I’m sounding ignorant, but when you had the lady send you the colors of embroidery threads that she wanted on her five sweatshirts you said you digitalize them what did you mean by that and how do you do that? I really really am having fun watching your videos

Do what you need and want. You have two babies so you have plenty to do but I just want to say that I hope you will do posts where you aren't doing voice overs because I think you have a wonderful personality. I have watched a few of your embroidery vlogs and enjoyed them so much partly because of your personality and sense of humor. I wish you huge success in whatever you do. 💛💚

Get a metal chopstick or just a metal stick looking thing and place it against the cup and into the funnel as you pour. Liquid physics will allow it to follow the stick with no spill Edit: I say metal so it’s easier to clean and reduce waste

If you want things to last you put embroidery on it and you put it on good quality materials…..if your husband goes through a lot of clothing then it does not matter if the design transfer cracks because you are not wasting money on quality shirts or embroidery. Pointless embroidering on things you go through quickly.
@Kendraaspencer9 ай бұрын
In his service industry where clothes can get dirty quickly, I can see your point. But he can also reserve the embroidery shirts for days where he’s only out bidding for jobs and meeting people. It’s worth it to me!

Hello, I hope you are well! I want to congratulate you on your journey. I bought a Janome MB4 Multi-needle embroidery machine. I'm trying to make extra money from embroidery and sublimation, however not sure how to advertise on social media. Can you give me any advice please? I'm a counselor, my wife just was terminated from her job as a caseworker with DSS due to a vehicle accident in their vehicle which was not her fault, so I'm trying to replace that income. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thank you.
@Kendraaspencer11 ай бұрын
Sorry to hear about the unfortunate circumstances effecting your family! As far as social media marketing goes, I would start with making it known that you are taking orders for the holidays coming up on your personal accounts and link your business page. Get a logo and name and make business cards through FedEx and take them into local businesses asking if they need any sweatshirts, beanies, or any other apparel for employee gifts or new uniforms. My largest order this year, I think around $1,500 was from a local business that wanted to give jackets away at a conference they were hosting, and tote bags with their logo on it. Hope you get some good orders going!
