Hey Community! :wave:

This past week, the project feed was full of all kinds of makes. Some festive, some practical, and some that started from a simple question and turned into something really lovely. Let’s take a look.

:art: What Everyone’s Been Making

@MaterialGirl shared a beautiful Christmas Crew 2025 Sweatshirt. It feels like the kind of DIY project that’s perfect for bringing a group together and building that team spirit.

@Judi_B made a 4 layer snowflake ornament. The silver and blue shimmer work so well together and really fit the theme.

@MCVDFC shared a Santa Gift Tag. When it comes to the design, they’re firmly in the “less is more” camp, and it really shows in how clean and beautiful the final tag looks.

And a nice story from @tntwalter. After asking a question in the community about using a cutting machine and getting it sorted out, they went on to share Personalized Owala Bottles made with the machine. A great example of how a solved problem turns into a beautiful project.

:speech_balloon: What People Are Talking About

@BellethehowtoGuru noticed more and more questions around calibrating print then cut, so they put together a helpful reference guide for everyone:
Calibrating Print then Cut After V7
Definitely one to bookmark if you’ve been running into similar issues.

@Cory_Barger also shared an honest post about their experience at a craft market or fair:
Rising Strong After a Tough Craft Market
If you’re new to markets or thinking about joining one, this is a really valuable read.

:star2: What’s Happening Around the Community

@Elena added some Christmas touches around the community. You’ll spot string lights, festive details, and Santa hats popping up, all hinting that Christmas is getting closer. Along with that, she launched a fun little challenge inviting you to decorate your machine with holiday elements:
Festive Machine Makeover

She also shared the third round of Daily Check-in. A nice, easy way to pop in, share your mood, and earn rewards.

And @Jodie’s #CozyCreations Weekly Challenge is now live. Join in for a chance to unlock an H10 Heat Press Machine.

That’s the roundup for last week.
From questions to solutions, and from ideas to finished projects, it’s been one of those weeks where everything feels nicely connected. Looking forward to seeing what shows up next.

See you around the community.
