The best kind of gift is a handmade gift! I love to create something completely unique for family or friends and if you have access to a Cricut machine there are endless possibilities of gifts you can create.
You can even make your own tags and gift wrap to go with them!
(I made these gift tags using Cricut Foil and my Cricut Foiling Tool)
So what could you create? I’ve rounded up just a few ideas below to give you some inspiration for gifts you can make with Cricut.
1. Personalised Mug: I will never tire of making mugs for my own collection, and to give to other people! The design possibilities are endless – going personalised with a named design is always a winner, or you could add a cute pattern (I have loads of options on my Cricut Design Space profile!) or choose a sassy quote to make them smile every time they make a morning cuppa!
If you have a Cricut Mug Press, making mugs with Cricut Infusible Ink is super simple, or if not, you can use your Cricut machine to cut your favourite design onto vinyl. I’m warning you though, mug making is highly addictive!
2. Personalised Jewellery Box: I made this sweet little jewellery box using my Cricut Joy. Pick out your favourite designs on Cricut Design Space and get cutting! It’s a great way of getting used to working with Iron on too.
Here’s a link to the project Reel on my Instagram.
3. Personalised Makeup Bag: Make a bespoke make up bag or pencil case that is super useful and personal at the same time! Choose a plain make up bag and search for the perfect image on Design Space. I made this one with some glittery gold vinyl and my own eyes design that you can find on my Design Space profile (Search for #M3B76BC39!)
4. Sparkly Headband: Why not create a fun hair accessory like this sparkly headband? I created this one using my Cricut Hat Press which is perfectly shaped for working with curved surfaces. I used iron on for the design and just a few presses later, my creation was complete!

5. Personalised T-Shirt: A customised t-shirt makes a great gift! If you are gifting someone with a special interest or favourite character, adding it to a blank tee shows just how much you get them!
I made this super colourful space design using some left over vinyl scraps and my Cricut Mini Press.
Whatever you decide to design, a personal gift made by you will make that person’s day!
