- Follow me over two days as a SAHM/WAHM running two busy Etsy based embroidery shops. Alllll the behind the scenes on our day to day life!
If you are new here, I am Ashley and I operate TWO Etsy embroidery shops full time from my home studio. Over 3 years ago, I traded in my RN job and stethoscope to stay home and operate my businesses full time when I could no longer keep up with both! Now I have a beautiful little girl at home with me (and another baby on the way) that keeps me busy alongside my shops.

Rewatching while I do boring house stuff 🥰 less boring now! More long vlogs please!
Coming right up next week 🤪
I love your method of no show pollymesh and tear away with spray adhesive. Since switching to your method it has made my production soooo much faster and the quality so much better ❤
I'm so glad to hear it helped you! Thanks for watching ❤.
Yay 😀 Vlog. Can watch while I work.
Something you might consider is playing some lullaby music in her room in back ground to block any noise. It always worked with grandkids.
I've not tried that but we do have a white nose machine on in her room that helps tremendously! It's just not 100%.
@@AshleyMonograms I agree with Bev on noise in the background. At first I thought these sound machines were silly but they really work along with black out curtains. The one my daughters used is the Hatch Rest. It’s Bluetooth also. Got it at target along with a extended warranty in case falls on the ground and breaks. It’s the best thing to block out noises. Also great for new babies too. Especially if you are traveling and need to block out noises they are not used to. Just thought.
From the time I brought my babies home from the hospital, I had a radio on in their room for background noise. I could run the vacuum, someone could ring the doorbell and I could use my sewing machine and it didn’t disturb them.
I have several of the Mighty Hoop backing rings and don’t use them every time but do use them on occasion.
We do have a sound machine in her room with white noise, which does help tremendously. It just does not cover the sound of 3 machines directly below her!
For the MH stabilizer holder, I actually hoop upside down, it’s much easier! So put the little holder on table then stabilizer and snap the MH lower piece (the one without the brackets) INTO the stabilizer holder instead of the holder over the MH (this way it will not come off one side while you do the other). Hope this makes sense LOL
I'll try that today! Thanks for the tip!
Great job.... multi tasking at it's best.
It’s nice seeing what you usually get up to. Great video Ashley 😊
Thanks for watching ❤
Thank you for the Vela software information, what a game changer!!
Great job! Ashley. Your little princess is beautiful 🤩
Thanks!
Hey Ashley! Congrats on the pregnancy. So exciting!
Thank you!!
This was such a fun video to watch! ❤❤
She is adorable!
Thanks 🤗
Definitely a busy bee!!! Good job getting the orders done!!
Great job momma 👏🏿 🙌🏿
Your Princess is sooo cute 😍😍😍
Thanks :)
I’m thinking about ordering the backing holder for my mighty hoops. You’ll have to let us know if you grow to love them or not. Blakeley is the cutest!
I will update once I've used it a little more!
Love the applique RN on the dark red Sweatshirt 😍! Where did you get the large applique font?
Thanks! It is the collegiate double satin from Creative Applique creativeappliques.com/shop/collegiate-double-satin-alphabet-applique-design/
Your little Princess is so cute! What size Mighty Hoop do you use for your kids shirts? Thank you.
I like the 8x9 for 2T and larger kids shirts.
I purchased, and returned, my MH back holder as I did not find it helpful.
I think I am wasting more stabilizer trying to make it work, but I'm trying to give it time!
I’m just curious do you pay for Etsy ads. If it’s to personal I understand. I’m just wondering if it worth it I’m just scared. Lol. Thanks Lisa.
I do use ads, but not all the time. My opinion is that ads will only be beneficial if you have already optimized your SEO & pictures. I've had varying levels of success with Etsy ads (from zero to amazing haha).
@@AshleyMonograms Thank You, I’m going to give it try. I will not eat for a week. Lol. Jk. You baby is soooooo adorable. YT hugs
what font do you use for the jacket? I have been looking a tiny font.
Which one? There are multiple, but most were from The Itch 2 Stitch.
