Hey! Want some easy Cricut projects for this year? Today, I have a list of Cricut projects that are easier than ever. Also, I received many comments on my previous blog, and many readers wanted me to write on Cricut projects for beginners. Hence, I decided to pile up all such projects without a second thought.

So, what will you find in this blog? Well, I have included 10 easy beginner Cricut projects. They are all very different from each other and may require additional resources to make. But do you know that all projects have one thing in common? You guessed it right! It’s a Cricut machine. Without a craft machine, the projects I mention below would be impossible to create.

Hence, grab your Cricut, search for your favorite projects, and make them using different materials and blanks. You will find everything from personalized shirts to keychains in this post. Now, let’s dive in!

1. JAR LABELS

Want some easy Cricut projects? Here are the labels that I created with my Cricut Joy. This is the best idea I can give you if you are a beginner and want to make something easy. This project hardly consumed my time, so I created something useful for my kitchenware. My mom also loves these labels as they help her find the necessary items instantly. So what are you waiting for? Give it a try, and let your mom find the required items immediately.

2. HAPPY BIRTHDAY ACRYLIC SIGN

Every year, we have to celebrate our loved one’s birthday. Why don’t you create something using your Cricut? This will add more love and value to your celebration. As you can see in the picture above, I made this on my grandma’s 60th birthday. And I remember when she asked me to make something on her birthday using my Cricut. She was excited and happy when I got her this birthday acrylic sign. If you want, you can make these signs in advance for upcoming loved ones’ birthdays.

3. PERSONALIZED MUG

Personalizing a coffee mug is the best gift idea for all age groups. This is easy and simple to make. Also, you don’t need so much of materials to create this amazing mug. I have only used my Cricut Mug Press and the sublimated Cricut mug. The poly-coated mug works well with vinyl material.

Simply put, vinyl cannot adhere to any mug. Therefore, you will need a mug with a sublimation coating. In short, easy Cricut projects mean personalized mugs because they are easy to create and are considered the best for gifts.

4. COASTERS

Do you want to create personalized coasters for your office or home? All you need is infusible ink and Cricut coasters. But wait, you need something! This is nothing but a Cricut machine. Yes, you get that right! A Cricut machine is required to cut your intricate design. Besides, use colorful or single-colored vinyl to transfer it to your coasters blank.

5. HOLOGRAPHIC CRICUT VINYL WATER BOTTLES

My children and I love personalized bottles. But our happiness doubles when they are made of holographic Cricut vinyl. This vinyl works like a cherry on the cake! It gives the bottles a gleam and appeal that no one can ignore. So if you are planning to make something similar, then I would suggest you choose a dark-colored bottle, as I have chosen a black bottle. However, try sky blue or light pink if you want a little lighter. Since we all use water bottles, I love making such easy Cricut projects every year.

6. T-SHIRT

Want to make something beautiful for your mom? Whether it is her birthday or you want to make her feel special, you can make this simple vinyl T-shirt with the text ‘Blessed Mama.’ In addition, this top-notch quality cut of the Cricut cutting machine will give it a professional look on the T-shirt. So, don’t wait; try this today, as you don’t want to miss a chance to see her smiling.

7. DOG PAW STICKERS

Stickers are simple and easy beginner Cricut projects. All of us make stickers for personalizing our diaries or journals. I use them in my planner, too. But wait! Here, there is something different. Recently, I created new paw stickers for my dog’s kennel. I wanted to personalize my dog’s home. But it doesn’t matter what type of stickers you are making; making such easy Cricut projects is always effortless.

8. KEYCHAIN

Now, you can also personalize your key chain using acrylic and vinyl. You can transfer the vinyl design made with your Cricut machine to acrylic. However, the key chain I created in the above picture is not made with acrylic but faux leather. Previously, I created many acrylic keychains, but I craved something different this time. Thus, I created a leather-based key chain and used vinyl to make it personalized.

9. GIFT CARD HOLDER

Have Cricut but have yet to try this paper gift holder? If so, you must give it a try! This card holder can be used for special occasions such as weddings, birthdays, or festivals. I created this holder using my handy Cricut Maker and cardstock. I don’t know why, but I love making things on cardstock because cutting them on a Cricut seems interesting. Anyway, if you are interested in making this Cricut project, you should never hesitate.

10. BUTTERFLY BIRTHDAY CARD

Making such a birthday card using an insert card is my favorite one. The insert card gives it a unique and gleaming look that I love. My cutie, the small Cricut Joy, helped me so much in making this easy card. So try this card for your loved ones’ birthday and send them to bring a smile to their face. Also, you can modify the design easily on your Cricut Design Space. Try this on Cricut Joy and add joy to your celebration.

FINAL WORDS

In this blog, I have included 10 easy Cricut projects that are simple as well as unique to create on a Cricut cutting machine. So, whether it is jarring labels or butterfly birthday cards, the Cricut does everything you need. Besides, these projects are those that I created when I was a beginner, so they will be useful for you as a beginner. However, if you want to add your creative touch, you are free to do so.

Howdy, I’m Robert. I’m a software engineer living in Columbus Delaware Ohio. I am a fan of technology, DIY, and crafts. Cricut offers high-tech digital die cutters for cutting complex designs quickly with high precision. It also offers various incredible features for cutting a wide range of materials. However, the software, i.e., The Design Space app, is used as companion software for all Cricut cutting machines. So, when you buy the machine for the first time, you will need to set it up with the Design Space app. In contrast, the app can be downloaded from the website cricut.com/setup.
