PART TWO has landed!!!
***
Remember this from last week…
…well as promised, we’re back with the second half of our tutorial, because I just had too much to say the first time around. If you missed part one, you can find it >here<. Make sure to catch up because we are diving right back in where we left off.
In part two you’ll learn more about how to cut wood and vinyl, how to prep your cutting mats and get your Cricut machine ready to cut each material, including how to load in your cutting blades, and all about weeding and transferring vinyl. We also finally get to the box itself! Prepping it with primer, painting, applying your design and adding finishing touches like sealant and a box liner to give it that premium look and feel.
