It makes me so happy to see my order being packaged in a video!! I was smiling so big that it hurt! I absolutely LOVE your Bumblebutt character and can't wait to get them in the post! Simply adorable! Thank you so much for making such adorable and loveable characters and sharing your vlogs and what you do!! All of your videos and products have been and continue to be a gigantic joy!
Oh my goodness, thank you so so much Jessica 🤩 Your support means the world, I hope the package arrives to you safely heheh it was suchhhh a cute order I loved packing it heheh ~ YOU DA BEST THANK YOU SO MUCH! 🌸
If the studio building is over 20 years old, then the “right of lights” applies - meaning the studio landlord is entitled to forbid any construction or other obstruction that would deprive them of that illumination. Neighbours can't build anything that obstructs the light without permission. But I’m not sure of this applies in Scotland… these construction usually take ages and hopefully will give you time to look for another when you cross that bridge. Good luck!
Ooo, I just had an idea. Spring and Summer is when art markets and conventions run. Maybe that's what you can do during the slow season? Hit some art markets? You've got an amazing stock and it's always fun interacting with the community! I think some large cut outs of Bumblebutt and Pudding would really draw people's eyes!
We have actually thought of this, i love the idea of going back to conventions, but we have so much on this year I don't actually know if I have the energy 🤣 It always takes so much energy to do markets, and you have tohave all the inventory to hand, Id love to do some stalls though I need to look into it hehe
@@KatnippStudios True! It is a lot of energy and a lot to juggle! Maybe you can start with small local ones where you don't have to worry about driving far or booking hotels and just have fun/see what happens. 😊
Reading through your subscribers’ comments, everyone is so happy and supportive, as well as, complimentary and kind. Way to go, fellow subscribers!👏🤩 🌸 It’s all down to the sharing of your knowledge, your days and your life, plus, your thankfulness and interaction with all of us, Catherine.👏🥰🌸✨Awesome job! Much appreciated! 💗🏆
👏🤩 🌸 you guysare AMAZING heheh ei love you guys so so much! Thank you so so much for always commenting, liking and supporting too! I love seeing you in the comments heheh YOU DA BEST
Do you do a “back to school” range Catherine? Ex- retail designer here, we used to do a lot for that market and although the sales window is small, it was a HUGE area for fun study stickers/labels/pencil cases etc…..ps keep up the hard work!
I have noticed your make-up and a bit of healthiness in your look. Both, are looking beautiful on you. Your look reflects your growth in happiness life/business.
Seeing the older style pancake sticker reminded me of how much I like the unique style of the Katnipp stickers you have and that I wish there were more variations of that character. I think I am going to join your patron. I enjoy watching your videos so so much. Your kindness just makes me feel comfortable ❤
You could get smart lights or smart light switches and then you can say alexa, google, or whatever device you use to turn on all your studio lights on at once! We use them in our house alot and its nice to come home with arms full of groceries and be like, "Alexa, I'm home." and all the lights turn on!! Just an idea
You are fantastic! Whenever I am feeling overwhelmed by starting my business, I watch your vlog and I am back in the zone! I am super excited to be moving into my first studio next month and it is all thanks to your inspiration!! ❤🐾
@@lcojom36 Thank you so much! It is terrifying but I am so thankful to be doing this in a time where I am able to look for wonderful inspiration like this!
not sure about UK law or if it's aposibility as you rent the studio. But here you should be able to object about the build in general or at least parts of it. same that ther might be laws about natural lighting etc. Most of all, I woudn't wait since there isn't a garentee of reduced rent etc. Landlords often don't say anything to avoid work
Hello! Hope all is well in the Katnipp studios ❤ I was wondering if you ever thought about doing a sleeveless shirt option just like you do with you tees and sweatshirts. It gets mighty hot in some parts of the IS during the summer and that may be an option for sales during the summer months when things are slow.
I love your art so much! I just wanted to say that you were always beautiful and amazing beforehand and I can notice the weightloss. It's giving me hope for when I possibly do the same surgery. You look amazing. ❤️
Wait... you saw cherry blossoms in Florida?! I lived in FL most of my life and have never come across a cherry blossom tree there before because it's too hot for them to grow there. I live in WA and see them every Spring now. Where did you see them? I'm very curious! 🌸
OoOoOoOoh yes cherry blossoms! 🌸 one of my favorites!! I collect this theme from other artist. My collection is slowly growing. Can't wait to get my hands on one of these!
Have you thought about getting smart plugs and set them up with Google assist, you can then just tell Google or whichever app you pref to turn on the lights and they will just all turn on or off together. You can name them if you want to be able to turn them on individually.
the love the cherry blossom sketches I'm sooo excited!!! they look so cute! your packaging is always so cute I feel like when it arrives it feels like a gift.. and I totally collect the branding and hang the thank you cards on my wall. also the link to the printer takes you to the iPad mini link.
By the way, you look amazing! How are you feeling after your surgery? Don’t really get to see Dean and how far he’s come after his surgery, how is he feeling?
How I enjoy your Vlogs .. they're so relaxing I can't explain 😍😍 I truly hope that new building doesn't impact the light in your space 😢 you and Dean have done so fantastic I need to over to your other channel now and catch up .. I did watch the whole video I just don't wanna leave an essay 🤣🤣🤣 always an essay
There r plugs u can get which run on a app on ur phone so u cant lose ur remote (also have u thought about using glacier bags instead of cello for ur stickers there more eco friendly)
hopefully you get a discount on the studio with the window being blocked, you would think you would or if you have to move you find a place with better lighting
Oh noooo! After all the studio moves that you have done, now they are going to do that to the building next to you window 😱 I don't understand how destiny's playing so much with the perfect studio for you, but I hope that everything goes well ❤️
Goodness that building just keeps having things come up and you having to move for one reason or another But I hope it isn't for a WHILE that they start because I bet that'll be a headache 😓 Question! How do you draw comfortably on the couch without your back/neck hurting or the ipad feeling weird to hold?
I love those boxes! I need to find a supplier in the US that can do them. I have one but the cardboard is thick and clunky, but they're made of recycled materials. Your boxes look so nice and professional!
Regarding the upcoming construction and your worries about how that will affect your work: You should see if the council has a grant program for businesses that will be negatively impacted by the construction. It is likely that you are not going to be the only one it causes problems for, so perhaps you and a few other companies could petition them to put something together to help make up for the potential losses that it will cause.
I just love watching your vlogs while working :) and oh no I really hope that building doesn’t block the view! Idk what type of building is it but don’t they have to have a meeting on how that building might negatively impact the community? Or maybe my brain is making it up lols
I always jump on your videos whenever I see an update. You bring a bit of sunshine into my day 😊. Also, isn’t Beat Saber so much fun!! I also do Supernatural… which I was going to recommend to you but I forgot that it’s only in North America 😢. These virtual reality workouts are so much fun!!
That really stinks about the studio. I wonder if you could get sun lights (the windows that are on roofs) to bring in more light. My apartment has them and it’s so noticeable when it snows because my desk area is under one and it gets so dark when it’s covered!
I love these videos and the tips that you give along the way! Thanks! Also, I don't think anyone noticed the lipstick smudge until you pointed it out! 😅
Do you have someone print your sheet stickers (with the headers) : i thought I saw you unpacking them the other video..why would you not print them yourself at your studio ?? Just curiousl
This is probably a super stupid question, but since I don't make videos I have no idea loll -- but like, when you walk into your studio and turn the lights on, do you have a camera already set up in there that you can turn on when you walk in? Or do you pre-setup a shot for aesthetic purposes? I'm curious how this is done!
I normally set my camera up the day before! Orrr I set up the shot while I’ve literally just stepped through the door and still have all my bags and coat on lol 😂❤
I would have a word with the building owners that you are in and say you found out about the new building, worried as the rooms are dark anyway and that window being blocked will make it even dark and thays why you moved to this room in the first place. Maybe the buildings owner you are in coudl get some compensation from the council etc and pass that onto who it affects like you
Better address the lighting problem before the building work starts. Maybe plans can still be altered or there’s a different solution. 🙏 From my personal experience probably no one will proactively contact you but maybe it’s different in your building 🤞
Hello catherine! I saw you pour hot coffee in your plastic starbucks cup, for health reasons i would not recommend doing it, they leach dangerous chemicals when in contact with hot liquid unfortunately😢

Hi Catherine LOVED the video just want to ask where you got your Daisy bag from love it so cute in the beginning of the video 😊
I want to know this too!
You’re so disciplined with dropping your stuff at the front door! I’m guilty of keeping the coat on for like half an hour before noticing 😅
heheheh ive sat in my coat for about a hour before when I started answering my emails heheh 🌸✨

It has gone very quiet for me too, not a huge seller but Christmas was manic and its slow now but i use it as extra money so not a massive issue
I love these videos and the tips that you give along the way! Thanks! Also, I don't think anyone noticed the lipstick smudge until you pointed it out! 😅
Hiya 🤗 I think you might end up having to move again which is a shame. Always enjoy your studio vlogs. Love your spring sketches 🥰 xx
Your coasters look cute❤
Do you have someone print your sheet stickers (with the headers) : i thought I saw you unpacking them the other video..why would you not print them yourself at your studio ?? Just curiousl
Hi. The link to the printer seems to send me to the iPad mini link. I’m not sure if its just me though. Are you able to check it? Thanks.
I love your stickers, they are all over my planner 🤩 An I love how fast you ship orders (compared to other shops) 👍
Oh my goodness thank you so so much! hehh I have Mike and Dean to thank for that for helping me fulfil them quickly heheh 🌸✨

Have you thought about doing your business from home
Yes but legally we are not allowed by our mortgage ❤

Mr. New Not-Henry needs some googly eyes :)

i love how companies often buy a Henry the hoover but as a hoover, they're pretty shitty haha
Lol 😂 this actually used to be our hoover from home but it’s so annoying to store ❤
thet should partly refund you for those enveloppes if you paid for a sticky seal one
🥲🥲 right?! We should reach out to then I bet they know that batch has issues I can’t imagine me being the only one to have the issues
The printer link needs to be fixed. It goes to an IPad.
Have you created a video or have any plans to talk about the pros and cons of Instagram VS Tiktok and which has been more beneficial to your business?
Hello catherine! I saw you pour hot coffee in your plastic starbucks cup, for health reasons i would not recommend doing it, they leach dangerous chemicals when in contact with hot liquid unfortunately😢
you mean micoplastics?
It was a iced latte but the top was warm espresso! I have just bought some glass ones though funnily enough 😂❤
