for my lego ww2 decals
Awesome so glad this was helpful!!😊
Well thanks 🙂
This was very helpful and I’m sure i will be watching again. I don’t have my cricket yet. Waiting to see if Santa gets it for me
Hi! So glad this was helpful I hope Santa comes thru!!! 🎁
