    since I was a wee child, I loved going to stationery stores and places like hobby lobby to pick up cute post-it notes, shiny stickers, and rolls of beautiful washi tape. to say that I have started my own lil shop from home would’ve made little linh proud. here is a (kinda not) informational and semi-emotional journey of opening starfruit press! cheers to new beginnings.
    signing off,
    linh
    thanks for watching! 🌻

    For everyone who want to start a business but don't do it because they're afraid to buy a bunch of supplies and don't sell : start little, look how it does and grow bigger whenever you feel comfortable.
    Start with just one thing with differents visuals, it might be earings, stickers, tote bags, whatever you want!
    Just start small and grow bigger, or don't! Maybe it won't go anywhere but at least you'll have done it. It's an new experience, congratulation : you're a little wiser now!
    Don't pressure yourself on doing big from the start and succeeding in everything you do. It's okay if things don't work out. It's better to have done it.
    Hope you'll find what it takes for you to make it happens. I believe in you.

They are super low demand items (very very targeted niche) but since they are unique and no one is selling them (well 1 other person is selling one of the items) they are seeing success. I know your comment is a year old, but I highly recommend just taking the dive. Also if you're afraid no one will know about it, just do a video like this girl did or post to social media about it.

      Adding texture helps for flat coloring or for hiding any unsteady lines.
      Using some sort of base is great help.
      Get a bunch of references for what you like.

      Let me tell you what I tell all my friends who think they can't draw:
      You can.
      Who says you can't? Who says any one else can?? Art is subjective. No one can tell you if it's bad or not. There may be sour notes in music, but not in art.
      So just start! Finding your style is fun and exciting! If you're having trouble start tracing! Watch old Disney movies that are 2D and let the lines inspire you! Look at other art on pinterest! Manga! Comics! Web comics! RUclipsrs! Nature! Inspiration is everywhere! Have fun and don't let the fear of "being bad" hold you back from "getting good". Even tho there's no such things :)

    I see that this was posted in April so you probably already know about the silhouette program's "Registration marks" so that it cuts it correctly every time. There is also a "trace" function that automatically creates a cut line around your image. Using that trace function, along with the "offset" function creates that die-cut look seamlessly!

Saves a lot of money in materials from trial and error printing. I always double check new designs anyways and also work out optimal print settings as well. Hope this helps!

I love the background music, and your video editing was so dope. It has a retro feel to it! Much success to you and your business 💯💜

      Well, I just went to her Etsy shop and don't see any sticker or stationary for sale and don't see in the past sales where any ever were. Only 1 item in the shop which is some digital download for what I think are color filters for photos, presets or something like that.
