Where'd you buy those black mailers. Those would be quite useful to ship stuff.

And I'm loving these vlogs. Glad I found your channel

Hey Tiffany! Sorry, I was wondering if you could let us know what manufacturer did you work with to make the totes and plushies. I’m starting a small biz and would love to know this!
Thanks so much for sharing your world with us 💞

Hello Tiffany , as a fellow crafter in New York I understand . During my day job I am a Nurse and there are some people who just feel privileged. In feeling privileged people feel that have the right to just hurt other people feelings and just be ungrateful. Therefore, some days I feel unappreciated twice fold. Ungrateful for the care I provide during the day and the happiness I try to give when making and selling items. Privileged people think that their thoughts matter. However, in reality their thoughts are on the same level as anyone else's and they don't realize it. Remember they are just one person on the planet of 8 billion. That one bad sour patch kid compared to the other 8 billion flowers you will receive is nothing. Keep smiling and putting out great content .

I like how you used the plastic bags - they are best for lessening shipping costs/returns, recyclable and easier to store. Smart choice.

Start wearing pressure gloves when working. Between your art, typing and inspecting your items; it's going to take a toll on your hands.

Oh my gosh I also have had multiple people scoff at my $4 postcards that I sell with my photography, and I’m like seriously I could be charging way more, so many photographers charge so much for their photos. I sell them in the bookstore I work in so maybe it wound be better if I was at an art event but yeah 😂 I think $5 is a great price for your stickers and I love your art 😊

I think all that massaging is excessive. Maybe put a small instruction card in with each one so people can do that part themselves? Save your hands and your time.

You should not feel uncomfortable with saying "if you feel they're too expensive you most certainly can buy somewhere else. " Sometimes people try to make YOU uncomfortable so you'll give them money off. Rude behavior should not be rewarded or tolerated. ❤ Sorry you had to experience that.

I feel like anyone who buys coffee is wasting money anyways because they will pee it out in about an hour. What good was that? 😂 But seriously what a rude person. If she wanted it cheaper she can do the work herself. Otherwise move along. I hope you feel refreshed soon enough, you deserve it!

Thankyou for sharing this with us, apple cheeks. I know what it's like when people say that things are too expensive and it is annoying! But they don't think of the time that goes into handmade goodies. They don't know the struggle or how much it cost for us to order things in and that we need to make money too. It's okay, the right people will come along. Sending blessings! :)

I understand why you felt a little shook after that woman made the rude comment, that the stickers were too expensive.
I guess I'm an introvert also, and I seem to loose my voice to reply at the time, if someone says something like that.

Most people have NO CLUE whatsoever, on how much it costs to have one's art made into products that are quality!

Maybe tell the rude person who complains about price, that your items are CUSTOM MADE for you, NOT MASS-PRODUCED!

And that you need to order more than the minimum order from the manufacturer, to get a decent enough price to sell your product at retail.

You also have to take into account the cost of getting the bulk shipments from the manufacturer to you.

People are just thinking of how much a cheapo product would cost to make wholesale, but not of a quality product that you would only order 300-500 of. 😡

One product I thought of, did some research on finding a manufacturer, etc., required a minimum order of 1,000 pcs.

I know I could sell at least 600+ right away, maybe even all 1,000, but the cost per unit was still a bit higher for 1,000 pieces than I expected, and I couldn't just order them first and sell later. It was way too costly for me.

I would have to hold a pre-order sale and/or crowdfund it to fund the wholesale purchase.

Even then, I would have to sell it for more than I had expected (and prob more than people would want to pay) because the minimum order cost per piece is kind of high.


If you sell online, there are so many fees involved (not to mention fees and/or % that are higher when selling to buyers out of the US), that will quickly eat up your profit unless you charge enough to cover those fees!

Like many artists, designers and illustrators, I started with (and still use), traditional drawing and painting methods and tools.

I am highly skilled in the ones I use, but I also need to use digital methods to create and edit art now, because running a small art business means I have to put in plenty of time doing non-art things too! ☹️

Things such as researching methods and manufacturers and comparing them, if I want to launch new products, spending time being my own "quality control department" and packing orders and being the shipping dept, etc.

Sometimes it seems there is so much less time to do art!

NOOOOO I purchased from Moft for my iPad stand cases, bag and accessaries last year, it took them 16 weeks to mark my order as "shipped" and it never arrived!! The customer service line is never available. My $128 is gone for nothing... Please be careful when you purchase from Moft...
