How to Engrave Cookie Spatulas on a Cricut Maker

[@lisacano5234]

I'm glad that you leave the mistakes in. It is just as important.

[@JenniferMaker]

It is! We ALL make them! Especially me! ❤️

[@lisacano5234]

Me too!

[@rhondaandrus7481]

THANK YOU JENNIFER!!!!!! I watched your video twice! I learned how to ENGRAVE😁. I’ve had a Maker for about 7 months (previously had Air2) and I FINALLY made my very first engraving project. I engraved a spatula for a co-workers birthday 🎂. I am so excited how it turned out! You are the BEST!

[@JenniferMaker]

That is awesome, Rhonda! I'll bet your co-worker was just as excited as you!!! Great job! 😍

[@oliviadelauter2124]

Thank you so much for sharing a mistake instead of redoing this without a mistake. It really helps me learn.

[@JenniferMaker]

Thank you! I like to say that I make mistakes so you don't have to! 😁 I make mistakes every day. ❤️

[@cherylmorrison1751]

I have only used my engraving tip on leather, & was so happy to see something else I can use it on to learn. This would be a nice bridal shower gift, done on the knife & cake server for the wedding cake!!

[@JenniferMaker]

It would be an amazing, personalized bridal shower gift for sure! :)

[@thebeybladearmory]

You'll have to bend the blade on the knife so the handle bends up, that way blade will be flat

[@jimmiedenise6444]

Cheryl Morrison how thick of leather did you use to engrave? Thanks in advance.

[@OneStopTC]

The stacking of the images - OMG - your brain is awesome!!! Love this solution - Thank you!!!

[@JenniferMaker]

Awe...Thank YOU for being here!

[@sherylreed6535]

Loved your tutorial! I would love to see someone engrave a BBQ spatula/turner. Always looking for unique gifts for a man’s birthdays or Father’s Day.

[@JenniferMaker]

Ohh...that's a great idea for Father's Day!

[@mtblondie0036]

Thts wht I am trying to make a last min gift .but it the stainless steel is no longer highlighted and says not compatible rrggh .

Thanks so much for subscribing and welcome to my little crafty community! :) Too many amazing things to make! Such a good hubby you have! lol

[@mistymorris]

I love how you showed the reason for the mistake! It is so easy to understand. Thanks! 👏🏻

All of us make mistakes! 😂 That's how we learn! It's important for me to share my mistakes, so you will know that is just part of crafting and nothing to be upset about! 😁

[@joyannbutcher3786]

I've always wanted to use my engraving tip. Now I will have a go. Was so unsure, now I feel more confident thanks to your tutorial.

[@JenniferMaker]

Yay! I hope you enjoy engraving as much as I do! :)

[@lindajohannesen6035]

WOW! thank you, I would have never tried this and the fact that you also included the templates for the servers is a bonus. I learn something new from you everyday!

[@JenniferMaker]

Thanks for watching Linda! It truly means a lot! Hope you enjoy the templates! :)

[@teresawebster6822]

OMG...Thank you for sharing this!!! Now I can give that tool a try...I've had it 3 months and it has intimidated me until now!! Thanks for great tutorials.

[@JenniferMaker]

YAY! SO glad you are going to try it out! It's so easy! I promise!

[@amandainglet5481]

This is such a great tutorial! Thank you! And thank you for showing your mistake! I would have absolutely made that mistake (and may still make it) if you hadn't shown how it went wrong. Fantastic tutorial-I just got my Amazon order of cake servers and can't wait to begin! Thank you!!

Thank you so much Jennifer for these videos. You made my neighbor gifts this year with your very clear and wonderful tutorials.. I did hot mitts with vinyl with matching engraved spatulas. So excited.

[@suewright8426]

Oh man Jennifer! I just want to make these first for my niece, Macie. She's getting married on September 2nd, 2022. I know she'll be excited with these as she loves to bake. Also, I can see many presents with these as well. Thank you so much! You make it all seem so easy.

[@joyceburton8208]

Thank you for sharing what went wrong. Sometimes that's more important than anything else because you'll know what you did wrong and how to fix it. THANKS!!!! I love the project

[@JenniferMaker]

Thank you! I think it's important to let everyone know that we all make mistakes but it's okay because mistakes can be fixed :)

Cookies go with every project! Cool project.

Jennifer Maker I think so. 🙂 I just finished a couple of masks from your patten and they came out great!

[@debbiewhitmore1876]

I haven't bought the engraving tip because I couldn't imagine what I'd use it for. Now I know! I love these. I will be ordering the tip and some spatulas tonight for Christmas gifts. Thanks so much, Jennifer.

[@JenniferMaker]

Yay! Happy engraving Debbie!

[@Fatyaqui]

Hi Miss Jennifer, I've been watching all your videos and I happened upon this video about engraving with a Cricut. Just recently I purchased a Cricut Maker and I have been making my own custom facemasks for friends and family. It's fun and hard work but the main thing that attracts me about the Cricut Maker is the engraving feature. I'm going to try your technique. Thank you for sharing and keep up the great work. Love your videos.

[@JenniferMaker]

You are so welcome! 😍

[@SherylsDollsandEverythingElse]

I’m so glad I watched your video, as I just purchased spatulas and was going to engrave them without knowing that I should triple my design to get a deeper sharper engraving. Thank you! Thank you! Love your videos, blog and e-books; priceless!

[@JenniferMaker]

YAY! Happy to help! Thanks so much for being here!

[@cathypeters4563]

Wonderful tutorial! I'm among the rest who bought the tip and then wondered what to use it for. And another who high fives you for leaving the mistake in your tutorial for us to learn by. Thanks, Jennifer!

[@najasstaslays3094]

So I can engrave stainless steal stamping blanks😮I was told it was no where near strong enough to engrave stainless steel...Super excited now😝😝😊

[@JenniferMaker]

The only stainless steel I have tried, besides these cookie spatulas, have been mason jar lids, shown in this post from our blog! So I can't tell you how stainless steel stamping blanks would work - the galvanized steel I tried at the end of the post did not look good at all, but that doesn't mean blanks wouldn't! It would be worth a try! 🥰

[@najasstaslays3094]

@@JenniferMaker Worth the try...Quick question I have been trying to engrave on aluminum dog tags and it keeps moving even with double sided tape holding it to the mat as well as painters tape all along the edges...Maybe the font im using? And would also know if u have came up with a free way to make it fill in the letters with a hatch fill? Have been doing alot of looking but u always come up with the absolute best ways for everything thats why ur channel is the first I go to when looking😊

Make sure the linetype is set to engrave in Design Space and you have Maker chosen for your machine. You could try a buffing/polishing cloth.
