Travel may not be on the immediate horizon, but when the time comes, you’ll be ready. This project takes less than an hour to complete, making it ideal for beginners.

Get ready for spooky season with some tasteful-yet-still-macabre wall art. You’ll need a foil transfer tool to get the job done, but considering it costs roughly what you’d spend on one of these prints, we’d say it’s worth it.

Felt is trending big time this Halloween. Using a Cricut machine spares you from having to trace and cut every letter by hand, turning this project from tedious to totally doable.

If you can’t find the design you like, make it yourself.

Consider this your excuse to try out the engraving tool. Just don’t be surprised if all your friends start requesting custom orders. (Hey, the holidays are coming.)

Tailgate season is upon us, so why not create a cornhole game in your team’s colors?

If you’re in need of a last-minute, low-effort costume—or simply something to throw on during your office’s Halloween Zoom call—look no further. Eye candy, at its finest (and easiest).

Your kid keeps begging you to shell out $5 or more on a single sticker, because everyone’s customizing their water bottles these days. For the cost of two stickers, she can create dozens of her own designs.

No one will believe you made them yourself; you won’t believe how quickly you made them.

Ever since coordinated holiday pajamas became a thing, parents have gotten into a frenzied rush to hunt down everyone’s exact sizes before they sell out. Skip the mayhem and just DIY.

Upgrade your everyday tote with a custom tassel. (Just make sure you’re using the Cricut Maker series, which can handle cutting faux leather.)

Because no parent wants to face the “should we take the door off its hinges when we move?” dilemma after spending years chronicling their kids’ growth.

No one will notice your orchid’s looking a little, uh, sluggish with this statement planter. OK, maybe it won’t be the first thing they notice.

Technically, you don’t even need a Cricut to pull this off—just the iron-on vinyl—but it will make the project a lot easier (and quicker).

Give the front door your own seasonal spin, all in one afternoon.

Give a boring stainless steel water bottle new life with some ombré adhesive vinyl and a little (Cricut-assisted) cutout.

You’re already going all out on your kid’s nursery. Might as well have hangers that make you squeal just as much as those teeny tiny onesies.

Your lattice weave skills are lackluster—so what? Dusting confectioners’ sugar over a stencil creates for an equally impressive pie. And we dare say it’ll be more of a conversation starter too.

Malls now have kiosks and entire stores devoted to intricately designed pop-up cards…that can easily set you back $20 a pop. With a Cricut, it’s surprisingly easy to make your own.

Outdoor rugs are great, but if you want something with a little more character, use your Cricut to create large-scale stencils and paint your floors.

Teach the weather, days of the week and more with this interactive learning board. (Psst: You could also riff on this idea to create a chore or potty training chart at home.)

In less than two hours, you can have a mod game that looks like you bought it from Maisonette. Even better, it’s the sort of toy your kids will play with again and again (giving you a few moments to yourself).
