Tac Tote

Tac Tote
Flying with children requires planning ahead
It happened once and I swore I wouldn't let it again. A one-hour flight with my young son was delayed by six hours, most of it on the runway. Oh horrors ... I hadn't packed a single thing for him to play with! It's challenging enough to travel long -- or even short -- distances with kids in tow.[...]

One of the most expensive parts of owning the cricut machine is replacing the mats. The mats are sticky and hold the paper you want to cut in place so that the blade can smoothly cut the shape you program.

Below are a few tips to extending the life of your cricut mats. The tips below have been developed by users and are not necessarily endorsed by provo craft.

Rotate: Rotate your mat every time you cut. Reposition your cutting. This way you are not constantly using one portion of the mat while leaving perfectly good sticky on the rest of the mat. You can either flip it the opposite direction or use the arrows on the machine to start cutting in a completely different area of the mat. If you are a sure cuts a lot user or a cricut design software user this is pretty easy because you can visual position your cuts anywhere on the mat.

Get two mats and rotate between the two is also a very helpful tip.

Cover: Keep your mat covered. If you don't all the particles floating in the air can land on your mat and and prevent it from being sticky. Use the clear plastic or store your mats face to face to prevent dust and debris from landing on your mat.

Clean: Clean off extra paper from your mat every time you use it. When you are done with the your cricut mat for the day wipe them down with a damp cloth or use baby wipes. Baby wipes are just part of my scrapbook supplies. They keep your hands clean, surfaces clean, they wipe up craft mats after using ink techniques. Wipe your mats with baby wipes. They will feel less tacky but as they dry the sticky will return. Another handy tool is a lint roller. It can be helpful to pick up dust off your cricut mat as well as getting those tiny little pieces of paper off.

Resticky: You can make the mats sticky again if they don't have too many groves in them by using Wacky Tac. A word of precaution if you have a warranty on your machine and you are worried about voiding the warranty don't use this. I no longer have a warranty and don't have any trouble. Be sure to keep the wacky tac in the cutting margins of the mat to prevent getting the wacky tac on the rollers or anywhere else in the cricut machine. This is a best judgment application.

Using a little tape just on the corners of the cricut mat to hold the paper down. It helps when you need just a little extra stick on the borders of the mat.

Using this method I have been able to extend the life of my cricut mats for nearly 6 months.
