STUDIO VLOG | Day In The Life Making XXL Scrunchies | How Dad Helps My Small Business Run ❤ Sewing ✨
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 авг 2024
- I’m back with a little day in the life of sewing XXL Scrunchies for a living 😉 I just wanted to share what a very realistic Saturday of ONLY sewing scrunchies looks like. I try to prioritize at least one day a week to only sewing. My other days are filled with packaging, social media creation, draining, customer service, purchasing supplies, little things that run the business like taxes, organizing, cleaning, & so much more. I’ll be sharing more vlogs about all of these things if you liked this video!
Lots of love goes into every single scrunchie & I hope you enjoy ❤️ No matter how big XXL will get-we will always first and foremost be a family business! My dad says hi!! Thank-you for supporting us!
p.s. if you watch closely you will see a sneak peek of one of the new colours from our upcoming St Patrick's day collection! 🍀🍀🍀
WITH LOVE, always
Tina

Have the best day, remember consistency is KEY... YOU GOT THIS. 🔑
Stay safe XXL FAM.

I once sewn masks with fabric which has FLYING FIBERS ALL AROUND THE PLACE and I got an allergic reaction. So before I finished the whole batch I wore a mask.
You make me want to finally start my business. Just having second thoughts since I'm still thinking of working a full time job 😭
Thank-you for sharing this! I realized how important it is to stay safe while sewing and inhaling those fibres could really affect me long term. ALSO YOU WANT TO FINALLY START YOUR BUSINESS! I started off my mural career while still working full time at a marketing agency. I would come home at 6pm and work on my mural artwork from 7pm-2am and then work my 9-5 job and pursue my murals more on the weekend. So long story short, I started my business while still working full time elsewhere and then I knew it was time to fully focus on my business as I grew it! YOU GOT THIS LOVE!! One step at a time, you could start a small aspect of it daily and before you know it you will wonder, "why didn't I start this sooner?"
@@xxlscrunchie 😭 didn't know you would share your experience ❤️ and even reply to me... I appreciate this so much!
Pre-pandemic, I had a full time and freelance like you. Eventually, I decided to focus on my freelance but THE PANDEMIC WAS ANNOUNCED right after I gave my resignation. Now I'm having opportunities again both in full time and freelance/business but I'm so torn whether I would want to just do ONE thing this time.
Anyways, thanks so much ❤️❤️❤️
@@lovea5651 You are so kind!! I totally feel you. I was so torn, before I had so many freelance clients, I was working at an art gallery AND also as a social media manager in-office for another brand. I was doing so many things but a few years later. tons of podcasts later, and reading about inspiring success stories I found my true success came from focusing on only one thing. My mindset is if I focus on the ONE thing (right now it would be XXL SCRUNCHIES) then I decrease my risk of failure and ramp up my chances of success. A phrase that has been stuck in my mind from listening to Rob Dial's mindset mentor podcasts that "if you try really hard and are training, for one thing, you are going to be really good at that one thing!"
Wishing you nothing but the best, and stay safe out there Love! Either way, I know you will do what you need to do until you get to do what you want to do ❤️❤️
@@xxlscrunchie ❤️❤️❤️ thank you so much! All the best for you too.
Thanks I've been totally inspired 😍 truly.
When I watch your mam and dad helping I think to myself this is why this girl is successful. Being surrounded in positive energy is a great motivator and this is in abundance in this family❤️🇬🇧
Love that so much! Thank you so much for your kind words 💕
I just found your videos and I can't stop watching them. You're attitude, your genuine kindness, and your family, mom, and dad helping out melt my heart. This is what makes anyone successful, the love and support behind what you're working for. Would you ever be willing to teach a class on how to make these, size information and supplies, etc.? Thanks again for all the information you provide. God bless you and your family.
Hi Julie! Thank you so much for your kind words, they mean so much to us at XXL 🥰They is such a cool idea, i hadn't thought about that before! I will add it to our ideas for the future and do our best to get that done! Thanks!💕
I haven't been following you for very long. But I must tell you...I use your story as a motivation for myself very often.
I keep reminding myself that you grew your business and have 11 people working with you and grew to the size where you need a warehouse from focusing on one item...a scrunchie (I know there is clothing too, but scrunchies seem to be central).
Sometimes it's so easy to minimize what we do, and I am from a place where people look down on creative work so much. But you inspire me. Thank you for sharing. And your family's support is everything
This is so amazing!! I appreciate you taking the time to leave this comment- words like this give us so much inspiration and determination to do our best a million times over!! I really love what i do and hearing comments like this make it so worth it!!
That intro music gets me so excited to watch the video and excited to start our own small business with my sisters!
So cute! I love that!! 🥰
Love to see your parents in the video. They are awesome! So wonderful to see the inclusion of family and friends in the business. Coming from a Hispanic heritage, I understand the importance of unity in the family. You are doing a wonderful job. So happy for you. I'm working with embroidery.
So lovely that you value your family and relationships as well. Thank you so much and all the best to you!
I'm trying to start a small business in AUS and came across your videos today and felt like I needed to comment just to let you know how inspiring you are. You are so transparent with what you do and are honest, kind and respectful where you can't share specific information. Like dude not sure if its cause we have the same name (ok it might be a factor) but I really vibe with your energy! Thank you for making such great content and being YOU. Your personality feels soooo authentic making it super refreshing to watch, I believe and hope that you are gonna be even more successful than you already are!
LOL! This comment made me so happy and giggle! Hi Tina Nguyen! Thank you so much for all your kind words, they put a smile on my face 💕Sending you lots of love!🥰
Watching ur videos really inspires me a lot. And watching your dad putting more love to each scrunchies is the best. Dads really are the best. Salute!
DADS ARE MVP! Thank you for watching and supporting 😊
I love that you are including your parents into your adventure. I just found you today. I don’t have long hair anymore but will be ordering a sweatshirt next week and maybe some stickers. I love the line art designs. I ❤️ the ‘X’.
Amazing, we are so happy you're here. Thank you for wanting to support. Lots of love 💕
It’s so amazing your parents help you. It’s beautiful to see.❤️
It really is! I couldn't do this without them!
I admire how supportive your parents are of your business. This has the potential to be a wonderful labor of love. From starting a small business in your basement to having your own studio, you are such an inspiration to all small business owners who believe that nothing is impossible. Keep it up, and your work will always be appreciated.
Thank you so much!
Never thought my heart would feel so warm after watching a scrunchie vid.
You are doing an amazing job! And good job dad!!
You are so kind! We are so happy to hear you enjoyed it 😊
I watch your vlogs when I'm working on things for my little shop. Your creativity and production helps me be motivated to keep going. Thanks for sharing all the things you do.
I love to hear comments like this! Thank you so much for letting me know! I wish you nothing but the best with your business!🥰
My only thought after watching your videos which I recently found is I wanna start a giant scrunchie business 🥰
You should do it!! I always tell people to JUST START!! Best of luck to you! ❤️
Hii! I started a scrunchie business for XL scrunchies too only because I saw how pure your business was. Sadly I don’t have a dad or a grandparent to help but I’ve got my fashion designer mum to help me out :) I’ve already sold 2 so thank you so much!
I love seeing your family involved! The support you have is amazing!
Thank you!! I seriously couldn't do this without them ❤️
I make scrunchies too. I use a serger machine for everything but closing the small opening. I find it has a much more finished look, cuts down on threads sticking out everywhere, etc. I was watching your videos and was surprised to see you don't use a serger.
I love these kind of videos. It gives me motivation. I have my own little bussiness (crochet) and sometimes it’s hard to keep going. Blessings ❤️
Thank you for watching! Don't give up- somewhere out there are people that are looking for exactly what you are making 😊
Just amazing to watch you do so much hardwork putting all ur heart and mind to grow, nice video! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Just found your channel recently! So inspiring. I just started my small business and your story is very encouraging. Thank you for sharing your journey !
That's awesome! Thanks for watching!😍
Your such an inspiration. Thank you for your videos.
Thank you for watching! 🥰
I love seeing your dad help you. So sweet!
Love him so much. I couldn't do this with out him!❤️
I have a small leather business that I started 3 months ago and it’s super inspiring watching you! Hope to get to your level someday. Keep up the great work!
Sounds so cool! Thanks for watching and for your kind words 😊
@@xxlscrunchie 💗💗
@@xxlscrunchie wglclmpm🤓🤓
Thank you!! I am a creator/seller, I crochet and I love watching videos while I make my beanies. Didn't know about fabric dust, glad someone was looking out for you!!
SERIOUSLY!! I love this community so much, so many helpful tips 😍
These are so so satisfying to watch, to see somebody’s passion it’s so inspiring. I love it 😊❤️
I love it when you still involve in making the scrunchie eventhough your business is so big now. You always insprires me, Tina.
Thank you so much for your support! 🥰❤️
There is elastiglue which is used in factories.. You should try it.. If you already do..then ignore it🙂❤️
We have tried it before actually! We found after some trials that triple knotting the elastics was the best and most secure 🥰 Thank you so much for the suggestion!
I always watch your videos because they keep me motivated to work on my craft, I actually watch your videos while I’m working keep going you’re awesome
That is awesome! Thank you so much for watching!💕
I really love watching your vlog...now I look back your first vlog...while watching I feel like I should start my own small business too..really love watching you...keep safe and God bless you and your family always💕
You should! If it is what you want to do! I will always encourage people to follow their dreams!💕

hello XXL fam...I am truly inspired by all your videos that made me decide to start my scrunchie business. I am literally nervous and I doubted myself so much if this thing will work but indeed life is a series of mistakes, changes, and chances. 2022 is the start of my breakthrough! CLAIMING IT 🥰 Continue inspiring many!!
Incredible family .
That is such a beautiful having family willing to help you!!!
Thank you! They really are the best ❤️

U r my inspiration ❤️ I started watching your videos , and even I started a small business but now m not getting orders 😩
I love your videos per usual!!! they really inspire me with my own hair and product business. the studio is so nice to see, I love how organized it is. I want to send you a couple of bottles of my hair growth oil.
Hi Dominique! Thanks for watching!! ❤️
Very inspiring. God bless your family and your business. 💗
Loved this. Love how your parents are involved too 🥰 . You should consider getting a HEPA Air Purifier so it will minimize some of the fabric dust in the room that settles(even if you still have to wear your mask while sewing) 💕
Great idea!! Thank you so much for recommending!! 💕💕💕
I'm so obsessed with your videos!!!
Please make a tutorial on how you measure and do scrunchies 🥺❤ been watching all your videos even 3yrs ago💝 I am sooooo inlove with your business!🙈
Hi! Thank you! It took a lot of trial and error for us to determine the exact measurement for our scrunchies. At this time we respectfully do not share that information. With some trial and error of you own, i'm sure you will be able to find the perfect dimensions for you!! ❤️🥰
@@xxlscrunchie thank youuuuu🥺❤❤❤
I'm obsessed with your channel and videos!! I've been wanting to start my own sustainable accessories business too and you really help to demystify the whole process so thank you!!

Hi Tina
Thank you! I got inspired by watching some of your videos. I have a product test on 8 July where I showcase my hair scrunches and faux leather bows to the public and among them are the real critics that will be asking me the hard questions😀 I am nervous and excited at the same time! All the best with your continued success
Hi I saw you on You-Tube. Can't wait to get my order. Thank You for putting so much LOVE into your products. You made it !!! Congratulations.😃
So excited for you to get your order and start your own collection❤️

So happy to hear you like them! Thanks so much for watching! 😘
Hi Tina. Your scrunchies is beautiful 💞💞 btw i got something else to make ur business more active. You can try make Headband. Then you can make combo set for this. I could not afford to buy ur scrunchies bcause i from another country. But i love to see all ur videos and i just can support you by view all ur videos. All the best Tina 🌼💞
I keep repeating her packing order video.. you know why.. coz i love it ! very satisfying beautiful.. variant scrunchies. damn
ahh love these type vlogs that you do. i have a planner sticker shop, but you make me want to start creating scrunches 😍.
Oh boy, we love stickers!! What is your business name?? Would love to check it out!
@@xxlscrunchie it’s Moonlight Paper Co.! moonlightpaper.co is the website.
You inspire me so much and I want to start a business like you! Except I'm worried if I fail then I'll have nothing. But I'll keep working until I become just like you!😄😊
That's right! Just make a few small changes and steps until you are comfortable and then take another step towards your goal! I have faith in and am rooting for you 🥰
You and your family are awesome
You are so kind. Thank you!❤️
Can you do a video where you package orders! Your videos are so relaxing❤️❤️
It's on our list! We will try to record the content soon 😊
Your videos really inspires me
I am so happy for you now that you expanded your business.. I feel unlucky when it comes to building my own small business. I have tried and tried but always failed.. 😩😩..
Love you 💓 God bless you you and your family I also like start scrunchies business but no money to start
Hi Tina, Im Vietnamese too. Glad to see your video, it makes me feel inspired. I want to start a fashion shop by myself, form fabric, sewing to sell. Good me luck Tina.
Hi! You should start it! You'll never know if you don't try! Good luck!! 😊
Live watching these! I make bikinis! We matched scrunchies in 19' and We still love them plus added matching masks too!
Love that idea! We love matching sets- we will check out your socials 😍
😀 I was making scrunchies yeeeears ago for myself. They weren't as large back then. I love the fun size you make. I'm happy to see they're back again and that you're doing so well. Ride this wave as long as possible ❣️ Be sure to set up your money funds for your future while you have a good opportunity. They did go out of style for a while so I'm glad you have the clothing line as well.
I do have a question or two because I'm going to put some in a shop in town. Have you ever had any problem with any returns? Do you worry about edges fraying inside from use? And also what's your favorite fabrics, your least favorite and why? Congratulations on your doing so well and your family loving to help you ❣️ 🎉😃💕
Hi! Congrats on your shop!
We don't have any issues at all with returns and we haven't had any notes or comments regarding the fraying. My favourite fabric is probably our thick velvets or corduroy's as they are just fun to make and are so full and XXL! My least favourite would be satins and that's only due to the fact of the strings that get everywhere when we make them lol!😂💕
Absolutely awesome love it all💗💗
love your vlogs
Thank you so much! I appreciate you watching 🥰
Hi tina, lots of love from the philippines 😊
Hello! 😊❤️
that hair tip at the end - literally about to order =)
OMG PLEASE DO!!! I am actually obsessed! 😍
@@xxlscrunchie 🥰
Hoping to start over again. I graduated fashion design and was a freelancer since 2008. I was making bridal gowns and formal dresses before but i let go of my career for my bf that time because i helped him with his work and supported him. Then 14yrs later he just cheated on me and had a baby with his colleague. I got depressed for a year and then soon had cancer. I am cancer free now (yey!) but i don't know how to start again tbh.. 😢 The economy here in my country is not good now and because there's a lot of goodies from China now which is a lot lot cheaper so i don't know what product to sell. I've been sewing since college. I make my own patterns and cut them as well. I was thingking to sell something like this first before i go big. My mom used to sell hair accessories when we were young. She's the reason why i took up fashion. Before i grew up wearing dresses she made for us when we were kids and wanted to do that for her as well in return. I did a few gowns and dress for her 😊 it's just whenever i accept project(custom made) before people here can't afford my price and i end up lowering my fee as in very low.. 😔 I got burnt out.
Wow! It sounds like you have some amazing talents. I am so sorry to hear everything you have been through and SO HAPPY to hear you are healthy 🥰 I hope you can share your talent with the world, please keep your head up and keep pushing through💕
@@xxlscrunchie thank you 🙏 i wish you great success with your business 😊
Am so proud of you 😢 your amazing 🤍
Your packaging is so nice
Thank you! We have tested out so many but i'm so happy with what we have and whats coming up!! ❤️
Can you make a little clip on how you do the tubing part? That would be super helpful and appreciated! Thank you!
Hi! We have a few different clips in our other videos! Hope you can get it figured out 😊
You are so hard working 💖
Before you turn your scrunchies inside out, you should mark a long strip of the elastic however long you make it. Then slide it through the scrunchie tube, tie it and turn it inside out. It will be quicker and easier.
Aww this is wonderful ❤
Thank you ❤️❤️
@@xxlscrunchie your very welcome we own a family business very very small we have greenhouses we work hard it's just me my husband and my two kids well one is 20 my son my daughter is 15 but it's hard and I am so very blessed 🙌 to have my children to help us because I can always count on them to help me they can always count on us to be there for them. So it hit my heart seeing your dad and mother helping you ❤ it reminded me of us working 💪 I hope you fulfill all your dreams and more!
Loved this! ❤️
