The Cricut tool kit is a kit containing tools used to work with cut-outs made by a Cricut machine.
The tool kit includes a pair of scissors small enough for intricate work, a scraper tool, bone folder, craft knife, scoop tool, and a hook tool. These are stored together in a convenient zip-up transportation and storage container.
Some of these tools are simple enough, like scissors for example, but some need some explanation. The scraper allows you to quickly clean up all of the leftover paper shreds. The bone folder is used to score and crease paper to create three-dimensional shapes or geometric designs. The craft knife has a number of possible applications, and comes with a square flat area that can be used for sliding beneath the paper. The scoop tool lifts small pieces of paper from the mat. The hook tool can be used for circular applications, including the cleaning of small holes and removing circles of paper.
Despite what the name may imply, the Cricut Tool Kit is not limited to use with the Cricut machine. The tools can be used with any cut out devices, or, for that matter, for any crafting projects. The bone folder, especially, can be commandeered for use with children’s crafts, and the hook, scraper, and scoop have numerous potential household applications.
Additionally, many of the tools work in tandem, so it is helpful to have them in the same size and design to facilitate ease of use. The storage container is helpful not only in keeping your scrapbooking tools organized and complete, it also hides them from the view of other family members who might want to swipe your hook tool or scoop your scoop tool for any of the many other potential applications of the highly adaptable Cricut Tool Kit.
