Every year, we start the school year with the same hopes for our daughters… for it to be the best year yet. This year is a little bit different though. The girls won’t be going to physical school. We didn’t have to purchase a cart’s full of supplies or uniforms. We don’t have to worry about waking up hours before school starts and driving them to three different schools, or picking them up for that matter. So this year, while everything is totally different, I wanted to make sure I brought a little normalcy to their days. I knew the best way to do that, was to pull out my Cricut Joy and create a little magic. I thought I’d share all of the great Cricut, back to school ideas I found. 

Back to School Chalkboard Sign Photo Prop

This adorable chalkboard sign photo prop idea from Mommyhood Life is perfect not only for this year, but for years to come. I love the idea of decorating a chalkboard that can be wiped clean and changed every year!

Tissue Boxes

I am loving this cute tissue box idea from But First, Joy. They are great for your kids room, for your homeschool space or even as a teacher gift!

Customized Backpack

My girls want a new backpack every single year. But if I can squeeze two years out of them, it’s a win. So I love this customized backpack idea from Creative Ramblings! I can customize last year’s backpack and it gives them a totally different look!

First Day of School Pennant Flags

We tend to print out a paper every year and snap a first day of school pic. But this year, we wanted something different.  I love this first day of school pennant flags idea from At Home with Ashley!

  • These projects are fabulous! I don’t personally have a Cricut, but this post makes me wish I did! I especially love the planner stickers as I could see my 11-year-old Daughter LOVING that!

  • I love how you can personalize those face mask this is super great thank you for all these projects ideas.

  • You made some great stuff here. I really like the backpack. It’s a real statement, which is such a power move for the kids heading back to school.

  • These are all so cute! I had no idea the Cricut was so versatile. For some reason, I thought it was limited to paper crafts. That’s amazing.

  • This is super cool. There is so much to choose from and I am loving these ideas! I’m new to the Cricut life, but while I have no children of my own, I’m a hands on Aunty and I am especially about the customization of the mask, the backpacks and creating some teacher appreciation gifts for this new school term will need adjustments all around. Great ideas and I loved the post!
