I have the Explore Air 2, but I would love to have the Maker. Maybe someday. I am so addicted to my Cricut. I spend hours making signs, shirts, cups and koozies. I did not know that the Maker would engrave. That just makes me want one more. lol
Designed to the Nines I would choose the Cricuit Maker, what a versatile machine. I had no idea these machines could do so much! On another note, I have been using your stencil tip of painting the base color first, what a difference in my stenciling! Thank you for all your great ideas and tips.
I have the first cricut, I like it but It is old and I’m limited to one cartridge. I am on a limited income and I can’t get one. I hope some day I will be able. To get one.
Thanks to you I had the confidence to purchase my first tools!!! As soon as the hubby and kids leave tomorrow I'm getting them out to make my first project.
I bought the original cricut years ago, last year for an adult Bible school project, I bought the Air 2 and the heat press. I love it, however my son and his friends, who are all teachers, enjoy it more! As a matter of fact, I took some left over 1x4s wood glued them together, added hooks, and used vinyl lettering to make a Father's Day gift for my husband. It was a hat rack and says "HOME is where DADDY hangs his HAT." It was from our dog Max, because the kids got him a new set of pots and pans! I've been wanting to tell you, I am being taught to use all my husband's power tools, my brother passed away last year and told everyone I want my brother's power tools. After finishing my design studio, now I am going to build a bigger shop to house all these inherited power tools. THANKS FOR ALL THE INSPIRATION and CONFIDENCE, you pass along to me in your videos.
I have both the The Cricut Maker and the Cricut Explore Air 2. I honestly only use my Maker now and love it. Once again another great tutorial. Every time I watch your videos I go and get another tool...lol Thank you for such great ideas.
I have had older Cricut machines. It was my introduction to the vinyl cutting world. I had the 1st generation & then the Cricut Mini. Both were not web based they used the cartridges...Yep...old!! 😂 I have had my Silhouette Cameo 3 now for 3 years & love it as well. I really like them both. The things they can do now is A-mazing!! Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge with us!! 💕👍🏻😉
Wow, tough choice. I wouldn't be choosy if someone wanted to give me one, but if I was to purchase one, I'd probably choose the Explore Air 2. Your guidance makes it look so easy and I'll be sure to re-watch your videos if/when I finally get one. Thanks for sharing your talents with us, NataLee.
So cute, I used to work at an engraving shop, and I remember the engraver used a chemical to oxidize the letters to turn them dark so they would stand out more. These are so fun!
I would definitely choose the Cricut Maker. The engraving was soo cool! The canister was such a great idea. The bakery sign and the beauty saying we’re awesome too. Great job explaining all of the Cricut products!💗
I’ve never owned any of these machines but would love too. The Cricut Joy seems to do what I would need or the Cricut Air. God bless you 🙏🏼 I just love everything you create!! 💜
I considered buying one about a month ago to start doing some home projects, but yes, I am absolutely intimidated. I want to make some of your great signs, especially the Easter and 4th of July. This really helped to allow me to at least see the differences. Thank you again, such great help!
I have a Cricut maker, and still getting use to it! I love all the possibilities it gives me!! I always look forward to your video every week! Love all of these ideas! Gonna have to order some miter shears...
So this is how a lot of everybody (esp on Etsy) is engraving!! I didn’t realize Cricut makes engraving ones too! Wow!! Yay you covered the Explorer Air 2! I’m embarrassed to say it’s still in my box. 🙈 I need to tackle how to use it. Thank u for the encouragement!! I always wanted one n now that I do I don’t know where to start. Opening the box would be a good start. ☺️Thank you for showing us how to do vinyl! I had no clue. This was so informative. The JOY is adorable! I’m so happy they sponsored you!! Well-deserved!! 🙌🏻 Awesome video!! 💜🦋💜
I got the miter shears from Santa and love them! These dupes are amazing NataLee and the newer Cricut machines make me drool! The Maker seems like an amazing machine and the joy would be nice for smaller projects for sure (& portable is nice for visiting friends and family to help them with projects). Thanks for sharing your amazing DIYs and I hope you have a wonderful weekend. 🤗 #kindnessmatters
THANK YOU so much for doing this! I have been trying to figure my Explore Air 2 out and couldn’t get the stencil thing! I had to keep backing up and playing 😂 but I finally got it! The only thing I couldn’t get was the little green things at the bottom of my square to make a rectangle so mine kept the square but I’m going to keep playing with it and see if I can figure it out! You made it so much easier and I swear it was so intimidating to start using it that it has sat for 1.5 yrs!
I'm so glad! To make so you can make a rectangle and not just a square, there is a little lock button at the bottom of the square that you can lock and unlock by clicking on it... if you unlock it, you can turn it into a rectangle. Thank you for pointing that out for me, so I can be more cognizant of that in my explanations. =)
I have all three machines too and love them. I started out with what was called the Baby Bug, Cricut has stepped up their game since the Baby Bug. I think Cricut has made their machines very user friendly, so crafting is very easy. I love your projects, they look amazing and very much like the original's from Magnolia! Loving the twine holder, just may have to try that one myself. As far as which machine I would choose, well, you know I chose all three. lol I always tell people to get the best technology they can afford. But really one can't go wrong with any of these 3 machines. Hugs, Brenda
WOW!! I did not know the maker Ingraved I clearly did not do my homework when came down to buying a circuit I think at the time I was so excited I told my hubby I wanted one to make some things for my daughters wedding well he bought the Knew model at that time which was the expressions 2 well needless to say I was very much intimidated I opened the box but the blade in and that was it so fast forward to 4 years later I buy the explore 2 (I bought it) 🙊 and it’s so easy anyone could do it I luv that I make all my projects from my Apple device so know I guess I will have to decided on the maker or the Joy 😂🤔 buy I luv this Joanna Gaines dupe!!! I luv watching u create knew ideas...I’m def going to have recreate this 💜😍😘
I would like either one! Does the Cricut Maker do more than the other two? I love your Bakery sign and the Seek Beauty. Thank you for sharing this video!!!
@@designedtothenines I have had fantastic results with contact paper. I have been doing it that way for a couple years now. Elyisha English has some great tutorial s on her Chanel with tips and tricks as well.❤️❤️ Love your ideas and appreciate all your hard work you put in for us.
I think YOU and HOT HUMBLE PIE and oh my goodness, I'm having a brain freeze right now!! I cannot think of her channel name!! I'll come back and tell you but my point is you all have got to do more videos than you do!! lol I just love ya'll and I check back and wait for watch yours!! Awesome ladies!!
@@designedtothenines Thank you! Oh my goodness!! Yes, yes and yes!! She is wonderful. She does a lot of farmhouse which is a bit different than you but she is so very talented!! You have to watch some of her videos!! You will seriously just love the talent she has. You both amaze me!! I thought I was good until I saw you two!! Goodness gracious!! You two blow me away!! Be safe and God bless always! xo
I just love you and all your different type videos. You need to come up with your own "name", you're so talented and experienced. You're always referring to doing something like "Joanna Gaines". As I said you need a name for yourself, as you are just at smart, talented, experienced and sweet. And you introduced so many things we"ve never heard of doing, or how, or what to use. You're a fabulous instructor and you need recognition for the numerous different things you do. I'm very serious about this. You should be on HGTV because you're so much better than some who are on there and have been for sometime. The hacks you've introduced has saved me so so much time, work and money. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. I recognize you above so many and I appreciate all the time you've given to us to each us so very much. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Your friend, Linda from Texas.
So funny, as this video popped up in my feed I has just created a project in Design Space and was getting ready to cut it 😂 only I’m using the infusible ink transfer pages and markers on this project 😁 I have an Explore Air 2, though knowing what I know now I would have gotten the Maker when I was given the choice 😂 it can just do more
Designed to the Nines very true. The only thing I’ve wanted to do that can’t is engraving- and evening that hasn’t been a need to (and if it was I have a friend who got a maker 😂) definitely one of the best Christmas presents I’ve gotten (close tie to the Instant Pot I got the same year 😂)
I love the quote picture also. I would love a Cricut Joy!! I woul lo the Shears. WoW!!! I will never be able to own 1. Shucks. It is what it is!! God Is Great though. Love ya Nat!l
I have a Silhouette Cameo, Silhouette Curio, and a Brother Scan n Cut. I purchased a Silhouette because at the time Cricut was still using cartridges. I liked that the Silhouette software was on the computer. Also, the software is pretty intuitive. The Curio came along because I liked the idea of dual holders and the cutting, stippling, engraving, embossing features. Alas, I regret the Curio purchase, only because I don't use those features very often. It isn't going anywhere though. The Scan n cut came along because I am a paper crafter, and the Scan n Cut can scan in stamped images and cut around them. Significantly saves me $$$ - no dies needed. Also, the Scan n Cut has an auto blade, meaning the machine detects the thickness of the material. No need to adjust the blade or tell the machine the material that you are using. I LOVE that feature. All three do a great job on vinyl too. I am a new subscriber to your channel. I have a lot of videos to catch up on! ☺️
Nat I LOVE THE SIGN. IT IS AMAZING!! I NEED 2 PLEASE, LOL OR NOT LOL.... I am intimidated. Oh but I would love one in that mint green. I love the Green can. Love Love Love Everything. Love your hole puncher. You re so blessed. I am just blown away. Spechless.... In Awe.... you really can do it all. I wish you an few other DIYERS Would have like. A Week where we could learn how to do Some amazing DIY'S! Does that make sense? Anyway that would be so AMAZING A DIY getaway. I would be so grateful and humbled and happy to learn how to use power tools and especially the Cricut that can do it all. I would be grateful for just 1. Anyone. Love ya Nat! You are just AMAZING and BLESSED and OH SO TALENTED! ❤❤😊🙋♀️
@@designedtothenines Thank you so much. That's why I love you and your channel. There's always try help, great DIY'S and you're a great host. Ty again!!
Lady, I just made two sofa tables, but my daughter bought me the cricut maker for mothers day and it's sitting in the original box. I'm not intimidated.....much! I am not good with computers. Lol
Oh Natalee I was completely intimidated with my Cricut too but as you said go play and it becomes easy to use and now I can’t stop!! Loved the bakery sign and I’m placing an order for my mitre shears too. Thank you for the video 👏🏻
Please don't be intimidated by the cricut!! If you learn to use it....you'll get nothing else done, lol seriously this is so much fun! It's like Oprah with the car give away....everyone at my house is getting something done with a cricut this year!
I would get the Mac Daddy if I could afford it. I have palsy and it's been a struggle all my life especially because I'm an artist. Seems to get worse the older you get boohoo huh. When I was young and studying art no one would ever want to sit by me and the art teacher would make me sit in the back of the Class by myself. Isn't that terrible. Maybe that's why I became a teacher cuz I never wanted to be that kind of a person. Oh God LOL why did I tell you all this
@@designedtothenines Thank you for saying that. I'm retired now but I was a special education teacher. I don't know why I told you all that I think I've been in quarantine too long and I'm Lonesome LOL
Which Cricut machine would you choose? Like this episode? You'll love this one too! ua-cam.com/video/ozDDNcQgD00/v-deo.html
I have the Explore Air 2, but I would love to have the Maker. Maybe someday. I am so addicted to my Cricut. I spend hours making signs, shirts, cups and koozies.

I love my Explore Air 2! I'd love to be able to do engraving, but am happy with all I can do already. Thanks for such an informative video!
I have the Explore Air 2 but I want the other 2 also 😂 now that you have shown the way!
I have the first cricut, I like it but It is old and I’m limited to one cartridge. I am on a limited income and I can’t get one. I hope some day I will be able. To get one.
Hey Natalee! Awesome explaining of all the cricket products! I love joy! Your projects turned out super pretty! 💕💕
Thanks so much Antoinette! 😊
Thanks to you I had the confidence to purchase my first tools!!! As soon as the hubby and kids leave tomorrow I'm getting them out to make my first project.
Wonderful! Good luck with everything today! =)
Love how much they resemble Joanna Gaines product ! Great job !!

These stories made my day! Thank you for sharing them with me. Sorry about the loss of your brother. 💕
I have both the The Cricut Maker and the Cricut Explore Air 2. I honestly only use my Maker now and love it. Once again another great tutorial. Every time I watch your videos I go and get another tool...lol Thank you for such great ideas.
I just got my maker... I am worried I won't use the others as much now either, but they are still fun to have! =)
I have had older Cricut machines. It was my introduction to the vinyl cutting world. I had the 1st generation & then the Cricut Mini.

Wow, great presentation. I am definitely getting one. Thank you for sharing.
Glad it was helpful!
You make these projects so approachable! Thank you! Also for the great idea about the miter shears!! Ordered some tonight.
Thank you so much Wendy! You’re gonna love those miter scissors.💕
So cute, I used to work at an engraving shop, and I remember the engraver used a chemical to oxidize the letters to turn them dark so they would stand out more. These are so fun!
I should look into that. That sounds awesome. Thank you!
I would definitely choose the Cricut Maker. The engraving was soo cool! The canister was such a great idea. The bakery sign and the
beauty saying we’re awesome too. Great job explaining all of the Cricut products!💗
I can’t wait to discover what else the Cricut maker can do! Thank you so much my friend.💕
I’ve never owned any of these machines but would love too. The Cricut Joy seems to do what I would need or the Cricut Air. God bless you 🙏🏼 I just love everything you create!! 💜
THank you so much Angela!

Oh I’m so glad to help Ada! You can do it. Once you play around in the design studio and with it a little bit you get more comfortable very quickly.
I have been waiting all week for you to download a video.....Love Love Love your projects....Keep them coming....
Yay! Thank you! I took a little time off, but back at it! =) Thanks for your patience.

Thanks for the ideas!! I have a Cricut Maker and LOVE it!! 💖
Awesome! What is your favorite feature out of curiosity?
I don't have a Cricut yet but I will definitely be making the Bakery sign.
Awesome!! =)
Appreciate this one :). I have had a Cricut Explorer 2 for over a year, and have used it only twice. I am intimidated and I’m a computer person ;)
Oh don’t be intimidated by it! I promise if you start working around in the design studio you’ll get very comfortable and it will be fantastic. 💕
As always love everything. Thank you so much for always sharing your great tips. I have learned so much. 😘🙏🏻
I’m so glad Donna! Thank you so much for watching.☺️💕
I love the JOY!! I NEED 1. I NEED ALOT.

I couldn't agree with you more Brenda! Each machine is awesome in its own right. Thanks for watching!
WOW!!

Awesome!!💕
Great video!!!!
Thank you ☺️💕
I would like either one! Does the Cricut Maker do more than the other two? I love your Bakery sign and the Seek Beauty. Thank you for sharing this video!!!
Yes it does! Engraves metal, cuts thin wood, and embosses leather, cuts fabric without bonding etc. But the Air 2 is still awesome!
I have the cricut explore air and I love it!
They’re pretty amazing machines!💕
I don't own any of these....but I sure wish I did!!!! Start saving 💸I guess!!! Great job in explaining each one... Thank you 🥰
Thanks for watching!
Fabulous x x
Thank you!!!
Love your ideas! Tip: use dollar tree contact paper for stencils it's so much cheaper. 😉💓
Have you had good success with that? I’ve used regular contact paper as transfer paper.
@@designedtothenines I have had fantastic results with contact paper. I have been doing it that way for a couple years now. Elyisha English has some great tutorial s on her Chanel with tips and tricks as well.❤️❤️ Love your ideas and appreciate all your hard work you put in for us.

I'll come back and tell you but my point is you all have got to do more videos than you do!! lol I just love ya'll and I check back and wait for watch yours!! Awesome ladies!!
Channel is "Hot Humble Pie"; her name is Holly.
You are just the sweetest. Thank you. I'll have to check out her channel!
@@designedtothenines Thank you! Oh my goodness!! Yes, yes and yes!! She is wonderful. She does a lot of farmhouse which is a bit different than you but she is so very talented!! You have to watch some of her videos!! You will seriously just love the talent she has. You both amaze me!! I thought I was good until I saw you two!! Goodness gracious!! You two blow me away!! Be safe and God bless always! xo
WOW !! Did not know the maker cuts wood and engraves. I have a Cricut explore
I have had a ton of fun with both machines. 💕

Honestly, the Cricut Maker is really fun, but you can do an awful lot with the Air 2 as well. =) I love my Air 2.
Designed to the Nines very true. The only thing I’ve wanted to do that can’t is engraving- and evening that hasn’t been a need to (and if it was I have a friend who got a maker 😂) definitely one of the best Christmas presents I’ve gotten (close tie to the Instant Pot I got the same year 😂)

Thank you Tracy!
Where did you get stapler. Thanks. Great ideas!
There should be a link in the description box. I got it off amazon. =)
I wish I had somewhere to get classes. I bought an Air2 in Feb. but have not used it.🙄
Check out makers gonna learn and Jennifer maker… I think they do nothing but Cricut tutorials. 😃
@@designedtothenines Thank you so much. That's why I love you and your channel. There's always try help, great DIY'S and you're a great host. Ty again!!
It seems that buying the maker, you can do everything the others do and more? I'm trying to decide between the maker and the air 2.
I recommend buying the best you can afford!
Lady, I just made two sofa tables, but my daughter bought me the cricut maker for mothers day and it's sitting in the original box. I'm not intimidated.....much! I am not good with computers. Lol
Oh man!!! Get that out of the box lady! You got this... you will have so much fun!! =)
From your mouth to God's ears! Lol
Oh Natalee I was completely intimidated with my Cricut too but as you said go play and it becomes easy to use and now I can’t stop!! Loved the bakery sign and I’m placing an order for my mitre shears too. Thank you for the video 👏🏻
I am so happy to hear this Stazza! Hooray! 💕
Thanks to you 😊
Must find miter sheers!

I am using pirouette cookie tins in my laundry room. I found 3 different sizes
Awesome! I love it!
Please don't be intimidated by the cricut!! If you learn to use it....you'll get nothing else done, lol seriously this is so much fun! It's like Oprah with the car give away....everyone at my house is getting something done with a cricut this year!

I would get the Mac Daddy if I could afford it. I have palsy and it's been a struggle all my life especially because I'm an artist. Seems to get worse the older you get boohoo huh. When I was young and studying art no one would ever want to sit by me and the art teacher would make me sit in the back of the Class by myself. Isn't that terrible. Maybe that's why I became a teacher cuz I never wanted to be that kind of a person. Oh God LOL why did I tell you all this
I am so sorry about your health struggles. I bet you’re an amazing teacher though!💕

Thank you for saying that. I'm retired now but I was a special education teacher. I don't know why I told you all that I think I've been in quarantine too long and I'm Lonesome LOL

I know. Right?! I don’t know why they’re unsubscribing real people.
Looks so complicated...😩
