[@tammydinh]

hi friends, thanks so much for being here :,) handmade art will always be part of my business, but i also think it's good to make things that are more accessible (price-wise) and show others that they can still pursue their small business with limited time & resources. handmade art is very time-consuming, shipping materials are costly, etc. so this is an alternative way to get started

[@paulinehaas9726]

Your like my favorite KZbinr in the world btw I sent you a message on instagram 😊😊😊!!

[@paulinehaas9726]

Hi Tammy ok ok your like the best artist when it comes to polymer clay I am so happy your shop sold out and Wana know something on my shop launch last week I only sold one item 😅

[@LIZZIED-cc9tr]

Everyone needs to know, that she’s already built her following so that’s why the success came so quickly. Please do not be discouraged if you don’t see the same success in the same amount of time. I love her channel and her work btw not a diss to her, just a notation.

[@elylioney6390]

I was thinking the same thing. Also, she already has some skill in illustrating.

[@LittleKikuyu]

Yeah there’s four years of work behind all of what we see ☺️ We can always be inspired by Tammy but shouldn’t ever compare ourselves to anyone but our past selves I think! 💪

[@justme.11]

Inspired. I know it would take a while to get sales since I'd be starting from scratch but this makes it feel super doable.

[@anastasiaschultz5719]

Exactly…

Think puffer bunny would make a cute mug, maybe with some winter or mountain vibes thrown in

[@SweetLittleTouch]

Omg yes!

[@katalinavillarrealcreates]

Ah yes! As a Coloradian I would totally get both the camper mug and especially a winter mug!

[@dearkive]

yess totally!

[@kayafrances1879]

Would you ever think about making long videos with less editing of days where you just sit down and sculpt? I love watching others create while I do so that style would be great for others like me!! Love your energy and style ❤

[@riahmariii]

I love these too! Esp when they have a voice over with just yapping insightful stuff (which they give us here!!)

[@karishmaem]

@@kayafrances1879 yesss I’m hoping for longer videos of just the sculpting, it’s so therapeutic to watch and have in the background while I work😍

At the age of 65 I started a micro business selling off loom bead woven jewellery. I’ve done mainly local fairs & am thinking about going online (there weren’t an computers when I grew up so this is all very new) I’m enjoying what I do & that’s all that’s important to me x

[@artsy253]

AURGHHGGI LOVE YOUR CHANNEL you’ve inspired me to start my own small art business, you are my idol

[@PentragonCosplay]

Print on demand really seems to be a good solution for everyone who has a full-time-job. Setting 5 hours aside on a weekend is manageable if you really wish it (hard to do on a normal weekday though, there are maybe 1 or 2 hours you can cut, simply because you are too exhausted to work too much after a normal shift).

[@iDontknowWhatwhoWhy]

I love the clay with me videos you used to make!! 💗💗💗 I was hoping you would make more of those, just cozy footage of you sculpting, But I LOOVE you're current videos too

[@tammydinh]

aahhhh i'll make more of those too soon! and OMG your profile picture!!!!

this is so amazing! never would’ve thought it’d be so simple! i would love to see another version of this video where you make another product & take your time, then compare & contrast the results!

[@MissTsoisauce]

this!

[@janicegaspar]

I tried drop shipping before via printify as well, but eventually stopped because you can't quality control your items and that really bothered me. When a customer had an issue with their order, I couldn't really help them either since everything was processed via printify. It's a great option for ecommerce, but I care too much about quality. I don't want to attach my name to a product I can't see and hold and inspect before shipping out to my wonderful customers. This is just my personal opinion.

[@elizabuga4337]

Thank you for pointing this out ❤

[@PentragonCosplay]

That´s very important to consider. I think if you have enough time to somit yourself than it’s better to do so. But depending on how big the own business becomes and how many orders you get each day it’s sometimes the only solution to outsource (or employ someone who do all the packaging for you)

[@shareyah8]

This is my same issue. I don't like not having control of the quality. Don't want my customers to get something poor quality and think I was okay with that being put out for them.

[@SamolinaSketches]

✨Camping aesthetics✨ without the camping is a mood though. Thank you for showing me what can be possible in a short amount of time! I've been putting off creating merch because I always think I need all this time outside my full time job. I also really love your art 😍

[@Pwuffy]

This is so smart!! Having to not pack is a such a luxury I wish I will have one day 😩💅

[@tammydinh]

i just wish you could customize packaging with printify 😭 i want them to come with cute little cards

[@sofistyx]

​@@tammydinh They offer package inserts too in the branding section! It costs a bit more but maybe that could be an option for you? I love your videos, the editing was so good on this one, especially by the designing part where you blended the 2 footages together yourself drawing and the design in making. I loved that! Great choice of music too.

[@Hsiwiajdhwhqjip]

thanks to you I have motivation to start making clay figurines again❤

Everytime i watch your video, i just get reminded of the shy Tammy with way less subscribers, sculpting away and now, here you are!❤ So glad to be here throughout your growth❤

[@peachydrawzz]

I really love your videos Tammy - you are truly the one who has inspired me to do clay art. I have been counting down the amount of subscribers you need until 400k, and now you have 🎉successfully🎉 reached it! Congratulations dear Tammy! I hope you and your business grows even more! ❤ love from CA 😊

[@ArtofAntonieta]

this reminds me when i was in "cowboy romance era" mood and i was designing ideas for stickers for any readers who love a cowboy romance. Your videos are very calming and in a way, like therapy, while I work on my own clay pieces. I hope to express my own story with my art 😁

[@RyansNerdEmporium]

Wait what is that Shopify order thingy?! That is so cool! That seems so fulfilling to watch the order numbers go up like that! ❤

[@ashiedear_]

You are always so inspiring! Seeing your videos always makes me feel that I can leave my retail job, get back into art and support myself while being creative! Thank you so much! ❤

[@katiebechtel9320]

It was really fun to see the print on demand process for a shop. I imagine its harder for a non established and new etsy shop which is one reason I've been so afraid to start one. The campingbara is so cute!

[@ivanas442]

Thank you this was helpful! I never understood how to make mockup but seeing how you did it made it easier to understand. I decided to start over on my business & this looks like a good idea to try printify (my old shop was redbubble).

[@RARITYLUVZ]

Literally watching your videos is sooo motivating!!

Such a cute idea your camperbaras! That video shows beautifully how we can set a goal and reach it.

[@user-mn7zz9hh3c]

Thank you so much for the inspiration, helping me push through those dark thoughts.

[@annipthatsme]

I love this! I have a small business as well and have been thinking of trying something like this but it seems so easy that now I HAVE to try!! I'm curious if typically you would wait to receive your sample before before you go live with the item and also I'd love to know where you created your own mockups for the items!

[@dearvirginia]

this so helpful, I was debating on using Printify for things like tshirts and bags, and seeing you use it was definitely a great selling point for them, it didn't seem painful at all!!

ahhhhhh I'm so happy for you girl!! this is amazing that you were able to do this start-to-finish in 5 hours!! congratulations uncomfy!

[@Spopaholic25]

Love this, amazing how you made your goal! Wondering if you can show a video in the future of how you glaze polymer clay with UV resin (including how you get the bottom glazed, how you hold the piece, how you wash the brushes)? Thanks so much!

[@marykebester5459]

It's so funny that you are drinking Rooibos tea!😄 It's the only tea I like💛 It's a big thing in South Africa- we get Rooibos in bottles as babies, it has so so many health benefits and if someone offers you tea here, here is basically just 2 choices- Rooibos or normal and I always choose Rooibos😊

[@sonjagoldman4394]

Those mugs are adorable! I just looked at your store and saw that all of your other items are sold out. Good job 🎉❤🎉

[@debbijay]

Hi Tammy, go girl! Love your designs and your videos. So love your mug... hey I was thinking, maybe you could also POD 3 tshirt designs... there are 3 scenes on your mug design... each would make an awesome matching Tshirt to match!!! Wishing you well. Kind soft hugs from Australia.

[@SoilaArt]

I had to check the video out when I saw the image, I love enamel mugs 😂 I have to resist buying unless they truly spark joy. They are great for travel/camping but I just like to use them at home as well. Especially my tiny angry birds mug ❤ Nice design and end result 😊

[@uniquemay08]

I love this. Productive & success in a day and the growth continues! ❤❤❤

It would be good to see what the quality of the mug turns out like once its sent to you.

PLEASE PLEASE make a yt video on how you glaze your charms with uv resin and what you do with the brushes after!

[@queenofweaves916]

Omg I’m doing this myself. I haven’t sold anything yet because I’m testing how things look. So far my print on my coffee cup is a little too small. I don’t know how to delete the products from my store. So now I’m redesigning. I use Canva to design but I saw a video where you can design within printify I haven’t tried it yet.

[@LucySharma-uo8tt]

I always wait for your videos 😊love you ♥️ keep growing 💖

[@shawnmariemann]

While I love that this can be done and you can use it as an option to support yourself as an artist, I really don't like that print-on-demand creates a ton of waste products and items that will have a very short shelf life - especially from non-artists who are just out for a quick buck. Your handmade items will be around so much longer and have so much more value.

[@LittleKikuyu]

Yeah, i love that non-handmade products are usually more accessible but nothing compares to handmade with love and care, imo 🥰

I just ordered the mug and it's due to arrive today!❤ I'm so excited and finally got me some Vomfy CO swag. 😂 I love camping and moved back to Houston for personal reasons from Colorado Springs, CO.🏔🌄 I still visit CO regularly. Camping can be fun. I recommend camping atleast for 1 day just to see how it goes. you can still work on your sketching, etc. I truely believe it can be even more inspiring when you are in nature. it's like your mind goes to a peaceful place and it feels healing. it really opens up your mind for ideas. (I gives me that effect 😊)

[@dyutisengupta8474]

hey, i am totally in love with your clay artstyle! it has inspired me to make my own clay models/charms. since i am still new to the clay community, i wanted to ask if the art style you use to make your clay items has a particilar name? (much like the miffy charms) or is it something you've created from scratch? i really like the style you use and i would like to use it to make some models inspired from yours.. probably even sell them if i am able to learn how to do it well. i wanted to ask if that's okay? if not, then i will try to come up with some art style of my own! thank you!❤

[@ranikhan2153]

Sis, you can try to make a mug all plane on the outside just having your logo “uncomfy” or any simple design you prefer and in the inside there will be one of your characters like coffeebara just sitting and chilling in the inside anyways, I am not a designer or anything but I just wanted to share this idea of mine to you…..BTW, I your content ❤it feels like a warm hug and your voice is soo soothing whenever I am feeling low or am sculpting I just play your video and it instantly makes me feel better.
