How to Make Stickers From Home (Any Budget)

[@jessicaskibicki5772]

You should 100% have a SkillShare class! Your teaching style is amazing

[@shaharyarkhan7618]

Hey Tim, I've been following you for over a year and watched all of your Sticker Store Series - I've finally started my own e-commerce store dedicated to sticker business. Thank you so much for really putting the value out there and making me start my first business. Love from Pakistan ❤

[@shelly6015]

Hey bro, what equipment did u use and where did u buy it from in Pak?

[@alexanderpichler9263]

Please share how you make stickers today with the "big boys": which machines, how the setup works in the software, how you put the individual names in it, etc.

[@kalirally]

Yes, I’ve been wanting to see the same!

[@blackbrandlife]

Yes, I agree. If he was transparent he would’ve done a video on current printing machines, cost and setup versus this video 🤔 I would rather save up, than to buy this setup, then it be obsolete within a year of buying them because you had out grown this set up.

[@ffskecthbook]

Yes, please

[@UnbrandedLifestyle]

He IS transparent. And he’s not obligated to share everything if he doesn’t want to.

[@UnbrandedLifestyle]

If you actually watched to the end he even links you to a video of what he currently uses.

[@LlesiSea]

I am definitely interested in "sticker content", because 1) i'm also an artist and have wanted to do stickers for ages. now i'm at a place where it looks more viable than before. and am starting to look at printers and printer paper. Where to start?help. 2) I'm located in the EU (Netherlands) and am having trouble finding EU manufacturers / supplies. For example, sticker paper that is see through without a white background, and products here tend to show photoshoped images and not showing what it actually looks like when you hold it/not showing the back side/etc. 3) just genuine curiosity as to how others organise and set up their "pipeline" at home so I can better mine. I like to be tidy. So please make more videos about stickers !!

[@MrEtrigger1]

One of the best sticker\business\motivator speaker out in the crazy world of youtube. When I see ur videos I feel inspired and energies to keep pushing my small sticker shop. Thank you!!

[@aroncontinuousconversation]

Yes please. A full review would be great. Thanks

[@TakeMeOnTour]

A video going into more detail on the Graphtec cutter and Roland printer you use would be great to see. Thanks for the video.

[@joancharles3529]

Thanks for the useful information - I would love to see more sticker content.

[@phillippia]

I would love a walkthrough of how you use the Graphtec cutter (design, software,etc).

[@charlottel518]

hi! i am planning my own sticker business so i would love to see more sticker content

[@agataklein6831]

Love your videos! Please post about your cutters and also your setup. Especially addressing the laminating aspect for waterproof. Thanks

[@m.m.c.9463]

Already using Skill share! I hope to finish creating my stickers very soon. Thanks for the tutorial!!!!!🎉

[@ModernIntuitionist]

Another beautiful and useful video, I loved watching your art process from drawing to printing! Thank you

[@beingemma]

Thank you so much for this! I have been dabbling with the idea of adding stickers to my shop to see if people would like them but didn't want to invest in the cutter until I knew it was of interest. This is a great way for me to see if my customers will like them.

[@kikicz1637]

Yes, please more info. on cutters! Thanks so ,much for these video's. I really appreciate the clarity, how concise & simple, plus you approach it from newbie & onwards. Very interested in sticker content, also, if you could go more slowly when showing the adobe steps it would be easier for those of us who are starting out & have learning disabilities. I found myself getting overwhelmed & my brain just shut down but I wanted to understand it. I went to the transcript but I am a visual learner & need both. God bless!

[@Fasttrack001]

Great video Tim! Very helpful to know how simple it can be to produce stickers. I’m interested in seeing more videos on the digital products you’ve created. Thanks!

[@db.digital]

Thank you so much! This was such a straightforward, easy to understand video. I appreciate you showing how its possible to start with what you have and grow from there.

[@tammi_willis]

You were fundamental to my early days working out how to start making stickers! Love your videos (especially the sticker related ones)

[@elizabethoniri6525]

More information on cutting on domestic machine please. Thank you for sharing, i really appreciate it.

[@alexandervanlohen4229]

I would love to hear more details about the sticker business! But videos about your current work would be great, too! Thanks for the insights!

[@tishspirationstation2845]

I am absolutely interested in your thoughts on the current popular hobby cutting machines. When I am ready to invest, I want to make the best choice. Silhouette was recently recommended to me, and the staff at my Michael's Store told me they will not be carrying them very soon, they are selling them off and not getting more. I do not use adobe, though. Would you consider a tutorial for illustrating stickers in canva? Is that even a thing? I think you are in Canada, and either way, hey from New Brunswick!

[@kuroneko2097]

You can't illustrate in Canva, it is more of an editing software. Canva is where you can bring everything together for finishing touches etc. Adobe softwares help you do stuff from A to Z. However Canva recently acquired Affinity which is a competitor for Adobe so we are hoping to see some changes in Canva. Also, although many people use cricut, there are many who switched from cricut to Cameo and never looked back.

[@tishspirationstation2845]

@@kuroneko2097 I want to adapt my own drawings, on paper, to be available as digital downloads and stickers. Any advice on how to make this happen? I am going to be working on my drawings in the next few weeks. I am leaning into artwork and stickers for bullet journals and other journals.

[@yaoseesthepath]

I really love all your videos! My 10 years daughters are starting their sticker business. Your video is so useful! Thank you a lot!

[@galgosberlin1560]

First of all thanks so much for share your Knowledge. With my small group of art Students I try to Producer and Sell own Stickers. I am an Artist with Not the best technical knowledges. But I love to learn more

[@THESONSOFISSACHAR]

please do a review on circut and the other machine I am a beginniner Please, Thank you

[@jennykay780]

I would highly recommend the silhouette. The software is extremely easy to use. Word of advice though. Buy your machine from an actual store. Everyone time I’ve ordered a machine from online it doesn’t cut properly. I guess from all the shaking during shipping. But whenever I get one from the store it cuts properly from the start.

[@christylove5807]

I converted to Procreate and I'm never going back! Great video! ❤

[@joyusagi]

Thank you so much for sharing!! I would love to see more videos about sticker making!

[@eesock]

Please create more content on how one can start! It is inspiring... Thank you Tim!

[@tlh878]

This was a great video! My husband and I own three sizes of button makers and are wanting to get into making stickers as well (just for fun) and this is so helpful!

[@NurturedbyNatureStudio]

Thanks for sharing this, I’ve been meaning to add stickers to my shop so this is helpful and timely! 👍

[@user-rh9on7el3g]

I plan to make stickers as well. Thank you for simplifying and sharing your process! Tim always make it do-able and attainable. 🎉 thank you so much

[@ElieBeth___]

This was a clear breakdown of your process and would love to see more! I liked hearing your thoughts on the cricut vs other one because cricut is everywhere it's nice to hear other pov

[@RingoWild]

Your straightforward delivery is so refreshing. You put a lot of info in this video, and despite what you say, it still feels a little intimidating. However, I realize there’s a learning curve in any new endeavor. I’ve used photoshop for years, but I’ve never tried illustrator. There have been so many instances when I think illustrator is exactly what I need. So you do not use procreate? That seems to be so popular these days. You said you use an iPad, so you use it specifically for drawing and then your desktop for editing? Thanks again!

[@TheCookieSensei]

Very helpful, thank you!😊

[@ilovehandmadestuff]

I was just thinking of ur videos a few weeks ago …amazon prime made me order a pen lol for my iPad and yay I got skill share trial.

[@MichaelCordeiro]

Do cutting machines like the cameo or silhouette actually print the stickers and cut them too? Like it takes care of both things?

[@RainierNaomi]

thank you so much for sharing! I've been thinking of starting my own sticker shop on etsy and I didn't even know a spray coating is another option to protect stickers!

[@Mamiya-Kids-Chinese]

Man your vibe is so relaxing and I feel like I'm in DT Toronto again. Really nice to see you are one of the top sticker man onKZbin. I just started my kids channel and getting ready for sticker shops as well. Your advice is so straightforward and valuable, thanks a lot! If you live in Toronto maybe we can meet up one day :D

[@petrag.4092]

Thank you for the encouragement!🙏

[@gaylepuou7214]

I'm very interested in sticker making. Just purchased a drawing tablet. Have everything else. Enjoy your videos.thanks.

[@delacruzisaacowenj.9558]

love your contents ❤ interested in discussing about your commercial equipments like that Roland Printer and the Graphtech Cutter please also discuss about the ink thank you and more contents to come from Philippines here 🇵🇭

[@Productive_Pulse23]

I really like the way you have implemented the real-time customization feature on your website. Which app are you using for that?

[@sachaairian]

great video! thank you!

[@olivia1853]

Thanks for your content!! Can you talk about how to create demand?

[@Xkyrynn]

A comparison between some of the top printer/cutter machines would be fantastic please!!! 🙏🏼

[@misosoupafly]

I signed up to skill share because of your great content! Thanks for sharing on how to make stickers. It’s super helpful to show how to add in the cut lines 👍🏻 my fav cat is #5

[@raniamohammed1437]

I need a desk set up tour and how you get your lightening to be so warm and cozy please

[@ohsopaperco.8118]

I am interested in laminating roll options as I have a wide format printer so the sheets do really make sense for me.

[@jenniferanngoebel875]

This was also very helpful because figuring out how to use the programs for cutting can be confusing.

[@reddesert3521]

I love your sticker content

[@NeilWick]

Stickers are the reason I subscribed to your channel. Make more sticker videos and I will definitely watch.

[@mirelyc]

Please keep making Sticker How To's vids. Just came across your channel and LOVE it! Thanks :)

[@sheilawilliams6282]

I really enjoy hear about how you create stickers

[@ScanapickCoZa]

i'm in the process of starting stickers, I bought a laser printer...The first laser sticker paper was amazing, then the heat came and they started curling off the page :(... then i got other paper that was nice, but don't stick if you overlap them around pens and stuff.:(... i can't justify a ecosolvent printer at this stage and i want to give out good quality stickers, so i went to a sticker shop (lol) that has a huge printer and cutter and explained my situation. They helped me do a better setup to take more advantage of the vinyl(i used a cricut and it wastes a lot of space) . Now I give them the image and cut lines and they just print and cut it for me, (faster and better than i can do it) and we both make money. (now i don't plan on getting BN 20a anymore) btw: i love the videos, really packed with info, i never miss any new videos u make 🤩

[@1wildwackywoman]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience.

[@alexanderhoffmann1542]

Which material are you using for your turtle tag stickers?

[@miriamrobarts]

I've been wanting to try this. Thanks for the tutorial! Your cat stickers are so cute! :)

[@dameanvil]

- 00:00 💰 Stickers are a great low-cost option for artists to sell, as they are inexpensive to make and easy to ship. - 00:27 🛠️ The creator emphasizes starting with simple, affordable equipment for sticker production, before scaling up to more advanced tools. - 01:52 🖌️ Drawing skills can be learned and improved, with minimalistic and Kawaii styles being popular for stickers. - 02:49 🖨️ Printing stickers can be done with any home printer, with multiple paper options available depending on quality and budget. - 05:00 📉 Not all sticker paper is equal; lower-quality paper may be suitable for giveaways but not for selling. - 05:54 ✂️ Stickers can be cut by hand with scissors, especially if you’re starting small or selling on platforms like Etsy. - 06:30 🤖 For larger production, investing in a cutting machine like Silhouette or Cricut is recommended. - 08:57 🗂️ Setting up proper cut lines and registration marks in design software is essential for precise cutting, especially when using a cutting machine. - 11:51 🔄 The process of cutting stickers can vary slightly depending on the machine, but the basics remain the same. - 12:00 ⚙ Cut settings vary by paper and machine, so testing and adjusting settings for your specific setup is necessary.

[@priscilla9593]

yayy! i love sticker content

[@Onecolorfulmama]

Im just starting the sticker fun! I love this

[@AlexaJanell]

Incredible tutorial! Thank you 🙌🏽

[@louisebrown710]

Would ❤ more videos

[@karriekam23]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge! Your tutorial is educational packed with info! May I know how do you manage your order and online store when you are away, say for a holiday? Would you put the store on hold and not accept orders?

[@14arul]

Great explanation.. Yes please do one at cutting machines.

[@SportzMitraMitra]

which printer is good for printing quality sticker on sticker paper

[@juliannpho]

Yes, stickers! Great content as always. Is there a smaller Graphtec option? My success with the cricut hasn't been the best. Adobe is a better way & plug-in is awesome!

[@ivonbhonsley9421]

i am currently searching on a laminate matte vinyl to place on top of the stickers can you make a video comparing vinyls ?

[@abmi2]

What was the skillshare class you recommended? Apologies, a bit hard to hear.

[@Imbetter922]

Buisness idea for yall If yall cant draw than copy and paste what i mean is copy it off of a tablet,phone,computer,etc but make sure you add stuff to it

[@everydayhustling]

Thanks for sharing Tim, I'm thinking about getting into making stickers since it would be a great add on for products I currently sell on amazon.

[@DNT884]

Can you please tell me the function of the cutting plotter that cuts the back of the media and the model of your Graphitec plotter?

[@lilymagon1234]

I'm wanting to start my own business selling stickers so would love more sticker content

[@candicewhite5935]

I loved this video. I say yes to more sticker content

[@notAsoccerMom]

Love your work but do customers mind that they're printed with inkjet? Don't they smudge if they get wet?

[@evarodriguez4711]

Following this! I need to know

[@markhamilton8765]

He laminates his stickers before they go in to his cutting machine. Check his other videos first his process.

[@jefawk9603]

really cool love the big machines lol, my cricut explorer 3 is a piece of hot garbage ♻

[@kle1701]

Great vid! Thanks! All the cats get my vote. 😂

[@thieunguyen-ky2hq]

Please make more stickers videos. Very informative.

[@carolinag1939]

Hi Tim, Can you recommend an app that I can use to draw to start with? I don't have Adobe Illustrator and I'm not sure about getting it just to start because it would probably be costly.

[@springnicole]

How do you make the sticker sheets where you can peel individual stickers off?

[@AnnieZ265]

thanks for such a informative video! I'm now learning how to making the stickers, just see this one, very nice! for waterproof sticker, as you said, it can be lamilated. would you pls share how to use laminated paper for sticker and how to cut it in machine. thanks!

[@lucasvannatter8712]

What printer are you using for sticker print :)?

[@florenciasalas6215]

Are the stickers safe to put on car bumpers or windshields?

[@Locentales]

[@stomach_acid4783]

Thank you for this rad tutorial :D

[@TeastyWaves68]

thank you sharing.

[@mycleanskin]

Thank you for this video! It was exactly what I need. I have a question. When I use a cutting machine (I use Silhouette now but am interested in Graphtec) with vinyl sticker paper, I notice that paper dust sticks to the sheet. It's really hard to wipe off the dust when preparing the product for sale. What can I do to make this easier?

[@HannahDRose]

what camera do you use tim?

[@AvocadoPotatoOfficial]

HI! I was wondering what tablet you draw on is called? I've been trying to find it for a while :\

[@phillippia]

Hi @TimKoa Is there a machine that falls between the Cameo and the Graptec? Not as small/limited as the Cameo but not quite as big/ expensive as the Graphtec? Looking for printer cutter combo or just a plain cutter.

[@lindsayhorne1009]

[@ainsleyfrastructurekpopmashups]

Thanks for this video. I discovered this channel ever since I'm looking for YT resources about digital products. I will include stickers as I progress in my digital products journey but I have a question: If ever I want to convert stickers from digital into a physical product, is there any printing services in my country, the Philippines. On the other hand, do you ship to the Philippines and does it have resell rights? If ever, I will resell your digital products but in a much better way and in a local version of Etsy?

[@segaeru]

Cat stickers is something cute in the world for me 🤍
