When you get your Cricut machine, it opens up a new level of creativity. With the machine, you can start a small business or make custom projects, such as iron-on T-shirts, coffee mugs, leather earrings, greeting cards, coasters, and many more. Because the Cricut is a computer-controlled machine, you will need to download Cricut Design Space on your operating system. To get the Cricut software, head to the cricut.com/setup website, then download and install the software and start your journey.
