To re-stick your mats use a repositional glue stick. Rub it over the whole sticky area and let sit overnight. I've done this multiple times over on mats and it works perfectly and no mess!

@@cyndymartine2667 ZIG 2 way glue from Michael's. Get the fattest boldest tip. Once the glue is applied, let it it air out/completely dry before using so that the adhesive becomes repositional where you can apply paper later and it won't stick permanently. If you use it right away like put down cardstock on it too quickly before the ZIG glue dries, the glue becomes permanent, hence why it's called 2 way glue. Lots of videos on this. Good Luck!

I knew some of these but learned a lot of new ones! I have a hack to share for Cricut mats: - You shared saving the clear plastic to protect your mat from dust when it's not in use. For added protectuon against dust, place a sticker or some letters or even use a sharpie to write on the clear plastic at the top of your mat before you peel it off the first time. This helps to differentiate a front and back side of the plastic so the same side will always be against your mat when you replace the film. For those of you who hang up your Cricut mats, this also ensures the cutout in the top of the mat matches up with the cutout in the plastic. 😉 Happy crafting! Thanks for the tips and for your enthusiasm!

I have the pump bottles you mention because I am a Nail Tech by trade and I saw them and thought I could save some money from buying a more expensive pump for my 100% acetone for doing nails. I will say These pumps work great for nail polish remove her as long as you don’t use 100% acetone you have to use a some thing with less acetone. But I didn’t want to throw my pumps away a couple years ago so I saved them on the off chance that I could repurpose them and who would have thought I would get my cricut and join MGL and find out that I can re-purpose those pumps that I already had for my alcohol for cleaning projects. I was so excited to find out that I didn’t waste my money on them when I tested them with alcohol they work beautifully and have no issues like they did with the acetone 😊😊😊

Unfortunately, I neglected to change the setting for the font (which was a cut/and write) to DRAW and well lost an envelope because it tried to address it using the blade. oopsie.
