Convince me to buy a Cricut

[setlok73]

I have been looking at them for a few years but don't know if I'd really use it.  I'm rather craftsy but don't know what all I can do with them.

 

Any info is greatly appreciated.

I have an ancient model that's basically out of support. We bought a dozen cartridges, used most of them, and probably got what we paid for out of it all. I haven't used it in almost a decade now, but I would fully advocate for it at the time I was using it. I think the new ones are pretty slick with app and full design considerations to make your own, so that's another win.

I love my cricut. The best decision my friend ever talked me into. I make tshirts,ornaments, and a few other things. My favorite thing to make is my personalized elves. 
I have made more than enough to pay for my machine. I usually sell enough elves to pay for my Christmas. I have even made personalized water bottles and made enough to buy a car.

 

you should definitely do it

Things I've made with other people's cricuts because I don't want it taking over my space because I know it will:

1. Custom aprons for a team cooking event.

2. Custom t-shirts and ears for a conference at a Disney resort.

 

Things I would make:

1. Custom notebooks... custom everything if I could.
