And thank you to my lovely mother for helping me pack a very large chunk of the orders we had after the last t-shirt launch! We managed to fold, pack and ship over two thirds of the orders together 💖 Join me in this vlog as I pack a mountain of t-shirts (I will be forever grateful), start designing a new website, prep for a market and design a new enamel pin!

I absolutely love the stationary addict art. I am a stationary addict. Haha. My first thought is its missing to do list, notepads, planner pads because I use those religiously. Forever writing notes and lists. I actually like the bigger size as well over the smaller. I love the colorful design. Great work.
Have you ever tried prepackaging your shirts in the clear polybags while they're stored on the shelves? I used to do that in my clothing resell business and it made the shipping process so much easier.
The clear organizers you might be thinking of are sometimes nail polish or makeup palette containers that people convert into sticker organization!
Amazing!! Thanks so much I'll look for these! xxxx
That's what I use for my stickers lol
That's what I was about to comment as well! My table partner in conventions uses nail-polish organizers and made little dividers since some of her stickers have rounded bottoms
@@SalviAlmighty oooOOOooo how did she make the dividers???
I love the "defective" print. it looks like it's actually unraveling.
Aww thank you that’s such a lovely way to put it!
If you count out ten sheets of tissue paper and weigh them, times that by 100. This should be what the whole pack of paper weighs.
Of COURSE! This makes so much sense ahahah about to do it now hehe xxx
You could do an entire packing video, and I would be satisfied 🤣 I loooove the new packaging!!
No way really!!! Hahah I loveee packing videos but I also love videos with chatting/movement etccc it's so hard! xxx
@CoconuTacha yes, it's true a little chatting here and there to break it up never hurt anyone 🤣🤣
Same I love packing videos, I put them on while I'm creating or packing myself lol I also like it when the person talks while packing so I don't have to lose focus reading subtitles the entire time. I'll watch them as I'm going to sleep sometimes too so reading subtitles forces me to stay awake longer than I'd like to which is not good and defeats the purpose lol
New pink tissue paper looks beautiful. 👌👌❤️❤️
Thank you so, so much!! :D xxx
Your mom is the best.
She really is! xxx
This is an amazing packaging and classy too.
Would you please share the name of all your packaging items and where you buy them from.
I'll really appreciate it.
Keep shining dear❤
I’m pretty sure from another channel, I heard that the clear drawers to store stickers were actually make up drawers. I’ll double check and come back 😊
I checked and they’re actually muji acrylic drawers, I hope this is what you were talking about and it helps 🤭
Oooh thank you SO much!!! That's so helpful! xxx
Love the tissue! I run a wedding stationery business and use NoIssue for my packaging. I went for the lower GSM for my first order, but then upgraded to the thicker one with the colourful background for the second order and it's amazing! I much prefer the thicker one and feels a lot more quality ☺
Oh my gosh a christmas town jumper would be amazing!
Yaasss! I've started designing it! 😁
Your new packaging supplies are so pretty and perfect for your business 😍
Yaaay thank you so much!! xxx
Love the tissue paper it’s adorable! Just wanted to say I would be mindful of customers with animal allergies 🤎 his little thank you wiggle was so cute 🥹 congrats on the 100+ orders !
Love your vlogs ❤️ it would be amazing to have more of them each month 😍
I just love your journey! I have went back through and watched all your videos and I love the journey that you have had! Congrats on the successful launch!!!
Ahhh thank you soo much! I wish I started vlogging earlier - I used to work from my bedroom in my parent's house and turned it into a 'bedroom-studio' 🤣 It was bright mint green and pink and I loved it there! xxx
I like the new tissue paper. It’s really pretty great choice.
Ahhhh I hope the market went well for you both (if ive posted after) LOVE the new packaging too
Love the new packaging!
Thank you so much Freya! xxx
Love the vlog! It feels like I have a friend working along with me. And I love the chat/rambling too.. why did I make so many stickers? I can so relate lol
Try searching nail polish organizer and there's also nail polish shelf if you want to make a diy display like your pink arch one!
I'm looking forward to the market vlog!
Omg love that! Thank you so much!! xxxxx
Love the new packaging and new pin and new designs... i would watch just packaging video 😅, its so satisfactory to watch❤. Lovely video.
Oh thank you so much! Hahah a few people have said this but I worry it would be sooo boring!? xxx
You can always mix 1 sheet of solid pink tissue with 1 sheet of customized tissue if the opacity is an issue!
OMG GENIUS!!!! YES!!!! xxxx
He knows that you work hard for his food😂 what a cutie dog!😭
Omg I know right!! T_T He melts me!!! xxx
congrats on all your sales. thanks for the info about the transfers really apprecite it and am enjoying watching your journey.
quick question...have heard the htvront presses dtf transfers well but doesnt hold up well with wash tests due to not enough pressure. wondering if you could give your opinion on using htvront auto press for dtf
I like Pink!
Me too!! xxx
Great vlog as normal. I love packing videos and I love packing orders too. 🥰
Your new pin looks fantastic. I love the blue background one.
I worry about my style too, but I am so early in my business too that I don’t have an established customer base either.
I haven’t seen the display boxes for stickers.
Looking forward to your next Vlog.
Thank you so much Angela! I agree the blue background looks loads better! I'm sending them off today, fingers crossed they arrive in time for Christmas! Oh, please don't worry about your style too much if you are new! Styles are constantly changing and developing - even the most established artist's work is so different now to what it was when they first started, I bet! xxx
@@CoconuTacha thank you. I am not too worried about my style now, I can see how much it’s changed and developed over the past year, I just have moments of panic. 😂 But I think we all have those moments. 🥰
As your designs have thicker outlines, have you ever thought about doing a colouring book?
Oooh yes I have! I've actually created some colouring pages for my Patreons 🥰 It's not something I've looked into seriously though... 🤔xxx
the new packaging looks lovely. i love love love the swing tags you use on your tshirts and jumpers...the cardstock used to make them looks sooo premium..can i ask who your supplier is? or for the link to the cardstock you use if you make them youself?
I loved the authenticity of this video! I struggle asking for help too, I think it’s a control thing or something or feeling like a burden or fear of being let down. I’ve been slowly breaking out of that and finding many do want to be there and help me. I’m happy to see you’ve had so many orders!
Also for the bigger square designs, have you thought about making t shirts that have a small like single chest design on the corner and then the big design can be on the back? I love shirts like that.
It's definitely so hard to ask for help! I hate being a burden haha I totally get what you mean! Oooh that's such a good idea!!! xxxx thank you so much lovely! xx
@@CoconuTacha you’re so welcome!
I love No Issue!! I order loads of tissue from them. The one colour is a lot thinner than the 2 colour. Yes cut in half and it will last for ages. Your packaging is lovely.
Ooh that's good to know! I wanted the two colour option so bad but its quite pricey! Thank you so much for your kind words 🥰
Ahhh I am always waiting for your vlogs ❤ I only wear black but your sweaters and tshirts are gorgeous!!
Aww thank you so much that means so much to me! xxx
Hello, I’m new here, your style and shop is amazing! I just had to pause and comment, as I’m at the point when you are talking about finding your style. About 3 mins ago in this video I had paused it to show my daughter your website, and I literally was saying to her that it’s great you have such a cohesive style and brand, and I’m jealous as I haven’t really found my style yet! I just wanted to let you know that your style deffo came across to us and we think it’s fab! X
For the stationary addict design, I personally love bigger designs on t-shirts. I don't like buying shirts that have the tiniest image slapped on because it feels like an afterthought/ such a waste of space. Also, I love packing videos so much XD
Absolutely love your channel and business, extremely proud of you and your success. Keep up the hard work! I was just wondering where you buy your blank t shirts from and where you get the compostable cello bags for the t shirts. Thank you so much ❤
You are doing so good. ❤ share some designing tips and how to make stickers too if possible
The packaging is lovely, do you order your pins from here or China? Thank you 😊 💓
Nice organization
Thank you so much! My mother is the organisation QUEEN though 💖
I think your stickers look great. What a nice touch putting them on a card. Have your tried Amazon for sticker holders? I have 2 of yours on my printer. So colorful and unique compared to others.
Aww thank you so much! I'm going to look at makeup/lipgloss holders apparently they're pretty good but im sorta liking the backing cards now hehehe xxx
Love the lilac 'One more Chapter' t- shirt you are wearing at the start of the video. Will you be printing them on this lilac colour too?
As for the markets on your own, I always do them on my own and apart from not being able to have a look around myself I have always been fine.
Hope it went well for you!
I was totally fine but missed my boyfriend lifting all the heavy stuff during set up and packing away hehehe I realised just how much he always helps! 💖 I don't have plans to print the 'one more chapter' on lilac, at the moment this is available on the gorgeous natural oat colour 😁 xxx
How do you find all of the markets to go to in uk? Would love to visit one of your markets
Love your content and style? What kind of printer are you using at home for your cards and your print then cut stickers? (I looked at the description but did not see it 😊)
Thank you so much! Of course - it's a Canon Pixma Pro 100S - it's great but it drinks ink like no tomorrow! I recommend an Epson XP 970, the same quality but much more affordable and much better on ink! xx
I love your tshirts. The designs and colors are so cute. I’m debating on starting a small business. My designs use images purchased on CANVA and then I design them. Are your designs hand drawn ? I’m wondering if products sell better if they are hand drawn.
Thank you so much! Yes I draw everything by hand 😁 I use a Wacom pen so everything is drawn straight into my design programme ready for editing. I use Affinity designer - I LOVE IT! (not an ad but I wish I was an affiliate hahaha) xxx
When will you restock your tote bags???
Hi lovely! One more chapter, stationery addict and pumpkin spice totes are currently back in stock! xxx
I ordered the Pumpkin Spice shirt for my daughter and she was SO THRILLED with the packaging and the shirt!!!!
As soon as my apparel comes in from the print shop, I tag and bag everything right away so when I get orders it only takes a few seconds to pack one.
I can only dream of being this organised & prepared 💖 maybe one day! Hats off to you!! xxx
May I ask you where and size of t-shirts box do you get ??? Thanks
Of course! These are C4 sized and fit lovely through a letterbox 😁 xxx
I love the tissue paper. You are definitely overthinking how it looks
Thank you soooo much! I thought I was! I love it now! 😁 xxx
❤
Beautiful Business ❤ I also have my online Tshirts & more Business . My question to you is how ? What’s your key to make sells I’m low on sells ?
put the big ones on bag and the smaller on shirts
I always have issues with coloring my designs bc I love my designs to be bright like yours are but the colors never come out right any suggestions?
Try printing in RGB! You're not supposed to 👀 but my printers print SO much better when I make my designs in RGB heheh xxx
Ok I need to know how you split up your categories with the circles on the website...thank you###
Oooh what do you mean? Let me know which page xx It may be down to the template! x
Lol this is what I get for watching multiple studio vlogs. I'm thinking this might have been meant for katnipps vlog lol 😆 but I'm going to check lol 😆
Hi darling where did u get the tissue paper from hun
Hi lovely! The tissue is from No Issue :) xxx
@@CoconuTacha thanks
I love finding new local businesses!! Id love a cardiff one, cant wait to see what you come up with 🥰
Yaaay! It's currently in production as we speak 👀 xxx
What T-shirts do you use or sweaters?
Who make your enamel pins.thank😊
Hello 😊 What is the measurement of your box?
Hello how much are your shirts
Hello. Please teach me this business to I will be very
Do you really need to put every shirt in plastic? The tissue paper is enough?
I agree! I think getting rid of the plastic bag would make it look and feel more professional and also eco friendly xx
Hihi! The cellos are made with corn starch and are bio-degradable 🥰 But I agree I would love to use less packaging! I just wanted the t-shirts to arrive without any water damage as we were experiencing lots of heavy rainfall and lots of damaged mail during this time 🙏🏻 xxx Lovely wet Wales ☔️
Too much packing materials for just 1 t-shirt. Poor Mother Earth.
Everything is recyclable or compostable 🥰 xxx
