Crafting is a great hobby. But let’s face it, it can get really expensive really quickly. It’s easy to accumulate tons of crafting tools that you never or rarely use especially if you are a hobby crafter.

If you spend anytime online looking at craft projects, then you’ve most likely run into projects that use a Cricut machine. And they are super cute crafts! But is a Cricut worth the price if you are just crafting because you love to craft?

As hobby crafters ourselves, and the owners of 3 Cricut machines, we think that investing in a Cricut machine is definitely worth it. We may not use it every single day, but we use it enough, and have tons of fun doing so, that we think everyone should own a Cricut!

We have found every Cricut machine to be easy to set up and use. You can have a new machine set up and a project cut and ready to weed within 10 minutes. And that’s with no experience using a cutting machine at all. Along the way, you’ll learn some tricks like not using super intricate fonts if you need to cut something small. But overall, Cricut has been super easy to learn even for kids.
