What’s awesome about you is that you’re honest and you’re real and you’re a real artist I’m tired of fake people copying other peoples art and saying it’s really easy to do bless you
I'm 14 years old, and I love drawing small things. My mom always suggested I start making stickers or something like that. So, I considered it. But I didn't know how to start, plus it was also today when I started considering it. I'm HELLA SCARED, but once again, this would be a hobby and not a lifetime job, I tell myself. Thank you so much for making this video! It helped me with what and where I will buy my things. For now, I will start saving my money to afford the tools you've used. Thank you ❤
I really like how you simply talk about how you started your Etsy shop and kept it very simple and actually i was searching for how to make stickers, you explained it very well, including all the costs, thank you very much💗
Thank you for showing us how you got started. Most videos I’ve seen everything has to be perfect but starting an Etsy shop is such a learning curve and so many mistakes and learning opportunities are made. Loved the video! Keep up the great work!
Genuinely the most useful video I've watched so far, you show a bit of design, trial and error, the whole process and give a really handy breakdown of the cost of materials! Thank you! Also super cute designs 😍
I’ve been pressured into getting my first job, and while I want to go out and get something out in the world, I’ve been wanting to be creative and less consumed by time and stress. And since my mom runs an Etsy store too, I figured I’d make one too! Thank you :)
Thankyou so much for this insight. I'm in the same boat, contemplating starting a sticker business as well and seeing this video only helped me feel reassured about just getting started in this process .
I loved this so much! I’m in the process of compiling everything I need to make stickers 🙈 excited but also nervous hehe. your video def encouraged me 😬💛
Why didn't I find you the whole past year when trying to figure out on starting my own shop... I really appreciate you being honest on how much you spent on supplies and all... please do a more in depth if you haven't! Subscribed! I love your art!
I just wanna say that you are so pretty and cute, and then I realized that I look similar to you and it gave me so much confidence knowing that other people might see me the way I see you :) I hope this boosts your confidence too
I just recently decided to start a shop because i want to help my dad pay bills and well, to help pay my college tuition n stuff. But i dont have art style yet..? I have some ideas because i always search for stationery that goes with my aesthetic but never find any so i kind of have an idea of what i want to do... just dont know where to start bc i have nothing. Not even an ipad to draw designs in. Pls help ... what should i do first?
I would just start with a sketchbook! I still feel confused about my art style sometimes, but having a sketchbook helps me experiment with different styles. It can really help you figure out what you like to create. Also, if you don’t have an iPad, there are cheap drawing tablets that can be connected to computers through USB, or if you prefer traditional mediums, you could always create something and then scan it to get a digital file! I hope this helps!
@@juliebean74 I used to use MediBang on my phone. Procreate has a paid phone app too! If you have a smartphone with an intact screen you can just use your finger for a while on that. Maybe start with digital downloads ❤️
This is super helpful as a beginner sticker seller! I already had an Etsy store but no idea where to even begin with creating stickers, so hearing your story from beginning to end (including some mishaps you had along the way) was really insightful and encouraging! Thank you ❤
Thank you for this video Helen! As someone who really wants to make custom stickers, this video gives me good guidance and some motivation as well! What I take away most is how much you seem to truly enjoy it over the whole "business" aspect of it. That is what I am aiming for too! Just for the art to get out there! Thank you and good luck with your Etsy shop!
hi Helen, what a cute video. I just LOVE seeing the process, it makes me so curious about how things work out. Thanks for sharing this. What I would find interesting is how much you make out of it. Maybe you can share that, too if you havent already? Because thats the first video I am watching of ur channel ;)
Okay wow you’re really pretty❤️ now that that’s out the way i’m pretty sure we have the same printer so that’s refreshing to see. Also your art style *chefs kiss*
I want to open a sticker store too and I know that the first stickers will be purchased by my family and friends 😂 this videos inspire me to not be that afraid, but I still struggle. And what kind of stickers do you sell?
i’ve been thinking of starting an etsy shop for so months and months and after seeing a few videos i kinda do wanna try it…but i’ve got important exams this year so i’m thinking if i do all the research now once my exams are over in june i can start my shop! this video was really helpful! thank youuuu!
Hi! I'm moving in the next few weeks, but will be starting two etsy shops very soon! I loved your video and am excited for your journey! Can't wait to follow you on this adventure.
thank you so much for sharing your experience, Helen! It's really inspiring and the way you explained your process makes it seem so clear and simple (I'm sure it isn't though)!! Wishing you all the best for your shop ♥ ♥ ♥
I am also beginning to start my etsy sticker/planner shop and this was just the video i needed to motivate me further🥺 I was first worried of the start up cost I have to cover and I do not have any great background in illustration but I do enjoy seeing people make cute illustrations as well as the process it goes with. Right now, im focusing in finding my art style and producing stickers as soon as I can 🥹
Idk if this would've worked, but for the circle punch dilemma - maybe you could've used the circle punch as a guide and taken an X-acto knife and cut them while they're still held in the punch, that way it's like a stencil. I like your logo and I also like that you talk about your struggles. This was a super informative video and I really appreciate it!
Oh lady. Let me thank you so much! You’re the first one that I find on YT thai literally starts with nothing (I don’t have the printer but it’s okay). I wanted to know of it was doable with little money and no mashine - I really want a Cricut one day, but this is not the day ahah-. So thank you for giving me hope! [I’ll continue to sell things on Vinted just to reach a good amount of money and maybe to buy a used cricut as well]
This motivated me enough to actually replace the ink in my printer and grab out the cardstock I've been procrastinating printing on. XD I loved this video and watching your process. How long did it take before you started receiving orders? The stickers you made are so adorable! I am totally getting some when I *eventually* get my budget back on track! T_T
I laughed out loud to this comment because I too was motivated "enough to replace the ink in my printer and grab out the cardstock I've been procrastinating printing on" . 😄
I got inspired to start an Etsy shop watching RUclips videos too! I am launching mine on June 1 and it’s on a budget too. You have an awesome channel!!

The video gave me good insight about selling via etsy shop, and tips. Thanks for sharing!❤
Lovely! Great clip of you putting the Cricut in the car-- talk about cinematography!!
Nice! I'm jealous of the price of the cricut 😂 I got the pricey one and I've barely used it
ruclips.net/video/DYuItWIXUGI/видео.html
Cricuts are on sale for 169.00 at Michael's and online....
Same at first now i use it alot more making shadow boxes now but stickers are so easy to do!
I got a air2 at Walmart for $150. The following week it was at 199 glad I grabbed mine when I did!!
Yes, I'm late to the game but thank you so much for your encouraging and honest video about your learning journey! Truly helps!
Very comprehensive, informative, and extremely well put together. I appreciate RUclipsrs like you. Thank you!
I agree, she did such a good job! She just earned a new subscriber 😊

Exactly the type of video I was looking for! Very inspiring. ☺️
Thank you for the great video
Love your designs!
I tried to order stickers, but the shipping was more than my purchase. Will keep you in mind when I can afford it.
i’ve been thinking of starting an etsy shop for so months and months and after seeing a few videos i kinda do wanna try it…but i’ve got important exams this year so i’m thinking if i do all the research now once my exams are over in june i can start my shop! this video was really helpful! thank youuuu!

Oh that’s so nice I like to know where u create design
Well done!
im starting a sticker business to without a printer tho or cricit.btw love your hair
THIS IS SO CUTEEE. OH MY GOSH.
So interesting, thank you for sharing:))
Consider getting a Brother Scan N Cut.. you scan and cut the stickers (and anything else you can imagine) with ease.
Oh lady. Let me thank you so much! You’re the first one that I find on YT thai literally starts with nothing (I don’t have the printer but it’s okay).

I mean, if you're wanting to start a sticker shop or any shop, really, you should at least have a printer, lol. It will be your number one used item.
Well organized, explained, and edited video!
Love your vids!
Love your video! Such a great way to explain things. Can you share how you turned your drawing into the colorful digital image? Thanks!
Hi Helen
I like how your video showed a timelapse or animated effect. Could you tell me how you did that? Great job by the way!
Wonderful!!!
This motivated me enough to actually replace the ink in my printer and grab out the cardstock I've been procrastinating printing on. XD I loved this video and watching your process.
