17 Cricut Baby Gift Ideas

A new baby should be an occasion for celebration and joy–still, new parents are faced with new responsibilities and enormous demands. They can feel that they have too much to do and too little time. Here you will find 17 Cricut baby gift ideas.

1. Stuffed Toy

A personalized stuffed toy is a bright addition to a baby’s room, and the little one will soon be hugging her favorite friend. Carrie from the Cricuter channel shows us how to personalize a stuffed toy in her video. You buy the toy from your preferred outlet, and off you go.

2. Nursery Floor Mat

Makers Gonna Learn is our guide, but you can quickly adapt the instructions in this video to make a colorful mat for the baby’s space. Bright colors will grab the baby’s attention, or maybe you want to create a more functional piece with the numbers 1-12, making a perfect monthly photo backdrop. But do make sure your carpet is easy to clean!

3. Bibs

We all know how messy a baby can be, so gifting personalized bibs is a must. Chipped Builds shows how easy it is to make bibs using your Cricut. And don’t be stingy by only gifting one or two, a whole lot of seven sounds like a solid number for a messy babe.

4. Baby Blanket

Keep baby warm with a snug blanket. This video, from Panda Boop Creates, takes you through the process by using your Cricut and heat transfer vinyl to make a one-of-a-kind piece. You may even want to make a winter and a summer blanket to keep the baby covered all year long. Get it covered?

5. Onesies

Onesies make a parent’s life so much easier. We all know how difficult it can be to dress a baby who seems determined to avoid being dressed at all costs. Onesies make a tough job simple. This tutorial comes from the Sprinkled with Paper channel, and it clearly explains how to make bright and attractive onesies using heat transfer vinyl. 

6. Burp Cloths

Babies are forever slobbering and burping; parents’ pockets and bags are full of tissues to mop up the results. These easy-to-make burp cloths will come in very useful.
