[@Cricuter]

I love all my Cricut machines! I started with the Explore Air 2, built my own business, upgraded to the Maker, then got the Joy, and then started my own KZbin channel. The possibilities are endless with Cricut!

[@queenrae91]

Was it hard for you when you first started?

[@desilake5776]

Hello, did you prefer Air 2 or Joy 🙏

[@Cricuter]

@@desilake5776 The Air 2 is way better than the Joy!

[@lolalankard1540]

I love how real you are! I’ve confused myself with watching so many different videos that ASSUME that a person knows “stuff”. Great job explaining, thanks.

[@marlenedial4418]

This was an awesome video. I just bought my mine 12/4/2020 with a 3 year protection and tax I got it for Black Friday price at total $175.37!! I’m so excited 😆. This is my first cricut ever. It’s for hobbies and crafts to make and sell. And this video just made me more excited 😜 that I purchased this. So keep the videos coming. Thank you for sharing.

[@ruraloffthehighwayfarm727]

This is the best unboxing and how to start up Cricuit Explorer Air 2 I have viewed. I recently purchased a new machine and have been scouring You Tube for how to videos. Thank you so much for your thorough and methodical presentation!!!!

[@jentucker340]

Just got my Air Explore 2 for Christmas from my kids. I am so excited to get started. Your video is really helpful. You have a great screen presence. One thing is like to see is a close up when you’re doing fine work. I am hitting the subscribe button right now. Thanks!

[@denisepoirier8908]

I’m so glad I watched before opening my Cricut! Loved it!

[@stephanieclaeys8378]

Thank you for this video I learned so much! It's a bit overwhelming when trying to look for tips and tricks on where to start! I appreciate this video! :)

[@lyoung8002]

Thank you for this video. Just ordered mine and this was informative. Can't wait to get started having fun! Look forward to more videos from you.

[@janicelanier8592]

I’ve had my cricut for a while but didn’t know what to do with it. This is the first clear video that I’ve seen. This has been a big help. Thank you.

[@DesignBundles]

Hey Janice! We're so glad you found us! We have live tutorials each Monday at 3pm EST! We hope to see you there! 😊

Thank you for Sharing this video! I just got my cricut for Christmas, cant wait to start my projects!

[@evelynquinones7683]

I just got my cricup, why do I feel overwhelmed. So intimidating... does anyone else felt or feel like this? I don't have a computer, but I do have a tablet and a Samsung notebook phone. Can I use that instead of a computer?

[@angygonzalez6639]

Yes, I have a tablet and i just got me cricut and you need to use bluetooth. Just look in KZbin on how to do it. I'm kinda scared to use mine because my mom said she lost the receipt and I dont want to ruin it.

[@DesignBundles]

Hey Evelyn and Angy! Yes you can use the mobile app and the very best thing you can do for yourself is jump in. If you are cutting cardstock and adhesive vinyl, you (virtually) cannot break the machine. A few bad cuts will be just a drop in the bucket to all the awesomeness you will learn! ---Becky

[@waitiwaita6993]

i am so the same. Got everything but my printer but yes veeeeeeeeeery scarey

[@islaguahan6634]

I’ve had mine for 2 months and haven’t even set it up because it seems so overwhelming😂

My cricut is sitting under my Xmas tree at the moment lol. I have been watching all kinds of videos and so far this is by far the best one I have seen. Thanks for sharing.

[@ZymixProductions]

I don't you were supposed to know what was under the Christmas tree. That's not nice. I don't think Santa will be too happy.

[@whitneydominguez123]

Currently in your situation. Cricut sitting under tree watching tutorials lol why is this so scary haha

[@Craftybowladychannel]

Thanks for that great introduction! You were very helpful!! I just purchased this Cricut Air 2.

[@ashleycudmore8970]

got an explore air 2 for christmas and love all your videos! super helpful

[@madalyn3597]

I just got one for my birthday and I love it so far.

[@BeyondTshirts]

The mint color is beautiful! My grandson and his wife have a Cricut and they surprised us with one of our own for Christmas!

[@kimandrarobertson-mowles4080]

I have to agree with Evelyn. Feeling totally out of my depth. I'm an older lady and computers are not at the top of my easy peasy list. I think I would have felt a great deal more comfortable with a written instruction book as well as these videos. So glad I found this otherwise I might have ended up with a very expensive space taker. Still lots of things that make no sense to me. Hoping it gets clearer.

[@DesignBundles]

It will definitely get clearer the more you play with it. Feel free to ask your questions here, and also our Facebook group: facebook.com/groups/192859435768879 Hope this helps! ---Becky

[@user-ys9fm6hh4t]

Great video! My sister was gifted one of these a few years ago and it has never left the box. We are cracking it open this weekend and your video was very informative.

Got one of these today. Thought I'd come on KZbin for some insights. Might I add you spoke really well and I understood everything. Thank you for this video

1st tip is valuable. I bought one from Walmart. Noticed it leaked something out of box. Opened it up it was full of hair and something spilled all inside it. I sat all night waiting on 6am to return it worried to death. Exchanged for one the blade wasnt round and destroyed.

I purchased mine in October but haven't touched it yet. i'm scared. but after watching your video, you made it look so easy. so next week, i will try it.

[@lindacline3437]

You are the first person with common sense to explain this machine .... lol. I am trying to see if this machine will do what is needed for our business instead of outsourcing the work. This looks like something I could also get a lot of home use out of (my OCD is thinking of all the thinks I could make labels large enough for us seniors to read). I might also be able to make some customized gifts for the grandkids and others. Thanks for making this make sense. I just subscribed to your channel. 😊

Oh! You got the same bundle I did. I made a couple of fun things with that embossed paper. It's double sided so you can make an envelope with the embossed part on the inside (to match a card!) and I made boxes for coasters. I've only had it about a month and I really love it. Enjoy! PS - I love your videos. :)

Don't worry, most bundles come with extras that you don't really need. I personally recommend beginners to start with Oracal 651 adhesive vinyl as it's usually inexpensive and easy to use. Hope this helps! ---Becky

Hey Grammy! You should have an icon on the left side of your Canvas that says Text. You will just type the text that you want and then you can change the font using the toolbar at the top of your screen (I do this after typing my text). Hope this helps! ---Becky

[@DesignBundles]

Congrats on the new Cricut! There are different packages at different times, both seasonally and then based on retailer. I wouldn't worry too much about the extras in my bundle, most of the time you get a better deal and better quality materials buying the machine individually and then visiting your local vinyl store (if you have one) as they are usually a tremendous help in choosing beginner materials. Hope this helps! ---Becky
