how to start selling your clay art ✿ product ideas, selling online & in-person, things i use!

[@aelisei]

As someone who wants to come back to the art world after almost twenty years away from it, your videos give so much hope and make me believe I can actually do it! Thank you ❤🙏

[@meshakgirl]

Same here ❤

[@danieeccc]

you got it!!

[@CraftyCreativeEvy]

Same ❤❤❤❤

[@oantkowiak1754]

Fingers crossed for your comeback!

[@aelisei]

@@danieeccc Thank you!! 🥰🤗🙏

[@thxwanderer]

Honestly, your videos make me cry a little each time because I feel so encouraged to actually try things that I always put off because I was afraid of failing again.

[@HellzSayzDANCE]

I relate to this so much!

[@rinowen]

Are you reading my mind?? Each video that comes out it’s like you’re making them @ me but at the same time im telling my brain to chill lol

[@deadsetondreams1988]

Another good thing for newer businesses to note is that for packaging you can get FREE mailers, boxes, and thermal packaging shipment stickers when you sign up for a USPS business account, which is also free to do. I am set on thermal shipment labels for quite a while! And I got a cheap thermal printer from Amazon.

[@Thelegendaryskunk]

Honestly, I started on Etsy back in 2010 and I genuinely wish I had put more effort into social media then. I’ve been doing primarily in person markets the last few years but I’m physically exhausted. I planned to take a break and come back to online sales with my website next year and you’ve been my inspiration to continue.❤

[@denlillaormen]

The truth is you have to be good at advertising yourself and/or be very lucky. Otherwise, nobody will notice you

[@Orchidmami]

Why are these comments on every video about how to grow a business? This is so negative and limiting beliefs don’t only hurt you as the comment poster but others who may have a dream and just be starting.

[@Habichl]

We need like a full blown Tammy TED talk because every video you make is truly so inspiring but also informative?! I don't know how you do it, but I'm constantly in awe and telling my friends how you've built an amazing business and art practice. I think everyone kinda wants to be you and it's crazy!!! You deserve all the love

[@claireseriously]

OMG I JUST NOTICED GREEN MACABUN BEHIND HER DESK!!! luv seeing creators supporting each other😍😍

[@gingerrr_]

that’s so cute

[@buzzy_bee4938]

OMG I JUST REALIZED THAT TOO!!!!

[@mackenzigroff9267]

Thank you so much Tammy! I'm 12 years old and I really want to start an Etsy. You have really inspired me ❤. I love your videos!

[@katkitkatrox101]

So excited for you, I had this dream at 12 but my life wasn't healthy enough at the time being under 18 in the home I was and I'm finally able to start it as a source of income at 24. It happens! ❤

[@tarotducheneblanc]

Cherish this dream young one! I'm 44 and coming back to my 12 year old self to listen to what she wanted to do. That's where the gold is. 🥰

[@deadsetondreams1988]

That's wonderfully fantastic, the earlier you set yourself up with your business the more time you will have to become successful, you've got this!!

[@lilacc224]

You are one of my biggest inspirations as a small business owner as well! Thank you for all of the advice and comfy vlogs

[@sayedhashemi2174]

Dear Tammy, Im in 6th grade and at school, we have this class called 'juniour entrepreneur' or something like that. I wanted to make and sell clay stuff, and so I went on KZbin to take some ideas, and I'm grateful that I stumbled upon your channel. You are such an inspiration to me❤❤❤ I love u and tysm for this video it will really help me!!!❤❤

[@princessheah]

Thank you so much for your videos! I'd love one about handling customer problems. I sold online for 10 years but never learned a healthy way to deal with customer issues, so my anxiety got to be too much! I feared my inbox...

[@vimel923]

I never comment on videos, genuinely I stay behind the scenes even though in real life I’m someone who is extremely extroverted and open in praise. But when it comes to art I feel like I hide myself and my thoughts. Still, seeing all your videos has inspired me sooo deeply that I have started calling myself an artist! I’ve never produced anything LOL but that’s what I am and I may as well start believing it even in my speech. I’m so grateful people like you don’t gatekeep and recognize that there’s enough to go around for everyone.

[@elizabeths543]

You’re such an inspiration, I love your art!

[@joemamajams]

You're videos are so sweet, informational, and encouraging Tammy. You've made such a big difference with my confidence of starting my own shop. I can't wait to come back here and let you know when I've made it. ❤

[@cait4340]

Sidenote…the color grading (i think thats what its called) in your video is gorgeous. I love how everything besides the art around your desk is shades of black and white. Idk the colors and the placement of the colors on this video is extremely nice

[@bellisbotanicals]

OMG NO YOU DIDNT. CRYING. Thank you for the shoutout 😭💜

[@TheGardenFolksTV]

this is wonderful i look foward to shaping my bottle collection.

[@ClayBum]

Does that UV resin brand get yellowish over time? I have tried different brands, but they became yellowish after about a year.

[@claygeree]

Thank you for your video. I binge watched your videos and find myself restarting my clay business as well after 4 years on hiatus. Your videos gives me an inspiration and courage to be consistent and market my products. Hoping I can also start my youtube channel the soonest. ❤❤❤

[@AmranbettyTariku]

I'm 13 years old and I'm obsessed with art and creating my own things . I even started my own small biz but now stopped cuz it's final season . I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL ❤

[@qubyyyy]

Hi Tammy! Can you share which video editing tool you are using? ☺️🌸

[@amandac8836]

“As an artist your super power is the ability to make anything.” I LOVE this!

[@Alex-kf1oh]

hi! i watch your video's while making my own clay art and its so therapeutic to watch your content! your little desk friends are adorable and i already have two of them that live on my desk and watch me design! seriously love your work!

[@Mikhaiya]

how to start a small biz: 1. live in the USA

[@tamwithacam]

Thank you so much for all your transparency and tips! Your channel is super inspiring and helpful 😊

[@antoinebertrand8771]

When you say that the sale of your creations is your main source of income, this means that the income you receive from your sponsors is less than that generated by the sale of your creations ?

[@MoofinTheFroggi]

I started an Etsy shop to sell my little clay creations and bracelets, and this video was really helpful to me as a beginner. Like, really, you are such an inspiration to me. Have an amazing day to anyone reading. 🫶

[@RachelAntidormi]

I’ve been watching clay videos on autoplay, and this one started playing. A minute and a half half in and I started to tear up because I really needed this encouragement❤

[@Gondol09]

How much time do you usually spend on each product? I want to make a lot of different things but I have no idea how much of each products I need to make before I list it?

[@LittleAltar]

You really are a cosy business - I feel so calm and centred listening to you🙏🏽❤ I have to say I struggle with social media as it takes up so much time and I genuinely dislike it and being on it. Before socials really were important I'd earn more as an artist by going to a networking art event every few weeks - so much less time! Now even there people only want to see your socials.😞

[@HellzSayzDANCE]

That's a really interesting insight, and very helpful to know, thank you for sharing this. (Also, I agree, socials take up so much time 😑)

[@lamoreart77]

Very informative video, thank you 😊 I have a question - how you make Amazon shop store?

[@kilodeltawhisky1504]

Personally, I dislike packing peanuts. A few items I've bought off ebay came packaged with them, and they're such a mess to sift through. I buy art dolls and those are packaged to the hilt... But it's ok because they're very expensive... I'm kinda surprised your little creations make it through the USPS without damage, but I'm glad it's working for you. Great video! Always love hearing what you share, and seeing how you've blossomed over the past few years! 😘💞💖

[@Rosyv__]

Just went on here to tell you that an indian clay artist looks like shes copying you... even the things you are saying sounds similar

[@cleverchaleigh]

I wanted to ask you if you have tried Amazon merch store & any advice taking that route selling your art?

[@Clownii-y9o]

You have such a warm and kind energy, truly beautiful 💛 keep up the good work!

[@jmll-tcph]

As someone who is still stuck at distributing her products online, I'm struggling to identify where I can get some packaging materials for my products, and how do I ship it when someone has posted his/her order?

[@camilleaustero93]

This is so inspiring! Is it okay to use same oven to bake the clay and bake breada? like not immediaty but simultaneously.. I only have 1 oven and i’m not sure once i baked clay on it i can still use it to bake bread/food

[@josealeman332]

Last time I saw one of your videos was about a year ago.. you have change a lot in a good way, :) anyway I just want to say this is not for every one, you have to be good and very very lucky and even then you may still have problems like me..,lol. I bought everything for this and I learn to do it, I am very handy with my hands but and is BIG BUT my hands are so hot I melt the clay, I never can finished :( .

[@AnhNguyen-bq5kd]

Hi Tammy!! Can you please do a video about tips on resining charms/desk buddies? Thank you!!

[@Aidan_martin]

Hey! I love ur products, I also wanna do the stuff u do, I just can’t choose my name for it, if u can, can u pls help me! (If u want! )

[@aussierayz0018]

Thank you for being so inspiring. I feel more confident and inspired after watching your content. ❤️

[@sharongillesp]

Thank you!

[@user-hh4vp9jl7g]

damn. You're so beautiful... and have a beautiful soul too.

[@julesssjewelsss]

Thank you so much for all your care and lovely videos❣️

[@yohanafransiskatanamatars6588]

i want learn with u, how nto make small bussines to make stabilty my finance, can i learn with u

[@smonline631]

on your place i would make a shop not on shopify but professional one on laravel, so you dont have to pay for comissions on sales and every transaction

[@Nina-wb8qb]

This dropped at the perfect time, just got comfy in bed

[@Emma_johanssn]

People dont want to support me, i uh just got scammed so theres that☹️

[@SirSmudgeProductions]

Excited to try the resin. It's on the way now.

[@thescarydiaries]

the perfect watch for a cozy Sunday☺️

[@azlifaidris5858]

Is it just me but I miss your Coffe baras😢😢😢

[@Silly_splatoon_player]

kinda unrelated but IS THAT GREEN MACABUN IN THE BACKGROUND???? 😍😍😍

[@Champicreations]

Another amazing and comfy video posted from Uncomfy ❤❤😊 I love these videos ❤ One of the first 11 comments

[@journalwithjas]

I have no interest in starting my own business. I don’t even make art 😂 but I love your videos and just have to say you’ve become so much more confident and articulate on camera over the years. I enjoy each and every video ❤

[@porthospatel1683]

Hey Tammy, do you know XXL scrunchie? She's another handmade biz that's really good 😊

[@pattykrabbies]

You inspired me to pursue clay sculpting and to sell my art! This is so helpful, thank you!!

[@BunnyBeanBun]

How do you make your stickers and enamel pins and the papers you use to put the enamel pins on? 🤨 also thank u so much for this video, bc after watching a BUNCH of cute clay artist like you, I might actually start selling my clay ❤

[@NatalieRyan-yg3me]

Hi Tammy! I love your character’s and designs❤. You should make incense holders! I think your characters would already be perfect with a small hole on top for incense and a little tray underneath 😊

[@pq7185]

I just purchased a laser engraver for personal projects and ended up having to buy a bunch of safety equipment to run it. I want to sell some stuff on the side to recover some of the costs and to eventually buy a fiber laser but don't want to do this full time. What platform should I be looking into to sell them for part time only? I really like slate/stone engraving and have some product ideas/original art I can make

[@yuinaxestyle]

Thank you Tammy I'm coming back on my arts from clay to paint. You really help me sooth my feelings to come back again.keep it up!

[@aorapanpisonyabud8421]

Thanks for the advice Tammy! Very lucky to be able to watch this video. I also make polymer clay molds for sale. and are learning about selling online in my own way😖 This video was really helpful to me! Thank you for sharing very great tips. and I wish you have a great day and a lots of smiles! :))🤍✨

[@pb_and_nutella]

Which thermal printer do you use? And where do you buy your labels from? These videos always warm my heart, thanks for sharing :)

[@verniyasutton5571]

I wanna start a clay earring business but I don’t know how much polymer clay to purchase 😅 if someone knows I’ll truly appreciate it 🙏

[@venusdawson903]

I love how you are so open to sharing and as someone who is looking to kickstart something (no creative background). I actually feel empowered that all is possible 🎉 love your videos so much!

[@Chloe-tn2zd]

If you haven’t built a large audience yet, would you recommend having both an Etsy and selling on your own website?

[@mackenziepoisal7820]

I’m wondering… How do you shop at her store? Does she run a store at the Saturday market or Etsy?? Please someone help me I’m very confused lol 🥲

[@whoknows6136]

Great video - though I think including your thoughts on pricing would have been even more beneficial.

[@Christina24life]

This video made me envious and now I’m an even more depressed 40 year old who feels like a complete failure than ever before. Teenagers managed to create $100,000+ businesses all by themselves.

[@xyzzz4788]

You can start now ☺️✨ You have got this! 💪🏽🩷

[@tarotducheneblanc]

I'm 44 and I will be starting a channel on that! Starting my own art business late in life... you can do it too!! ❤

[@ellascottagecompany2044]

I’m 53 and about to start again. It’s never too late 😊❤

[@rebeccabattistoni9795]

Your videos make me feel so much more propositive and happy. Thank u 💖

[@jayrhythmic5373]

Thank you so so much for helping my mind understand how this all works. Still something that’s scary but learning from you made me feel like I’ll find a way also. I use to just watch your channel because you calm my mind and have pretty work. So glad I ran into this video tonight. ❤

[@MoniqueHung-cq8sn]

love these entrepreneurship videos! thanks for sharing tips! also where is your floral necklace from

[@ChitoToda]

Hello Tammy ! Thank you so much for all those informational videos on small business & being an artist. It has nothing to do with my own job (I'm a records manager) but I love understanding how other people work !!!

[@Celesty_xo]

Hi Tammy I just want to say your vids have been super helpful and inspiring for my crochet business and I can’t wait to see more of your face! luv u🌷🤍

[@MikeCampo]

Good stuff. I've learned a lot about the process from you over the last couple years and this fills more gaps, so thanks!

[@Takkaho]

I'm not even an artist but I watched the whole thing because it's so soothing to hear you talk. Thank you❤

[@Beatitude8]

U look like cute fairy❤

[@liza6386]

thank you very much for your videos and info! amazing!

[@RHrrrrrrhhhhhh]

Thanks Tammy, always so much wonderful info 🐨💞👏🏼

[@HazelBalajonda]

can you do a video on how you run a business and be a youtuber? ❤

[@malurus2]

i'm going to start using polymer clay for fun soon! theres so many things i want to make

[@loserasaurus_]

starting one of my own small businesses with my best friend is genuinely my dream and you give me so much hope for the future, thank you so much

[@wnyrora]

is its just me or she soooo cute to the point she literally looks like her cute clay art 💓😭😭

[@ellascottagecompany2044]

You are an extraordinary person, thank you for being so kind and caring ❤

[@EclecticcMind]

As someone who is very introverted, I probably can’t do booths and events so I heavily rely on my website and social media. I do hope to become a more confident person so I can do things that require me to be seen 😅 and I know being more confident will help my business grow 🌷

[@Maya-f9s9b]

Go for it now. Being shy and introverted is all in your head and the more you tell youreself it, the more you manifest it. Do you want to be a grandma sitting in regret or do you want to tell your grandkids how you sold your art at all those vendors? Like what is the worse that can happen? Someone doesnt buy your stuff? Someone thinks your ugly? Soo???? Do ittt

[@talisarose480]

This was a really useful video, thank you ❤

[@alicec.6195]

Your tips are great and practical, thanks! 😁
