After just starting a few months ago and just getting flooded with request from people i know, this video helped tremendously. Thanks
Glad I could help! Thank you
Thanks for your generosity in sharing how you turned a passion hobby into a business. I appreciate the care and quality of your art work. I’m retired - a lifelong knitter and love fibre and started tufting a while ago. I love it so much and have been toying with the idea of having a bit of extra income. I’m way older than you but us older people have lots to learn from young people such as yourself! Thanks and looking forward to watching more of your videos.
I am binge watching your videos… maaan, the time you take to communicate and share with us is amazing. Thank you, I’m not a tufter… but dammit you make it seem to be very tempting … you make it to be so intriguing… again thank you so much!
Awesome and super informative. Just wanted to say thank your. I looking to start next month with no experience what's so ever. Your video definitely cleared a lot of doubt.
Man, loved it! Very well explained!
Yeah!!!!! DW Hoodie is back 😂 love this vids are great too thanks for the content
Thank you for the support!
Ainda não consegui começar no hobby mas estou muito empolgado e a cada vídeo seu fico com mais vontade de iniciar. Vejo vídeos de vários artistas da área e os que eu mais me agradam são os seus, tanto pelo resultado que é excepcional quanto pelo processo em si que é extremamente cuidadoso e preciso(que é como eu desejo ser). Parabéns pelo vídeo espero em breve poder colocar em prática todas essas dicas! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🇧🇷
The videos are dope. Such an interesting hobby man
Thank you! 🙏🏻
Ty for this content! As a new tufter this was invaluable! P.S. I like the hair better than the hoodie 😂
Hey dude! I am also originally from Wyoming and have relocated recently as well!
I just got into tufting and most of my customers right now are my friends from back home.
It has been helpful watching this video, since it came up on my feed. I guess you could consider me an organic follower. I'll definitely subscribe, and I'm looking forward to more videos in the future!
I hope all is going well with your move!
Very helpful your comments --- Thank you
Also something that people should be aware of in all businesses is it’s very important to pay your taxes for all sales through venmo and all similar apps after 2022
No
Thanks needed this
omg! it's kenny! i agree dude. i have a basic website and do sales separately. i've sold more art in person than i ever have online. art is a long game tho. i'm just doing rugs in addition to the art i already make. i appreciate your videos.
Thank you for the support! I love the thought of a gallery on the site
Hi Dominic
I love your work and helpful video.
How can I purchase a tufting machine and how much? I'm from Zambia
Just out of curiosity, do you have any worries about copyright? I'm thinking about starting but I'm afraid about copyright material such as logos, etc... any tips/comments about it? Thank you! Excellent video.
Hi, did you ever find the right answer or this question?
can you see togther left over tufting scraps to fit your frame. i’ve got large pieces left
If you dont mind me asking. How many orders do you get a week/month?
This was pretty helpful and chill video
Happy to hear!
Do you do rugs full time now as a career?
Do you need any license or some rules to follow in tufting?
What about copyright? How does that apply?
thank you man，help a lot！
Happy to help!
What so you charge or i should say how do you decide what you charge?
Around how much roughly do you make a month tufting?
It varies depending on how many commissions I get. I’m a student currently so it’s just some nice side money.
Whats the pricing average
can i ask you (or you guys) where can i order that thing what you are using as a backing?
I use a felt backing from my local craft store
What wool is best for making rugs ?
I haven’t had experience with a lot of wool yarn, but when I have used it I’ve gotten it locally made in San Diego. I typically use acrylic yarn from the big name craft stores
How did you learn to price your rugs? Especially in the beginning
Check out my previous video about how I priced my rugs!
Do your customers pay full amount when they hire you?
I used to accept payment after, but because of some issues I now either do the payment in full upfront, or a deposit
What kind of yarn do you use?
I use acrylic yarn
Nnnnooooo hoodie...unprofessional and walmart employees arent wearing hoodies....stewie would not approve....oh...you took it off..maybe next time Ill sub...maybe😮

I'm just as confused haha, the hoodie STAYS ON
