Why Cricut Makes a Great Gift!

I don't think it's any secret that I absolutely love my Cricut machines. That's right, there's an 's' at the end of that! I have a Cricut Explore Air 2 and a Cricut Joy and I adore them both for different reasons. The Cricut Joy is the newest one to me and today I'm telling you all about why it makes a great gift!

1.It's small but mighty

The Cricut Joy might be little, but it can do just about anything, including cut out banners, cards, iron-ons, and material up to 20 feet long! It's also incredibly easy to keep out for regular usage since it's so small and looks great on a shelf. I keep mine out so I can easily add labels to pantry items - no need for a label maker, the Cricut Joy does it all for me!

2.It doesn't need a ton of accessories

The Cricut Joy can cut without a mat, so you can literally insert your material (vinyl, paper, etc) and GO! It's so easy! Did I mention it also connects to your phone or computer via Bluetooth so you don't need to connect via USB? Yeah, plug this puppy in and you're good to go! You can see how I quickly made some toy bin labels for my kids using some removable vinyl!

3.Yes, it can print, too!

On top of being able to cut a multitude of materials, you can also print custom designs or labels with the Circut Joy! The best part is being able to do both - add a marker and print, then quickly switch to a blade for cutting. Easy peasy! You can see how I've done this with some DIY pantry labels!So there you have it - some great gifts you can make with your Cricut Joy, or better yet, gift a machine to someone you know would love to have the freedom to create at the drop of a hat!
