Thank you at much! I was told the Air 2 couldn't cut faux leather and I would have to buy the maker. I'm so excited now!!
Canvas setting, more pressure was a life saver for my glitter faux leather. I was doing leather and it kept bunching. I did mine face up though.
Thank you so much for this. Ive only had my Cricut Maker for a couple weeks but was having os much trouble with the padded faux leather. I asked around and googled and even changed the faux leather pressure setting to higher setting. grr I just tried doing it with the felt settings and worked like a charm! Thank you so much !!
This was so helpful! I tried the thicker faux leather in light pink from Hobby Lobby, and my Cricut made a mess of the earrings! Can't wait to try again on the Felt, Wool Bonded setting. So happy I will be able to cut this thicker faux leather now. Thank you!
Thanks, Crystal! Love the detailed instructions about settings!
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I made these for Christmas gifts!
Thank you. Your video helped me get to grips with this as I was getting frustrated. The only thing I would add is that you don't need to get a new mat each time...they Don't come cheap in the UK. I use transfer paper underneath my leather....and wait for it...I reuse the paper until the tak has gone & also use blue painters tape or brown printers tape to secure the edges. Works a treat and even though my strong grip mat is more like a light grip now ....my faux leather holds in place.
Going to go try this out, Tysm for you comment!
Excellent start to finish tutorial. Love you sharing the best material settings. Thank you! Wishing you a super week. Hugs Susan
All the details were so helpful! Thank you so much!
Worked like a charm! Thank you.
i am brand new and trying to learn how to make these earrings! you make it look so easy! I subscribed to your channel
Thank you! Just got my cricut & I've struggled so much w the thicker faux material
Omg! I have been looking for a video like this forever!!! Thank you sooooo much!! 😍 i get tired of cutting with my scissors ✂️ I can finally do it on my machine! Lol 😆 thank you! ☺️
You are so welcome!
Thank you so much for this video! I’ve been wanting a Cricut, for vinyl and iron on... but also wanted to add some leather to my jewelry making... I was on the fence about which Cricut to buy, because I was worried that the faux leather was too thin. But after your video, I’m stoked about the faux leather!
Thank you so much for this my first time doing faux leather and I was so confused
Super awesome video, thank you!
Thank you, thank you!! So helpful!!!
Great tutorial~that helped me so much‼️ Thank you~
Your channel is the BEST besides Jennifer Maker ☺️💕💕💕💕. Thank you for sharing you wealth of knowledge ☺️💕💕💕
Thank you so much it means a lot to me 😍😍😍
Ty so much!!!! Just cut my first wristlet key chain.
Thank you so MUCH this video this help me out a lot.
I HAVE USED MY GREEN MAT MULTIPLE TIMES WITH MY FAUX LEATHER AND IT STILL WORKS LIKE A CHARM.
You are a lifesaver. Thank you from a new subie.
FINALLLYYYY!!!
I HAVE LITERALLY WATCHED 5 MILLION UA-cam VIDEOS, READ 74 BLOGS, RESEARCHED MY 9 CRICUT FB GROUPS, GOOGLED 9 BILLION 872 DIFFERENT WAYS TO ASK AND HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO CUT ANY OF MY FAUX LEATHER PROPERLY... UNTIL NOW!!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE AMAZING TUTORIAL. (ok I'm done shouting now, lol!) but seriously, thank you for being so detailed but yet straight to the point at explaining everything.
another issue I have though is my actual genuine leather. my boyfriend bought a bunch of leather scraps off amazon because they're not as flimsy as the faux leather but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to cut it. have you had any luck with genuine leather? :(
Same girl same 🤣
Update?
Deep cut blade?
Great video
So helpful!!
Interesting! I've been wanting to get the Cricut for faux leather earring making, and reviews say it doesn't cut. I think it's probably because they are using the faux leather setting for the thicker one! So thank you SO much for this video! It has definitely made me decide YES on taking advantage of the Black Friday sale on the Cricut machine! I have a bunch of punch out shapes and the hammer and plate - but it's SO loud and I live in an apartment building with thin walls. :o) Not great for making friends with neighbors! This will help in a huge way! Thanks again!
Thank you so much! I've seen so many videos advising me to use the "denim bonded" setting to cut chunky glitter but all of those people were using a Cricut Maker. Did you use the default pressure for the glitter?
TY TY TY TY RY I WISh I watch this first!!!! I am definitely going to try my fabric face down. I’ve been wasting fabric so I feel awful 🥲🥲 wish I’ve seen this before
I used transfer tape to stick the material to my purple mat, and taped it down and it still slides around when cutting. Any suggestions?
I'm rewatching and maybe need to try the felt setting?
Could you also use these selections on the Joy?
how do you cut out chucky glitter faux leather with a cricut. What setting do you use? I'm having trouble cutting it out. Im using a new purple mat and it doesnt want to work for me. Ive tried the canvas setting it starts to cut and then it stops working on me. I have a new blade in my cricut explorer air 2.
This has been the best video I learned so much would like to see how you finish the earringa
Do you put a backing on the earring.
I put down the dt "transfer tape" first so nothing sticks to my mat & also tape it down. Works like a charm every time ;)
super smart I need to try this thank you
CrystalAnn you're welcome love ♡♡
I have some leather that is shiny purple textured and has a soft fuzzy backing how do I cut it
i have this exact same cricut! i would love to make these! do i need to pay for cricut access?
What template do I use in Cricut design space to cut the earrings?
thank you
Can you use other brands of the purple mat or cricut only?
How did you use your phone for the circuit? Is it an app?
Hi Crystal, can I ask why you place the leather face down?
I've always wanted a cricut
My cricut will not cut the hobby lobby faux leather after following this step by step. Any ideas?
Are you just using the normal housing blade?
With Interactant details on the earrings I cannot get it to work...Basic shapes work fine. but when it goes over it twice it bunches it up, It sticks fine but bunches up when i try to do a butterfly or some kind of detail on it. What do you think the issue is?
Ive been cutting on a pink mat just fine
how do you use it from your phone?!?!?
What did you set your dial to on your machine? The dial above where the load/unload and Cricut button are.
You change it to custom, then all of the options will pop up on your phone/computer
Does it work with genuine leather?
I use the green mat with all material. I sometimes use adhesive spray on it. It always sticks. I’ve not had any material slide. I hope this helps someone.
Thank you for the tip
This will be my next try, everything foamy and glittered slides of, tried adjusting pressure , even tried the tips in the video and the settings, nothing has worked :(
I used my green mat to cut faux leather and it cut through my mat.
I cannot get my faux leather to stick to my brand new purple mat either!! I bought the same rolls as in the video too.
Hi Crystal, I have looked at Hobby Lobby, Michael's and Joanns, I cannot find the The Ribbon Boutique faux leather anywhere! I've tried looking online, too but haven't had any luck there either. Can you help me????
Mrs. Todd it’s actually by the ribbon in the fabric section not by the cricut and vinyl .. I had trouble finding it too
Emily624 is correct its by the ribbon
Do you know if I could place vinyl on the earrings?...like if I wanted to put a saying on them.
yes you can
Thank you 😊
I been debating to buy the cricut maker vs the air bc a lot people said that the air does not cut leather but I’m glad it does I’m soo excited to buy the air now I’m in a budget so that’s all I can afford for right now 😊
COULD YOU MAKE A VIDEO ON HOW TO ADD THE ACTUALY EARRING HOOK? THANKS
I used a brand new purple mat and the faux leather (rolls that you’re using from hobby lobby) won’t stick on either side. Any suggestions? I just got the Cricut Maker today
try your pink mat I know it sounds crazy but let me know how that works
Hi Crystal, I'm very new to the Cricut world and want to try these earrings; what do you use to punch a hole to add the earring hook and can you add one to have the cricut cut the hole? Thank you
You can have your Cricut cut the hole or I use the Crop A Dile amzn.to/37Eg2GC
I find a thick needle works as well!
What's the app called that you used to do your design.
She using the actual cricket app. You can find free leather earrings templates online. And upload them to the app to create designs.
I have the purple Matt and it still won’t stick brand new
For the faux leather
i have been having trouble making these. i have tried everything that people have suggested. heat n bond, contact paper, etc. I just tried this and it still isnt working for me with the thicker leather. My mat is the purple one. It is used. i just dont have the money to go and buy another mat right now. Would washing the mat and spraying some krylon easy tack on it work?
thats what i do casey i use strong tact adhesive spray and wash mat with dawn soap and have some probs depending on material making these it does raindrop shape great but when i do any detailed one its awful i have a new fabric mat and my purple used one with spray on it does better then my new fabric mat
Are you Changing your setting on the machine also? I'm confused please help
I think she’s leaving the dial set to custom. Then it prompts you to select the material cut. Hope that helps ☺️💕
@@MsCurliegirlie THANK YOU SOOO MUCH! This was a game changing comment that helped me so much! cheers!
Is there a reason why you cut it face down?
Does anyone know if the faux leather that you use on a silhouette machine can be used on the cricut 2 air
I didn't know silhouette had faux leather but I would say yes if it works with silhouette it will work for cricut
So you have to buy a new mat every time? 😰 or how do you make an old mat a fresh one? By cleaning it every time?
If you do have a deep cut blade, does the settings change?
I would only use it with the thicker material and that should help it cut all the way through :) same settings
Totally new to the Cricut world, can someone explain how I download the file/template she used? Is it free?
Hi Kayla. I’m new to this as well. I know for sure that you have to purchase cricut suscription to get access to some of their images and file. It cost $9.99/month. Or you can also buy svg from Etsy and download them.
Mujinga Mbuyi Thank you so much! ❤️
What is your dial set on ?
My guess is custom
What’s your dial thingy on tho
Probably custom
how big do you usually make your earrings?!
1.5 - 2 inches long
CrystalAnn thank you!!
I have a question i used my purple mate and made one set of earrings yeah!! But now i cant not get any more of the faux leather to stick to the purple mat am i doing something worng?
Dusty Buchanan did you find any solutions? Same thing is happening to me with a brand new mat and machine that I purchased today.
Use contact or transfer paper; put the sticky side on the bottom side of the leather and then place it on the mat
Not getting mines to cut
Where is the other video finishing the earring I can’t find it
ua-cam.com/video/s6WK3C29kH0/v-deo.html
i made earring and i do not like the way they look. They keep flipping to the white side and they feel really light weight. Aslo my cricut machine wouldnt cut through the Faux at all! IDK whats going on. I have the blade the cricut comes with
I cut doublepeices and glue them together so theres no white side
@@houseofbows what glue do you use?
Can't get your file
I tried this and its a mess, i just bought a purple mat and the material does not stick one bit 😕
Its a lot harder with anything other then the maker the rotary blade truly makes it a dream :) I wonder if the new purple spray from Thermo web would help here is the link www.thermowebonline.com/p/pixie-spray/new-products_pixie-spray?pp=24
I was having the exact same issue. It was a brand new mat, too, and now it has teardrop cuts all along the top. Ugh :) I did tape it down, and that allowed the fabric to stay in place. I managed to get a pair to try completing.
Thank you, i will check that out!
Tried everything exactly, and wont cut through my chunky glitter like yours.
I also did everything exactly how she did, on all three materials and nothing cut on any of them. ☹
When was the last time you changed your blade?!
I changed mine right before trying this tutorial, was freshly new!
I followed this one after trying multiple others. My problem is it is cutting through to my mat. Did you have this problem?
👀
I just clean my mats instead of buying a bunch
Too much talking.
