I use to own a historically accurate costume shop and sold all over the world, once the economy dived here in the states, costumes were no longer a necessity. While I was designing and sewing, I ran into so many little issues daily and needed breathers in between, totally understand what you mean. It’s all on you since you are the boss and the factory. Keep going and treat yourself, we artists are integral to our communities.

[@bobjodee]

You and Frannerd are the reasons why I'm SO happy the KZbin community is full of artists.

[@watercolourartincapetown2919]

The letter from Mia made me tear up, you’re the sweetest!!

[@christinadaum3420]

You are NOT boring to those of us who only get brief snap shot of what you are up to :). You are fun to watch, thank you for sharing.

[@neyruzAJ]

Thank you dear of sharing the little friend drawing she send to you! It makes me sooo soooo happy when I receive something made with little hands, it remind me of my self and how my mom use to be proud of her little daughter when I actually was drawing 2 small lines :) with time the pleasure I have of seeing my mom proud hang my heart more and more in art.... Thank you for the mothers who show love in this ways. xx Neyruz is watching happy your Studio Vlog xx

[@Pollygone]

Your videos are just so soft and lovely! Your voice is so calming 😊💕

[@KatnippStudios]

Pollygone Illustration Heheheh omgosh thank you so so much! 😍💖😍💖😍❤️

[@ginnytalbot9125]

Yay!! I love the little pumpkin doggie yay so so adorable! You are a ray of light thank you for sharing:) we are lucky to get a peak into your day🌺

[@sananasx2]

Don't worry your videos aren't boring! Your videos are super calm and fun to watch!💗💖

[@belvawong6048]

Your vlogs are not boring at all. Watching your vlogs always make me feel calm and happy. Actually quite soothing in this busy world.

[@primadonnastudio]

Love watching you! You are truly an encouragement to me to stay on track as a new Etsy shop owner. Thanks again for your encouraging words. It means a lot to me.

[@HobbyRat]

I swear we all watch the same KZbinrs. I don't know if it's cause the KZbin creative community is so small, but it's kinda cool knowing everyone watches each other! Thank you for actually putting in the clip of your checklist of things you want to get done. I always like knowing what actually sells and what's considered 'in' through other peoples shop so that if I ever decide to sell something, at least I know that Seasonal things are a HUGE hit! :P Also, I personally totally love you just rambling about anything and everything! I moved away from home a while back so outside of work I don't really have a social life; A good part of my days are spent watching others live their life. I definitely find it interesting just to see what my favorite KZbinrs are up to or thinking about even if nothing super interesting is happening. It's like doing nothing together! :)

[@kroseillustration4536]

I want you to know that when you followed me on insta and stuff, and actually had a conversation with me, it meant the world to me as well! so I totally understand the feeling!! c:

[@StarrIllenitram]

I love love love your studio vlogs! Keep making them!!!! 💗💗💗

[@KatnippStudios]

StarrIllenitram Hehehehe this is so encouraging thank you!!! Xxxx 😍💖

[@Dani__Happy]

It really is so nice when your work is suddenly somethig else than just a drawing on a paper. I recently made my first stickers and I was so happy to see my drawigs "come alive" after all the work and love I put into them :3

[@nalipo_illustration]

Your studio vlogs aren't boring at all! I love them so,so much!! ♥️

[@ShonaMary]

OMFG ART ATTACK WAS THE BEGINNING OF IT ALL!!!!

[@marellibelli]

I watch your studio vlogs when I get home from my job that I hate and they totally turn my day around and put me in the space to chill out and draw. I love love love everything you do and the gingerbread man is my favourite! 😊

[@aquilegia4ev3r]

I don’t find the vlogs boring at all! In fact I find them inspirational. Glad your back 😁

[@mellyju]

Of course we want to watch you, and you’re never boring! Love your videos. Very inspiring.

[@hillareyluther9426]

I really love your studio vlogs, they are inspiring, encouraging, and fun. They are also very informative on the behind the scene stuff that goes into owning a small business and how much work there is!!! It doesn't happen magically!

[@wendymalik6784]

I only enjoy vlogs for people I feel are being themselves. You seem so genuine and happy. Love your illustration style.

[@jecamartinez]

Catnip your vlogs are NEVER BORING!! I just watched this while working on my client animation project, and it felt like having a friend with me! I wish I can also open my own online store of cute prints, pins, stationery, and stuff like you, but maybe someday (i cant do much right now because I'm waiting til I move!) Btw you've inspired me to make my first Studio Vlog! You're probably not gonna see this amongst all your comments haha but I just wanted to thank you for being a joy and an inspiration!

[@Tishanastodo]

First of all missy your videos are NOT boring. I really look forward to your videos! The music, your energy and personality, your spirit is all just so sweet and wonderful. You really make my day better 😊 I also love your editing and your music really ties things together. Please don't change! I used to run an etsy shop (well 3 actually) and for the past nearly 2 years I have switched to working a day job. It's not a bit creative and I missed doing something I loved. Running my store certainly didn't feel like work. I'm not sure how I found your videos but I've been watching for the past couple of months and you have certainly been an inspiration to me. The amount of orders you received while away was always a big fear of mine as a shop owner!! I would love getting orders but was just afraid of receiving too many and getting overwhelmed! I also love your honesty. Looking forward to seeing your next one pal 💕Oh and the pins...HOW CAN I DECIDE?! THEY ARE ALL SOOOOOO CUTE!! 😊

[@rinimiki]

Marshy came out so cute! I dont think I ever see your videos as boring. I've discovered you perhaps a month or two ago now and I've been binging through almost all your videos. So I was super happy to come home from work today to see a new studio vlog!! 💕

[@dorkabrain]

I missed your vlogs so much! They're never boring; just calming, inspiring, and delightful : )I watched this one whilst I peeled the protective backing off of my first ever batch of pins!

[@anateixeira9006]

What you say it's true, I really love to see the friendship and kindness between the community. It really warms my heart seeing other people support and help each other! Really like your videos! Always so helpful and happy :) Edit: Gingerbread pin

[@michelleliu3629]

I have never clicked on a video faster in my entire life. I LOVE YOUR STUDIO VLOGS 😍😍😍😍😍

[@nykir1417]

Thank you for being such a ray of sunshine in all of your videos. You always brighten my day and make me smile. :)

[@AmentetAuris]

When it's rainy and gray outside, I just put up one of your vlogs and everything is pink again. So so addicted to your positive energy ^_^ Thank you for showing all the work you do and what it takes to have an etsy shop and do business with illustrations. It just gives the right motivation mixture of: it is tough but you can do it - mentality. Thank you.

[@AlexandraVictoriavegan]

I love these vlogs! It's nice to see this type of perspective of running a business . It helps me a lot in terms of what to expect! Keep them coming please!🥰

[@rachelleleann]

Everything video you do is amazing and made with so much care. Is this what love feels like?

[@meekomar5312]

I love seeing these kinds of videos/vlogs where you're just doing your thing. It's the thing I want to do instead of full time retail, so I like just seeing how artists that are already doing that Hustle go about their day to day stuff. It may seem boring to some, but it's where I want to get to in my life so I really like being able to glimpse it. Thank you for sharing it!

[@KatnippStudios]

I used to work in retail too! Im actually so grateful for it, it taught me so much! hehehe Thank you so so much my lovely! It means the world YOU DA BEST

[@nicholewade8233]

I love watching what you do--even if you think its boring! Its nice to have company when I'm doing my own illustrations. It's like grab a cuppa and do our art thing! Glad you had fun in Florida and you were well enough to go! I think my favorite pin so far is between the Gingy and the Lemon! I like them all but those two are my favorites.

[@JudiHodgkin]

Kat, I like watching your studio blogs because it gives me a real insight to how you run your day-to-day business. I hope to be able to set myself up in a similar fashion next year and you’ve given me really good ideas as to how I can get myself going each day. Keep going!

[@amyhighland3182]

Seeing your work and all of the lovely things you produce is such a pick me up when I'm feeling lost creatively! I just wanna make so much stuff now!!

[@sometimescrafter]

I love it - not boring at all! I'm gonna need to add that cute little marshmallow to my collection for sure. So adorable!

[@00genius]

Your studio vlogs are my fav ! Love how they bring art, fun and running a business together ❤️

[@overly.chromatic]

omg those little ghosties in that sticker pack on the shelf are SO CUTE

[@breew5830]

Hey Catherine! I was having such a bad day but was so excited to see this video go up! I have been watching your studio vlogs for a while now and they are my fav fav videos! These videos aren’t boring and you do such an amazing job working, filming and editing! I hope you keep posting videos like this because they honestly make me feel so happy and inspired! Keep doing you and being incredible! Xx

[@karolpotters]

[@myartpixie]

Oh my gosh I LOVE the marshmallow Pin!!!! So cute! I also like the rose gold that’s a nice touch!

[@michelelondoh7540]

[@MooreStationery]

You da best! No, for real. You are. I love your personality, vlogs, art....just everything. I live in Florida...hope you had the best time. Welcome back!

[@LisandraKeller]

We love your vlogs so keep them coming! I look forward to watching them and stop everything to watch when I get a notification it is up. You rock!

[@rhoz5191]

Never boring to watch you, Kat. Have you shared what kind of place makes your pins? So interesting. I’m always wanting details. Drives my friends crazy. Ha You had so much to learn to get into all you do. Amazing. Even the equipment for taking well lighted photos. Man. I wouldn’t know where to start !

[@heyalvie]

I have watched all of your videos and I loved it all so much. I’m illustrator as well and I just can’t help but love everything you do. You’re just so kind and down to earth. Keep filming your videos, keep doing the amazing work and just be yourself! Thank you so much for bringing happiness and kindess to this messy little world. AND I CAN’T WAIT FOR THE NEXT VLOG! OK, BYE! haha 💙

[@charleneschmidt8840]

I love watching your channel so much. I have major amounts of anxiety, and listening/watching your sweet videos brighten my day. Thank you so much for putting the time and effort into these. I watch them start to finish. ♡

[@Homebodyscafe]

Katnipp I started watching you a month back, I found myself not being able to stop watching your videos and then just fell in love and subbed. The growth here that you're gaining is so well deserved. Hope more people discover your beautiful channel 💜💕

[@JenniferCharleeArt]

I'm so kicking myself for not watching your studio vlogs earlier (but now I've been able to binge watch them which has been a complete delight). I love everything about the way you tell your story through your vlogs. It feels like I have an art buddy right here in my studio with me

[@Randommusingsandstuff]

Not boring! Love the studio vlogs.

[@cupcakesandcocoa2290]

You’re literally glowing ! Disneyland was definitely a tonic! Beautiful. Are you going to make a Christmas 🎄 pin and stickers? Love your vlogs. Especially packing orders etc. So relaxing and calming and addictive!!

[@clairerandall5742]

Another fab video and not boring at all I loved it. Love the marshmallow pin he is so cute xxx

[@cruzoredraws4789]

Marshmallow was deffo my favourite, bloody adorable! Addicted to your studio vlogs 💜

[@SophieHarrison69]

I just placed an order from Kristen last week and agree her style is STUNNING, right up my street with the autumnal, nature feel! I always incorporate nature in my packaging for crochet orders, so it's right up my street. Mia's drawing is simply beautiful and what you said about Art Attack is so true - i used to watch it too! It made me think how "craft tube" can be the 21st century answer and it's a lovely idea :) YOU are a huge part of that, i've fallen in love with your channel and have been going over all your old videos! YOU ARE TRULY MAGICAL xxxx

[@rosm6621]

Love them all. Want them ALL! 😊

[@iiNB4Rii]

The marshmallow pins were so cute I love them so much! You're so talented! Love you!

[@comicbookbeauty]

I can't wait to get the Gingerbread pin! I wish there was a bundle with the matching stickers and mug! 💜

[@mgcassy]

My little one is here now. Hello from Alexander. We are just watching your studio vlog and are really getting inspired to get things done. Might still take a while until he has a rhythm, but hey we are reaaaaaaaaaady!!!! I love that pumpkin dog so much.

[@louisdegalian477]

Your studio vlogs give me so much motivation to keep working hard on my Etsy shop. I love them!

[@elaeria]

Those buttons are so adorable! I can't decide which ones I like best. Perhaps the marshmallow or the gingerbread. I can't decide!! You make such gorgeous art. :D

[@DaintyHimeworld]

Love watching your vlogs! Me and my grandma sit watch them each Friday 💕🌸

[@allysonmoreno9404]

You inspire me to draw and also inspire me to draw more 😊

[@Shirleyjl1]

Glad you are back. Missed your vlogs. Love watching your process. (Stop apologizing...no need). Your work is adorable 💜

[@marym2287]

Kristen Askland has a really cute youtube channel too. Love the studio vlogs, it's great to see an Etsy store behind the scenes.

[@Apolonia89]

Omg, I need all three pins! How adorable 😍

[@chapter48creative]

Welcome back!! I hope you had a fantastic time. Just as motivating as ever!

[@AliePotter]

Hurrah! New vlog! 💚 I play your vlogs over and over (even after watching all of them) to keep me company as I work. Running a shop at home and on your own can be quite isolating, but your bubbly personality keeps me from feeling lonely! 💚

[@rachelm9886]

I didnt want to start collecting enamel pins because my wallet would hate me but I need one of those gingerbread men. they're adorable. Hope your trip was amazing. Disney is always such a magical time!

[@Galaxxi]

I'm opening a shop soon and I wanted to use cut up cardboard boxes for shipping my art prints, but I didn't want people to think I was cheap xD A LOT of boxes come through my household and re-using them would be so much nicer than letting them pile up in the garage and spending time breaking them all down just to be thrown out. It's nice to see that another artist has done it too, makes me wonder if I should reconsider my stance.

[@mrs.c8207]

I think your every day blogs in the studio are very interesting. You are a very sweet person. Hugs from Alaska.

[@deannacecilia4817]

I have fallen in love with your videos

[@tanyaceccato9100]

Never boring! Keep up the good work😊

[@mariedunkle9492]

I love all the enamel pins!

[@sincerelynabilah]

[@julieflynn4540]

I have been binge watching all of your studio vlogs today! You are absolutely adorable. Keep making them! I have never watched anything like this before and really enjoy you! I make digital stickers and I am about to start making print cut stickers. I love seeing your processes and how you do it start to finish!

[@Maple0chiki]

These studio vlogs are always a huge inspiration! I've been thinking about creating my own Etsy shop for a while now, and watching your vlogs makes me super excited to make that a reality someday :) And well done for getting through most of your orders, that's so impressive!!

[@iFrootloops]

I loooove looooooove LOVE your art and watching your videos!! I am so excited for the gingerbread pin to be available in your shop! :)

[@FromAna]

Marshmallow is def my favorite but that might just be because your so excitement and it’s contagious! 💕 and the kitties treat bag made it into the video 🤣👏🏽yay!

[@annavannoni]

1. Marshmallow 2. Gingerbread man 3. Pumpkin dog pin (in that order) & I 💖'd the trick or treat bucket, matches your cat mug!

[@KatnippStudios]

anna vannoni hehehe yayyyy! 😍💖 IKR I have sad news!!! My cat mug smashed!! 😭😭😭😭😭😱

[@annavannoni]

@@KatnippStudios aww, how sad! That was really cute, I hope you can get another one! I hope that you enjoyed Florida! Btw, 💖 your vlogs! Check out my channel too!

[@woodfield_studio]

Your studiovlogs are so nice and relaxing to watch! :) It was the perfect beginning of my day today! Hope you have a good day too, greetings from Holland! X

[@jyanp747]

I actually bought an ipad + apple pencil because of you ♥️ it’s always good to try something new like digital art. Keep up the good work 👌

[@Yammydesu]

thank you so much for these videos 💕, I've just found you today and have been binging all day. Ive been wanting to open an online store of my own for so many years and I think you've really helped make the final 'yes I'm gonna do it!' decision for me! I'll be looking forward to so many new videos from you! xx

[@joannak8867]

The ginger bread is my favorite!❤️

[@Phianett]

Such cuteness!!! All of it!!! 💟

[@MRorizs2]

Omg that marshmallow pin is just so adorbs. I love how the niquel plating complements the cold colors your used in it and just gives it a soft feeling. You're actually inspiring me to try making pins as well lol I honestly think that your studio vlogs make the whole boring part of working on the same things everyday way more interesting. You just seem to put a nice light on all these things and make them feel actually interesting, haha

[@gd4344]

When two of you’re favorite you tubers and illustrators support each other. 😍

[@Sandra-lk5yt]

You're never boring! It's lovely to watch you work and make sUPPer cute products! It's also wonderful to hear about the realities of making doing what you love a career! Hope I get there one day and seeing your videos every week makes me feel inspired and excited that I can make it happen! Thanks for being a total cutie!

[@emmamations]

You saying you run into an issue every day made me just do a sigh of relief!! I'm going to go watch her video too. Because seriously, daily issues here too. I feel like such a failure sometimes because of it, and I'm so stressed wondering why things go wrong, but I think it's just the nature of running a business yourself/with only one other person!

[@LittleSqueesh]

I love how honest you are and how much you share, I've been doing art commissions and selling the odd print here and there but looking to open an online store in the new year, I'm just designing and creating my stock in advance and I already feel the set backs of the odd problem here and there (usually to do with printing, ordering materials, new machinery etc etc). Your vlogs really inspire me to keep pushing forward, hopefully one day I'll have a business as lovely as yours

[@bethpaulxo]

I love your studio vlogs, my absolute fave videos to watch of yours!

[@ceeaich]

Those marshmallow pins are super cute :D

[@jonasgrancha]

Thank you for the creative boost you are the best :D

[@mangoboo2011]

How on earth can you be this talented??!!?? I am literally addicted to you and your videos 😊 I wish I could do what you do 😏 lots of love from Oxfordshire

[@KatnippStudios]

Oh my goodness, thank you so so much heheheeh this seriously means the world YOU DA BEST
