Carol Olmstead on Apr 17, 2016My niece and her husband have a Cricut machine for making vinyl wall or glass clings. These are removable from painted walls or any surface. There are several price points and they have a website. They bought it when the moved into their new home and have beautiful creations on their walls and have sold enough to pay for their machine several times over. www.cricut.com/MachinesHelpful Reply

Mary Insana on Apr 17, 2016If would think buying a machine for just one stencil would be very expensive plus the learning curve of making a stencil. Check etsy.com or post an "in search of "comment on a local buy sell site or craft sight. Someone out there may cut a stencil for a decent price for you. You can also print out what you want your stencil to look like, trace it on to clear contact paper or any sticky back paper. Cut the design out, stick it on your wall and stencil then pull the contact paper away.Helpful Reply

Keziah on Apr 17, 2016I have been looking at the Circut and others but do not know which one would be best for at least 30" wide stencils. I have already bought a number of wall stencils but I have 24 years of love letters and notes. Plus I like to stencil😀Helpful Reply

Patti C on Apr 18, 2016Buy a Silhouette. you don't have to pay additionally for whatever stencil attachment it is you want, which is what makes Cricut so expensive. With Silhouette, you just download whatever stncil/picture, etc, you want from their website for next to nothing and then you have it forever, plus they give you free stencils every month. Check it out and compare.Helpful Reply

Patti C on Apr 19, 2016You will have to research that. I have never used it for stencil plastic. To be fair, just compare the two machines online and decide which one is best for you. When I bought my Silhouette Cameo three years ago, it was far superior, in my opinion, to the Cricut at that time. Cricut does have a new machine now (the Explore) that many people are saying works very well with heavier materials. So just get informed and make your decision based on what your needs are. Read what others are saying and if you can, talk to people who have owned both.Helpful Reply
