How Do I Make Ornaments With My Cricut?

Making ornaments with your Cricut machine is a great way to add a personal touch to Christmas decorations and other craft projects. Cricut machines are a type of die-cutting machine designed to cut out shapes and letters from paper, vinyl, fabric, and other materials.

Once you have all of your supplies ready, it’s time to create your design in the Cricut Design Space software. You can use pre-made templates or create your own custom designs using the tools available in the software. Once your design is complete, it’s time to cut out your shapes using the Cricut machine.

The next step is to assemble the pieces of your ornament together. Depending on the type of ornament you are making, this could involve gluing them together with fabric glue or ironing them together with interfacing. Once all of your pieces have been assembled, it’s time to add any other embellishments such as ribbons, buttons, beads, etc.

Finally, it’s time to hang up your ornaments!

If you used paper or vinyl for your project, simply use string or ribbons to hang them up on a tree or wall display. If you used fabric for your project, use hot glue to attach them to a looped piece of ribbon which can then be hung up wherever desired.
