How Do You Make a Badge Reel on a Cricut?

Making a badge reel on a Cricut is an easy and fun craft project that anyone can do. Whether you are looking for a way to show off your company logo or just want to add some flair to your work badge, creating a badge reel on a Cricut is the perfect way to do it. A badge reel is essentially a card holder that attaches to a clip or lanyard, allowing you to easily access your ID without having to take it off and put it back on repeatedly. With the help of Cricut’s design software, you can create custom designs for your badge reels with ease.

The first step in making a badge reel on your Cricut is deciding what type of design you want. You can choose from pre-made designs or create one from scratch using images from the Cricut library or even upload your own artwork. Once you have chosen your design, you will need to cut out the pieces for the card holder. Most badge reels consist of two pieces that fit together like a puzzle – one piece for the front and one piece for the back. The pieces should be cut out of vinyl using the Cricut machine.

Once all of the pieces are cut out, they will need to be affixed together in order to form the card holder.

You can use double-sided tape or any other adhesive product that works with vinyl. Once everything is affixed together, you can then decorate it however you like using permanent markers or paint pens.

The next step is attaching the clip or lanyard to your badge reel so it will be ready for use. This can be done by either hand-sewing or hot gluing depending on which method you prefer. Once everything is attached, all that’s left is to insert your ID cards into their respective slots and enjoy!

Conclusion:

Making a badge reel on a Cricut is an easy and fun craft project that anyone can do with minimal supplies and tools. With its user-friendly design software, creating custom designs for your badge reels has never been easier! All that’s left after attaching all of the pieces together and attaching them to their respective clips/lanyards is inserting your ID cards into their respective slots – and voila! You have yourself an attractive and functional homemade badge reel.
