🔥 BEGINNING LASERING JOURNEY – TIP OF THE DAY! 🔥 ✨ TIP #1: START WITH THE RIGHT MATERIAL! ✨ One of the biggest lessons when starting your lasering journey is knowing what materials are safe to laser. Not everything can—or should—go under the laser! 📌 Start with laser-safe materials like untreated wood, approved acrylic, leather, and coated blanks specifically made for laser use. ⚠️ Always check the manufacturer's material information and safety guidelines before lasering! 💡 Start simple, test your settings, and keep notes of what works. Your settings library will become one of your BEST tools as you grow! ❤️ 🔥 Remember: Every mistake is just another lesson on your lasering journey! #BeginningLasering #LaseringJourney #LaserTips #LaserCrafting #LaserEngraving #CraftingTips #JesssCraftTherapy #MakerLife

Tip of the Day
🧵 Embrilliance Tip of the Day Did you know? Your hoop size matters! Before you start editing your embroidery design, select the correct hoop size first. This lets Embrilliance show you the actual embroidery area available and helps prevent accidentally creating a design that is too large for your machine. 💡 Quick Tip: The hoop’s physical size and the machine’s usable embroidery area aren't always the same. Always check your machine’s maximum embroidery field before sizing your design! Jess’s Craft Therapy Tip: Measure twice, stitch once! 😉🧵

Week 1 Prep Needed
✨ Hello, Lovely Crafters! ✨ This week, I’ll be teaching some VERY basic items in Embrilliance to help get you comfortable with the program and ready to explore all the possibilities! 🧵🖥️ 📌 What You’ll Need BEFORE Class: 🌟 3 basic small-to-medium embroidery designs ready to use during class. 💡 Creative Fabrica is a great place to find some! 📚 I’ve also put together a handout that I’ll post Sunday morning for you to review and print before class if you choose. Once again, I want to give a HUGE THANK YOU to everyone for your encouragement, gentle bullying, and rave reviews that have helped me step outside of my comfort zone and push myself beyond what I thought possible. ❤️ I’m excited to learn, create, and grow with all of you! 🧵✨ See ya Sunday! ✨🧵
