  • 🌸Take a look inside my box of items I’ve made and not sold ~ it’s a long one and I nearly didn’t upload it as it’s quite embarrassing🌸
    🌼June Daily (ish) Vlogs 🌼 Sewing, beach combing, EPP, embroidery, gardening, doll making and a lot of chat! 🌸 Hopefully they will get better as the month goes on! 🐝
    I've started a podcast to push myself out of my comfort zone and build my confidence! My channel is me, my sewing makes, crafting & my beach finds.
    Thank you for taking the time to watch my little channel!!
    If you would like to support me by buying me a coffee or buying a bag from my Etsy shop you can do so by following the links below.

    Hi Lilly. I don't normally do comments but I just felt I had to this time. Please please please sell your bags etc. No way are they fails. They are
    all beautiful. I agree with everyone. You are super super talented. Love your videos too. I'm quite local to you. I live in Norwich so you never know might bump into you in Hobbycraft one day😊

      Hi, thank you for watching and taking the time to comment. I am going to add the nicest ones to my Etsy shop after all the kind comments 😊 Oh yes say hi if you see me 😀 xx

    Oh Lilly, that was hilarious!!! Was in tears with laughter but thinking how much incredible hard work had gone into those beautiful bags etc. There is so much detail in them all, your fabric matching skills are brilliant. If that pile had fallen over I would have died laughing. Even your lovely brown wabbit had collapsed by the end of it!
    I had a similar experience knitting beautiful accessories for a Christmas sale at a very posh private school. My friend was selling tat - she sold out and I sold one thing so I know exact how you feel.
    I think you should have a table at your local car boot sale - I am sure they would sell, the fabrics (and frills!) are gorgeous. Well done you xx

      I did laugh to myself as I was editing, I'm glad I made you laugh too. I can totally relate to your Christmas sale experience. Thanks for watching 😊 xx

    Lovely Man Peg Bag!!!!! He's a hunk! I agree with everyone here, just get them back up for sale!!! Someone mention ko-fi, good idea 💡 You just made me laugh (again 😄) i loved this episode 😊

  • @marionmathews9852
    @marionmathews9852 Před 25 dny

    Your makes are wonderful and I’m so glad that you’ve shown them to us. You should definitely put them up for sale again. I think that they would sell well this time. I always love quirky, especially in fabric design and I think a lot of other people are the same.

    @shadowsatmidnight Před 25 dny +3

    Honestly, I think you're way to hard on yourself... you make beautiful things!! I must be weird as I love the pinny bags, also the lemon tote bag is adorable!! I used to sell on Etsy and the foot flow through shops is impossible unless you are promoting it hard. It's not your makes but the place you were selling. You are wonderful and very talented. Not everyone wants plain looking things, I LOVE lots of patterns and I know lots of people who would agree. You deserve positive self talk. I think the collars and the little pinny bag with the cartoon children are my favourites... ♡♡♡

    I love you found a Luna and a mouse,
    I would list the bags on your Etsy and if they don’t sell then repurpose the fabric again, but they are lovely,
    I really liked the first one the seaside one xx

    • @LillyandTheBee
      @LillyandTheBee  Před 25 dny +1

      I like the idea of repurposing some of the frilly pinny ones and might put a few of the others on Etsy, I’d completely forgotten about that Luna 😂 xx

    Aw that was lovely. You're so cool. Your bags are great. Really. Put them back in your shop and see. Lilly I saw someone who attached the little pouch bags to the outside of the bigger bags with a string and that meant they two bags were always together and the string was long enough they you could still put the big bag in the pouch and put it in your handbag etc. just an idea. But you are great

    I’ve bought made up things like tea cosies in charity shops and then undone all the sewing and remade them into project bags !

    • @LillyandTheBee
      @LillyandTheBee  Před 25 dny +1

      Good idea. I think I might do that with the frilly pinny bags 😊 xx

    Ooo I love the seaside. Bag and the holly hobbie, but I'm too old to have that Holly as a bag😢. Why don't you list em on etsy for a week as a sale🤷‍♀️ then what's left charity shop em! And hash tag goth for those goth ones.

    • @LillyandTheBee
      @LillyandTheBee  Před 25 dny +1

      Good advice, thank you. I might repurpose the fabric on some too xx

  • @karenk380
    @karenk380 Před 25 dny

    Alexander Henry does have some interesting fabric! You have fabric patterns for everyone. Etsy would be hard unless you have a following. There is so much competition. Perhaps promote your makes here and you will get some sales.😘

    • @LillyandTheBee
      @LillyandTheBee  Před 25 dny

      Thank you Karen, I was obsessed with all that fabric for a while as I’m sure you can tell. 😂Thank you for the advice and for watching 😊 xx

  • @PawfectPastimesAmo
    @PawfectPastimesAmo Před 25 dny +1

    Now you have a following I’m sure they’d sell. Have a look at having a Ko-Fi shop. It’s about £60 a year and that’s all they take. Your footfall can come from here, just notify when you’re doing a shop update. Etsy is now huge, expensive, big takers of your money and full of c#*p from China.

    • @LillyandTheBee
      @LillyandTheBee  Před 25 dny +1

      Hi, I do have a kofi shop but I’ve never added anything to it, I will look into it, Etsy’s charges are so high it’s a shame, thanks for the advice 😊 xx

  • @karenfroud3612
    @karenfroud3612 Před 25 dny

    Are there no
    Local shops that would sell these for you for a small cut? Xx

  • @angelaholcroft4515
    @angelaholcroft4515 Před 25 dny

    Why don't you try putting some into your shop again. You could put them in at a special price. They're all too pretty to be left languishing in a box. Some of the small zipper bags would make perfect notion pouches or sock project bags. X

    • @LillyandTheBee
      @LillyandTheBee  Před 25 dny

      Thank you Angela, yes I think I will put some of them on there and then repurpose the fabric on some of the others xx

    • @LillyandTheBee
      @LillyandTheBee  Před 25 dny

      Yes of course! When I get a chance tomorrow or Friday I will get the box out again. Check them and add to Etsy as a reserved item ( plus the other two) for Joan. I will keep the price low Is that ok? Xx
