[@booknerdktree]

Definitely wanna hear more about the legal stuff please!!!

[@camryns_cute_creations]

You’ve got it!

[@joycrochetco.4437]

I would love a video on the legal stuff! I’ve actually been looking into that kind of stuff this past week but it is so confusing😆 Your channel is SO helpful and one of my favs! Thanks Camryn❤

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Will do! So glad it’s been helpful:) lots more videos coming soon!!!❤️

[@billingaccount5368]

Yes, please do a video about all the legal things we need to know. As always, ty so much for your videos. They are very informative and enjoyable.

[@camryns_cute_creations]

You got it! I’m so glad!❤️

[@kclaree]

Really looking forward to the challenge and market planner!! Yes!!

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Coming soon!!! I can’t wait 😍❤️

[@sandrasanders9290]

Thank you for another helpful video! I like how you have your hats stacked on the shelf behind you.

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Thanks for watching!:)

[@thaciaschmidt1610]

Yes please on the legal stuff! Thank you for putting that in there. I thought you forgot about my questions.

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Sure thing!:)

[@tonimcguire8588]

The insurance thing. Where do you get it? I’ve asked with my renters and car insurance and they told me that they didn’t sell to so small business, a general video on legal stuff would be very helpful.

[@camryns_cute_creations]

great question!! I have a video coming up where I’ll go over some more of the legal side of things! :)

[@Elimayde]

Can you do a video for the newborn baby hats with bear ears please!!!!!

[@camryns_cute_creations]

That one isn’t my pattern but it’s a free one I found on Pinterest:) super easy one!

[@mommajessiesboutique]

Definitely interested into the legal stuff. I'm looking at weeding my through it before this season starts.

[@camryns_cute_creations]

I’ll get working on this!

[@craftzebra]

So glad to know about your channel. I look forward to your videos. Another great one here with plenty of useful information. Yes! Please share more about the legal stuff! I have DBA and sales tax license for selling online. But, I would LOVE to hear more about business license and insurance as I consider selling in a market setting. Thanks Camryn!💕

[@rachelhaywood833]

some states don't have "business licenses" (like Indiana) and the DBA and sales tax license are all that you really need! Those are the hardest to get a hold of in my opinion, so I'd say you're off to a good start!

[@craftzebra]

@@rachelhaywood833 Great to know this. Thank you! I'm in nearby Michigan.🌻

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Yay! So glad you loved the video! I’ll work on a resource for this!❤️

[@susancook1448]

Great idea to photograph your practice set up. I agree it’s necessary anyway. My problem is I’m applying in July for a Nov show and I don’t have a lot made yet. I’m going to use a fall wreath fir the photo even though I’ll have Xmas by then

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Hey, Susan! It's exciting to hear you're signing up for a show in November! I definitely know the stress of not having enough inventory... but I think I might be doing another Market Prep Challenge here pretty soon😉 where I sit down and spend time prepping EVERY DAY with you guys so we're all prepped for our Fall/Winter shows! Keep me updated on how your prep for the show goes! And never hesitate to reach out with any questions!

[@susancook1448]

@@camryns_cute_creations it’s also hard to know this far ahead how many shows to sign up for!! But I may sign up for 3 smaller type ones. Oct, Nov and first Sat in Dec. hope I have enough product! May skip the bigger show that’s a Sat and Sun because that’s too exhausting for me!

[@wendyaustin-gj3rr]

Please do the video on legal stuff, business insurance, business licenses, etc! I don’t know where to start. 😊

[@camryns_cute_creations]

You’ve got it!:)

[@donnathompson6694]

Do have a site where u show how u crochet ur items? Tell me how to find it.

[@camryns_cute_creations]

I have a website where I share blogs and patterns! It’s camrynscutecreations.com :)

[@TheCornyHookerCo]

Yes yes please go over legal info!!

[@camryns_cute_creations]

You’ve got it!:)

[@rebeccapfeifer2376]

Would love to know about licensing/insurance. I need it and have no idea where to start! ❤

[@camryns_cute_creations]

I’ll start working on this!😍❤️

[@KelseyGochnour-xr6zm]

I was hoping you could share who you have for your insurance. I'm having an issue finding someone to write me a policy because I sell items for infants and children.

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Yes I can definitely share this information in a further video! I totally need to go back and check the name of my policy & put together a resource with this info!❤️

[@joanacooper0429]

Video on legal stuff please

[@camryns_cute_creations]

I’ll get on it:)

[@sallsam6045]

Please share with us about the business license

[@camryns_cute_creations]

You’ve got it!

[@sallsam6045]

Awesome 👌 I'm also your Instagram follower.. and you are amazing.. may God bless you because you share with us honestly everything 🙏🏾 ❤️ 💕

[@timothyhempen6101]

pov i aplyed to a market but they have taken 2weeks to reply

[@rachelhaywood833]

That's okay! Unless the market coordinators specifically state in the application "will reply within 1-3 weeks after receiving your application", it's okay to wait for a response. Some markets take up to a month to respond--it usually means that the coordinators are working by themselves, they have a lot to do to organize a lot of vendors, or they're putting the applications through a certain selection process. I'd say, based on my show experience, that as long as you have your answer 2-4 weeks before the event, it's nothing to worry about.

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Yes! They sometimes take a little while to get back to you! All depends on the event!

[@timothyhempen6101]

pov they still havent replyed

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Shoot! Just be patient! Sometimes it take a little bit!
