I'm just starting with my silhouette cameo and by far you're the only person here on CZcams that has actually gone into detail, well at least from the past videos I've watched. You've brought so much clarity to me and I'm excited to see your latest content. Thank You.
Please do one on establishing your business how to get your license
Love your videos with such great information! Thank you!
THANK YOU! I learned a lot from this video. Im about to start a small business. thank u!
Please do the series 💕 I have wanted to start my own business and can use your very insightful tips.
Just posted an etsy video on shipping, much more coming! 😊
How do you not have a million subs?! Your videos are so informative and you’re great at what you do. So glad I found your channel.
That is so sweet of you to say! Thank you so much 💕
thank you for sharing a lot of people won't share, I've been needing more information on this topic and you have been extremely helpful and informative! You just got a new subscriber! please keep these business related vids coming they are life changing for us who are serious about this!!! xoxo
Thank you so much! I love that I'm able to help! 🥰
I have to agree with you on the thermal printer for labels. I got lucky and got one as a gift and am so glad I don’t have to use my regular printer.
Just found this video and it is so informative!! Thank you!!
You are so sweet and genuine! Easy to follow and easy on the ears. Bless you and thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much!
I do SO many of the same things! 651, us cutter, clear transfer tape etc etc!
I am so glad I found your channel! I worked for a custom clothing company doing graphic design, cutting and pressing. We only ever did clothing but I knew there was much more we could do! They ended up closing down and I am now starting my own vinyl cutting business! I have been doing a ton of research! Yet I still have so many questions!
Yes yes yes videos on Etsy !!! I’m so lost with how to ship and that’s what’s stopping me from using it honestly. I sold a few things before but I ended up losing money due to shipping. I use Mercari to sell my decals or other crafts and their shipping it SIMPLE!! So I would love to see how you make a listing and determine shipping! Thanks! Keep up the great work !
No problem, I will definitely do this soon! Thank you! 💕
@@SimplySallie Awesome video and you're so Cute.
Ta
I love your videos! Just subscribed. There are so many small business owners who don't reply to comments or don't share their "secrets", appreciate you very much. I've been practicing and putting decals all over my home.
Thank you so much! This means a lot to me to be able to help people out. There's plenty of room for success for everyone! 💕
Very helpful, thank you. I love my thermal printer too. I use the labels for lots of things and it's so much cheaper than using my regular ink printer x
Love the video, simple standard info that’s needed. Can you please do a video on how you drive business to your store or the best ways to start a store online?
Thank you, I definitely will!
Awesome video! I am thinking of adding vinyl decals to my shop. I make wreaths and wood signs. This was so helpful and I love how 'real' and down to earth you came across. The shipping video was super helpful!
Thank you so much! Good luck in your business ventures!
@@SimplySallie thank you for wonderful tutorial. I have some questions--totally new at this. - Can dishwasher safe Modge podge go in microwave and oven once cured for 30 days
- How to seal vinyl on plates and cups - food and microwave safe? Especially if I want to do the bottom of plates where food touches.
- Can vinyl go in microwave and oven?
- can epoxy rimmed cups go in microwave if they are ceramic?
- can epoxy covered teapot go on stove if it’s ceramic?
I ordered the transfer tape because of you and I am In LOVE with it.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge. We always used xacto knives for weeding/ trimmimg vinyl/ trimming masking when I used to work in a sign shop. They have such a fine point and are easily replaced if the tip becomes dull. Merry Christmas to you!

Very helpful video, thank you 🙏, please may I ask a question:- is it possible to fold a thin vinyl sticker, around the corner of a squircle.?
Thank you
Thank you so much for creating this video and sharing everything you learned from doing this business. I have been wanting to start my own for months now and still don't have the guts. But after seeing your video, I have a clearer picture now and I have subscribed to your channel as you'll probably be my e-coach/guide/mentor. Thanks, Sallie!
You're awesome, thank you Sallie!
Yes, please do that. That would be so helpful. Thank you
This video is helpful /I really envy people who live in US > it’s like a craft heaven 😅
same🤣
Thank you for this video. I would appreciate a video on the legal aspect of starting a business.
Hi Sallie,
Very useful information. I own a boat detailing company and would like to learn how to make decals and lettering. Any videos on this? I mean start from scratch.
Thanking you in advance.
Martin
Please do. I need insights to start a business but do not know anything
YOU ARE AMAZING!
Great information.
Love your channel! I’ve learned so much. Do you perfect gloss or matte vinyls for decals or both?!
New subscriber! Thanks for this video! I just opened my very own Redbubble shop.
Thank you so much! Good luck on your shop and small business journey!
I'm not entirely sure if it would work for the blue strait edge she held up. But they seem similar to ski wax scrapers I use and I have started to run them across a metal file (from harbor frieght) when they become dull.
I assume this would work for these straight edge squeegees if they are firm
Thank you for sharing and inspiring ✨❤️
Thank you so much for watching! 😊
Have a few questions about the silhouette and cricut. Was looking for cutter to make print and cut stickers and decals and to cut fabric for Application . Was trying to figure out which one would be best for me thanks for and help you can give me. Thanks again
Hi Sallie, is the vinyl you mentioned here the star craft one? The one you used in Mar2020 video
Always enjoy your videos, after your advice, I purchased a big roll of Rtape AT65 from US cutter, and it doesn't even stick to my oracal 651, do you know what that is??? I spend $50 on this roll and it doesn't stick. Thanks!
What color of vinyl for car windows? White/Black matte/glossy or can you use any color?
Do you have problems with transfer tape on glossy vinyl? Everytime I would go to peel mine off, it would pull the sticker with it. Does the AT65 have that problem?
I’d like to see what else you make with your label maker please
Video coming on this soon! 😊
Hi there. Im wondering if you have ever had a customer complain to you about the decal not sticking to the wall, and then blaming you for it? Im hesitant on doing a decal business because of this. Who is to say they dont mess it up and then turn around and blame you? Do you put instruction in with your packaging? If so would you be able to share them?
Just found your channel and you have some great info and advice! But i just wanted to warn you that the free fonts from dafont are almost always for personal use only and not to sell unless you buy the license too!
Yes, I definifely buy the license for the fonts that I'm profiting from! There are a ton of 100% free on there as well. Thanks for pointing that out for others that may not know this.
The 751 would be better for tumblers/things getting washed more often? Or should I use 651?
Also for outdoor signs, yard decor 751 would be the way to go?
Would love to know how to actually start selling online with all the competition such as on etsy.
Hi Sallie, thanks for the video! I'm planning to apply for a license...did u already make a how to video?😊
Hello !!!! In this video you recommended the DYMO label maker, but not long ago you said on another video or live that you were thinking about getting another one, different brand. Why are you getting the other brand ?
Can vinyl decals be placed on handbags (inexpensive handbags, of course), as decoration? I have some very plain polyurethane purses I would like to "jazz up."
Thank you!!!
Great video..........which size transfer tape do you order? Thank you!
What brand of vinyl cutter do you recommend
i have subscribed to your channel and have been watching your awesome and informative tutorials and videos. i started with cricut then purchased sawgrass hg 1000 for submlimation. recently purchase cameo 4 pro. hasnt arrived yet. im hopeing the cameo will conform with the print setting for saw grass suplimation print and cut bc ive done prints on cricut creative studio then on sgprint manager software and the options for substraits and detail are so much better in the end results. are you familiar with sublimation when it comes to print and cut options for setting up detailed substraits and paper types from cameo to print then cut? its perfect when sending through printer from sawgrass creative studio but not good from cricut design space. hoping the new one will be compatible with the registration marks and countouring along with the vibrant colors i get from my sg1000 subprinter on the vinyl cuts for shirts caps etc. THANKS
Don't you need to pay for a program monthly to make shipping labels with the thermal printer? tia :)
Did you mention a printer? which one do you recommend?
I love your videos! Just subscribed. I do have a question for you...you mentioned buying tumblers to personalize? Where do you recommend buying them? I've been looking and the prices are so high that I don't see how I would make a profit :( Please let me know if you have a place to buy them wholesale or at a decent price. And thank you so much for making these videos. They're so inspiring! Keep it up!!!!
Thank you so much! I buy my tumblers at saveacup.com. This is where I've found to have the best price. The more you buy, the cheaper they are and there is always free shipping. Good luck!
@@SimplySallie Thank you so much for replying. There are so many CZcamsrs that don't reply to their followers, and it's so refreshing to see that you care about your followers. I look forward to seeing many more of your videos. Good luck and keep it up!!!
Hello I want to start doing my decal business which starter kit did you get there are so many on Amazon I’m looking at and he silhouette 4 starter pack there’s a few different kits
If it were me now, i would order the machine by itself, and get a bunch of vinyl from my craft source. You can get small rolls really low cost. You can get mats at hobby lobby (paper studio) too. Amazon is great for some of those little accessories youll need. You'll end up saving a lot of money and you probably won't use a lot of the stuff that come in the kits! ❤️
What kind of printer would you suggest for printing cards and stationary?
Need to know how to establish a business license
Hi, Sallie
I just came across your channel and it’s so informative, I have a question if you don’t mind, what kind of printer can I use to make huge decal vinyl floor wraps for wedding dance floors? I’m interested in that,please let me know if you have any suggestions 🤗 Thank you
Hi! I am honestly not sure about that. Cool idea though!
where do you get your Transfer tape- Rtape Clear Choice AT65 from?
👌👌👌🙏🙏great video tysm
What is the name of your wood cutting machine? And all the tools you use to make the wood frames.
Hi! I actually have a video on everything you need to create wood signs. It will be very helpful in answering this question 😊
good video
While this is great information, I think there are more important things such as copyright and using fonts on dafont is not allowed on products you sell unless you have the commercial use license. :( I think that should be discussed more as it is very important
I do go into copyright on my video "do this before starting your etsy shop". This video was based on ifems and supplies mostly. 😊 these videos are part of a series of videos I've been doing on starting a shop.
