I am Samuel Charlie, Graphic Designer in Cricut Company. One of the coolest things about the Cricut machine is that it lets you customize plain objects such as mugs, tumblers, and T-shirts. For such projects, along with the Cricut machine, you need a few extra tools and accessories, such as Cricut Mug Press and Cricut Easy Press. Cricut Mug Press is used to create customized mugs and tumblers, and Cricut Easy Press is used to create customized T-shirts. You can’t use these Cricut machines as a standalone machine; they only work with the Cricut cutting machines and the Cricut Design Space app. The app is free on cCricut.com/setup and compatible with every Cricut model.
