I used to do Stampin’ Up and if you get a roller, and roll your ink onto the stamp, it should give you better stamped image. Because your surface area is so big, you need to get the ink evenly distributed on the stamp. Also if you don’t layer your boxes, only do one at a time on a hard surface, it will help make your image cleaner. I think single sided is good! It looks amazing! Don’t worry about the steam! It could just be the tote material. The tiny duckies make me think of your oil painting. Hope you have an awesome weekend!
Single sided on the tote ♥ Additionally the smoking you saw was more than likely steam. There is probably a tiny bit of moisture in the bag. I get that all the time when pressing shirts, unless it smells like burnt plastic or smoke, it shouldn't be anything to worry about.
Something that may help with the stamping is to stamp them one at a time without a stack. That way there isn't give from the boxes under the one you're doing. I find anything being stamped directly on the table works way better. I also think single sided totes are best. I don't think I would ever care about it having a second side. Also, got my order in Tuesday and my friend loved her stuff as well!
just came to the comments to say this about the stamping 💕the lower the stack, the better the results were because she didn't have to fight against all the give of the stacked boxes.
I stamp my boxes with that same kind of stamp! And I’ve noticed that the best way to do it is to ink the stamp pretty well and then stamp super fast. Rather than doing it slow and apply pressure, you do it fast and strong. The downside is that you don’t always stamp it in the middle…
For the stamp, I would definitely try to lay the individual box on the table rather than stamp while stacked. May still not be perfect but it's what I find works better! The steam on the tote bags could be moisture in the fabric since it was just in the closet under the stairs. Single sided design and inner pocket design is perfectly fine! I've been selling sublimation totes for years (now dabbling in dtf) and it's never been a problem for me or my customers
34:02 those carrots are pretty easy to make if you need more 'off season'. just wrap twine around an upside down cone and then fill the hole at the end with leaves.
You might want to stamp the box right on the hard table top, instead of on a pile of boxes, to get a better stamp. Also picking up the ink pad and tapping it on the stamp instead of putting the stamp onto the pad, you will get better coverage on the stamp.
Hi Baylee!!! Have you thought about making your own scrapbook paper backgrounds? That way the could be exactly what you want 😊. Just something I thought of while watching you show the papers you got. Love your channel ❤
That seasonal decor tho!!! 💐 Can't wait to see how it comes together and it looks like you'd be able to get away with the 11 pieces. Best of luck getting that 2nd gift card to work 🩷 your cottage core vibes are coming together nicely
Something that may help. .. so I stamp all of the boxes I use for orders and a rubber hammer is great for getting even pressure. Made the handle a bit wider on the stamp itself so you can hammer the stamp both in the ink pad and then on the box. Also use isopropyl alcohol to keep the ink pad moist and juicy! lol
I live in Australia so shipping and the $$ change is something I have think about when buying from your shop. BUT the bag is something I really love so going buy one when you start selling them. Can’t wait!!
Oh I am so excited at the idea of those big tote bags with a zipper pouch! I’m a costume design university student and big tote bags like that are a lifesaver for art supplies and my sewing stuff, I’d love a luna moth one 💕
The test tote is so cuteee I’m definitely setting a reminder for that store update when it’s announced. Kinda prefer single sided over double but that’s just my preference :)
16:36 I cannot get over how cute the BunBun transfer looks on the pocket! 🥹🥹🥹 It would look adorable on a make-up bag/pencil case/ pouch type thing too 🥰
I think the DTF transferred to the top like that is nearly perfect. You don’t want the gusset fold to be creased all the time or it will wear out much quicker. I didn’t do heat press on totes, but I did iron on before.
Yes to all sketches I started that route when I learned the Caio weren’t available in all colours I’m nowhere near finished but the aesthetic is good ❤️❤️😂😂😂
Hey Baylee, I am using stamps on my boxes and what I do, I usually stamp the box one by one, I find that the more stacked I have, the less pressure and ink it has. So I usually have a pile on the side, while stamping one at a time.
Got my first order!!!! Loved everything 😍 have been watching your channel for a while and finally decided to order a bunch of stuff. It arrived on my B-Day and made the day extra special! Thank you very much ❤
Hey, for your stamping remover the handler and use a stamp glider tool on the wooden mount. Easier on your arms and better impression. Too bad you could not use a stamp platform that would allow you to go back in for bad impressions with exact placement. Also, you should check out Lawn Fawn papers, I think they have several to match your vibe :)
The holiday list on their website does show some regional holidays, including Natal day. But pretty much every province has a holiday that day. There are a few others though that are specific to Quebec or Yukon that other provinces don't have off.
Loving your art and vlog. I’ve been watching your channel for over a year. Placed an order for a bunch of your bags. Don’t worry. I’ll be gifting them to friends and family.
I haven't finished the video but wanted to say I've been wanting you to wholesale for ages - purely because it would make your products more accessible to countries like Australia. I haven't been able to order anything because of the shipping cost and I try to buy locally... but I would totally purchase your products wholesale so I can get them to more fans here :)
Yay new Baylee video! Also baylee if the card doesn't get fixed the employer can imput the card number and put in a date in the future as the expire date we did that at my store all the time when gift cards wouldn't swipe :)
@@BayleeJae Did they not manually type in the number? Because this stuff happens all the time at Michaels with our gift cards. (Usually its a very specific gift card that has this issue... the cursed red ones) But sometimes the swipe strip magintazation just goes out on the cards. Unless it says "INVALID CARD" Or just plain declines it's a pretty easy fix for swipe Errors. (BTW I work at a Michaels in Canada) Also BTW you can return the stuff and buy it back on the gift card. People do that all the time.
I wonder if you could buy a small drill press and repurpose it to fit the stamp insted of a hand drill. So then it makes it faster to stamp and so easier on the hands. I see Amazon has a lot of small ones that could work. Just an idea
You could take off the handle on stamp and swap it for more of a block, that way you could either use a rubber mallet or can apply pressure more evenly :)
Just seeing the tote bag and thought about you doing your logo/adatar in the same size as those strawberries with something like that stamp around your avatar and your name at the bottom.
Edited after seeing the other comments. Sorry for the duplicate suggestion! Baylee, I think you'll have better luck with the stamp if you don't have it on a stack of boxes. It will stamp more even if the space under it is firm.
Baylee there’s another artist on RUclips. Her name is Amy from Winterwoods studio. She just had a serious issue with kopek sketch markers with the lids, not closing properly on one of the ends. She bought a whole heap and they were about a year old and they had been put away in a Ziploc bag in it temperature controlled room, and some of them had either completely dried out or one and had dried out, I think you should definitely check that this hasn’t been an issue for you to because she has well over 150+ dollars in unusable markers.
Don't know if anyone else mentioned this, but maybe stamping on a large lable? It would be a lot flatter. & I it comes in a roll... maybe faster to stamp.
Hello, just came back to add a thought to my previous comment, but it looks like the comment disappeared. Just a few thoughts from a crafter with way too many craft supplies and ink pads. You may want to try the Archival Jumbo Ink pad in Vermilion by Ranger Ink. That may appear on the dark pink spectrum when stamped on a Kraft colored box. Also you may want to look at the Tim Holtz Oxide Ink pad Re-inkers (also made by Ranger) to ink a custom made Iarge ink pad. His Oxide Ink pads are an opaque ink that would work on your boxes. There are a range of pink shades that may work for what you want or you could mix re-inkers to create a custom color. You can also order direct from Ranger if they will ship to Canada. Also if you want a softer ink pad, look for one that is a felt ink pad versus a foam pad.
I forgot to add that the only downside I can think of to the Oxide ink is that it is not a waterproof ink whereas the archival ink is. But that should be a minor concern since its not very lilkely that the inside of the boxes would get wet.
Would it maybe be easier to dip a roller in paint and to role the roller over the stamp to coat it? It might be easier on your arms and hands since you probably wouldn't have to press as hard when stamping
I’d put it on my website under clearance or overstock , for those who live on a strict budget but love cute artistic items, that may be a better idea for you, like you said that would keep it from getting sold by other people ..That’s what i suggest. Love your art …
The duckie planner pads & Christmas washi will definitely get marked down to clearance eventually. The same thought crossed my mind, which is why I decided against wholesale for those items.
You need to ask yourself if the time Christian took away from the embroidery room to do the stamping would be better spent producing more sweatshirts for sale?
A little felted or crocheted mouse would be so cute sticking out of the tea pot bird house. Also, It’s kind of a good thing that you didn’t use both of the gift cards for your Michael’s purchases, because a lot of what you got can be tax write offs if you are using them for product photography. Save the gift card for more decor purchases that aren’t business related.
Ok…what I’m hearing is…I need to order more bags. GOT IT! 🤣 I’ve been wanting to give everyone some of your bags for Christmas and such….just have to figure out how many I need. Need to do that before whole sale thing. So you get all the money!
The shipping label goes on the outside, so there's not enough room to stamp. The outside already looks good because of the custom tape. The inside is what could use a little extra colour.
OK IDEAAA the stamps look super cute, what if you took off the handle and used something like a press to put pressure on it - like those button-making machines or even something like the heat press but with no heat?? maybe that idea should stay in a brain haha but i just had to share the ✨vision✨

I think single sided for the tote bags. I LOVE the bunny on the inside pocket! It’s so cute!

I was going to say the same thing, it's steam from the moisture in the fabric.

How cute would pencil bags/make up bags with the flower crown bunny be??
Was waiting for this notification while laying in bed sick. Happy Friday everyone!
Me: having a rough few days… Baylee: posts… Me: instant serotonin boost ❤

I feel the same way you do during easter but for halloween, its my time to buy all the home decor!
Baylee, I haven’t been here in a bit and wanted to say that you look beautiful! It was so sweet when hubby walked up and kissed you. Hubby goals
For the totes, maybe you could have a design on the front, a little extra design on the pocket, and the Baylee Jae wreath on the back.
You both are so precious💗💗
I love the tote idea! Especially love the black canvas, can’t wait to see the designs you come up with!
In response to DTF bag, I think one sided is good enough. It looks so cute!
Thank you for the video Baylee, you are such an inspiration ☺☺☺
garlands look really pretty and bunny stuff is so cute, transfers on bag is so kool💖
I live in Australia so shipping and the $$ change is something I have think about when buying from your shop. BUT the bag is something I really love so going buy one when you start selling them. Can’t wait!!
Just sat down to eat, happy to be here 😄
My order is on the way, thank you, I have been following several years and thank you..❤
I could watch your vlogs all day!
One sided bags are good. I would do the bunny on the bag! So cute.
Single side tote with small image on the inside would be my vote. Loved how the tote looked!
I think single sided with the inner pouch is cute!!
Oh I am so excited at the idea of those big tote bags with a zipper pouch! I’m a costume design university student and big tote bags like that are a lifesaver for art supplies and my sewing stuff, I’d love a luna moth one 💕

The ceramic pot would make a perfect painting water pot, because you can use the scalp design to hold your brushes!
Stamp looks great even with patchy parts looks hand done. 😊
16:36 I cannot get over how cute the BunBun transfer looks on the pocket! 🥹🥹🥹
It would look adorable on a make-up bag/pencil case/ pouch type thing too 🥰

I would go wilddddd for spiral bound dot or grid note books
Yaaay a Baylee video!
I love the design on black.
I suggest standing up and only having one box on the table so it isn’t squishy from each box layer :0 might work out better!
I love the stamp design! The majority of the totes I own only have a design on one side.
What about a large custom silicone stamp, that could be put on an acrylic block and then use a pressure tool? Better on the arms? ❤️❤️
Hey, for your stamping remover the handler and use a stamp glider tool on the wooden mount. Easier on your arms and better impression.

That bag is cute! If you do a witch hat tote, I would so buy!
For canada post - I think they are federal, they wouldn't get the provincial/civic holidays like family day/natal day(in NS)
This is correct - it's my first year working for the federal government and we didn't get Family Day off because it's not a federal holiday
The holiday list on their website does show some regional holidays, including Natal day. But pretty much every province has a holiday that day. There are a few others though that are specific to Quebec or Yukon that other provinces don't have off.

I really hope the strawberry hoodie chocolate color will be back in stock as I love that color cause I want to get it with the sleeves done on it. :)
I had the same problem with my corrugated boxes. I had to like "chest compression" it to have a solid line. Now my boxes has embossed stamp. Haha
Yay new Baylee video! Also baylee if the card doesn't get fixed the employer can imput the card number and put in a date in the future as the expire date we did that at my store all the time when gift cards wouldn't swipe :)

Not a Cliffhanger! 😭 I was so invested in the Garland drama 😂
The transfer looks great on one side of the tote. One side of the tote is less work than two sides.
Single side bag!
One sided with the zipper pocket will look adorable! If a Luna moth design comes up, I will slam my debit card.
Edited after seeing the other comments. Sorry for the duplicate suggestion! Baylee, I think you'll have better luck with the stamp if you don't have it on a stack of boxes. It will stamp more even if the space under it is firm.
i work at michaels and watching you go through all the isles that i stock at my store (seasonal stuff) gave me ptsd LOL its cute tho haha

When are you going to do more diamond art??
Would you ever consider making letter sweaters to sell? It looks so cute
No, because it would take all day to make one. I did it over 2 days and had to hoop the shirt at least 16 times.
i think single side is good for the totes, most if not all my existing totes are single-sided
35:50 I’ve looked at that pot every time I’ve gone into micheals and passed on it
now you’re making me want to go back and finally get it 😭
update : went to micheals today and got the last one that just so happened to be 60% off 🥹🥹
If you can't find palette knives you like, I wonder if cheese knives might have some smaller options that would work?
Stand up when your inking and stamping and it will be more even x
Strawberry crown bun?! 🥺
Don't know if anyone else mentioned this, but maybe stamping on a large lable? It would be a lot flatter. & I it comes in a roll... maybe faster to stamp.
I worked for JoAnns and had a friend who worked for Michael's both companies have the same rules they can type in the number and it should work.
I’m wheezing at Midna hanging half out of her bed with her legs splayed out like that!😂

The smoke is usually moisture that wasn't pressed out before.
All of my totes have single sided designs, I think single is fine!
the stamp will work better if you stamp the box on the table or hard surface - don't put other boxes under the box you are stamping.
I GOT THE PINK BOX HOLY CRAP AHHHH
i use to work with DTFs and ironing them on t-shirts, all that "smoke" is actually WATER VAPOR being boiled off. (according to my old boss at least)
if you were still doing the art videos, a “using EVERY SINGLE COPIC in one drawing” video would EAT 😪😌
single sided an flap is perfect i guess
Luna moth tan beach totes that are larger than the black one?
You need to ask yourself if the time Christian took away from the embroidery room to do the stamping would be better spent producing more sweatshirts for sale?
He has a lot of downtime while the machines are running.
A little felted or crocheted mouse would be so cute sticking out of the tea pot bird house.

Ahh, yes, I do need a little mouse for the bird house! Maybe I can steal one of the cat toys. 😆
Baylee, where you get your stamp?
Zazzle
They won't be great quality, but I've seen smaller metal pallet knives at Dollarama in Ontario recently!
I’d want a tote with the bunny head
Ok…what I’m hearing is…I need to order more bags. GOT IT! 🤣 I’ve been wanting to give everyone some of your bags for Christmas and such….just have to figure out how many I need. Need to do that before whole sale thing. So you get all the money!
Aww, so kind of you!
I have Watch you like forever and love you and you r husband. Kiki and midna are so cute and so funny.
Every time Baylee says DTF, I get flashbacks to The Jersey Shore.
Yaaaaay!!! ❤❤❤
