What To Expect With the Cricut Maker

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Cricut. The opinions and text are all mine.

I thought the Cricut Maker was mainly for people who sew (not me), but it turns out it has so many features that an avid crafter can enjoy, such as being compatible with the new Knife Blade for thicker materials up to 2.4 mm (sold separately) and being able to cut hundreds of materials, from the most delicate fabric and paper to thicker chipboard and leather. It does everything that my Cricut Explore does, plus SO...MUCH...MORE!

Geometric Painted Cork Boards

My office at work recently got a new coat of paint, which made me want to spruce up my decor a little. I have a couple of large bulletin boards in my office, so I thought I would make them pretty with coordinating paint colors. This project is super easy, yet makes a big impact! This is the perfect back to school project, as it gives you a place to organize all the forms and school schedules. You can paint it to match your Command Center, office space, or homework area.

Give a plain cork board a pop of color with paint!
