making in the new studio space, heat pressing tote bags, packing shop orders | studio vlog 34

Welcome to the first official #studiovlog of the year! In this vlog I start out by heat pressing some new tote designs from start to finish for my Potty Mouth shop, and I prep and package orders from my first shop update. I also take a trip to home depot to buy plants so I can turn the studio into a jungle. Hope you enjoy!

Congrats on successful shop update! Also I love how the dogs act like they haven't seen you in weeks when you come through the door lol

[@TanaMakes]

Thank you so much! And right hahaha. We've been home every day for so long that I guess an hour feels like an eternity. Shiko doesn't even really know what it's like to be alone since we got him last January 😅

Thank you! I have a few items available for my second shop on Etsy, but not more potty mouth yet. Once I get into super making mode and have extras of everything, I'll probably list those on Etsy as ready to ship items 😊

I love the new studio. It's so nice to have a everything have it's own spot and still have a good amount of space to move around. When you do your updates, how many of each item do you make at a time?

Thank you! I've been doing them Fridays at noon est for now. I've only had two so far and am still figuring out how much to make, but I've been making around 75 items plus stickers which are always available.

Great video, was wondering about your custom stamp, has it been cost efficient, buying ink stamps?

yes, it's much cheaper than using stickers or purchasing custom packaging.

Hi! I'm from Ecuador and I'm a new subscriber, I just can't stop watching your videos. I want to star a jewelry business and I want to be eco friendly, but in my country there aren't many options to do so. So I wanted to know how do you do your earrings/necklace card (I don't know if card is the proper name, sorry 🤭) cause I can't find non-plastic ones. Thank you in advance, love your videos! 🥰

[@TanaMakes]

Hi there! Glad you're enjoying the videos - I appreciate you subscribing. I make my own necklace cards by printing them on kraft paper and cutting them with my paper cutter 😊. I design 6 squares with tiny circles where the holes are supposed to go so I can poke them, and each squares has my logo and website.

[@vaciacoco689]

Hello and thank you for your beautiful video. I'm French and what I like in the US is that entrepreneurs through their video show others that if they succeed it's possible for others, except that in France, everything is secret, there is no encouragement, no motivation, the one who has a business that works will not show anything of what he does not even a micr to avoid competition, and so we have a lot of delay in entrepreneurship because people are afraid to launch. Thanks again for all the good thing.

[@TanaMakes]

Aw, there is plenty of room in the world for more entrepreneurs to sell their creations. No need to be super competitive and secretive about everything 💜. Glad you enjoyed 🥰

[@minie1013]

I love you videos , I watched them all lol.. quick question.. what brand and sizes are the round stickers label do you use( the ones that said phase)?.. thanks and keep it up and those videos coming.👍👍

[@TanaMakes]

Aw, thank you so much! I linked the video on how I make them in the cards. It's the "how to make eco-friendly stickers video" and you'll find the info you need there. They're about 2 inches 😊

[@danielpelaez6494]

Hello! Just a quick question where do you get the paper for your thank you cards from a fellow small business owner

[@TanaMakes]

Michael's 60lb kraft paper.

[@Abstrat]

If you place a piece of felt/foam/fabric under your package when you stamp on it, the stamp will be more clear and you’ll have to use less force.

[@TanaMakes]

Oh awesome, I will try that! I do need a new stamp though because this one has warped and others have had the same issue with this particular brand's stamp ☹

[@amenab.studio]

Hello I am wondering what kind of paper or cardstock you are using for your "Thank you" cards and earrings? 😊

[@Maria-gm8ux]

@@TanaMakes thank you! Love your stuff!

[@DerekFizzey]

Never understood how printing something and pasting it in a bag is a “business” lol. The “small business” of every single tik Tok girl.

[@TanaMakes]

Guess you should never buy one from anyone or anywhere and just hand letter a unique design and make it yourself with all the supplies needed 🤷‍♀️. I started my business before tiktok and before the pandemic when a bunch of people decided to start small businesses, and if you watch any other of my videos or have visited my website, you'll know this is not the focus of either of them. Also, these designs I use are unique designs that are hand lettered, vectorized, and created specifically for my business, not something "printed off" just to stick it on a bag. You should be a lot more respectful and considerate of all the supplies, time, research, designing and effort put into creating products.

[@kylasentes891]

Without getting into the issue this woman designs and manufactures everything she makes (evident from the videos), but do you actually not understand what businesses are? Like the actual mechanisms of production and distribution? Or even what capitalism is? 😂

[@TanaMakes]

@@kylasentes891 Apparently not 😅. He is in for a treat when he realizes how everything available at big box stores is made and how much it costs to manufacture lol

[@jaimievdb]

I design and sell tote bags myself. And i found this comment so offensive. You apparently do not know what a “small business owner” has to do to make such a product. If it is so easy go do it yourself. I would love to see what crap you make on your first try

[@meliciapilgrim5802]

Love it. Loving your packing supplies! Where did you get them?

[@TanaMakes]

I show and link all of my supplies in studio vlog 07 💕

[@serenityprincess6546]

Can we machine wash the tots ? Does the ink come off?

[@TanaMakes]

It's not ink, so it doesn't wash off, but it could start peeling or cracking over time. It's recommended to spot clean rather than wash entirely. I've washed them before by putting them inside out, washing with cold water, and then letting hang dry.

[@serenityprincess6546]

@@TanaMakes thank you ♥️

[@chinqupinchatter9485]

Yes. Why are all the words backwards

[@TanaMakes]

Because I recorded myself with the front facing camera.

There's plenty of footage of the words not backwards when I'm not recording myself "selfie" style. Is there something specific you're referring to?

@@TanaMakes thanks that is a great tip. Doesn’t it give sticky feel to it to the necklace?

@@iluvdramarock not at all. Washi tape is easy to peel, non-damaging, and won't rip the kraft paper it's attached to.

[@iluvdramarock]

@@TanaMakes again thank you so much for sharing your wisdom. Imma do that going forward. It was a pain using a small, talking small “ziplock” look alike bag to put the chain and I wasn’t feeling it. It looks sooo boring. Washi, on the other hand, look fun.

You can save the bag. Reheat the bag and use the weeding tool to pull the center out of the flower real quick...as long as its red hot it will come right off.
