Cricut Projects for Homemade Gifts
Cricut Projects for Home Gifts
cricket machine Makes it easy to add a personal touch to a handmade gift. For me, the highlight of the holidays are handmade gifts.
I love giving things that have an element of homework or a personal touch. Take each additional step to say, "I've thought enough of you to add my time to this hand."
Every year at Christmas, my children give each other homemade gifts. This shifts the focus from the gifts they want to receive to the gifts they want to give. It's such a beautiful part of the Christmas season that I just adore.
Buy cricket for the holidays or buy in advance and prepare something for the holidays!

Here are 10 gift categories for the perfect DIY Christmas gifts with Cricut:
#1 cup and bottle of water:
Everyone loves a cold water bottle or mug. Add some vinyl for the perfect personalization and make a great handmade gift! Here are two types of cups you can make:
personal vinyl glass
This project uses only a standard cutting knife and vinyl tape. Any lawn mower will handle this project. This is a great personal item that everyone will love.
Polymer glass with vinyl and glitter
Adding a custom vinyl to the glass is great... but adding glitter and resin is a plus! If you love adventure, give it a try!
Ink container #2 full:
Special mugs that are dishwasher safe and microwave safe are great! Perfect for a gift to a neighbor or teacher, paired with a box of hot chocolate and a gift card! Here are two types of infusible ink tanks! One uses a cricket mug press , while the other is in the oven.

The smooth surface of the T-shirt with non-melting ink is just awesome! It is machine washable and will never pill or pill. This t-shirt shows people how cool it is to make it at home! It should be made from 100% polyester for best results when working with non-melting paints.
