I just received an Explore Air 2 as an early birthday present and quickly found your channel. The quality of your videos is fantastic through multiple camera angles, editing, and lightning, as well as the format and quality of your content. You include everyone, no matter their experience level or chosen technology (mac/pc and android/ iPhone). Your professionalism is inspiring, and I appreciate you and your team!
I recieved the Explore Air 2 in the summer/fall of 2021. I JUST unboxed it with you tonight. YAY!!! Life gets so busy, time gets away from me, and I was a little intiminated by this tiny mint colored machine. Your video is a Godsend! I was able to follow along easily, and you got me where I needed to be until my laptop went wonky! Then, I had to search the website for help. But I thank you for helping teach this old dog new tricks and get me to where I needed to be!!! I am already wondering why I procrastinated so much! I'm gonna run this little machine like a BOSS!
I watched a few other tutorial videos and couldn't figure it out. Made my first cut because of this video. I appreciated the multiple views and the sectioned videos so I could skip the set up of devices I didn't need. Thank you so much.
I've been putting off my Christmas gift for literal months now because it's soooo freakin' intimidating to even THINK of something to do with my arts-and-crafts beast... I know this is gonna sound cheesy as heck, but the fact that you said that you're here for us from step 1 made me relax a million times... Thank you SO much for saying that...
I just got a Cricut explore 2 and your tutorial was so helpful. My first project was your small 8 layered flower mandala. It turned out so good thanks to your amazing directions. I’m so excited for all the future projects. Thank you so so much!
I wanted a 3, but very happy to start out with the Explore air 2 that I received this past Christmas. I first and foremost want to say, Jennifer you are the (GOAT)! If you don't know what that means, it means, "Greatest of all time". Your video was simply, easy to follow, and very thorough. Thank you for your diligence in helping others and the joy you have doing it. Many blessings.😊🙏💫🦋
Hi Jennifer, thank you for being a wonderful teacher/mentor. Your patience, experience and skill set is obvious in the presentation of your tutorials. My husband bought my first ever Cricut Explore Air 2 machine for my birthday and I am thrilled. I was feeling overwhelmed with the process and setup of my machine when my hubby came across your channel. I look forward to following, learning and to enjoy expanding on my crafting abilities with your help and guidance, subscribed and saved under favourites. Thank you for your kindness and wanting to share your cleverness with all. Chris from down under.... that is Australia!!!
Thank you!! Was seriously on the verge of tears. Bought my Cricut over 2 years ago. Just got it out, followed the directions and it was stuck in prepare and wouldn't cut. Couldn't start all the way over but was able to pick up in Design Space (kinda sorta the same steps) and needed to push the darn mat up. Smh. Thanks again!! ❤
My great Aunt just gifted her machine to me and I do not have any idea on how to use it nor did the instrusctions come along with so, I did some search and stumbled upon your channel. I'm not even 3 minutes in and I'm subscribing, you are sweet, wholseome and so easy to watch so thank you for making these videos and the handbook!!! 💜💜
You are so welcome! Here is the entire course. makeracademy.com/cricutkickoff/ Cricut machines do not come with a manual just like computers but everything is on cricut.com
This was so much fun! Thanks for taking time out of your day after Christmas to do this! I have owned this machine for 2 years (embarrassed emoji...lol). However, I became motivated to setup this machine after receiving a Cricut Mug press for Christmas. So, this video was incredibly helpful. Thank you for doing this!!!
That's great! You are on your way! This can be helpful too. We have a free series of online classes that show you how to set up and begin creating with your machine as a Cricut owner! Here's the link to sign up: makeracademy.com/cricutkickoff
I received my Air2 the other day and am looking forward to getting started. Jennifer, your detailed instructions have been so good, it helped me out a lot. Very professional. I was tracking all the way through until it was time to do the test cut, then I ran into a problem. I was forced to call Tech Support and they found the problem. Very clear instructions they gave as well. Everything was clear English, I wasn't speaking to someone from another country like other Tech Support. Don't mean to offend anyone with that. But, again, Thanks Jennifer. I'm looking forward to watching more of your videos to help me get on my way.
I appreciate so much how you help us beginners do what we want and need. I pretty much had my explorer 2 air set up, except getting it to work with Bluetooth. I was working trying to figure it out most of the day and final accepted I need help. You definitely made it so easy and I am grateful. You are an amazing teacher, instructor, and I love your channel.
I received the Cricut Explore Air 2 last August and have not used it yet because I wasn't sure if I could figure it out so I have left it in the box. Thank you for your wonderful video. I will definitely be opening it up and using it now that I've learned from your video how to set it up and use it. THANK YOU! I'm so excited now.
I’ve literally just set the whole machine up and even got the card stock onto the mat and about to cut an actual thing right now! This is all because of ur video! Thank u so much for this! My machine will be 2 years old this year and it’s finally out the box 🎉🎉🎉
I do have a little question tho? Do I have to have the green mat to cut vinyl or would the light grip work? I’m so excited to start that but I don’t have the green mat yet 🥴
I just received my Cricut Explore Air 2 today. I was so frustrated until I found your video. I am feeling a lot better about it now. I can't wait to watch the next video. Thank you for your wonderful help. You explain things in every aspect completely.
There is a learning curve but the more I watch the videos the more I learn. Thank you so much. I like the utube as I can go back and replay stuff I didn't get the first time.
Hello, thank you so much for these videos. I don't own a Cricut yet but definitely want to get one. I was referred to you by others on the Facebook beginners group so I thought I'd watch your how to videos before making the purchase. You are so wonderful in teaching so far in lesson #1. I feel like a pro just watching you demonstrate the bet up. I subscribed to you already! Again Thank you for taking your time and doing step by step in teaching us beginners. It's so greatly appreciated. Have a wonderful day!
I’m very much a visual learner and your teaching style is wonderful. I’m pretty tech savvy but I like to find helpful videos like these. Just got ours. I subscribed to your channel 😊
i m just loving your channel it helps me alot and you look similar to my mom who is no more and i want to succeed in this business to make her proud thanks for your helping hand
You are a true life saver and your tutorials are spot on. I have a cricut air2 that was a Christmas gift to myself last year and we are in mid June and I just did my first cut with the help of your video. I thank you so much for taking the time to make these videos to help get in tuned with our machine and how to hook up each device as well.
Thanks so much for sharing. I haven't used my machine in awhile and I logged and noticed all the new updates and how everything is consumed to explore 3 and I have explore air 2. I learned how to connect my explore air 2 in design space by watching this video. Thanks so much for sharing ❤
SO grateful for you Jennifer. Without your tips & guidance, my Cricut may be collecting dust in my office & that would be a crying shame. Thank you. ❤️
I received my Cricut Explore Air 2 yesterday and have set it up today, while following your video. Thank you so much for your help. I’m looking forward to watching more of your video’s.
I love all of your videos Jennifer. They are so easy to follow. I purchased your handbook and it is awesome! So detailed with the screenshots and tips. Keep making these videos please :) I can't wait for my explore air 2 to arrive! I'll be well prepared now!
Thank you so much for this video, I recently purchase my girlfriend a Cricut and we were struggling to set it up and connect the Cricut to the point we bought an entire new laptop. Without you we never would have gotten it to work. Thank you
Thank you so much for this video. It was so helpful. I received my Cricut for Christmas and I am now only opening it. I was very lose. Thank you for the step by step instructions. I loved the way I could see everything you where talking about, the cameras. Your spot on... Thank you so very much.
Omw to getting this on today, thankful I found your videos and seeing others say u calmer their anxiety with all this makes me very hopeful it won't be as much of a pain as I may usually think :)
Thank you so much, you make this look easy! I hinted to my son that I wanted a Cricut and my beautiful child bought me one TWO years ago, I haven't used it because when I first opened it up I felt overwhelmed, now after watching your video I can't wait to get home and get started!
Thank you for an easy to follow along with and understand Cricut tutorial. I just got my Explore Air 2 machine and am looking forward to using it. Your tutorials make me feel less intimidated.
You got this! Congratulations on your new machine! We have a free series of online classes that show you how to set up and begin creating with your machine as a new Cricut owner! Here's the link to sign up: makeracademy.com/cricutkickoff
Thank you so much for this set up video! My sister gave me her used cricut explore air 2 and I had no idea what to do. This video was incredibly helpful!
Thank you so much for your tutorial. I recently acquired a Air2, it had one previous owner so the welcome packet wasn't in the box. I was able to follow through the steps with you and setup my new toy. Thank you!!!
Thank you for this tutorial! I just received mine today(off eBay, Lord willing, it works). I do have one question. Should I leave the dial on custom when cutting whatever material I have? Then, change it when I'm choosing online prior cut?
Hi I like your videos I started to set up my air 2 explorer and I didn’t finish doing the set up and started to do things on design space and I started to print something without realizing and now I can’t set it up because it says I started a project 😊
I have my explorer air 2 for 4 years. I’m not a technology person so I feel so intimidated by design space. I’m so afraid I’m going to click the wrong icon and mess up something. I have shown my 15 year old granddaughter my Cricut and maybe with her technology experience she can get me over my fear of the computer and design space. I’m looking forward to making many things soon!
I just got my 1st one today! I'm so excited! But I've gone through all the tutorials. I'm i'm at the point where it says cut in progress and it's doing nothing. It's been here for now 5 mins! What am I doing wrong?
Hello I am new to your channel. I just got my cricut 2. I really enjoyed your video . Detail of this video well spoken. Can u tell me do I need that green mat I see also, please tell me what size table should I buy. Thank you in advance.
You mentioned putting the dial on ‘custom’ for all upcoming projects instead of for example ‘card stock’ etc. Do you have a video to elaborate a little more? Thanks!
You can use any new laptop, just not Chromebook. There are more details at help.cricut.com/hc/en-us/articles/360009556033-System-Requirements-Design-Space 😊🌻
Youre so lovely and skilled in your craft! I couldn't get mine to work because I'm assuming the Bluetooth connection was to blame. Will try again tomorrow with the usb!
I just learned about the custom setting on the explore air 2. I have only done a few cuts and I wondered why I wasn't asked to select materials and cutting instructions in design space. When I have the custom setting selected will design space automatically ask the right questions? BTW you are my inspiration. I appreciate your knowledge and that you are so willing to share with us. Thank you.
It really help me a lot with my newly bought cricut explore air2.. I followed step by step then it goes well. I just had one problem.. my printer cannot print good quality of picture/stickers when I used it on cricut print and cut.. what would be the best printer that may suit with this machine?? I hope you may answer.. tnx
Thank you for your time and knowledge. During the setup cut my design space during the “cut in progress” keeps saying “preparing” and doesn’t don anything after that. Any tips?
@@AshTalk Such a logical idea!!! YES, it worked. Thanks for your willingness to respond to my question. I have completed my first project thanks to you!!!
I am struggling with my machine cutting vinyl the first time, I either have to press the cut again or turn my dial to iron -on to get a good cut the first time.
Loved your video with the instructions. Very clear and so helpful! I encountered a last minute issue at the time of cutting. The system was kept saying preparing for cutting, but it never happened. So I turned the machine off. Is there a way to go back to text the cutting to complete the set ups? Please advise.

Sounds like you may have a connection issue. If you can't troubleshoot it with my video, I would suggest reaching out to Cricut for help ❤️
Hello I am new to your channel. I just got my cricut 2. I really enjoyed your video . Detail of this video well spoken. Can u tell me do I need that green mat I see also, please tell me what size table should I buy. Thank you in advance.
The green mat is the standard cutting mat and the one that I recommend the most!🥰
Very helpful !!!
Thank you!
You mentioned putting the dial on ‘custom’ for all upcoming projects instead of for example ‘card stock’ etc. Do you have a video to elaborate a little more? Thanks!
You can set the material in Design Space, instead of the wheel. 😊🌻
I love this video. Very helpful. I can't seem to find lesson 2 or 3. Any help would be appreciated.
Here is the entire course you can sign up for. makeracademy.com/cricutkickoff/
Thanks 😊
Love ur how u explain, but I have a question: What computer or laptop I can use? I have the Samsung laptop and I can't download the design space
You can use any new laptop, just not Chromebook. There are more details at help.cricut.com/hc/en-us/articles/360009556033-System-Requirements-Design-Space 😊🌻
Youre so lovely and skilled in your craft! I couldn't get mine to work because I'm assuming the Bluetooth connection was to blame. Will try again tomorrow with the usb!
USB is the most reliable choice!
You are adorable and very badly needed!
Aww thanks!🥰
I just learned about the custom setting on the explore air 2. I have only done a few cuts and I wondered why I wasn't asked to select materials and cutting instructions in design space. When I have the custom setting selected will design space automatically ask the right questions? BTW you are my inspiration. I appreciate your knowledge and that you are so willing to share with us. Thank you.
yes, when you turn the dial to custom, you will then go into DS and select your materials. 🥰
Thank you mawmaw Jenni
It really help me a lot with my newly bought cricut explore air2.. I followed step by step then it goes well. I just had one problem.. my printer cannot print good quality of picture/stickers when I used it on cricut print and cut.. what would be the best printer that may suit with this machine?? I hope you may answer.. tnx
I love my HP Envy 7155 for Print then Cut projects, I have a link to it on my blog- jennifermaker.com/favoritethings 😊🌻
Thank you for your time and knowledge.
During the setup cut my design space during the “cut in progress” keeps saying “preparing” and doesn’t don anything after that. Any tips?
maybe try reinstalling DS.🥰
Mines doing it too. Nothing's working.
Having the same problem. I reinstalled DS twice without and improvement. Bug in the latest installation program????
Solved: I just bypassed the setup cut and went straight into Canva design, created, and then cut. Hope this solves y’all problem
@@AshTalk Such a logical idea!!! YES, it worked. Thanks for your willingness to respond to my question. I have completed my first project thanks to you!!!
I am struggling with my machine cutting vinyl the first time, I either have to press the cut again or turn my dial to iron -on to get a good cut the first time.
Loved your video with the instructions. Very clear and so helpful! I encountered a last minute issue at the time of cutting. The system was kept saying preparing for cutting, but it never happened. So I turned the machine off. Is there a way to go back to text the cutting to complete the set ups? Please advise.
Yes, It should still be in design Space and you can start the process for cutting over again.
Thank you so much
Any time!
