Not sure why some people are saying they wouldn’t sell these. I absolutely would sell them. There is as much work cutting out the foam as there is with any other material, and the end result is stunning
Thank you!
This is such a great tutorial! I’m a teacher and always find myself wanting a new sign for my classroom each year but they are SO expensive! Thanks so much for showing a true step by step tutorial. I’m new to circuit so showing us the creating, printing, and even how to change the blade helps sooo much!
You are so welcome! I went to school to be a teacher and have a Bachelor's in Biology, but I decided to be a teacher on UA-cam instead 😅 I'm really glad you found this video helpful, and I'm sure you'll find a lot more on my channel just like it! Thanks for watching!
How fun to see a technique card makers have used for years on a home decor project like this! YAY!!!
The sky is the limit with a Cricut machine and a little creativity 😊
AWESOME way to have the wood-look without an expensive & tedious scroll saw. 2 tips: I would use transfer tape to move the words (have to be with little tackiness) Second tip: tape your ruler down with painters tape so your words/letters are nice and straight. Please keep the out-of-the-box ideas coming. This is brilliant! Thanks 🙏
Thanks for the comment and great tips!
I loooooove this idea! Will definitely be trying this and hopefully adding these wood signs and other products to my Etsy shop.
I hope you get tons of sales! 🤑

Love this! Now I know my Air 2 can cut craft foam. I have also used craft foam for stamps with craft paint. Now i don't have to cut it by hand. There's lots of uses for craft foam. Keep those great ideas coming. Can't wait for your next one.

Oh my goodness Carrie ( not sure of the spelling of your name sorry ) this is a game changer ! I have been following your channel for a very long time and you have been by far the best content creator of Cricut I have found. Thank you so very much for your inspiration and your game changing insights. Love & Much Thanks from Nova Scotia, Canada 🇨🇦 xo
This has to be one of the best comments I've ever read 🥺❤️ thank you so so much for the ultimate compliment! You made my day! -Kerri 🥰
@Cricuter OH my goodness Kerri. I have been following you for so long and I usually craft in the wee hours of the night so ( I am a special needs teacher) and crafting is both a creative outlet and a way to engage my kids of all ages and skill levels so everytime I see you've posted a new video I immediately go to see it, especially the closer it gets to Christmas I need ideas because I let the kiddos make presents for their family members so it takes ( in some cases ) a very long time to complete a project.P.S. absolutely no thanks needed. You make an awesome teacher !xo
@@sylviamacdonald7625 I'm speechless! I'm so glad I inspire you. Thank you for the kind words. I even showed my husband my phone like 🥺😍 what a nice thing to read!
@Cricuter LOL, I am so happy you were pleased with my comments, but truly your videos are easy to follow regardless of your level of skill. I also like them because they are geared to helping you sell your items which comes in very handy at Christmas. PLEASE keep creating these videos. They truly are a huge help with newbies in the Cricuit world like myself.
THANK YOU for this great tutorial.. I wouldn't of known it was foam
You're welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks! Awesome video!
You're very welcome 🥰
Great hack!!😊
Thanks! 😄
I left a few comments & tips 3 days ago. I’m so excited and my project is very close to begin cutting! 😃 In my design I made a 2nd text box with the same words and size. But when I cut, im going to use black foam (the front is orange) I believe this will make an even more pronounced 3D effect. Looks awesome in design space, now on to cutting. Just a thought thanks to your video. THANKS!🙏
Oh that sounds awesome! Are you in my Facebook group? I'd love if you posted a picture so we can all see your finished project! facebook.com/groups/CricutSVGs
Thanks for invite!
I just loved watching you do this tutorial ❤😊. I just got my very first Cricut machine and am learning. Thank you 😊🙏
I'm so glad to hear that! I hope you love your Cricut as much as I do! Happy crafting 😄
Just found you and love this!!! Thank you!
I'm glad to hear that! 🥰 thanks for the follow!
abSOlutely love this idea!!! I will be using it for a project for my niece’s bedroom!! I just have to get the blade! Thank you for sharing!!!
Tip: use a sponge makeup triangle to apply glue to intricate pieces.
Hugs and Happy Creating!!!
I'll try that, thank you!
Great idea!
I like the idea ! More affordable for seller and buyer ☺️
Yes! Thank you!
I love this idea, and thank you for sharing! Although I do like the larger wood rounds, target does have the nice smaller ones and Walmart has the black 13in ones as well! I’ll be doing this! Thanks again!!❤
I’m sure using the offset feature will also add a nice effect as well!!
Thank you for the helpful tips!
I saw your video on my feed and it blew me away. I get so discouraged when I see my UA-cam subs making things from a laser cuz they got it for free. I hate the way it makes me feel that I have to have one but I understand its part of the game. This was awesome and I'm gonna have to check out the rest of ur videos. Thank you this was amazing!
Cricut crafting is like a gateway drug into sublimation, laser engraving, painting, etc. I always feel the pressure to learn and make all the things too. But one thing at a time, one day at a time! This hack isn't as good as a laser engraver but it allows you to make 3d projects without all that extra money and stuff. Just try to have fun with it 🥰
This is what I’ve been looking for! I, too, hate to paint but I’ve been longing to make wood signs for my in laws. I have 2 wood signs I bought at Target last year. They are actually charcuterie boards with a handle jute string so they are ready to hang. They even already have a dark finish. The timing is perfect. I’ve been looking at cutting foam and my deep point blade is arriving today and my purple mats tomorrow! Looks like I have Christmas presents all set! New subbie here!
That's awesome, I hope your projects come out amazing! You should share them in my Facebook group when they're done!
And thanks for the follow!
I just saw those foams yesterday in Michael’s. I was debating on getting them.
I bet you'll be going back now 😆
@@CricuterI definitely will! My daughter is moving and I’m going to be decorating and organizing their place.
Would spraying with a polyurethane spray make it outdoor safe?
Perhaps I missed it! But did you share what settings you used to cut the foam??
Super vidéo ! Que d’idées de génie ! Je n’ai pu résister de regarder pour comprendre et suis épatée par le résultat ! Cela rend tellement bien, et même professionnel. Je suis en France mais je suis sure de trouver les supports cités ici aussi. Merci 🙏
Thank you! ❤
Target has been selling rounds for a while now. Besides the difference in price, there’s also quality. Home Depot’s rounds are better quality than targets. I can sell my rounds from Home Depot for more money than I can from the ones at target. But I guess it’s all about preference. 😊
Thanks for the feedback!
I am definitely going to get some foam and try this!! But I get my wood rounds from Menards…. 12” is $5.79 and 15” is $8.98 How well do you think the foam would hold up outside?
I don't have one of those stores near me but I'm sure your comment will be helpful to others who do! I've never put one outside but I feel like with the modge podge over it it would be pretty waterproof. You would have to stain the wood too to waterproof it.
Foam won't hold up to the weather, not even dishwasher safe modpodge.
Oh shoot. While I’d love to get a machine to do wood cut outs. I had hoped this would have been an easy option. Thank you!!
Yaaaasssssss!!!!! immediately subscribed thanks for this video, I want a laser soooo stinkin bad and this vid saves me money and will potentially MAKE me $. Loves this thanks so much
Thanks for the sub! I bet you're going to make so much cool stuff now!
I have not tried foam before, but I think I would put transfer tape or contact paper, on the letters before taking it off the mat. It wo.
uld probably make it easier to transfer onto the wood, without having to place each letter. Just a thought. Not sure how it would work
It's worth a try. I didn't get a clean cut all the way through the foam so I kind of had to lift it up and pull it apart with my fingers. It wasn't easy to weed like vinyl. So the pieces didn't stay in place to be able to use transfer tape with. I'm sure after doing it a few times and playing around with the cut settings you could do what you're suggesting
Just wondering why you didn’t use a transfer paper or tape to lift the letters? I think it would be easy to apply the glue and the put it on the wood? Loved your ideas, they looked so nice!
I've never worked with craft foam before so I wasn't really sure what I was doing lol I'll try transfer tape next time. I didn't think it would stick at the time
Sorry if I missed it, but why do you apply mod podge to the letters?
It makes the foam look more solid and shiny like painted wood. Less like foam
Can we also use the deep knife blade .. I have that with me
I've never tried but I don't see why not
10 thumbs up❤
🥰❤
Maybe I missed it, what grip mat is that?
Purple strong grip mat
Can I use a knife blade or does it have to be deep point?
A knife blade would probably work better
What kind of glue did you use?
amzn.to/3M6pIRn
Why do you add the modpodge ?
It gives the foam a hard, shiny painted look. It makes it look less like foam and more like wood
The one at HD was $8/$10 not too long ago and they are 17 inches, so much bigger. I don't think you should sell foam words unless it is stated they are foam.
These are great for personal use and to sell as long as they know it is foam. 😊
Thanks for the info! 🥰 I'll have to give those ones a try!
What’s the glue you use ?
amzn.to/3Q8JrAT
Can you use a silhouette
I don't see why not! I don't own one but I think it should work
How about getting that mockup copy back to your computer. We all know that Cricut does not allow you to save to our computers. Hope they will soon change this to be an option.
Screenshot it! Use the print screen button on your keyboard
Did everything on this video and it is still not cutting good😢
These are really cute to make for yourself but to sell? I’m just not sure. How would you advertise this as it not being real wood and made from foam? While it looks like real wood I’m just not sure customers would like to buy something that looks like wood but is really foam. ..(and I’m not trying to be rude or argumentative I’m honestly asking this to you or for anyone else’s opinions out there.)
I get what you are saying. I guess you would have to say it’s a “wood 3D sign” and say materials used are wood and foam.
All good points to consider!
This is a genius idea. I can't wait to try it. 😃 Thanks for sharing this!!
It looks fantastic and just as real as wood. Just advertise as wood and foam signs. Or just call them “signs”. I don’t mind if a wood sign is vinyl or painted. I don’t think customers would mind as they aren’t going to walk up to it on their wall and feel it. If they do, spray the foam with some sort of an acrylic spray to harden it up. It’s all about appearance. Plus I would guess that the price would be a lot cheaper than using real wood. Which is always a bonus in my opinion! ❤
@@jodisipple3253 you're welcome!
Can these be hung outside?
I've never tried but you would have to seal/stain the wood first. I think the foam would hold up outside, especially after being painted with mod podge
Love this idea!
Hate the weird background noise while you are on the computer.
Thank you. I hate it too and I have a new mic on the way to fix it. When I turn on my screen recorder it picks up the sound of my computer fans running. Drives me nuts! I'm sorry.
FYI - it's Mod Podge, not Modge Podge.
Lmao you're right I've been saying that wrong my whole life 😂
I wasn't expecting this to be about cutting craft foam. Also, it's MOD Podge. Not Modge Podge.
Yeah I know that now haha
I love the idea but the cuts the machine made are awful. There are a lot of ragged edges on the letters. Also, there was a strange humming sound every time you showed anything in Design space :(
I'm curious how the cuts would come out with the knife blade. You could also try cutting deeper with a custom setting. I think this technique could be perfected with a little more practice. I'm sorry about the annoying sound I have an issue with the screen recorder picking up the sound of my laptop fans running. I have a new mic coming soon. Thanks for your feedback!
Love this. Such a great work around for cutting wood on Cricut. I am never satisfied with the results of wood cuts. Thank you for sharing, this is life changing!!
You're welcome! Happy crafting! 😄
