Using a Cricut Explore or Maker? Here's exactly what to do:

~~~~~~~~~~🖤~~~~~~~~~~
Part 1: HOW TO DOWNLOAD
~~~~~~~~~~🖤~~~~~~~~~~

1. Add the Boxer Shorts to your Cart: svgcuts.me/boxers
2. Optional: add another $5.70+ to save 30% w code CUPIDSAVE30 thru Sunday - we suggest our Valentine's Day cards: svgcuts.me/valentine-cards
3. Proceed through Checkout.
4. Download your item/s.

~~~~~~~~~🖤~~~~~~~~~
Part 2: HOW TO UNZIP
~~~~~~~~~🖤~~~~~~~~~

To unzip a file using a Windows computer, you can:

1. Open My Computer (click Start and then click My Computer).
2. Then locate the compressed (“zipped”) folder.
3. Right-click the compressed folder.
4. Click Extract All.
5. In the Compressed Folders Extraction Wizard, specify where you want to store the extracted files.

To unzip a file on a Mac computer, you can simply double-click on it.

The original compressed file can be deleted.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~🖤~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Part 3: FOLDER CONTENTS EXPLAINED
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~🖤~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Your unzipped folder contains three things:

1. An image of the finished design for reference

2. A folder of SVG files - Note: Opening the SVG files directly by double-clicking may not work. We'll be using Cricut Design Space to open them. Also, some computers may display SVG files as HTML files, but rest assured, they are indeed SVG files.

3. A printable PDF “Menu” which provides shape references, diagrams, and valuable tips. You can print it or view it on your computer.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~🖤~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Part 4: HOW TO UPLOAD TO CRICUT
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~🖤~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Next, you'll upload the Boxer Shorts design to Cricut Design Space.

1. Open Cricut Design Space
2. Click "New Project."
3. Select "Upload" from the menu.
4. Choose "Upload Image."
5. Click "Browse" and navigate to the file:

Boxer Shorts SVGCuts
SVG Files
Extras
entire_boxer_shorts.svg

6. Click "Upload."
7. Select the uploaded image and click "Add to Canvas."
8. Click "Ungroup."
9. Click in an empty area of the mat to deselect.

~~~~~~~~~~~🖤~~~~~~~~~~~
Part 5: YOU MUST "ATTACH"
~~~~~~~~~~~🖤~~~~~~~~~~~

Next, you'll need to ensure certain parts stay together. Although they may appear grouped, they still need to be Attached. If they aren't Attached, the software will treat them as separate elements on different mats.
To attach the parts, select both layers of the one "group" and click the "Attach" button.

~~~~~~~~~🖤~~~~~~~~~
Part 6: LET'S MAKE IT
~~~~~~~~~🖤~~~~~~~~~

Click the "Make It" button to proceed to the cutting phase in Cricut Design Space. Continue as you normally would to use the software with your cutting machine. Happy dance! Your pieces are now cut out.

The metal tip on the glue is finer than the plastic tip and the pin (make sure it’s stainless steel so it won’t rust and turn you glue rusty color) is if you’re using the metal tip, or you lose the original cover.
