What is a Cricut?

A Cricut is similar to a printer, only instead of printing ink to paper,  you can cut and draw items out onto various materials like construction  paper, vinyl stickers, leather, and fabric.

Small portable machine making it easy to grab for quick projects. ( I also got a carrying case which makes it even easier to grab and store)

 Bluetooth Technology – I love that I can work from the app on my  phone or my computer, and I don’t have to plug the machine into it.

Cons of the Cricut Joy

The size can be a draw back if you are trying to make larger items.  Even something like a doormat you can not have anything taller than  about 5 inches.
