hi friends:) hope you're liking the vlogs

[@amyprofitspecialist]

Wow, your weekend sounds incredibly busy and productive! From crafting to preparing for the popup, it seems like you're juggling a lot. I'm so impressed with your laser engraver - that's a game-changer!

[@FaithfulJournalingCo]

I love your videos! I got so excited when you were talking about “small” small business because that absolutely describes me and my shop. It is just me (a student) hand making each item and sending out orders. I haven’t made a ton of sales, but I am so grateful for those who have supported me, and your videos definitely inspire me to keep going. Thanks for sharing! 🤗💛

[@reallyvivian]

I love you crafting content! Can you make more content geared towards your clothes, pouches and how you edit and film content for your business for TikTok and ig? ❤

[@monicarazak]

I'll definitely incorporate more of those topics in upcoming videos:)

[@ljmcrae5150]

You are such an inspiration. Thank you for the videos and I’m excited that you’re getting into the Xtool laser making I can’t wait to see your videos.!!! I hope you have a great pop-up event!

[@kims5404]

Flat (non-boxed) bags/puches are so quick to make compared to the box bags, if you still want to make zippered bags. Bags with only corners are also quicker to make and stand up, so they’re a bit more functional

[@rileync]

yay so excited to watch this while I get ready to do my first ever pop-up shop! ❤

[@KaitlinRochelleCreative]

I love the idea of promoting small businesses (and would love to be included) especially when you have such a dedicated following :) I've started an art club over on Patreon, Kaitlin Rochelle, focused on endangered animals. A portion of all proceeds goes to organizations focused on research and conservation. Each month you'll receive a sticker of an original illustration focused on one species. It would make a great gift idea for your outdoor enthusiast that already has it all, or someone you want to spoil all year. Thanks for checking it out!

[@Shery.Cherry]

Wow really nice :) I wish u luck

[@patriciaharris9546]

Sending best wishes from Trinidad and Tobago.

[@aneesaaliramroop5989]

Also from Trinidad

[@TinasEZrecipes]

loved this vlog so much! im the same way with the pouches. I just had to redo 3 of them, and girl i was so over it!

[@patriciaharris9546]

Happy Friday to you.Have a great weekend. All the best in your market.

[@49lucky]

I'm the same if I see it I want it. So I go home and make it😅😅😅. I've been that way forever.

[@HartfordCraft]

Laughing because I literally just ordered one. I guess we will learn it at the same time!

[@trishasmith2303]

Haha yes with that one invisible hair 😂 I completely relate with some products being an absolute nightmare to make. I crochet and there are somethings I just won’t do anymore because it annoys the MESS out of me. Can you do a rundown of your sewing machines? My mom sews and I want to get her a serger and I know she knows how to use it haha but I’m invested in her hobbies bcuz she’s mom so I’d like to understand how they work too. 😂😂

[@monicarazak]

I'll definitely make a video about all my sewing supplies!

[@rebeccarobinson678]

Where do you get your candles? Do you buy the candle premade or do you have a companies that makes it per your recipe? Or do you make them yourself? I’m wanting to get into candle making, air fresheners, stuff with essential oils, but I’m scared to make the candles myself.

Hi ❤

[@moreadventure3627]

Do you think you would be able to do your small business job as a full time. Or is it not enough to survive?

[@courtneyc314]

What do you find to be the best transfer paper for selling decals? Trial and erroring but I'd love to know what you like!

[@monicarazak]

I use this one and I love it! amzn.to/3R3Fqj3

[@courtneyc314]

@@monicarazak thank you! (:
