Michaels Crafts Cricut 101 Class

As you all know, Princess has started her own crafting blog and she has been doing a great job posting nearly every day. People are starting to notice her amazing Cricut skills. On Friday she helped our little girl scout troop with a cute little autumn acorn craft.

Then on Saturday night, I took a carful of the kids down to Orem so we could attend Princess's Cricut class at Michaels Crafts. She taught 3 of them this week and I didn't want to miss out since she wasn't sure when she might be teaching again.

The class cost us only $20 and it included her expertise and equipment plus a cute plastic storage box for us to decorate that included the vinyl. Each one of us were able to choose a design on the computer or a phone and then she helped us make it come to life in vinyl and then eventually transfer it to the box.

Guess what I spent my time doing?

Scout put volleyballs on her box, of course, and Curly put a football helmet on his. Teach made hers with a cute dinosaur and set it up to keep all of Twizzler's paperwork. Our sweet little guy is going to have to have a bit more time having some of his issues repaired over the next few months. Drama Queen put an amazing and intricate design and a quote on hers, and Baby Doll wants a kitty, so she turned hers into a box dedicated to kittens.

After we finished with the boxes, we still had a little extra time, so Princess helped us with some t-shirts. Baby Doll's turned out so cute! Curly's was football-themed, and Teach made a super cute shirt for Twizlet and Scout helped her make a shirt for Twizzler.

I'm afraid we kept Princess a little longer than our allotted 2 hours, but the folks at Michaels were so sweet and supportive that I will definitely be going out of my way to shop there and you probably should too.
