Cricut Jukebox - Maximizing The Creativity

Cricut owners who own multiple design cartridges experience the same problem time and time again. They find themselves wanting to combine a design element from one cartridge with a design element from another cartridge. In the past, their only option was use to create their cutouts one step at a time, changing cartridges as needed. Paper stock had to be carefully positioned as the crafter tried to layer one step over the next. Those days are over, however, with the advent of the Cricut Jukebox.

The Cricut Jukebox allows crafters to use multiple cartridges at once. By simply plugging the cartridges into the Jukebox, crafters are able to access any design they want without pulling out and inserting new cartridges. Creating the perfect cutout is quick and easy.

Imagine, for instance, a crafter who would like to make customized gift tags. She may like the tag shape she found on the George cartridge that came with her original Cricut machine. However, she would also like her tag to include a Disney Princess icon cutout from a Disney-themed cartridge. Using her Cricut Jukebox, she can access both cartridges at once to create the exact tag she’s envisioned.

The Cricut Jukebox will hold as many as six cartridges at once, but the fun doesn’t have to stop there. Three Jukeboxes can be linked together to allow crafters to access as many as eighteen cartridges. It’s hard to imagine a time when any crafter will need to access more than eighteen cartridges. It does help finding cheap Cricut cartridges in order to have eighteen cartridges though, that's for sure.

In addition to providing greater design capabilities, the Cricut Jukebox also offers great storage possibilities. The base of the Jukebox is constructed from sturdy plastic that is perfect for holding the keyboard overlays and handbooks that come with cartridges. A convenient carrying handle also makes it easy to carry the Jukebox into the crafting area along with your Cricut.

Crafters who are looking for a retailer who sells the Cricut Jukebox won’t have to look much further than their desktop. Many online retailers include the Jukebox in their offering of Cricut machines and accessories. Crafters can order their Jukeboxes directly from Cricut or from discount retailers such as Amazon, who also carries cricut cartridges on sale.

Crafters who prefer to shop in person don’t have to give up on the idea of owning their own Cricut Jukebox. Many local scrapbooking shops have opted to stock the Jukebox in their stores. Even the discount juggernaut Walmart carries the Cricut Jukebox. In my area place called Michael's is the go-to place for crafting and scrapbooking products. Cricut products are in such demand that they are kept behind lock and key along with prismacolors and magic markers.

At a suggested retail price around $90, the Cricut Jukebox does require a slight investment. However, the time saved by using the Jukebox will more than prove its worth to most crafters. In addition, savvy shoppers may be able to find discounts to help make the Jukebox more affordable.

Using a Cricut Jukebox with any of the Cricut machines will change the way crafters design and complete their projects. Here are some additional Cricut project ideas.Never again will they feel compelled to try to finish their entire projects using only one cartridge. Instead, they will be able to be as creative as they can and make the most of the cartridges they own.
