Now that Cricut is also making the Explore 3 the options for the Explore Air 2 might become more limited. Grab the one you want while you still can!

Did you realize there were so many different Cricut colors?!
Whose job is it to come up with and name these colors, and how much fun did they have!?!
Cricut Air 2 Colors
I think it’s really cool how Cricut make so many different Cricut Explore Air 2 colors – I wonder if anyone has them all? I’m sure there’s at least one crazy rich Cricut collector that has, right?!
It’s fun how Cricut only offer certain colors through certain retailers.
Personally, we have the original Mint Air 2, and it’s a color I really like. But if I had to choose again, I think I’d go with… Matte Black, Perwinkle, Persimmon, or Wild Rose… it’s so hard to choose when you see them all lined up!
Here is what you can get from each retailer.
Cricut Explore Air 2 Amazon
Matte Black
Persimmon
Mint
Cherry Blossom
I bought my first Cricut machine off Amazon. The colors are great, the price was right, and the shipping was spot on!
If Amazon have the color you are after, you can’t go wrong. With free 2 day shipping for Prime Members, easy returns if there are any issues, and Amazon’s A-Z guarantee, it’s hard to go wrong!
The Persimmon Explore Air 2 is unique to Amazon – if I had to buy from Amazon again, I might go for this one!
Cricut.com Colors
Raspberry
Sky
Matte Black
Mint
Cricut sell a range of different colored Explore Air 2 machines on their own site as well.
The color that is unique to Cricut is Raspberry. Cricut can generally be more expensive to buy from, but if you sign up to their newsletter ( a pop-up will likely entice you to join up when you click through) you can grab a discount code.
Also, you’re likely to catch one of Cricut’s weekly sales, which often feature Explore Air 2 machines.

Merlot is such a cool color name as well, isn’t it?
Hobby Lobby also often have a discount code at the top of their site. It will be some like ‘40% off one regular priced item’. Whatever it is, it can work out to be a great deal!
The Difference In Cricut Explore Air 2 Colors
What is the difference in the colors of the Cricut Explore Air 2? Is there a difference in the colors of the Cricut Explore Air 2?
As far as I can tell there are four differences:
- the color is different
- the price – some colors are going to cost more
- the shipping details
- some come with the light grip mat, while most come with the standard grip mat
If you choose a model that only comes with the light grip mat, it would be best to pick up some extra standard grip mats as well. The light grip mat is great for working with delicate, thin materials, but for many projects you will want standard grip (Cricut mat info).
Apart from that, it’s all about the color and the price!
What color Cricut Explore Air 2 do you want, and do you mind paying a bit more, if it costs a bit more?

I think Lilac, Wild Rose, or Glacier Blue would have been my first choices. Instead I got an Emersad Green one. The price for it brand new was less then $100. I couldn’t pass it up! (Color doesn’t matter. It doesn’t change how the machine works.)
I have come to LOVE my Emerald Green one. So many people have those pastel colored ones that I am happy to have something less common. Once you see it in person you will be in love! Trust me!
That’s great to hear, Lila! So glad you’re loving your Emerald Cricut. I agree that it’s kind of fun to have one that isn’t the same as you see on everyone’s Instagram page : )
Why are different colors $100 different?
Hey Steve – sometimes Cricut has stopped making a color which can lead to a price difference if there’s big demand for that color. Additionally, Cricut has colors that are sold exclusively at certain stores such as Michael’s that can also be sold at a higher price because they’re more ‘rare’. I’m always a sale shopper myself and would just go with whichever color is the cheapest! Something that’s good to remember is you can always use your new Cricut cutting machine to create designs in the colors you love to add to the exterior of your machine. For example, this octopus design for a Cricut Explore Air 2 is amazing!
What color blue was the michael’s blue?
Hi Lisa – here’s the ‘glacier blue” Explore Air 2 available at Michael’s. They used to have a periwinkle color available as well but it appears to be out of stock. Hope that helps!
Unfortunately, some retailers and online stores show the wrong colors. For example, I ordered a Glacier Blue for my grand niece who is currently into “Easter colors especially pastel blue.” But I wonder if the standard Cricut Blue is closer to an Easter pastel. JoAnn seems to have a far more accurate display of colors as well as organized description of items, as opposed to Michaels (where I ordered the machine from) which comparatively their website is a mess. I really appreciate your comprehensive list of colors and where to find them. I hate to return my grand niece’s gift, but if the other blue is better i will exchange. (She’s turning 9, so she has plenty of time to grow into the machine.)
