I'm so glad I found you! I've been throwing around the idea of making scrunchies and you've kept it so real. Thank you =)
Best of luck to you and thanks for watching. If you have any questions I can do my best to help. 🥰
Nice work
I can relate to not posting on social media and being a solopreneur. I don’t have a family but I work M-F with kids so they really zap my energy especially my creativity. Learning how to create content and post it has been another issue but I’ve gotten better. I’m in no rush and do what I can when I can.
Watching kids in great numbers can be an energy drainer, even 1 sometimes can take all of your energy. What works for me when I have time is doing batch videos. I have a few videos that I've done and have yet to edit, this summer has been very busy in my house.
You're very real 🩷 love all the advice. Thank you!
I appreciate that! Thanks for watching. 🥰
Thank you to share! You are gorgeous :)
Thank you so much!! 🥰
Great tips. Thank ypu so muuuch. Blessings flow❤
You are so welcome and same to you. 🥰
Missed ya! Great video!
Hey, thanks!
I got 4 kids 7,4,2,and 4 months old .I reopen my etsy shop in April still no sales yet .doing everything by myself is really hard. I open my etsy last year when I watched ur video. I got a lot of help from u thank you. I love to creating when I was little .I didn't know I can sale. After I watch ur video n Tina it gives me courage to open my own shop. Thank you again 😊
Congrats!!! It is quite challenging doing everything by yourself especially having younger kids too. When it comes to your Etsy shop have you tried running ads and promotions? Also, make sure you are using good search terms for the items you are selling. Great photos go a long way too. Make sure your listed items are pictured clearly and have good lighting too, just a few tips that could be helpful. Best of luck too you don't give up.
Hi sis, thanks for sharing 🙏🏾 I am currently working on growing my social media presence for my hair accessories business and also being a mom. I am motivated to keep going at my own pace.
No problem. I've had to learn to stop stressing and work at my own pace. Sometimes I post every day and sometimes it may be once a month. If I have time for social media I post and if I don't , then I don't. I will say using a social media scheduler helps if you can get the content and photos done ahead of time you can drop them into the scheduler to post daily for you. I use Metricool , they have a free package you can start with. Best of luck to you. 🥰
Ahhhh so glad you said this like i have made over 100 hundred scrunchies to find the size im happy with me - cant give that out😅
Yes, that's top-secret information...lol😊 . I'm sure I've made over 100 samples in different lengths and fabric types to figure out my perfect scrunchie sizes.
❤❤
If you can not afford to do custom fabric I know Joann, at least our local, does remnants for up to an extra 50-75% off. For around a yard or less, so there are easy, quick and something you can use to test out sizing and fabric types.
Just came across your channel today. You gave great advice which I really appreciate. I have a successful Etsy store and want to start making scrunches so I have been doing a lot of watching videos. Yours was different from the others. Appreciate your time to help us.
Thanks so much! I pray you have tons of success with your scrunchies.🥰
Thank you for your instructions and advice. Very valuable information. I have never heard of a Solopreneur. But, that fits me. I'd rather do things myself. However, I'm not on any social media.
Thank you. Continue to prosper.
Glad it was helpful! I'm on social media, but not really into as I don't have much time to post, create, or watch other's content. 🤦🏾♀️ It's hard for me to find time, but when I do get some I try to batch record content. Thanks for watching. 🥰
I can relate to the funk train. I started with scrunchies for the holidays and sold more than I anticipated. I’m out of the funk and trying out bow barrettes next.
Hi,
Glad you're off the funk train. Bows are fun to make.I started out making and selling bows almost 18 years ago. 😊
Hi I have a child with autism and just trying to start a scrunchie business and I do only with fabric waste. I go to the local tailor and get the fabric scraps and use them. So there’s not really repetition in designs but I love it to stop fabric waste. And I only sew during the first half of the day say 3 hours. And like you said I’ve kept Monday for cutting, Tuesday to make the tubes, Wednesday to rope in the elastic and Thursday to hand sew to close them. I like to that as I don’t like to show the stitch. It looks neater for me atleast that way. I love your videos, I’m learning a lot about elastics and everything through your videos! Thank you!
Aww... Thanks so much. I'm glad I was able to give you good information. I pray you have much success with your scrunchies. 🥰
@@OMGScrunchieClubCo thank you! 🤗🙏
I googled on Facebook about scrunchie business and the first video that popped up was don’t start a scrunchie business by none other then you lol, then 2 videos down it’s Start a scrunchie business with me 2023. I wonder what changed in 2 years for you.
The "Don't Start a Scrunchie Business" video actually doesn't encourage making scrunchies. It talks about adding other items in addition to scrunchies to your business. The title name is more of a "clickbait", to get views to explore why I'd say that in hopes of them thinking bigger than scrunchies only.
Did you create your own website?
Hi
I hope soon start my own scrunchies business , I have a lot of kind of fabrics for this sewing projects 🧵🪡 .
Thanks for sharing 🔝 .
Congrats. I wish you the best with your scrunchie business. 🥰
❤🧡💚💙💜
Hi! 🥰
Loved your colorful scrunchies, what is the size of your elastic? and fabrics length?
Hello,
I don't give out my scrunchie measurements and my elastic length depends on the size of the scrunchie I make. 😊
Regarding being a soloprenuer, have you even considered paying a contractor to make your scrunchies to free up more of your own time? I think it would make sense. You can get very affordable labor in certain countries. Someone told me about this option years ago when I was designing accessories.
Yes, I've thought of that, but I don't want to share my measurements with anyone I don't know or trust . 🤦🏾♀️ I was hoping my daughters would be interested in helping, but they are only interested in doing photoshoots for me when they have time. They aren't into crafting and sewing like I am.
@@OMGScrunchieClubCo There are or were so many contractors in Los Angeles. But the prices are lower in places like Vietnam. There is another young lady who is in the same field and her parents help her. I just think contracting would improve your life. Maybe you could bring someone in your studio to help them. One to cut in batches, someone to see & install elastic. Consider this. When people buy your scrunchies , they can deconstruct for the math anyway. It might be worth a try to delegate some things .
@@OMGScrunchieClubCo also you can send out your content to an editor who can help with the content part of it and make something from your footage . You just record while you work. 😁
I'm still working on the "logistics" like, how do you know what yo charge for shipping? How is that worked out. Especially for large orders with many items that require a large box. How do you charge a customer for shipping when u don't know how much they will buy? A video on shipping would be AWESOME!!!❤❤
Hey Girl, Hey!
For my website I use Shopify. In Shopify, you can put the weight of each item and then the shipping is automatically calculated for the customer. You can set your shipping location to be Domestic or International. I ship with the United States Postal Service so as customers add scrunchies to their orders the shipping rates adjust. Not sure where you're located, but I live in the U.S. and I ship free in the U.S. and charge everywhere else. My scrunchies usually weigh less than 1 ounce so they aren't expensive to ship, so for people local, I figure why not ship free. I also use lightweight poly mailers. Since scrunchies aren't expensive to make and can have a high profit margin free shipping or a set flat rate shipping (ex. $5.99) may work too. It's good to know your cost of goods if you go this route so that you know exactly how much it cost to make a scrunchie. I hope this helps. Let me know if I can help with anything else. 🥰
@@OMGScrunchieClubCo - thank you SOOOO MUCH for the great advice. That has been one of the factors that has caused me to pause my online store. Shipping. I'm in Texas for now but moving soon and it's something I can do even on the road so USPS is all over the states so that is awesome to know that it's all about the weight of each ítem. I was wracking my brain trying to figure it out. Lol thank you!!!❤️🙏
@@BrooklyngirlLovesCrochet No problem, happy to help. Best of luck to you with your business. Also, if you use Etsy you can add the weight as well. You should be able to have your weight automatically calculated on most e-commerce websites.
@@OMGScrunchieClubCo - Thank you!!!
May the Lord, the God of your fathers increase you a thousand times more than you are, and bless you, just as He has promised you! -Deuteronomy 1:11
Please make a video regarding delivery of parcel
Yes, I can do that. What country would you ship from? I know international shipping can be expensive. I don't charge to ship in the United States as it is inexpensive to ship within my country.
How wide and long electric is please ❤ and thank you
I use different sizes of elastics and lengths depending on the type of scrunchie I am making. My elastic width ranges from 1/4-1/2 in.
Hi I have just started to watch your videos I would love to start up a business making scrunchies I am 62 Year’s old I live in uk I would like to know where to sell them I am also making t’shirt designs
You can sell them online, at craft markets in your area and you can get your friends and family to support your business as well. Best of luck to you. 🥰
What's the name of the item you are using to pass elastic into the scrunchies? Thanks
Hi, It’s called a Bodkin 🥰.
@@OMGScrunchieClubCo Oh,really? I have metal bodkin but yours looks like plastic. Thanks
@@uzuhcharity1157 yes, this one is plastic. I have metal ones as well. The ones I have kind of reminds me of a pair a tweezers with a locking mechanism to hold the ends in place.
Sister how to send parcel through mail it's ok but do they charge money
Hello,
I send my items through the United States postal service. You can charge shipping to your customers at checkout, or you can add your shipping price to your scrunchies and have your shipping charges as "free" to the customer. 🥰
I just want to say you are very beautiful
Awww, Thanks so much. 🥰
