    Your video popped up on my feed and I think you are so talented! I’m not sure if you are still doing markets, but if you are I have a great tip for you. I saw another seller have a long portable mirror. At the top it said “You Look Gorgeous!”. She also sold bags and people would try the bags and check themselves out on the mirror. Your customers could use it for the bags and earrings! 😊 Just an idea.

    • @sowhatstudio_

      that is such a cute idea!!! I really felt like I was missing a few items at my booth. Mostly I felt like I couldn't interact with my customers as much and they were hesitant to touch the items. When I don't mind at all. My yarn items aren't all that fragile lol!! This mirror idea could help in that<3 tysm!

    Hello Michelle! I’m watching you, but you’ve given me hope to create something. I’m from a small town in Russia and I’m slowly creating keychains/badges from canvas, I’m also trying to learn how to knit, create something from clay and also from felt. There was a lot of worry about this, that maybe someone wouldn’t particularly like my idea and idea, but it worked out anyway! I do everything in a measured manner and make people happy on TikTok and hope that my products will be bought. So thank you for the inspiration you gave me in this choice of path. Sincerely, a Russian fan of your work ✨

My life has finally gotten to a place where I can support my dreams and I've been in such a creative rut now that I have the space to really dive into my creative practice.

Those are the most interesting life stories, where the person had to try a bunch of things before something eventually floated their boat. I'm paraphrasing Jerry Yarnell, the TV painting teacher guy who said something like, "Bravery isn't not being afraid to do something. It's being afraid to do something, and then doing it afraid." Looks like you've got pretty mad crafting skills too. I'm subbing your channel so I can swing by here from time to time.

    I've definitely felt this urge to question why I think my work is special enough to add yet ANOTHER sticker seller to Etsy, but early on when I was starting my shop, I remember asking my self that question and I realized, as trite and cliche as it sounds, I do it because there is only one me. Even if there are hundreds of others who do exactly what I do on that platform I am the only one bringing my personality and "me-ness"! Two people can make exactly the same item, but they will inherently be different because we each bring our own individuality to a piece simply due to the fact that we are individuals with a different set of experiences and attitudes from one person to the next.

    Ive been struggling with confidence for me and my art. I made these hand sewn felt creatures during the lockdown and i have a small collection that im too scared to show off.

      aww i understand how you’re feeling 🥺. i think sometimes it helps to start small. the confidence will grow as you improve and try new things. confidence is not a prerequisite- it comes later, in my experience. if you’re willing, you can send me a message privately if you’d like some new eyes on your creations🥰 but no pressure at all - only if you feel like it🫶❤️‍🩹!!! xo no pressure and no rush. anytime at all.💕💕
