Hack: when applying liquids (alcohol, vinegar, goo gone, etc) use paper coffee filters instead of paper towels… they are made so they don’t leave behind any lint or small paper fuzz and works great
Such a wonderful idea! Thank you!
Good one!
Ty!! 🎉
Coffee filters have sooo many benefits in the home, other than for coffee making. Ty
First, you’re adorable. OK, moving on, I love that you’re not attached to Cricut, I’ve heard that their vinyl really is not that great. Very very useful ideas! Thank you!
Mat cleaning hack: I use these silicon scrubby things I found at the dollar tree. They are found in the body care, makeup, and baby care areas… basically silicon with little nubbies on it… they have been called reusable washcloths, brush cleaners, and face cleaners. Any style will work. I then have a spray bottle with water and a teaspoon of dawn dish soap that I shake up. I spray my mat and use the silicon scrubby to gently wash my mat. I rinse with water and let air dry. This returns the stickiness and never leaves any fuzz or residue behind. LOVE my mats again!
When applying vinyl to any non porous surface… spritz with a little water (distilled water works best). This allows the vinyl to move around a bit before sticking so you can place it perfectly… then using your fingers or burnishing tool you squeegee the water out from behind your vinyl. This removes the water, prevents air bubbles, and is far more forgiving when placing your design. Set it aside for several hours while the little bit of moisture dries and your design is well stuck. This is called the wet method and is a variation that professionals use when applying designs to glass doors and cars. You can search UA-cam for tons of examples. This was a game changer for me!
This is absoLUTEly genius!! Thank you for sharing!
Yes we do this when applying automotive decals. Saves a lot of frustration.🙂👍
Although the ‘hack’ to find the center of the shirt is a great one… the easiest way to find the center of your design is to put a small rectangle/square into your design (not touching any of the design itself) and center it to your design prior to cutting. I would fold and press, then use marking chalk (the kind that is found in the sewing section of fabrics stores) to lightly mark the fold to make it easy to see (this mark will brush/wash away and will have no effect on the HTV adhesion). Now simply line up your design using the small square you centered with your design and press the HTV liner down with your hands… once most of your design is sticking to the correct place on your shirt, use your finger or weeding tool to peel off the small square. This takes less time and is super easy… it actually takes longer to explain than to do it.
OMG! I’m just at the first hack of leaving the vinyl on the mat to weed it…how did I NOT think of that!?! Thank you 🙏!!!
You're welcome!
One hack I do that I never see mentioned is that I like to weed a whole bunch of things then apply the transfer tape to all, then cut out individual images. So for example with vinyl labels I might cut on a 12x12, weed all the labels on the 12x12, apply a 12x12 sheet of transfer tape, then cut out each label. It is faster to weed and I can also precut the materials rather than having to cut the exact size. Plus since the transfer tape exactly matches the paper backing it doesn't get stuck everywhere.
I totally agree… and by creative placing, by angling each smaller cut in between your longer ones reduces vinyl waste and saves you a bunch of time!
I thought everyone did this.. It's common sense! Lol then again our world is lacking a lot of common sense these days 😉🥰
Totally agree
@@kristenadorno I agree common sense does not exist in society nowadays lol!
Do you reuse the transfer tape?... Because you can use that sheet at least for another 5 transfers
finally found someone who explains things to do and not speed talk. glad I found you
I recently discovered the "manage costume materials" function, no one ever told me it existed. Using it was a game changer for me. My blade stopped cutting well on some materials. I thought I should change the knife. I learned, instead, that changing the blade pressure setting on the material I will use solved the problem. I just increase the pressure two at a time; test to see if it's working, and if it doesn't, I adjust it again. Easy!
When I sew, I keep a notebook of materials, number of layers, and stitch tension and length; that way if I want to do the same project I can refer to it and instantly set the same settings.
I will be doing this same thing for my Cricut projects! 😊
Tanner, I have been using Cricuts since the Expression. But your video today made it "fun" to learn new things that I can do with my Cricut Maker and Explore. Hacks #10 thru 20 were the most helpful. I thank you for all the help you are giving to all of us loyal Cricuteers.
Our pleasure! Thanks for your support!❤
Thank you so much for showing the flatten feature to help print then cut. Love your videos. They definitely keep me interested in my machine. I was nervous I would have wasted money on my Cricut Maker. I’m now trying to get more comfortable and hope to eventually, down the line start a small business. I really enjoy the line fill when engraving on acrylic, never thought I’d be able to make something I can light up with LEDs. After watching your videos, I’ve started my crafting journey with more difficult projects first. I’m pleasantly surprised. Just need to get better. Thank you for all you do!!!
You're always welcome!❤
I clean my mats with pink stuff(paste). Cleans so well and the stickiness comes back so good!!!
When I got my Cricut years ago I did a side by side price difference. I took a few different co. And took the cost per piece, per roll and made a n extra place to compare the width and length of each item and took the price of them. It really helped to know where I’m saving money. 143 is definitely the winner on cost.
That's amazing!
P
It certainly is!!!!! ❤143!
Don't be shy, share the comparison chart lol
Great hack for removing the grid from the back ground… when making labels, signs, and websites for craft sales this was a great way to be able to print/view the designs in other apps, thank you so much!
Thank you for the hacks my favorite is exporting a design I made out of design space I really needed to know how to do that
You're welcome!
Loved them all. Some I already apply but got some fantastic tips I didn't know about, like color sync, and one mat. Thank you so much Tanner.👍
You're so welcome!
Wow! Thank you so much for sharing how to cut different colors on one mat. I have been cutting multiple colors on one mat for years… but I have always made them all the same color and then had to be very careful remembering which color went where on my mat… but now it is so much easier, thank you.
You're welcome!
I loved the one about using the tool to see what font you used after you welded the design. Brilliant
THIS DUDES ENERGY IS FREAKING AWESOME!!!!!!!
The test cut in the shape of a star will definitely be one that I will use. I learned a lot from watching this video and have already saved for future reference. Thanks Tanner! I also plan to look into becoming a member of the Makers Gonna Learn soon.
You're always welcome!❤
OMG, I just LOVE YOU Tanner! You are such a bright light! I received my Explore Air 2 a couple of weeks ago, unboxed it yesterday and will use it soon (I hope)! I'm nervous, but I feel like I will have Tanner by my side cheering me on!! I'm so happy I found you! Thank you for your positive, bubbly, infectious attitude and teachings!!
Aww, thank you for your love and support!❤
I echo EVERYTHING you just stated! My sentiments EXACTLY!
WOW! I had several months away from my beautiful Criut machines and felt a little overwhelmed comming back. I was having trouble with the new updates and couldn't really remember how to do all the things I did before. TY *SOOOO* much for this video! It really was like someone just standing there with me and guiding me back to my playground! Take care and have a wonderful holiday season and new year! ♥
You're so welcome! Stay safe & happy holidays!
Love the flatten & print
You’re the BEST Tanner!! Thank you SO much for sharing your talent!! These hacks are so amazing! I am a beginner and your tutorials take the anxiety out of the process!! Thank you for your thorough explanations!! LOVE your channel!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks so much for your love and support!❤
Tanner & co, where have you been all my life? Well, since I got my cricut lol - I’m from uk n have had my machine a year BUT not got very far - projects I’ve done have been ok but I just lack ideas n inspiration!
It’s now 6.35AM n since I found your Chanel at 11PM last night, I’ve been hooked n awake and excited EVER SINCE!!!!! Thank you all sooo much - I feel much more knowledgeable n wanna get started N O W! Lol
I came across a “car trash bag” which is made out of material, (which I find hard to cut in a straight line) but it’s the ideal size to make for my 3 year old granddaughter, who has a pretend shop wiv small grocery items n it’s gonna make her soooo happy!
I’m sorry for waffling on but honestly, I’m really buzzing now, thanks to U!
I loved the hacks on how to save the images. And removing the grid. So many great and very useful ideas. I'm recommending this channel to all my friends.
Thank you! New here and loving this video ♥️ I'm not super new but still learning new things with my circuit.
I'm brand new to Cricut and didn't know how to do anything. You have helped me soooo much. Thank you so much, Tanner!
You are so welcome!
The guide and the color sync and flatten were most helpful. but all were amazing.
Glad you think so!
Great hacks! My favorite is the second one (the measuring squares). It’s so simple! No more wasting materials.
I totally agree!
This is definitely off topic, but I never expected a husband/wife marriage here… please don’t be mad… these are the best circuit hacks and videos anywhere! I keep coming back and can’t stop.
Thanks for the mat cleaning tip.
Thank you Tanner for these great hacks. I never knew about the guide and the colour sync. Also now I know how to clean my mats!! Yay!!
Great to hear!
These were all great! Thank you Tanner. I’m so glad I saw this before starting. Putting slits in the vinyl for round objects like an ornament is awesome! I also had no clue in Design Space pngs, svgs, jpeg can’t be exported….taking a screenshot is a great hack!
Very welcome!
Thank you for this tip about the coffee filter!
Just this morning I needed that "new window" hack but hadn't watched this video!! I am soooo excited about being able to work while something else is printing!!
Have fun!
WOW GREAT TIPS!
Loved the color sync, the new page for second project and the print screen for Mac. AWESOME ‼️🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🎊🎊
Glad you love it!
Great video full of useful info. I like to use a capital B as a test cut as it shows how well it cuts curves and inside cuts.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Can you hook up the first CriCut to the internet and do this to????
This video was so easy to learn your tips and to understand why that tip works, Great job, this video was really needed
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I’ve been using my Cricut for over ten years and still don’t know what to do with some of the commands. I’ve learned a lot today.
Hi, Tanner, love your easy-going videos. Lots of learning ❣️
Thanks so much!
Very helpful tips and love your positive, cheerful presentation, thank you so much!
You're so welcome!
Favorite is how to take the design to another program! These area all great tips. Thank you so much!

Congrats on the 50k, you earned it. I found this site because we have common interests, sublimation, vinyl and screen printing (for me). I have used some of your ideas for screen printing. I stay with this site because you are good at what you do. You can talk to users of all skill levels and keep it interesting. And, you are the real boss.
Thank you so much!
Just got mine for my birthday... haven't even taken it out of the box yet... but watching videos so hopefully I learn something as not to get discouraged when using it.
I love the Guide Hack, Why did I not know this sooner? My life has just changed 100 %! THANK YOU!
You're welcome!
You can click the blank box (between the vertical row and horizontal row) twice to get rid of the grid. Much faster. 👍🏼🥰
Thank you!
Wow! Game changer!!! Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you !!!!
Love all these. Thanks
So glad you love them!
Lots of very helpful hacks! Thank you!
So glad they're helpful!
The “taco method” for applying vinyl is a game changer for me. Thank you for sharing it.
You are so welcome!
Finally I get it with a sticker maker!! Thank you!
You're welcome!
You have the sweetest accent and most pleasant tone I’ve ever heard. 🥹😭

Glad to hear it!
I was really impressed with everything. Some of the techniques I already use, but I picked up some great new tips thanks
Thank you!
Your first hack is what I’ve been doing and having issues with.
My vinyl backing is sticking to the mat so much I’m struggling to get it off and when I do my decal curls
I'm LOVING your videos, Tanner! I've only watched a few thus far, but I've learned a TON of things! I just got my Cricut (Explore 2) and have learned that I need a Maker to do everything that I desire to do (am getting the Maker and a Joy later this month when our bonus comes in), so I appreciate ALL of the videos and money saving tips that you and your team provides. 🥰🤩Your information will definitely be the 🗝to my success 😅! I'm also going to become a member on your website, btw... MUWAHHH!!
We are excited to have you in the community! Best of luck!😊❤
Thanks for all the tips. They are very helpful.
You're always welcome!
Good tips, Tanner. Did not know about hack 10…will be very useful.
Glad to hear it!

You're welcome!
My husband got me my cricut for my birthday and I have been too scared to take it out of the box but it's time. And I found your videos and it had helped me sooooo much! Thank you so much!
Glad we could help!
I I am very new to cricut and cricut design space and I am still learning thow to use the program I sure did appreciate you showing us how to put a memo so that we can find the design and or the place that we bought the design. Thanks so much for these hacks
You are so welcome!

So glad it was helpful!
Thank you!

My 2 favorite was screen shots and opening the second window. I didn’t know you can do that.
Wow…just wow!!! Such awesome hacks to know.
Thanks for watching!
143 vinyl squeegee Tumblr holder was a fantastic tip!
I did not know about hack #11! Thanks
Hack ?
#15... Mind BLOWN!
All thx
🙋♀️I love the hacks, makes me believe I can conquer the beast with your help🤷♀️😁🤦♀️
Extra tip for the baby wipe tip! You can use your scraper tool and scrape off any left over residue/fuzz that’s left over after the baby wipe! I’ve been doing this and it works great!
Great tip!
What about cat hair? I can’t seem to get it all no matter what I do
I’ve always had a special mat aside for weeding . That way my cutting mat stays clean. I also use alcohol wipes to clean my items . I’ve tried the baby wipes with not such good results . I clean with the dish soap. Let it dry . Then i apply a piece of transfer tape to cover mat. Let it on for a few days . Then i remove the transfer tape and it’s like new. Very sticky . I then reuse the large piece of transfer tape . Another hack i do is i keep transfer backing from my htv. I then use it when i weed to put the scraps on . It works great . When it’s full, i fold it up and discard.
OMG..Tips 12-20!!! My mind is blown!! So many amazing tips!! I can't wait to see how my projects become so much easier!! Thank you Tanner!!!! 💥💥💥😎
Glad you liked them! Thank you for watching. 😊
Thank you , I've been trying to figure out how to make stickers!!
You are so welcome!
Sei fortissimo!
Non ho capito bene l'hack 19 ma gli altri li utilizzerò sicuramente, grazie 😊
On Black Friday I purchased a Cricut explore air 2. I know it’s not the best on the market but it is all that I could afford being on social security and I almost took it back because I didn’t know the first thing about how to work it. I watched many videos and that didn’t help then I came across your video. Al I can say thank you not only do you take the time to explain you also show where we are able to get accessories cheaper which is a big plus for me. Another problem I have is all the memberships not sure which one I can get for my money. I probably not buy another machine (printer or other machines). I just want to say thank you
I needed all 20 hacks
Thanks for sharing
Most welcome 😊
Amazing hacks - thank you so much
You're so welcome!
Great hacks and ideas thank you 😊
Glad you like them!
GREAT HACKS THANK YOU
