Reading the best craft blogs is a surefire way to inspire and excite us to get to work with our vinyl cutting machines.
Whether it’s following video tutorials, reading reviews of new machines or experimenting with new features, we can’t get enough of our favorite crafty blogs.
We love them so much, in fact, that we segment some time each week to reading the latest blog posts. Not to mention taking advantage of any of their free SVG files giveaways…
A reader emailed us last week to ask for our recommendations for the best craft cutting blogs.
She was struggling to get inspired to try new things with her Silhouette Cameo.
There are only so many times I can cut out my kids’ names next to a cute animal!
We feel you!
Sometimes it’s worth getting design inspiration from other people — especially when those people are creative, crafty bloggers.
So we’ve decided to round-up our favorite craft and cutting blogs for your delectation.
Some of these are super concentrated on craft cutting, while others are more general purpose crafting with the occasional foray into personal die cutting.
We love them all — let us know which are your favorites in the comments!
The Best Craft And Cutting Blogs
Silhouette School
Our number one favorite resource when it comes to everything Silhouette Cameo is always the Silhouette School blog.
They have tutorials on everything — and I mean everything — to do with Silhouette, and it’s always to them we turn when we need to troubleshoot something with our machine.
As well as how-tos, video classes and books, they’ve also got a host of free advice, inspiration and freebies to soak up as well.
We’ve got a lot of value from their Silhouette for Business resources in the past, and would also recommend that you check out their paid membership options for Silhouette U — it includes ad-free video tutorials, commercial cut files, weekly office hours and live Q and A sessions. There’s also a private Facebook group to really inspire a sense of community.
Silhouette School is run by Melissa and her husband, Bob, and is generally regarded as something of a goddess in the Silhouette cutting community thanks to her ever-so-popular blog!

Every holiday, occasion and style is catered for on Lia Griffith.
We love her weekly video tutorials and her paper crafts are exquisitely beautiful. She also got a bounty of SVG cut files — both free and paid — to download that you can procure for your own cutting projects.
