Can't Fall Behind! DIY Experiment

[@shareepeplinski8028]

The white envelope is like a free print and then the brown one is like a cute earthy reuseable bag for something!

[@poppyfoxart]

Hey Baylee! Could you put a piece of stiff cardstock or cardboard in the brown bags to help the printer grab them and keep them straight and help straighten out some of the wrinkles? I know that might make the process more tedious, but it might be worth trying! Edit: Someone down below mentioned chipboard and I remembered that you put a stiff backing piece of cardboard/chipboard in all your print orders anyway, so if you loaded that in ahead of time, printed it, and left it, that could consolidate one step out of the process and solve the problem you're having. All this assume the printer plays nice with thicker materials like cardboard, but you could always try.

[@VexinglyYours]

This is the perfect solution - I've had to print on bags like this before and have put cardstock inside to feed them through the printer. Hope this helps, Baylee.

[@kerrilanciano]

Any update on your manufacturer reprinting the washis?- I’m hoping for the best for you!

[@madeleinejoyMUA]

I was wondering the same thing! I hope that everything will work out in the end!

[@theintrovertqueenk7947]

For counting the pin backings you can use a long spatula/ palette knife. I work in a pharmacy and we use those to count pills and makes the job a lot easier/faster

[@jjones8165]

If you’re stamping I recommend a stamping platform such as the Misty or the Tim Holt platform. It holds the paper and stamp to make it easier to stamp multiple times. I personally have the Tim Holt one but I have seen the Misty and its very similar.

[@BayleeJae]

I don't need too much fancy stuff since this is a one-time thing. Once I'm through these bags, I will not be stamping again.

[@drake713]

That's how it starts

[@fensalirfiberarts3625]

For the bags it might be worth it to iron the bags, I do this with my patterns for sewing and it works wonders. Just don't forget to turn off the steam option if your iron has one. It's time consuming but it does work.

[@tommy079]

I wonder if the factory process of taking the pins out of the styrofoam is what makes your A/B ratio lower

[@BethanGarlick]

I know it would take time, but would it help to pop some thin card within the brown envelopes to keep them straight as they go through the printer? I just wondered in case it was quicker than having to watch the printer the whole time :)

[@christie-maeneal-thrupp419]

such a beautiful intro Baylee!!

[@IsaSpSp]

Didn't you have that "custom stamp" text that you used for the advent calendars? You could rearrange them to say Baylee Jae. It wouldn't be the right font and would take 3 stamps per bag, but it'd have your name on it too!

[@chronischgeheilt]

You can actually make your own stamps that stick to the acrylic block using your cricut. There's compatible stamp sheets for the cricut that stick on the acrylic blocks. It's called 'Cuttables stamp sheet'. And there is also tutorials online how to make a rubber stamp with the cricut, which is probably better suited for line art because you can glue an uncut rubber block or a wood piece to the cut line art before removing it from the mat. That way the line art won't get distorted. I am not sure if there is a way to glue the cuttables silicone sheets in that way.

[@kawaiilombax]

Have you thought about maybe ironing the brown envelopes??? Put the iron on a relatively low setting, put a towel or something underneath and then ontop too and then iron over them ? I feel like that would help them, or maybe put a REALLY heavy book ontop of them

[@robyndoyle7495]

If you used the white instead of brown one. people might be more likely to reuse the images so it wouldn't go to waste

[@roj6895]

did you mean to say people there?

[@robyndoyle7495]

Yes what happens when you don't wear your glasses lol

[@queenpotato7766]

lol I completely misread your comment, it took me a moment to realize you were talking about white vs brown paper and not white vs brown people hahaha

[@robyndoyle7495]

Haha :)

[@redlin0110]

I agree! With the white envelopes it's like an extra print!

[@im_noah_lynx]

Is there any way to iron the sleeves the prints will be going in? I know that's adding a step, so it's not exactly feasible, but is it's doable, I wonder if that's an option

[@Aerieana]

I was going to suggest this too, ironing the brown sleeves with like a tea towel or pillowcase on top so they don't get too hot and burn, since they're probably quite thin.

[@ringoraven]

I can never get enough of your packaging. So neat and organized 😊

[@aleenakhan6230]

The editing style of the vlogs lately >>>

[@ParasolMushroomStudios]

You could get a cloth to put over each bag and iron the bags flat. My mom has done that for me when I crikled a drawing. If you wanna stick with the stamp you could always carve yourself a little baylee jae stamp :3

[@saryshinobi]

Have you thought about using a pill counter like they do in the pharmacies to count tablets. It makes counting and packaging sooo much easier

[@beckyflateau6356]

If you have time you should try and iron the brown sleeves, then they will lay flat. An extra step I know but worth it because the brown looks so rustic and beautiful

[@TheRedheadArtist]

Those top hat clutches look so much nicer than those butterfly clasp ones, those hurt my fingers so much!

[@emeraldqueen1994]

Baylee, try putting the bags on a flat surface and press them out with the heaviest book(s) you can find!

[@bishopriecke5561]

THe only thing I can think of to fix the wrinkles would be to iron the ends maybe? Like use a block of wood or wooden cutting board for the firmest sruface underneath. At least to help you get through the last of your stash and then you can figure out what you want to do from there. Then again that might be too time consuming. Everything looks really nice by the way, and I'm hoping I didn't miss fall guys today. I'm headed there next for something to watch while I do dishes. Good luck!

[@kaitlin4852]

It's a bit late for this batch, but if you do the locking backs in the future you could maybe try a pill counter like pharmacists use? That would be super satisfying and probably more efficient. (As long as the backs fit but I feel like there are pills as big as the backs so idk?)

[@victoriaspragin]

You should get a stamp positioning tool! The MISTI is a great brand. These will hold your stamps and keep everything in the correct position

[@rachel5741]

Maybe you could insert some card into the brown sleeves, giving it some weight and to keep them straight, to avoid it from crinkling come printing since it hasn’t really got much pressure to apply the ink on.

[@yakairalopez4073]

Why you don't make a nice stamp for envelope sleeves? is probably going to be less of a problem then printing (and less ink) and they can be place anywhere on the sleeves, layer it, change colors ect.

[@RTFULdesigns]

I like the white envelopes for prints, it reminds me of those old fashioned nature illustrations!

[@toastkitten5booklover]

Baylee, that calander in the first shot is absolutely gorgeous! Ahhhh I love your videos so much

[@magicaleevee843]

I might need to get some golden clutches. I do love the colourful rubber ones, but since I have my pins on a bag I take everywhere, I might need something with more grip.

[@PigPancake]

This might sound weird, but why don't you try to carefully to do a light damp ironing with a cloth over for protection of the iron and the envelope. From experience it have worked for me.. It got tested out bc I was once unlucky at the sewing/designer school I went too.. a bottle with water had leaked in my bag and everything in it got soaked, including all my sketches ..had to dry them off somehow.. so was like why not try the iron they had in the classroom.. fortunately it work.. they dried up and i got out all the wrinkles in the paper 😅

[@christinesmith6910]

If you wanted all the stamping on the brown bags to be identical, you can get something called a stamping platform, or a MISTI and you can line the bag up in the corner and have multiple stamps on the platform and you'll get perfect positioning every time and you'd only have to stamp once for each bag :D 🥰 xxx

[@VietAzn31]

might not be conducive, but what if you put in a piece of chip board into the brown envelopes to stiffen them more so you can feed it through the printer easier? They look great though!

[@TheJollyFatElf]

Would it be more cost effective to order pre-printed sleeves/envelopes than printing at home?

[@Ashley.Golden]

Felting needle mat would probably work really well for pushing pins through their backings. I imagine you have a lifetime supply of those chunky cardboard pieces but if you want something more aesthetic go for a felting mat!

[@instagamrr]

Oh i just adore the editing in the beginning! Wonderful work baylee

[@freya-louise6669]

The intro was so relaxing

[@RamoArt]

I always lose my pins and I had no idea you could get those locking clutches. These are gonna be a life saver 🙏

[@robertsunshine]

You can iron the wrinkled brown bags before sending them through the printer. That should make them more flat.

[@sketchingwithaustin9168]

I love your slow transition into a whole cottage core aesthetic haha

[@ashleydee5669]

My friends and I have gone to this park as well. Even if its not back to normal.. the parks are nice to relax with friends.

[@michaelabradham8828]

You should look into a MISTI stamping tool! You would put the stamps directly on it and then it would stamp on the bag in the same spot every time.

[@edgarcardenas5181]

Baylee is out here hitting us with an aesthetic intro. Show them small KZbinrs how it’s done.

[@ashleycalvillo5449]

Cottage core cutie meets Hawaiian emo dad 😂😂😂

[@jessicamiles8917]

Try ironing the sleeves just enough to flatten them

[@ArtboxStickers]

Those brown bags look so adorable! The colored version reminds me of little vintage seed packets

[@Lillybe]

I found that the Stamp Easy system is really good for getting stamps accurate each time, as you don't have to do it manually, you just flip it over and press down. I had real trouble with ink not showing well enough or accidentally jogging the stamp but it let me reink so I didn't have to try lining it up again. Just wanted to mention it. ^^

[@Mermaidbookworm]

You can smooth out the brown bags by using a hot iron with no water. It’s how people straighten money or documents that get wet

[@forestgemcreations]

DRUNK FALL GUYS STREAM HYPEEEEE Also love the vlog see you in the stream 😏

[@BayleeJae]

😝

[@limabean29]

I know it's extra work, but you could quickly iron the notion bags to help the wrinkle jams.

[@aliceadler4569]

What a beautiful table!!! How were the cuke sandwiches??? I’ve never ate them.

[@BayleeJae]

They were really good, and a nice refreshing snack for outdoors.

[@karinalusy]

those flowers just so beautiful.

[@lily_white]

Baylee, to sort the metal clutches, it might help to get that pharmacist sorting tray thing

[@ellie.marilyn]

I love this sm

[@WinryLive]

You could try to press the notion bags to get the crinkles out. Use heavy books on the edges like you did when you make the booklet for Christian's card game score sheets. Let them sit for a day or so and see if that helps?

[@lila22798]

For the brown sleeves, try squishing some in between heavy books and it might flatten them out! Or depending on the type of paper (looks almost like baking paper😂) you could try ironing a pile at the bottom seam to flatten them

[@Moozels]

Very excited for the store update! Hopefully I can get the mushroom girl pin. I just realized this but I think she kind of looks like me!

[@chronicfish]

I've missed Christian's "eyebrow winks" 👀

[@HiddenRainbowsart]

Awww thank you for the raid and the shout out in the vlog! Much love 💜

[@brendafunari5719]

What about pressing the sleeves with your iron? Yet another task 😝 but it may reduce the crinkle factor

[@juneg9547]

What if you iron the brown bags , cover some with a cloth and iron on top of it?

[@gabbywilliamson76]

Wonder if you put a thin towel over the bags and lightly iron them

[@tamsinjohns72]

Looking at the envelopea , the flowers would make a gorgeous print in a brown background xx

[@heatherlangell]

You can try ironing the bags.

[@wolfiee6209]

You could iron the paper bags to try straighten them maybe?

[@strehlowo]

What if for the locking pin backs you did them in packs of eight instead of ten so you could make a bit more money on them (even if its a small amount?) and if you ever get silver ones you could sell them in half and half bags? idk if that's something you want to do though I just thought I'd say this.

[@virginialuvr25]

Could you use the Styrofoam sheets to pin the pins onto the backing cards instead of the cardboard square? Just to get some further use out of them. Or would they crumble up too much?

[@YourFav-.-]

I was looking in your shop and everything is a great price!

[@jennyyy2813]

I think the bags should be plain or just a stamp because that’s a lot of time and money (the ink) put into it

[@totalanimalsoup]

it would probably add too much additional labour, but what if you went over the notion bags with an iron to smooth out the bottom wrinkles

[@sam.anna.ash.]

I swear, I look forward to these videos to see Kiki's antics 🤣

[@ZaiyaFineArt]

i love the monochromatic florals

[@unknownkathryn1255]

I personally like the brown bag for prints...but whatever makes the work easier 😊 Will there be prints for the book cover artM or are those designs exclusive for covers? I have the same 'bearly awake' nightgown it's always odd to see similar stuff on KZbin

[@CristyOrtiz]

Maybe you can iron the bags to flatten them somewhat? I know that’s more work but, 🤷🏻‍♀️, they’re so cute! 😊

[@pre7993]

I like the brown bags for the prints

[@Mlie]

Absolutely love the New pins 😍

[@zhymi2144]

Hello from France love the contemplative style of the intro, I could feel the cottagecoe vibes from here. 🧡 Take care! ☀️

[@DollarTreeDinners]

Counting those pin backings and packaging them would be a lot faster with a pharmacy tray and spatula :) former pharmacy technician, we counted pills on those in groups of 5 and it would streamline things for you

[@Kittys_Creations]

For the notion bags being wrinkled could you separate small stacks (ie say 20 bags) and weigh them with books and leave them overnight then you’d have a big collection of flattened bags that would safely print? I love the look of the packaging and your video intro was beautiful and so aesthetic. On another note.. when you said it’s been 4 years since you got your laptop I was shocked. I felt old. I’ve been following you since your zkittyz days, all through academy and university and now I’m working. But it does NOT feel like 4 years since then 😅 wowie

[@OKPLANS]

What about running the paper sleeves in a laminator first and then print it

[@ablair24]

yes go with the white envelopes in the future, the efficiency will be worth it I think!

[@sophieinspired]

I really like the look of the print on the brown bags 💖💖 could you put something inside before printing to give them more body?

[@ChildOfApollo]

this is going to sound dumb/kinda wild but you could with a low low temp hair straightener iron out the wrinkles (id go for like 100 degrees max)

[@liesbethartlife]

I love your calming intro !

[@Tania_M4]

I also suggest the MISTI for stamping!

[@annnoyez]

Can't you iron these bags?

[@brikhouse22]

that lil laugh @ 2:50 after Christian raises his eyebrows at her lol

[@pameehanson3866]

New to your channel and enjoying your processes 😱 Thanks for sharing and cutie 🥰 kitty❤️❤️

[@drake713]

*eagerly waits 3 months for baylee jae to make her own stamps*

[@cartoondudedoodles8636]

Those closeups are truly aesthetic.

[@angiewarren6045]

Maybe you could iron the bags? You could probs do a few at a time. Did you get the washi tape problems resolved? I

[@deliciousme87]

You could make a lino block stamp at home?

[@redlin0110]

I would terrified to put an open cup of coffee next to product, especially with a Kiki around XD

[@kalikennetic2902]

BAYLEE! What if your put a couple pieces of cardstock in the bags to make them go through the printer smoother? Just a Thought. :)

[@아뤼-g3c]

where do you get your shipping boxes?? white shipping boxes are so hard to find! (minus uline)

[@abbey5699]

First? Also the intro was so aesthetically pleasing😊

[@sherylwalker176]

Your videos are delightful! Have you considered using a pharmaceutical-pill-counting tray to count out groups of your pin backs in tens? Am wondering if this might speed things up for you. Keep smiling, cheers!

[@joannekucks4343]

Can’t you reuse all that tissue paper somehow? I applaud you for trying to use more recyclable materials. Have you considered putting a little statement on cards or stickers about recycling and environmental awareness? 🥰

[@c5689]

i think the light brown hair looks so good on you

[@alyssawolf7511]

Am I going to frame that paper bag? Probably lol. The design is too cute to throw away 😍

[@briannarodriguez61]

Would it work/help if you put chip board into the brown “envelopes”?
