2. Pillow

Every one of us might have many pillows at our home, mostly on our sofa or bed. But do you know they can be a center of attraction? Yes, you heard that right! Suppose when someone comes to your home and sits on the sofa and keeps your pillow with catchy phrases on their lap.

Won’t it attract their attention and will surprise them? Obviously, yes, thus you should give it a thought.

3. Wood Serving Tray

Those were the days when we used to use simple, plain serving trays. But today’s generation loves something unique. Hence, to make it unique, you can try this method to create an intricate design using your vinyl.

Since I prefer old and new, I created an intricate flower design with white vinyl. Rest assured, the choice is yours, and you can add whatever you want! So, if you intend to help your mom, this is one of the excellent Cricut Explore Air 2 projects for beginners.

4. Felt Flowers

I was fed up with my paper flowers. I always made those easy paper flowers because they were too easy to make. But I wanted to try something different this time, so I changed the material. I used a felt material that is too soft and looks so perfect. As you can see in the picture above, it looks very realistic.

You might also be wondering whether you can cut your felt material with a Cricut. But don’t worry. The Explore Air 2 can easily handle those felt materials. But, yes, you have to work harder when cleaning your mat.

When I got my new Cricut Explore Air 2, the hot cocoa mug was the first craft I tried that day. This is the best craft I have always wanted to try, and luckily, I had everything I needed to use the Mug Press. But you might be wondering why I chose it as my first project. The reason is simple: I had a bunch of mug blanks available that I bought during my Cricut machine shopping trip. So, what are you waiting for? Try it as your first project if you haven’t tried anything so far!
