You might be AVOIDING plugging in or unboxing a Cricut you've spent money on and feel SUPER GUILTY you aren't using it.
You have a bad case of INFO OVERLOAD after wasting tons of time watching tutorials that just confuse you more.
You are STRUGGLING with the wrong materials because you have no idea what you need or how to use them to get started.
You've tried making stencils but you're just not getting that professional decor look you want.
You find yourself thinking...
"I'm never going to figure out how to work this machine."
"I don't need another piece of technology that is going to stress me out!"
"I just want to make pretty things, why does it have to be this hard?"

Hi! I'm Reta Frekot and I'm so happy you are here!
I love teaching women just like you how to make beautiful decor using their Cricut machines, stencils and paint.
My passion for sharing and encouraging women began when I quit my job as a teacher to stay home my little girls. It was really by accident that I dove into creating a side hustle business of making and selling decor.
But in 2014, I got the devastating diagnosis of Stage 3 colo-rectal cancer. My kids were only 5 and 2. That’s when I started creating and leaning into my love for DIY projects as a means to navigate my way through a very difficult time in our family’s life.
This new found passion allowed me to make the most of every moment and enjoy my life, in spite of my diagnosis, treatment and surgeries. Today, I’m cancer free and grateful to live each day doing what I love and sharing my passion with others in this online creative group.
How do I know you can create stenciled signs and decor with your cricut machine too?
When I started creating decor for my home and to sell, I had no idea what a Cricut was or how to design my own stencils. I was REALLY limited and frustrated that I couldn't customize projects and using those paper stencils from Walmart was taking me HOURS of painful process just to make one sign. I finally got a Cricut and I was so excited but it didn't take me long to realize that the process of learning how to use it was frustrating and SLOW. I was banging my head against the wall trying to figure it out.
I decided there had to be a better way. I dug into my "teacher brain" and knew if I could get through cancer, I could figure this "Cricut Thing" out. I created a method and steps that take out all the guesswork and found the fastest, simplest ways to get you creating without overwhelm!
In my DIY Decor Makers Group I’ve helped hundreds of ladies just like you become experts at creating custom decor with a Cricut. They also have learned how to recreate paint finishes and build small projects!
