Hi! Can't wait to check out your stickers! Love your vlogs Annika! Best of luck! 🌟🌿

[@livenchen8860]

Omg congratulations 😍!

[@ashleighmarie7411]

I love that people create their own small business like this and I wish I had the money and the time to do it myself because it looks like so much fun. Good luck with your business.

[@pinkbow_reader]

If u ever decide to start a business, I wish u all the best of luck

[@emptyempty4238]

Same, my income is way too little to ever start one. Especially with school debt and necessities/other payment. I think im just going to slowly buy stuff throughout the years and design stuff as well. Then eventually, ill start making them.

@@Kiera_Therian what off?

[@Kiera_Therian]

I can't now because I found out that you have to be eighteen and up🙁😢😭

[@meandmyimagination4151]

Same. I wanted to have my own business related to comfort characters merchandise, BUT Italy sucks on giving life to small businesses. So I have to wait to have more money to actually start,and it made me so mad! I actually cried! But that's what we have. I get everything ready, but taxes here are HELL on earth. Impossible to live to. But I hope Annika gets all the success. I enjoy looking at what she's doing, is so good. So i decided to support her by subscribing. Basically in Italy for opening a small shop online you need the vat number, but that costs,like A LOT! And well ... waiting is patience they say, and you can't do much but simply wait.

I think the most helpful thing about this video is seeing you get through the parts that aren't as much fun. I'm in the same process and sometimes I think that if I'm not passionate about every little thing I'm doing I shouldn't be doing it. NOT SO of course, there are always things that are just mind numbing in any line of work, but they need to get done.
