How Do You Make a Picture Frame With Cricut?

Making a picture frame with Cricut has never been easier! Cricut is an advanced electronic cutting machine that can help you create beautiful and intricate projects.

With Cricut, you can create custom frames for photos or artwork in any size or shape you desire. This guide will help you make your own picture frame with Cricut.

Step 1: Gather Materials
To make a picture frame with Cricut, you’ll need the following materials: a piece of wood, a Cricut machine, transfer paper, permanent vinyl, screws, and a drill.

Step 2: Cut the Wood
Using the measurements for your desired size of frame, cut the piece of wood to size. For this project, use either a hand saw or jigsaw.

Step 3: Design Your Frame

Using the Cricut Design Space software, design your frame. You can choose from hundreds of different designs or create your own. When finished designing your frame, click “Cut” to send it to your machine.

Step 4: Transfer Your Design

Place the transfer paper onto the wood and then place your design on top. Using an iron or heat press, transfer the design onto the wood.

Step 5: Peel Off Transfer Paper

Carefully peel off the transfer paper to reveal the transferred design onto the wood.

Step 6: Add Permanent Vinyl

Using permanent vinyl and an X-acto knife or scissors, cut out vinyl pieces that match up with your transferred design. Once cut out place them on top of your transferred design and press firmly into place using a scraper tool.

Step 7: Assemble Frame

Using screws and a drill attach all four sides of your frame together. Be sure to not overtighten as this could cause warping or cracking in your frame.

Once assembled, you’re ready to hang up your new custom picture frame!
