Cricut Crafts: Machine and Design Space 101

Do you own a Cricut Machine or are you curious about getting a digital cutting machine? In this class, we will first start by looking at the different types of Cricut machines and what they can do, so you can understand the capabilities of your machine better or if you are still trying to decide which one you want you will know better what the different machines can do. Look at the different tools, blades, and accessories that are needed for different types of projects. Then we will dive into Design Space (the Cricut application). Each participant will be provided with a guide and resource list highlighting different places to get supplies and cutting files that can be used with the machines. We will also do a project together in class making a keychain. After completing this class, you’ll have the skills and confidence to begin working independently on your Cricut machine or decide which machine is right for you!
