Signs are DONE!

I didn't do the computer half because it's my friends, but I'll explain as best I can! There's an app or software you download I believe and then you just design whatever it is you want to print. In our case it was words. You buy rolls of vinyl (at any craft store) and that sticks to a mat that you feed into the machine. Cricuts look a lot like printers. The machine will then cut the letters into the vinyl. When you pull the mat back out you can peel away the negative space around the letters. You use transfer paper to stick the letters upside down and then put them on your surface (in this case, wood). It's a very tedious process and you have to be really careful with what fonts you choose. For example, look closely at "drinks in the barn" on the extra pic I added in the comments. That font had super small lines and was a bitch to transfer over lol. We also bad several trial and error fonts that we didn't end up using. Once I found a font that worked well, we stuck with that for the bulk of the signs!

I hope that helps! The cricuts are super cool but I'm not crafty nor patient so I'd never buy one myself. If you're into that stuff you could really make some neat things. There's iron on vinyl you can buy too to make t-shirts and such. If you decide to get one, I highly recommend watching a few YouTube videos! They were a big help to us. Good luck!
