Stumped for what to get the crafty person who loves to give handmade gifts on your list? Our Cricut Holiday Gift Guide has ideas that are guaranteed to impress.
This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Cricut. The opinions and text are all mine.
What do you get the person who loves giving handmade gifts? Incredible tools and materials so that they can craft all year long! Finding the perfect gift for everyone on your list can be challenging, so I’m here to help make your Christmas shopping a little bit easier for you!
I love to craft and nothing makes me happier than giving a handmade gift and seeing the look on the recipients face when they open their present. I think it can be intimidating for “non-crafty” people to give “crafty people” presents, especially when you know that person’s going to give you something handmade in return. I’m here to tell you, that some of my favorite things to get as a gift is fun new craft supplies that I’ve never used before!
My Cricut is my very favorite craft thing in my entire craft room. I use it multiple times a week (sometimes every single day). It’s the ultimate gift for someone who loves to give handmade gifts! I’m going to share with you my favorite Cricut gift ideas to give handmade gift givers in this Cricut Holiday Gift Guide! Enjoy!

The Cricut Explore Air 2 in raspberry makes for some serious Instagram worthy photos. This machine can cut over 100 materials and while it doesn’t work with the Adaptive Tool System Tools, with a price point lower than the Maker it’s an amazing cutting machine. Plus the pink is just so darn pretty!!! With the Explore Air 2 you can cut iron-on, vinyl, paper, and a ton of other speciality materials. Just think of all the amazing shirts, mugs and other handmade gifts you’ll get in the future if you give this machine to your favorite crafter!

The Cricut EasyPress 2 is essential for anyone who wants to make shirts, or wood signs using iron-on! The EasyPress 2 has exact temperature control, a timer and an even heat plate that you just don’t find with a traditional iron. It’s a heat press in a more compact form so that it doesn’t take up a ton of space in a craft room! The Cricut EasyPress 2 comes in 4 different sizes ranging from the EasyPress Mini which has a 3 inch heat plate all the way up to a 12 inch by 10 inch EasyPress. I love all the different sizes but the 9X9 has to be my favorite and this bundle comes with a great selection of “extras” to get creating with!

Speaking of leather, this blade is a must for cutting all the pretty jewelry and leather creations you want to make! I love that it comes with a black housing so that it’s easy to remember which blade you have inside so that you don’t mix up which blade you are cutting with.
