Keep your eyes peeled friends, I will have a bonus video for you this week! HINT: it’s a tutorial!! 🌸 🌼🫶🏻🥰😘
Spell check your Trinket sign 😅
If you didnt put the sign out with what could be in the box they wouldn't know what they were missing. A mystery box is a game of chance. You get what you pick.
Next time put color dot stickers on the bottom of the boxes so you can tell what is in each one. That way if this happens again instead of having to open them all you can just look at the sticker and hand them the one they want.
Yes! That is a great idea! I will absolutely be doing something like that for next time!! Thank you!🥰
Good idea 👍
The parent should have handled the situation better and not put you in that position where you felt awkward. You did a lovely thing by opening the boxes xx
Thank you so much that is so sweet of you to say! And I agree, I wish the parent wouldve stepped in!
Definitely make someone keep/pay for something they ripped. I saw another vendor nix the sign for the mystery boxes, maybe just do a silhouette of the shape/size to give them idea but no real images? Also the cherries as a trinket tray are a bit strange imo, but if you made them full balls they'd be super cute rear view mirror hangers!
Love the trinket dishes. Loved them all!
I started doing mystery boxes from your suggestion thank you by the way. I have definitely found it’s better not to let them know what their options are. They will get their heart set on one and be disappointed when they don’t get it if they see their options. No sign is better or one just saying mystery box and the price. If they ask I just say it’s a tiny plushie. It’s a surprise. It could be anything and they still buy it. I also put stickers and candy in mine 😊
Also this gives you the freedom to make whatever tiny plushies you want!
That is very interesting. Thank you for sharing the input and the candy is a great idea to add in as well! I will have to try removing the key and see how that goes for me! Thanks! 😊
That mystery box sign is such a good idea!!
Thank you so much!
This video was fab. Laughing at how rude people are being at pointing out a wee spelling mistake without anything nice to say! Youre doing great ❤
aha! Thank you so much! And I know, it seemed alittle excessive but thank you I appreciate you!🥰
Hi I enjoyed your vblog . I have a suggestion for your mystery boxes and the situation you had with the kiddo. I would take the pictures away and use words like small plushie included. Children need to be excited about the mystery of what's in the box instead of expecting a specific plushie. And once they see the possibilities they focus on the one they want. I see it all the time with the store bought eggs.
If you want the pictues you could do a picture where the pictures overlay each other and only the top one is completely visible. This way the get an idea but not all if them show. Then there shouldn't be too much disappointment.
Ohh yes! Thank you for that suggestion, because I really dont feel comfortable not providing the sign but I love the idea of the overlay! I think I will try to reformat my sign to be like that! Thank you so much, that was really helpful! 🥰
I’d love a tutorial for the 8 ball trinket dish!! I love all of your work!
Thank you so much! And okay thats good to know, I can work on putting one together 🥰🎱
Fun to see how someone sells their craft items, you are very good at it...and enjoy the tutorials😍
Thank you so much for your kind words 🥰 I’m so happy you’re enjoying my videos!
Love watching you! So fun! Good luck at your next market!
Thank you so much! you're so sweet!🥰
I would keep one or two extra of each item that is in the mystery boxes behind the counter so to speak. That way if you hear someone is hoping for a specific plushie you can (based on age and chances of them ruining your boxes) just offer to sell them the one they want at the same price.
So cute 🥰 love the Trinket dishes cute idea good luck
Thank you so much!!🥰
the chalk detail on the succulents is SO CUTE!!! I'm inspired!! it adds so much to it 🥰
Right?! Thank you so much!!
I love the Stanley koozies!! Definitely need more details about those :)
Yay! Next weeks vlog Ill be talking wayy more about them! Its a pattern I wrote and wasnt finished with yet so thats why I didnt touch on them but Ill be giving all the details on it next week so stay tuned! 🥰
love what you said about bringing the different items to display your skill level. I do this with my caridgans, and its a great way to start conversations.
Totally! It is a great way to start conversation! Im really glad to hear you do the same! Thats wonderful!
Great content. Fun market set up. I hope you’ll share how to make the cherry and eight ball trinket dishes.
Thank you so much! I will work on a mini tutorial for those trinket dishes! 😊
Your table was gorgeous & yes very colorful was my 1st impression too.
Thank you so much that is so sweet of you!🥰

Thanks for the tips! I’ve been playing around with selling hair accessories, and maybe I will put a wig on a styrofoam head and then put the clips on the wig!
Oh thats a great idea and creative way to show off the clip!
Maybe on your mystery box have them color coded so you know what is each box so that if that happens in the future you can cut it off at the pss! Love your videos, thanks for sharing 💕
Yes! I love that idea, thank you for the suggestion! 🥰I will definitely be implementing a system like that now that I've had this experience!
Oops! Your trinket sign is misspelled. Maybe you’ll catch it before your market.
Yes I was informed! Lol thank you so much! Too busy focusing on the design to notice the word😂
Very nice all stuff
Thank you 😊
You are so creative! I crochet but haven’t for a while but now I want to so bad!
YES! If you want to you should pick it back up!
Love those purses!
Thank you! 😊
You are so talented, thank you for sharing! I am so getting those markers! And, even as I am thanking, I am asking 😂…
Would you consider showing how you design your signs, as I know what I like but don’t know how to get there, especially on a tiny chalkboard. I would also love to see some of your highlights on your displays (what you thought worked especially well). Maybe even other vendors’ ideas , but of course, only do what you want to do with your channel. I don’t have your sense of design so just trying to sit at your feet and learn.
Awh thank you so much! I appreciate all your kind words and suggestions! I totally understand what you are saying and Im sure I can work all these things into upcoming videos for you! 🥰
Oh heck no! They got a mystery box, they don’t get to go through all the other boxes.
You say, I’m sorry that’s not how the mystery boxes work.
AND all sales are final!
i couldnt agree more! Ill be much more prepared to deal with that situation next time!!
My thoughts exactly. Forgot to put on my display but will do that before Saturday
So sorry that you had the experience happen with your mystery boxes glad you shared that with us because I have bought some of the boxes I love a good mystery item so what's planning to figure out a way to set them up in my booth.
Oh im glad you got some! I too love a good mystery box! Im going to keep it up and keep doing them 100%! I think now that it happened Im way less anxious because worst comes the worst, its fixable! But please let me know how yours go! I will say every other reaction to them was overwhelming positive so I still think they are a huge success and definitely recommend but also recommend making a key for possibilities !🥰
@@BlondieKnots I have a 10 year old that's doing so well with crocheting and she wants to make summer I have a 10 year old that's doing so well with crocheting and she wants to make some so we will definately let you know
@@anniekorn577 That is so precious and fantastic! I CANT WAIT to hear all about it!🥰 I wish her all the luck!
Great set up
Glad you think so!
A suggestion for your mystery boxes, so that you don't need to open them all open to find a particular item. Perhaps put a small letter or number on the back or bottom of the box referencing the item.
Fun! Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
I would love a video on how to find markets to do.
Good job.
thank you!!
clawe clips sooooo cute
Thank you! I have a tutorial out if you feel like making one yourself 🫶🏻🥰
🍒 cherries‼️
RIght!! 🍒
Great ideas
Thank you! 😊
Your trinket sign says tricket!
I love the mystery backpacks idea! Where did you get them?? Random question - do you happen to have a P.O. Box for your followers to send you things we make? I crochet oversized scrunchies and I recently made one I LOVE in my hair and thought you may enjoy one also. 🤗 I’d love to gift it to you.
The backpack boxes I have linked in my last vlog, they are from Temu and I added the question mark stickers myself! And oh my gosh you're THE SWEETEST! I love scrunchies so much and I would love one, unfortunately I dont have a PO box at the moment. But I'll look into it and keep you updated. This made my day though, youre a gem !!
@@BlondieKnots ha! I totally missed the link, thank you for letting me know. I’ll go back and grab it. :) And yeah, if you ever set one up please let me know. I wish you much continued success!! 🌸
I'm mean I wouldn't let them pick what's inside the MYSTERY box. Maybe in future ask what color box they want and hand it to them after they pay
That is always how I do it, unfortunately in this scenario the child opened it and threw a fit so i was just trying to defuse it as quick as possible but like I said it was the only issue I had with them! Everyone else loved the mystery aspect of it !
I like you , I’m here to stay boo !
Your sweet! Welcome, I’m so happy to have you here! 😊
have you ever considered trying to do like the crochet hair bandanas ? i think that would be a hit !
I have considered that! I have never found a pattern I really enjoy for them! If you have a recommendation please let me know!
Hi, I really enjoy your videos and your work. Love the idea of trinkets dishes.
Just thought I would point out to you that your sign for them is missing the N x
Hi there, thank you so much, Im really glad you are enjoying the videos! 🥰
Thank you so much for pointing that out. That really made me giggle to realize I spelt that wrong. You'd think I looked at it long enough to realize that! Lol thank you again, I never claimed to be a talented speller😂
Show. 👍🏻👏🏻
I'm thinking of doing mystery bags since I can't find the little boxes like you have and even though they are mystery bags I need a way to keep track of what is going out so it can be replaced. My thought is to put a small number on the bottom so I can track inventory. Just a thought on your boxes
The boxes are linked in my last vlog if youre interested and then the question marks just off of amazon! But yes!! I thought about doing this too just for my own sake as well! That's a great idea! 🥰
@@BlondieKnots it's to keep what happened to you from happening. It also means at end of day, you know what needs to be replaced for the next show
@@Elysabeth42 agreed!
Love everything you do I am doing my first market in May I think if I am ready I feel like I don't have enough. Another question is are you related to Anne Elise crochet?
Thank you so much! I sometimes also can feel like I don’t have enough but do remember you’re a one person show and you have to give yourself some grace! Whatever you have and bring with you will be just perfect! Your first show always feels that way because you start from 0, inventory wise, the more you do shows the more you’ll be able to build up inventory! So don’t worry too much! I wish you all the luck at your first show!🥰Also I’m not sure who that is, but no I am not related to them
Next time you do mystery boxes maybe keep one of each plushies out just behind your table in case something like that happens again and then they can just buy the one they want.
Thats a really good idea! Im going to keep that in mind, thank you so much for the input!
❤❤❤❤
Loved everything especially the lined bags, just curious how much did you sell them for, if you don’t mind sharing.
I dont mind sharing at all! I sold these bags for $35 and that seemed to be a very reasonable price for people! 🥰
@@BlondieKnotswow, that is awesome. I love seeing your work, thanks for the inspiration! Best of luck on your upcoming journey
Subscribed 😊
Welcome!! I’m so happy to have you here!❤️🥰
Maybe number your plushies for the Mystery Boxes and put a small number on the bottom of the back pack.
I agree! I need some type of ‘key’ for them!
Did you say you put pink chalk on the succulents? They are pretty 😍
Thank you! And yes, regular pink or red chalk will do the trick!🥰
You have such cute things! 😭 What are the yipyips for?
Thank you so much, friend ! The yip yips are little car hangers! You can throw your chap stick, glasses, change whatever you want in them!
your sign tells they're are tricket dishes
Instead of trinket dishes
Hopefully you were able to fix it before!
Where did you get the backback boxes? Way cute. Do you have a link to all these cute patterns????
I linked them in my last studio vlog if youre interested! And best place to find pattern links is on my Pintrest, Blondieknots, in the folder labeled market makes! 🥰
Just noticed your sign says triCket dishes!
Did you make the mystery box?
I really want to start crocheting. I just don’t know where to start 😩
it can be really intimidating at first but its very fun. Start small, there are many videos on youtube you can use to learn simple stitches and how to hold your hook, everything you need to get started. Just dont get discouraged, it does take awhile to learn. But I believe in you, take it one step at a time and youll get there!
Trinket, I think you missed the N! Oopsy!
I was informed! Lol thank you so much, I feel so silly! 😂❤
so much work…… wondering how you did?
Can you post the link for the boxes please ☺️
I have them linked in my studio vlog from 3 weeks ago! If youre interested!
forgot the N in trinket
Hate to tell you this… but scrunchies is spelled incorrectly too. You are missing the “c”.
Loved your display
well dang, dont I feel foolish. Okay, thank you so much. I will fix it immediately
It can happen to anyone. Thank you for your videos. I love your ideas. I try to make some different things to stand out as well.
Your sign says tricket not trinket
Your sign for trinket dishes is missing thr 'n'.
Not criticising just I would have liked being told if I made a mistake.
Thank you so much for pointing it out to me! I dont know how I did that! lol
TriNket
Yes I was informed, thank you !
That kid is a spoilt brat! A mystery box is a mystery, as per the label - and you accept the toy that you get! You should have been paid or the damage to your product. That’s your work! How selfish of the kid, and their parents too.
I completely agree. I did my best to keep it as respectful as I could explaining it but you said it right 😅 thank you for making me not feel like I am being dramatic!🫶🏻
You have trinket spelled wrong.
Thank you!
Sorry, you misspelled trinket.
Thank you!
