If you're anything like me, you love finding tools that make designing easier, more fun, and actually inspiring. Recently, I started playing around with a platform called Cuttle, and it’s quickly becoming one of my favorite places to create and explore.
What is Cuttle?
Cuttle is an online design editor made especially for laser cutters and plotters. What makes it stand out? It’s browser-based (no downloads!), incredibly user-friendly, and packed with ready-to-use templates you can customize—or you can start completely from scratch.
Whether you're just getting started with your laser or you’re looking to streamline your workflow, Cuttle gives you full control of your vector designs with features like live boolean operations, pattern fills, editable text, and parameter-based shapes.
What I Love About It
-
Live Previews: You can adjust your designs and immediately see what they’ll look like.
-
Parameter Controls: You can tweak one shape and it dynamically updates. So cool for repeating elements!
-
Community Templates: Browse ready-made files or remix designs created by others.
-
Smooth Export: SVG exports are super clean—perfect for Glowforge, xTool, and other laser cutters.
Try This Flower Name Tag with Me
I made a full tutorial on how to create a flower name tag using Cuttle, and it’s surprisingly easy—even if you’re not super confident with design tools yet. You can follow along with me on YouTube here:
This project would be adorable for backpack tags, place settings, or even gift toppers. It’s completely editable and beginner-friendly.

You can try Cuttle for free and see if it works for your style and workflow. I genuinely had fun exploring what’s possible—and if you're in a creative rut, it's a great way to spark new ideas.

Final Thoughts
Designing doesn’t have to feel intimidating. Platforms like Cuttle open up so many possibilities—even for those of us who feel more like makers than designers. I can’t wait to make more tutorials using Cuttle and explore how to use it for more advanced layered projects too.
