It was my 40th in July and it wasn’t a big fancy event. It was low key, small and pretty quiet. And I loved it. What I loved more is the most amazing gift bought by my Husband. And I am actually blogging about my birthday gift today. I present to you The new Cricut maker 3 review!
My hubby asked me what I wanted for my birthday and I instantly knew this is what I wanted. So my gift wasn’t a surprise at all. Again, I was ok with this as I’d much rather have a gift I want as oppose to a surprise that I’m underwhelmed with.
Do Your Research
I actually researched my own deals on the Maker 3 and got an amazing bundle from Cricut themselves. The deal is on Cricut still if you’d like to buy. I’m not a Cricut affiliate so I don’t earn anything. But I love sharing deals/moneysaving ideas and I get immense satisfaction in helping people save money. Also if you want to save more money, there is an additional 10% discount if you’re a Cricut access member and another 10% off with various codes from Cricut affiliates. You can use ‘makerykate’ for another 10% off. Kate is an affiliate with Cricut and she is also an awesome all round human being and crafter. Go follow her on Instagram. She has so many Cricut tips and tutorials.
I also just want to point out that I got my own Maker (well my Husband paid). This Cricut Maker 3 review is not an AD or affiliated with Cricut. It is an independent review from me. All views are my own.
Ok, Now that I’ve gone over my backstory, let’s get started on the meaty stuff. The Cricut Maker 3 review.
What You Get In your Cricut Maker 3 Box
Firstly what comes in the box:
Cricut Maker 3 machine
Premium Fine-Point Blade + Blade Housing (pre-installed in the B clamp)
Accessory Adapter (pre-installed in the A clamp)
Quick Start Guide
Safety document
Warranty document
USB cable
Power adapter and power cord
Material for test cut
Bonus materials
This is a beast of a machine. It is about 54 cms long and weighs 4.84kgs (thats about 5 bags of sugar).
The look and feel of the Cricut Maker 3 is very premium and it is solid and sturdy. It’s not one of those machines that will break at the slightest knock. Another this I like about this Cricut machine is that it can be placed anywhere in your home without feeling like its an industrial workhorse. It has this unassuming look about it. It will probably blend in with your office to kitchen gadgets but as all Cricut fans know, the Maker 3 is anything but unassuming and is certainly not made to just look nice or blend in.
Cricut Maker 3 looks like Clark Kent but has the power and capabilities of Superman. It is super fast (2 times faster than its predecessor), super easy to use and can cut up to 300+ materials including wood up to 2mm thick, leather and heavy cardstock.
What you need to know when you get it out of the box.
The Cricut Maker 3 is set up and ready to use out of the box. All you have to do is register on Cricut Design Space (the programme used to design projects on) and connect your machine and you are ready to go. You can connect via USB or Bluetooth which gives you the freedom to work from your desktop or from your tablet/phone. Design Space is free but you can upgrade to Cricut access which offers you a great deal of images and fonts on a monthly subscription basis.
Now a lot of people do not like design space. They feel its glitchy and clunky. But I’m not amazingly tech savvy and cannot really use programmes like Inkscape (I’ve really tried but my time brain can’t take it). So I like the ease of Design Space. I think Cricut have deliberately made design space simple so everyone can use it. And it works for me. There are a million and one tutorials on YouTube and I’ve made a few myself on Instagram. Go check my Design Space basic tutorials. And do let me know what you think?
The difference between the old Cricut Maker and the new Cricut Maker 3
There isn’t actually a lot of difference between the Maker and the Maker 3. Both can cut the same materials and use the same tools. But the new Maker 3 is a lot faster. If you’ve used the Maker and then use the Maker 3, you can really tell how speedy the new maker is.
Apart from this, Cricut have introduced Smart Materials with the maker 3 which basically means you don’t need a Mat to cut a Project out. It also means you can cut out longer projects. (up to 12ft).
Is it Worth Upgrading to the Cricut Maker 3
This is a very subjective thing. I wanted the new Maker 3, but it was my 40th and I wanted to be spoilt etc.
And I hate to admit this, but I’m a bit like those iPhone users who need the new iPhone as soon as it comes out, apart from I’m like that with Cricut machines.
Also like I said earlier, my husband was gonna spend money on me for my 40th anyway, so this was a good gift for me.
But if I’m looking at it objectively and it wasn’t my 40th and I wasn’t so fickle, I would say you don’t need to upgrade at all unless you plan to do big projects.
If you’re buying from new, I would say go for the new Maker 3 as you then have the option of making big projects.
What essentials will you need for the Cricut Maker 3 that don’t come in the box?
Ok, this really does depend on what you intend to make. For example if you think you’ll be cutting lots of wood, you’ll need to invest in a knife blade. If you want to make professional looking cards or gift boxes, a scoring wheel or a scoring stylus are a must or if you want to cut really heavy card, in my opinion the fine point blade won’t do, you’ll need the deep point blade.
You will also need to buy some essential tools like a weeding tool for vinyl and intricate crafts, a good pair of scissors and a scraper to get card/vinyl off your mats.
Also, I honestly do not know why Cricut have not included Mats in their machines. Again my opinion is that these are essential and should be included in the box. Not everything you make will be with Smart Materials and if you’re crafting with leather/cloth you’ll absolutely need a mat. As far as I’m aware, Cricut haven’t developed Smart cloth yet! So you’ll have to buy at least one mat.
I was actually really disappointed that Mats were not included and I really do hope Cricut include these in the future. (I’ll explain the difference between mats later on in this Cricut Maker 3 review).
Advice on buying Materials
I also need to make you aware that Cricut Materials and tools are not cheap and also do need to be replaced on a regular basis too. So if you think buying a machine is as simple as making a one-off payment, then I’m sorry to say that is not true.
But it is like any other hobby/passion or small business. If you’re a knitter, I’m sure you but endless supplies of yarn and knitting needles. And it is the same with Cricut. You buy the materials and then create with your machine.
I would always recommend you use the Cricut tools for your machines (use anything else and it voids your warranty) but you can choose other materials like card and vinyl from other suppliers which can be cheaper and better. I buy my vinyl from Teckwrap craft mainly. (you can find out more about this Company on my instagram page).
I buy my card from a company called Craft label. They are brilliant and very reasonably priced.
Also love a good shop at Hobbycraft (who doesn’t)! You can always pick up some great blanks and materials and they always have a sale going on.
So, you have a lot of options to shop around and buy different materials from different places and find what suits you best.
The only materials you cannot buy elsewhere (as far as I’m aware) are Smart Materials.
What are Smart Materials?
Cricut Smart Materials are simply materials like vinyl and sticker paper/cardstock that you can use without a Mat on the Maker 3 or Explore 3.
There are currently 3 smart material varieties available.
Smart Vinyl: Can be used on cards, cups, walls and a variety of other things. These do not need a heat press and once cut can be stuck on a multitude of products. The Smart Vinyl comes in two forms permanent and removable.
Smart Iron-on: Can be used to personalise things like Clothing or cushion covers etc. Requires a heat press.
Smart Sticker cardstock: Can make stickers or use on card.
The Smart vinyl and iron on vinyl soles in rolls and can be used to make projects unto 12 ft long.
These materials would be great if you are decorating a wall space, sell large wall stickers or crafting for a wedding.
I think when the Cricut Maker 3 was being developed with Smart materials, Cricut were looking at how they could enable people to make their own big projects and I think they probably wanted to emphasise how the maker 3 could help with interior design.
What Mat should I buy?
There are four different mats:
LightGrip (blue): use for thin materials like paper and light/thin card.
StandardGrip (green): use with medium-weight materials such as heavy cardstock and vinyl
StrongGrip (purple): use with heavy-weight materials like balsa wood, poster board, leather.
FabricGrip (pink): use with any type of fabric.
Like I said earlier you will need at least one mat for the Maker 3 to start off with. I use the standard grip mat the most.
These are the official sellers I know about. If I find more, I’ll further add to this list.
Should I buy a Machine or a Bundle?
I bought a bundle because I wanted to try out the Smart Materials and use as many products as I could for this Cricut Maker 3 review. And with my Cricut access discount and a code from a Cricut affiliate I (My husband) ended up paying just a little bit over what a Maker 3 would cost on its own. I bought my Maker 3 at Cricut online and it arrived within a week or so. Can’t fault Cricut customer service so far.
Cricut maker 3: A Summary
The Good
The new Cricut Maker 3 is a beautiful premium product. It makes an amazing gift. So if you have a crafter or creative in your life and you’re looking for a great gift, this is perfect.
Also Christmas is just around the corner and this machine would make an ideal Christmas gift.
Not only is the Cricut Maker 3 beautiful to look at, it is also a very sophisticated piece of equipment that cuts over 300 materials and is easy to set up and use.
It is a step up from the Cricut Maker but I wouldn’t say it is an essential upgrade. If you have a Maker and don’t need to use Smart materials to make big projects, then this machine doesn’t have too much more to offer than your current Maker.
However, if you want to buy a new Cricut machine or want to gift an amazing present then the Cricut Maker 3 is the one. Of all the Cricut machines, this is the one that is the most powerful, most sophisticated and one that offers you options to create some amazing craft projects. You can do it all with the Cricut maker 3.
But as with everything, there are positives and negatives.
The Not so Good
The Cricut maker 3 doesn’t come with a mat (Can you tell I’m upset about that)? It’s such a small thing but I think it just would have made the whole thing complete. I really do hope the powers at Cricut start to include mats with their machines.
Buying a Cricut Maker 3 also means you have to buy accessories with it. A weeding tool, scissors, and scraper are all essentials. Just remember that you will require to add to your Cricut collection. It is an expensive thing to own.
I also can’t get the Cricut Maker 3 to connect to Bluetooth. I think I read somewhere that this is a technical issue that is being resolved.
Also you’ll require space. The Cricut maker 3 is 54 cms long and quite heavy. It is not something you can just slide under a cupboard. It will need some space. You’ll also need some space for accessories and materials. Just something to think about.
The Verdict of the Cricut Maker 3
In conclusion, yes there are some downsides. But I wanted one for my 40th birthday, so that must tell you that I really approve of this machine.
My personal view is that the Cricut Maker 3 is worth the investment. If you’re a Creative person, then you need this machine. There are so many things that you can make with the Cricut Maker 3, you’ll be amazed.
Before you buy anything though, do your research and make sure you’re happy before you buy. It’s a lot of money so be sure it is something you want and will use.
Or maybe start dropping hints to family and friends now, so you can get it gifted for Christmas?

Dad Gift 1
Wooden Pen Pot Personalised pen Pot from Happiness is a Gift Wooden Pen Pot
Firstly let me tell you about an amazing gift I received from Happiness is a gift. This company specialises in personalised gifts for all occasions and you can find so many wonderful gifts for everybody on their website.
I chose this beautiful wooden pen pot and had it personalised for my blog and everyone loves it. It’s made from walnut wood and is a solid piece of stationery that will be loved by anyone. A Dad who spends time in an office or a Dad who likes arts and crafts and needs to store paint brushes or pens/pencils will cherish this. Buy it for your dad and get it personalised for a lovely little Christmas gift.
Dad Gift 2
R shape wood design that turns into a lamp
Sticking with the theme of practical presents, the next gift I found is a little corker. I was at The Spirit of Christmas Fair in Olympia, London and came across a company called Ginko electronics. They have so many innovative and amazing products and they are all practical, stylish and amazing. One of the new products they have is the R Space Lamp. When closed, this lamp looks like a 3D ‘R’ shape, but when you open it, it transforms it to a stunning lamp. The lamp can be plugged in at the mains or charged up so it is fully portable. A seriously great present for a cool Dad. Go check it out.
Dad Gift 3
Watch and Cufflink Box
At the same Christmas fair, I came across a lovely little company called Atlas London. Atlas specialise in producing and designing products of Thuya Burr, which is a conifer grown in North Africa. The timber is provided under government licence from an area that is engaged in sustainable planting. Atlas sell a range of products that Dad would love. I especially like their gorgeous wooden watch/cufflink boxes. If your Dad has a section of watches and cufflinks, buy him a well made box to display them in. When I saw these boxes, they instantly reminded me of Morocco. They have that traditional look about them. Well made boxes with that traditional rustic vibe. A lovely elegant gift for Dad.
Dad Gift 4
Vinyl Clock
Another company I discover at the Spirit of Christmas fair was Mixpixie. If your Dad is into nostalgia, retro items and music, you’ll never need to look anywhere else for a present for him. Mix Pixie have some amazing retro gift ideas, from Vinyl clocks to personalised playlist advent calendars. An awesome gift for Dad would be their personalised sound wave cushion. You choose your Dad’s favourite song and Mix Pixie will create a sound wave of the song and print it on to the cusion. You can also add text under the sound wave. A beautiful yet unusual gift that will be loved by dad forever. Go have a look at Mix Pixie and get your music loving dad a great gift this Christmas.
Dad Gift 5
Step Stool
Does your dad love DIY and odd jobs around the house? Does he have a Man cave or a little workshop at the back of the garden? In that case, I may have just found a great gift for him. Giggy and Bab create beautiful yet functional stepping stools that are manufactured in the UK. These multi purpose stools are well made and will be loved by Dad. A practical functional Christmas present for the dad who likes hardcore DIY or the dad who just wants a nice stool to have a cuppa in his shed. Either way makes a great Christmas gift idea for Dad.
Dad Gift 6
Socks from Roy’s Boys
Last, but certainly not the least, buy your dad a subscription box from Roy’s Boy’s.
Roy’s Boys provide a sock subscription that will be delivered to your Dad every month. Spread the joy of Christmas all year round and give Dad an annual subscription of socks. Let’s face it, which dad doesn’t need new socks. However, of you feel a sock subscription is too much, Roy’s Boys also do a variety of gift boxes and matching family gift socks too. Check them out and find some funky socks for your Father.
There you have a few Christmas gift ideas for Dad. Would love to hear your thoughts on this. Feel free to leave comments or come talk to me on Twitter or Instagram.
Press Trip – Free tickets to the fair, but views and opinions are my own.
This year I visited the Spirit of Christmas Fair courtesy of Stature PR. The fair was at London Olympia and was filled to the brim with all things Christmas. There were lots of Christmas decorations, foods and most importantly Christmas Gift ideas. So many gorgeous gifts and pretty presents, I was like a kid in a Christmas candy shop. I can’t actually put all the awesomeness into this gift guide, but I have chosen the best Christmas gift ideas according to me.
Gadget Gifts
Practical and well designed, my first gift idea would be ideal for a music lover, a fan of trendy tech or someone who wants a nice speaker to put in their house/workplace. Introducing Halo One – Bluetooth/NFC speaker from Gingko. Sleek to look at and has amazing sound quality. This makes a great present for a wide variety of people. You can gift this to your partner, your friend, teenagers or just gift it to yourself. A seriously good gift, go have a look at this. You can thank me later.
Stunning stationery
Next up is stunning stationery from inspired stories. As I was walking around the Christmas fair, I came across a stall selling absolutely beautiful personalised stationery. I’m a sucker for stationery, have so many diaries, bullet journals and notebooks, It’s an addiction. Anyway, I came across a few gift ideas from Inspired stories. Firstly they have personalised wedding planners, so if you know anyone getting married next year, gift them this, they will adore you.
Secondly I saw a Rose Gold Wall Grid. A perfect gift for a student, someone who has a home office or someone who likes organising things in an aesthetically pleasing way.
Both things can be bought on the inspired stories website.
Eye-Catching Earrings
Know anyone who loves jewellery? Well if you’re in the market for bold, statement earrings keep reading. I came across a company called Toolally, I’d never heard of them before, but am a fan now. Toolally were selling some gorgeous earrings and they have been featured on BBC’s Strictly come Dancing. If you have a fashionista in the family or a jewellery addicted friend, go check out Toolally and pick out the perfect pair of earring this Christmas.
Distinct Design
The next present I picked from from Lucy loves this. Lucy is a cover designer from South London and hand draws designs she loves. Lucy loves this was displaying lots of ‘London Alphabet’ art at the spirit of Christmas fair, but her drawings are not limited to London, so you can buy a print from of so many cities in Britain and prints of other countries too. A print from Lucy loves this would make a lovely gift for so many people. If you’re thinking of buying a gift for him or her, you can buy a print of their favourite city or a print of a place/name that means something to them. This is a gorgeous keepsake gift that will be loved by the recipient.
Luxe Luggage
Finally, I came across a brilliant brand called ‘Carried by Farino’ and they sell they most gorgeous luggage carriers that have an incredibly stunning design element to them. These would make the perfect gift for any professional who has to carry things around with them or a travel addict who needs a cabin sized carrier. They are super luxurious and have an extremely high quality, high end look about them. A unisex gift that is beautiful and functional.

Christmas Birchbox
If you know me at all, you’ll know that I absolutely adore Birchbox and have even written an article about them previously (Birchbox post). So when Birchbox wanted to send me a gifted box to review, I jumped at the chance. I love pretty beauty gifts and a Birchbox Gift Subscription is the perfect present this Christmas
What’s in the box?
Well, the December BirchBox is actually not a box at all. Its is a silky smooth Velvet pouch/make up bag that is ultra glam and will no doubt be used to store a variety of make up and skin care products. Its is so gorgeous and you could even get away with using it as an evening bag.
There are 6 products in this months subscription.
A Forgive Me Suzie Eyeshadow Palette in ‘Eye Swear’. And I swear I love this Palette. It’s just the perfect little amount of eyeshadow to put in your bag. And it has the most sumptuous shades of browns and coppers. The eyeshadows are matte, metallic and shimmer and perfect to glitz up your make up game.
A Birchbox Eyeshadow Brush. This is a nice touch from Birchbox in my opinion as it’s only right that you get a quality brush with quality eyeshadow. It’s also vegan and cruelty free.
Next is something I’m quite curious about. A Mother of Pearl Soap Sponge from daily concepts. Now I’ve used soap on my face and I’ve used sponges too, but not a soap sponge. The soap sponge is meant to exfoliate and cleanse in one step, so those of us who are a little lax with the exfoliating (ME) will like this concept. I’m looking forward to trying this.
The Ikoo thermal treatment hair wrap is a sheet mask for your hair. It is suppose to soothe irritated scalps and heal damaged locks. Basically you wrap it around hair like you would a towel and leave it to work its magic for 15-25 mins. I love a good face mask, so hope this hair mask is good too.
The next product is something perfect for any party season and I love it. Brave.New.Care hair and body shimmer. It smells like peppermint and is like a pot of melted gold shimmer. It glides on and will make you sparkle from head to toe.
The last product is Anna Sui Gel foundation Primer. I’ve heard of Anna Sui, but never really tried it. Having tried a little of this primer from the box, I really like it but not sure if I would pay £22.00 for it. And that is why I love Birchbox so much. I get a decent sized Anna Sui product to try and decide if it’s for me or not. So much better than buying a full sized product and let it gather dust in my already full bathroom shelf.
The lovely people at Birchbox have also added a little extra gift in this months box and that is a packet of Candy Kitten Sweets. Yum.
I’m sure you’ll all agree that this Birchbox is excellent value for money and would make a fantabulous gift for so many ladies out there. The Birchbox Gift Subscription this Christmas is amazing.
Who are you going to buy your BIRCHBOX for?
An Ideal Christmas Gift for…
A Birchbox Gift Subscription this Christmas would be an ideal gift for so many people.
I would definitely gift this to a teenager. I have a 14 year old niece who has started to experiment with make up and skincare and she is currently subscribed to Birch Box and loves it. This would be an ideal gift for a teenagers it gives them the opportunity to test new products and skin care and decide what they like without it costing a fortune. So if you’re stuck with ideas on what to buy a young daughter, niece or cousin this Christmas, then buy them a gift Subscription to Birch Box, this would be ideal.
Another person who would love a Birchbox Gift subscription this Christmas is a mum-to- be or a new mum. I have 2 young kids and understand how important some ‘me time’ can be for my sanity.
If you have a friend or a relative who has young children and they would like to receive a monthly box of skincare and beauty treats so they can enjoy some pamper time, then buy them a subscription to BirchBox. They will really thank you.
BirchBox can also make a really good present for Sisters, friends and partners. I was actually gifted a subscription box for my birthday and I was super excited to get a package through the post every month. It’s exciting to open the box and see what you get each month, then make a little time for myself and play around with the products received.
If you know a make up addict, a lover of skin care or someone who likes to pamper themselves, buy them a BirchBox subscription. And every time the post delivers a Birchbox box to their door, they will think how awesome you are.
Also don’t forget Birchbox makes an excellent last minute gift. If you’re reading this on Christmas Eve and you’ve forgotten to buy someone a gift, click on the link and buy them a Birchbox. You can print out a gift certificate to give to them and then they will be sent a gift card out in the post.
Here is my affiliate link to a Birchbox Gift Subscription
