I’m recently getting into crochet, but I paint and draw and a rule of thumb for pricing I was given was to base your price off of an hourly wage. For example, if I set my hourly wages to $15/hr and I can crochet one mini bee in an hour, the price of the bee would be a minimum of $15, then you can add in cost of materials. I used to set a timer for 2 hours for pet portraits and charged $50, with my hourly rate being $20 and $10 for the paint, brushes and mediums and it was a, easy way to figure out prices since I couldn’t for the life of me figure it out.
I have never been successful at selling my crochet. The number of hours involved are too many for me. I am TRYING to go the youtube route and make how to videos. Good that you are recognizing what works for you! ❤
Girl you are TRAVELING this year!! go girl! YES FOR THE TRAVEL VLOG! Also if you decide to do the pattern for the bees, I would totally buy it!! You plowed through this order! Thank you for passing on the pop it tip. Will you ever or do you have a video on how you take your pictures of your items?
Aww you’re too sweet!! Thank you soo much :) the mini bee pattern is live on my etsy hehe! And oooh thats a great idea for a future vid, I can deff do that :)
I did the same thing with my iPad! I had the 11 pro and I liked it, but I felt it was too big. Sold it to my mom and bought the Mini. LOVE it. It’s so portable and usable.
Stopping five minutes in to tell you I feel so bad for you! You're doing the same amount of work for less money 😔 I agree with you, handmade items aren't very wholesale friendly. I love your bee pattern, definitely buying this one❤
Can we just appreciate how Gemma replies to EVERY comment! I feel like even small RUclipsrs who get 1-2 comments, they still don’t reply, and the fact that she gets hundreds of comments and replies, let’s just appreciate that
I love these long vlogs, please make more if you can! I just have to say that these videos are so well made! I love watching crochet videos while I crochet lol, I’m making a star shaped bag right now!
11:44 Those turtles ARE SO ADORABLE ❤ I love the baby turtle that Moana helps get to the ocean, and your turtles remind me of him❤💜Thanks for sharing!! from Ohio🇺🇸
Omg I am planing on going to a market this summer! I only have like 20 items so far 😢. I am also crocheting plushies and all your plushies are SO CUTE❤!
I'm in ohio so I think I need to go on a scavenger hunt to find these in person :D Glad you were able to see that wholesale wasn't worth it - your time is super valuable and you can't say yes to everything!
PLEASE make a video on how you utilize your iPad for crocheting! I got one but I feel like I don’t use it enough/ don’t know how or what for. I really need to learn notability because everyone raves about it! This was such a great video! You inspired me to open a business of my own!
Your joking,I don't know how you get the guts Franko,I sincerely am truly thankful for the content that you bring.Amazing creator and extremely brave or silly one of the two, .Nah I'm saying Franko the brave❤❤
omg i feel you, i have had people reach out to me for wholesale asking to take 30% of my profit which i just think is far too much, and I totally agree, crochet is not very wholesale friendly because it benefits small businesses that can easily mass produce things (such as stickers, alibaba goods, etc.) but handmade items (especially crochet) are very labour intensive and not great for wholesale. I do wholesale for 1 person (Strawberryboots) and I love the way she does wholesale, she lets me decide how much to sell my items to her for and the price she can sell them at, plus I get to advertise my items at her store as well which is really nice, but i haven't found/had anyone else give me a better offer than what she does. I mostly make larger items and custom items for her (not just small items).
Maybe you can put your socials or Etsy shop on labels and attach them to the plushies, and it can be like a marketing investment. You could get some new subs and potential repeat customers out of it. The shop owner shouldn't have a problem with labels if she's not trying to pass it off as if she made them, and in the end she's still profiting from your generous discount. ❤
@@crochetbygenna yes!! I second this! definitely do this! I make my own tags at home, i print my logo onto a thicker paper and whole punch it and tie it on each plushie like a tag (i do this at markets as well and I have definitely noticed a difference in follower gain and recognition on my insta) because not everyone takes a card or notices who/where they bought an item from.
24:38 it is funny to me when you’re crocheting and the little arms are dancing/slapping you like I feel like the life is coming into them as I’m going 😂😂
Girl, I am a new subscriber and I love your videos! You mentioned that you loved how the stuffed turtle heads, and what if you use them and make them pearls in a clam!
I don’t crochet but I do wholesale. I would suggest you raise your pricing even for wholesale if you plan on doing wholesale because trust they are probably charging way more double or triple what you charged them. I make candles and my smallest candles are $5 a candle for 4 oz candles which is less time than your bees. Please charge more.
You are my go to crochet channel Genna!! 💕 I’d love to see your vlog of Italy! Side note: Friends! We could totally have a crochet and drinks night 😂 every time Genna says “freaking cute” we drink! 🤩
Great video enjoyed watching and seeing work on all your animals. I can’t wait to see your office once it’s set up. Love the chubby Dino . Have a wonderful weekend and happy knitting 🧶 😊🧵🪡🤗🤩
OMG.... your no where near old😊. Keep on doing a great job. 😊 Thanks for sharing your life and teaching us.😊 10mm eyes. Yes, keep a blog ... pictures at least.😊
I have a question, so when you made the Dino’s I saw that you have not put safety eyes in and I was thinking maybe you were going to do embroidered eyes but then you showed that they were safety eyes and I wandered how you did it because when I put my safety eyes in I wait till like the second to last round but how did you put them in when you already sowed it off? I also love your RUclips and I subscribed ❤❤❤❤😊😊😊
New subscriber here. It was so nice to meet you. You are a real sweetheart and very talented. I adore everything you make. Keep up the great work. Love 💕😘 from Debbie and Dexter-Dog my sweet tiny rescued Chihuahua companion living a quiet crafty life in southern California.🙋🐾🐤🇺🇸🙏🏠✝️💕👍🌻🤞
I am just learning to crochet but I have previously sold cards that I made for Christmas and homemade birthday cards. I definitely found I could not sell the cards at a show as I could not make them cheaply enough to make it worth it. Some of my cards were 5 hours plus so asking 8 dollars seemed reasonable but did not sell well. I feel your pain in this one. Good that you are learning what works for you and what doesn’t. Great video
Hi! I personally don’t do any whole sale however I know a little bit, maybe reduce the bigger ones by maybe 30% and the smaller ones by less or some not at all, that way you are still making decent gross profit and are still getting the orders.
I dont know how i got recommended this channel but your plushies are sooo adorable. If ive never crocheted a day in my life, how hard would following a pattern be? Or is it impossible 🤔. I love the penguin pattern ❤❤❤
I just subscribed. I would totally buy that bee plushy for $8 even $10. Looking forward to next time you sell plushies!! I think I'm too intimidated to try and start, knowing nothing about making them lol. Maybe I'll learn something here ❤😊
Always love your videos (especially the long ones). Enjoy your trip! I loved the Diablo (spicy pepperoni) pizza when I lived in northern Italy. Enjoy all the yummy food and don’t forget to not drink the water from the tap (bad chemicals)!
great work i subscribed🥰🥰 to u love your positive personality , and yes of course we would love to see your travel blog ❤❤i love crocheting too im working on a quite book now soon will will upload it on my channel❤❤
My wife and I used to own a candle making company. We had a few stores ask us about doing wholesale. We dropped our prices of the candles by $1 of what we sold candles at trade fairs. That still made it profitable for us without killing our margins. I couldn't imagine cutting handmade plushies that much. Wholesale can be good, but don't cut yourself short.
Love your videos Genna!!❤ i was thinking of making a jumbo sunflower turtle, but i wanted to ask you first, for the original pattern do i multiply it by 2 or did you do something different to get the turtle jumbo? anyways, i hope you have a great trip!
@@crochetbygenna Thank you sooo much for responding Genna!! i honestly did not think you would respond, but you did!!! thanks sooooo much ❤️❤️ have a great day!!
Hi Genna! I am a young (14) crocheter myself, who aspires to be like you. You have been an inspiration. So much do that i have been messaging around and trying to get a market stall. This would be my first market. The rainbow theme you had at your market looked so pretty, so i decided to kind of do the same thing with the rainbows, but in a slight twist. Hope you don't mind 😂😂. I am really passionate about crochet and you are my definite favourite crochet youtuber. Sorry for the ramble! Quick question, for when i have my first market, how many items should i bring? I haven't been sure how many to bring. I also had an idea for a turtle: maybe an icecream turtle? The shell the icecream then you have a cone on top looking like it has fell on the turtle sorta? Thanks for reading and once again so sorry for the long message. Thank you so much Genna. I will continue to be amazed and inspired in what you do.
Aww hello!! thanks so much for the sweet message ❤️ I'm excited for you to have your first market -- the rainbow with a twist idea sounds so cool! I'd say maybe having a stock of at least 20 items would be good. I'm so glad you love crochet as much as I do! You'll defiantly succeed being so passionate!! The ice cream turtle sounds adorableee, I gotta try to make it in the future!! ❤️
@@crochetbygenna Thank you so much ❤️ I appreciate the kindness and help :D I don't think I explained the turtle that well but hopefully you get what I'm saying 🤣🤣
Hi Genna. Big fan of your work. Everything you showed is on my favorites list. Had to tell you I like the little runt chubby dino. You called him stumpy. I guess because I can relate to him. 😅 Keep up the good work. Thanks.
Hey love! I have a question… I’ve been crocheting for a while now and I just got started doing amigurumis. The thing is I’m quite knew and most I have made are from pre made patterns. I know some crocheters are okey with selling stuff you’ve made from their pattern, but I kind of feel bad about it or that it is not fair. What is your take on that? I know most you created your amigurumis down to the pattern. But I wanted to have an opinion from a fellow crocheter ❤ ty
Hello!! Excited for you to start on your amigurumi journey ❤️ Don't feel bad at all for selling the finished products if the pattern creator specified it was okay to do so! As a pattern designer myself, I always make my patterns knowing people will buy them to sell the finished products so it's seriously all good as long as the pattern designer is okay with it! ❤️
Hi Genna, How do you hot glue the eyes and have them look secure. I tried it and the hot glued eyes popped out too much where the snapped ones are more into the plushie.
Girl you deserve more than $4 a bee 🐝 especially for the effort you put into every one
I hope they’re at least shouting you out in some way to help you get more publicity 👁️
Thank you so much!! I hope they do too lololol
its less than minimum wage after deducting costs
10 to 15 dollars gor the beed. you need to charge more.
You're not a machine. You don't give that big a price break. Wholesale is more work more pressure. There are no machines to duplicate crochet.
Noooo don't reduce the cost of plushies when you already have a lot of orders! 💔 I never thought of the cons of wholesale so thanks for sharing!!
Aww of course❤️❤️ thank you!!
Genna is spoiling us with a 40 min video
Hehehe yesss!! A chunky video🫶🏼❤️
I’m recently getting into crochet, but I paint and draw and a rule of thumb for pricing I was given was to base your price off of an hourly wage. For example, if I set my hourly wages to $15/hr and I can crochet one mini bee in an hour, the price of the bee would be a minimum of $15, then you can add in cost of materials. I used to set a timer for 2 hours for pet portraits and charged $50, with my hourly rate being $20 and $10 for the paint, brushes and mediums and it was a, easy way to figure out prices since I couldn’t for the life of me figure it out.
I love how honest you are about this experience.
Aww thank you! Definitely wanted to keep it real with you guys :)
Blog suggestion “ship orders with me” I’d love to see how you package your stuffies!
Aww I love that idea, writing it down for a future video
I have never been successful at selling my crochet. The number of hours involved are too many for me. I am TRYING to go the youtube route and make how to videos. Good that you are recognizing what works for you! ❤

Would you consider doing a 'start to finish' video...taking the orders, prioritizing the orders, making the products, packing, and shipping?

Me andmysister (4) were watching ur video she was so shocked when she saw you making everything
Omg all the things you crochet are so cute
Thank you so much😭❤️
i crochet the little turtles and it was great!!! this is really helpful!!! :)
I don’t know why, but when I saw your leggy froggy unstuffed it made me think of a cute book marker.❤
Omggg I love this idea! Yes!!❤️
I love this, I need more. Have a great trip and a blog would be great!

I have watched a couple videos and your voice is so pretty ☺️
Aww oh my gosh, thanks so much!!
What yarn do u use for the turtles? And the other chunky plushies❤❤ and also what size hook do u use
I love the triceratops pattern! Who is the designer/ where did you find the pattern?
You're amazing for managing to finish this
I could never
Aww thank you!!❤️
Always love your videos (especially the long ones). Enjoy your trip! I loved the Diablo (spicy pepperoni) pizza when I lived in northern Italy. Enjoy all the yummy food and don’t forget to not drink the water from the tap (bad chemicals)!

Aww thank you!! I would just try to reach out to your local shops and see if they'd be interested 💗
21:56 I also giggle every time you say “amigurumi” because you say “ah mee goo ree mee” and it’s “ah me goo roo mee” 😹
I for one would love to see your travel videos.
Aww thanks so much!! Hehe I’ll post it later🥰
I love all of these, omg! How on earth did you manage to put the eyes into the Dinos after they were closed up??
Hahaha thank you!! Hot glue ❤️
My wife and I used to own a candle making company.
We had a few stores ask us about doing wholesale.
We dropped our prices of the candles by $1 of what we sold candles at trade fairs.
That still made it profitable for us without killing our margins.
I couldn't imagine cutting handmade plushies that much.
Wholesale can be good, but don't cut yourself short.
She literally inspired me to crochet
Aww this makes me so happy😭❤️
Definitely trying to crochet the bees❤
I literally want to go to Italy SO bad you should totally vlog it
Aww thank you!! Yay I will :)❤️

Hi :) thanks so much!! I keep the pattern the same, I just use size 7 yarn and a 9mm hook! ❤️

I know some crocheters are okey with selling stuff you’ve made from their pattern, but I kind of feel bad about it or that it is not fair. What is your take on that? I know most you created your amigurumis down to the pattern. But I wanted to have an opinion from a fellow crocheter ❤ ty
Hello!! Excited for you to start on your amigurumi journey ❤️ Don't feel bad at all for selling the finished products if the pattern creator specified it was okay to do so! As a pattern designer myself, I always make my patterns knowing people will buy them to sell the finished products so it's seriously all good as long as the pattern designer is okay with it! ❤️
Omg I use the same app as you on my Ipad for all my patterns and my classes xD
Hi Genna, How do you hot glue the eyes and have them look secure. I tried it and the hot glued eyes popped out too much where the snapped ones are more into the plushie.
