    Hi friends~
    I've been a full-time, self-employed small business owner for almost two years now. This year I want to focus more on self-development and finding my inner peace while continuing to learn, try new things, and improve my clothing brand. Let's grow together. 2023 will be our year!
    Join me as I document the ups and downs of running my small business from home. I hope you find the courage to love yourself and pursue your passion through these vlogs.
    Love,
    Kayla

    I love the idea of tufting! It adds such a warm and cozy look into your home and it isn’t something you see as commonly with other creators. Everything you make is adorable and I’ll definitely be buying soon ☺️ I also love how honest you are in your videos about mental health and burnout. To me that just feels very real, especially as someone who’s barely starting my own business. I get really bad anxiety and creators block, sometimes I just want to go to bed but your videos have definitely been inspiring ❤ I appreciate you and I’m glad I found your channel 🥰

    I'm paying off the repairs next week for my embroidery machine that I got second-hand and finally starting embroidery for the first time, so I've been taking in as much inspiration and tips/tricks/hacks/ideas as I can!! Definitely added a few things to my amazon wishlist after watching just one of your videos. This is my second! I just have to add on to everyone else commenting on your mom being your helper--- it's so sweet oh my gosh! I just loved seeing her focused and working hard. I love it. My mom works as a seamstress and has been a seamstress since before I was born (over 25 years) but she gets paid less than I do at a company that she's been at for a few years. I honestly hope that my business grows big enough so I can employ her and pay her soooo much more 🥺

  • @anneloeliger5337
    @anneloeliger5337 Před rokem +2

    Your new line looks amazing! Good for you for trying something new - even when it is a little scary! There is never anything wrong with taking a step back for a mental break. Burnout is real and scary and takes a long time to recover. Glad that tufting was a therapeutic outlet for you!! Also - I personally like the voiceovers! I think it added another layer to your videos and made it more personal! Love the video transitions as well! Always love your content and look forward to your next collections!!

    I think you’re awesome! I love all your items! I had a couple of questions! How did you figure out where to purchase blanks and other items you use? To me it seems like a daunting task with all the businesses that sell the same items you need! You need a company that has great prices and quality without being charged too much and still make a good profit is important and super difficult to find! Where did you start looking and how did you end up with the businesses that you deal with now? And how did you find the artists that you worked with for your clothing line? I think if you can do a series of videos on how you got started and how you figured out what you needed and where to get it would be fabulous content!

    I hope you invest in more machines that make your life easier!! Also, handwriting each card definitely takes a lot of your time. You could get a Cricut or a 3d printer and program it to write all the cards for you and no one would know ;) 加油! Also, judging by the amount of sales you have based on your inventory, you could totally get a DTG printer ;) Makes life so so so so much easier and your prints will be top-quality but I'm sure you already know!
