*REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE*
ME: remembers how long it took to get the hang of the crayolas, and then one day, like magic ✨, it totally clicked! Don't give up!! 💜
@@LemonadeStore well that was inspiring
Lol I have calligraphy markers too so there’s literally no excuse for me
Because what is really is, If you have the talent. Whatever pen you hold you can do that. It's about the hand that it's controlling.. not the pen that you holding. But don't give up, try and try. Because a miracle is just always here. 💓💓 Love lots and stay safe stranger. 😌💜 I hope you'll develope well. ✨❤️✌🏻🤞🏻
The tip about not moving your wrist is genius! I never thought about that being the reason my lines aren't straight 😂
Loved the video. Liked using a less expensive product and get beautiful results!
Jill
Yes!! Exactly! I love the look and versatility too. Thanks Jill! I added your name 💙
Exactly so true 👍
I really enjoy your videos and have wanted to learn to do this. I’m disabled due to a car wreck 9/2010 caused by a young adult texting on their iPhone. My husband has changed one of spare rooms into a craft room to get me up and doing what I love it’s just so hard when you are in pain 24/7.
Please continue to share your amazing talents.
Thank you so much for watching and for your support! I am so sorry to hear about your accident, and sending you lots of healing energy. It’s awesome your hubby set up a craft room, and I am planning on do a bunch more crafts coming up! Big hugs!!💕
I hope you get better
Love YU mam , keep going
Blueyes05 I’m so sorry🤧🤧All prayers go out to you
I pray for you 🙏🏿🙏🏿❤❤
You just told me how to make straight lines😊😊😊😉 thank you
When you don't have any cone shaped markers--👀
Her: *does the whole name in one color*
Her again: now let's add the next color and mix them with water
Me:*pours a whole cup of water*
Me Again: I think it needs more water. Lol😂😂😂😂😂
*”That beautiful THICC line”*
I love it.!!! for somebody who is inexperienced, me, inexpensive is encouraging to to practice with
Right? That's my whole thing. Just first try things out, and then go buy all the things...lol! Thanks Barbara for watching and for the support!
I prefer using this better than the brush pens. Brush pens are really hard to control.
I love this tutorial. I'm glad to see someone do this with crayola markers. I do see that it's easy. Can you do it in my name, LaCourdia. Thank you
Thank you so much LaCourdia! I will add your name to the jar 💕
This is a very cool video and your calligraphy words are also very nice!

Agata is my name :D
Love your videos!!! Jennifer the lefty is trying this. Not easy but your encouragement helps!
Thank you so much! wish i had more info on lefties...xoxo
If you could find the time, would you use my family's names in a tutorial my husband Brandan, me Liana and our two daughters Ryelie (5), and Jaxsyn (2).
I did find this tutorial to be more help than most i have seen today I'm currently trying to make poster for an event at work so thank you so much for you help and insight!
You are welcome, and thank you for the support on my channel! I added all the names to the box!
It’s amazing how cheap these markers are but still look beautiful on the paper with the right techniques. Name is madeline also :v
I know, right? That's why I love using them. You can really do lots of different things. But don't get me wrong, I love all different types! i have a pen problem 😂. Thank you so much for watching!
WOW this is amazing , just love it ....wow so good . I d love to see how you can write my name Barbara
Thank you soooo much Barbara! I really appreciate the support on my channel and for taking the time to comment! I added your name!
I just started lettering and watching different techniques, thanks. Kathyleen
Do Keontae
I will add it to the jar! Thanks for watching!
Thank you for sharing your techniques especially with Crayola markers since they are so available.
You are so welcome! Thanks for your support on my channel!
Marquita or my middle name Antwanette 💕💕
This is easily one of the best, most easy to follow lettering tutorials I have watched so far. Thank you!
yay!! so glad it helped! Thank you so much for taking the time to comment 💕
Came across your channel here in 2021. I would like my name to be added in the jar. My name is violette and I love your content. Journaling is making a comeback. It getting more popular than ever.
YeS it's amazing!
Don't know how I found myself here on Christmas night, 2019. Great video, very interesting.
Awesome!! Can you add the name "Gabriela" to the jar? 🖍🖊 🖌💛💙💜💚❤😍
Name Isra
Love this tortrial ❤️💕
My name is Tina
Recently obsessed with calligraphy and this helped out thank you 😊
Hi! Can you add me to the jar? I'm Kerra 😊
Love your techniques!...wish I could see more of you actually writing, your thumb gets in the way a bit because of how you hold your marker with your thumb, a little unorthodox. Great job using the markers!
Your lettering is beautiful. I wish it was as effortless as you make it seem!
its really just practice! trust me, you can do this! thank you so much 💕
this takes skill!
Can you do Gnister? I have a unique name. My middle name is uneeke. You say it like unique. Loved this video btw ❤️
I feel like it would be tough for left handed people. I don't want my hand brushing over the wet markets or paint so I would have to hold it at a higher angle... And not getting good thick strokes. Or am I over thinking it?
you definitely need to turn your paper more drastically, and really stop and slow down in between strokes. The concepts are probably similar, but since I am not a lefty, I can't give more advise...so sorry!! give it a go and let me know how it goes!💕
I want my school name can u plzz help me it is
PHOENIX ENGLISH MEDIUM SCHOOL
Plzzzzzzz its urgent
It was really very nice. I liked the word "CRAYOLA" the most, can you please tell me how did you design the word "crayola" and what is that actually called?
Thank you from India😊❤
donzai anurag "crayola" is the name of the company that fabricates those markers
Donnie I think the question is for the name of the design tequnique used for writing crayola...
Donnie thank you so much for replying.
But my question was what is that technique in which she designed the word "Crayola"?
How did she give upper and lower curves to her letters?😇❤
sistabird Correct!!
Plz tell me if you know it😇❤😊
donzai anurag omg sorry, i apologize. I sound dumb now

Hi Kristen! It's available as a free download on my skillshare class. if you don't have skillshare, here is a link for 2 months free www.skillshare.com/r/user/thelemonadestore
Thank you for sharing this. I have had trouble getting the pressure portion down on these markers. I still have a good bit of work done but I am now making progress. Thanks!
It just takes time and practice. For me, it was like, one day I woke up and the pressure worked!! Building that muscle will help with practice. Thank you so much for watching Carissa!💛
Love this video I’ve been watching and subscribe for some time now I’d love to get my daughter name done if that’s okey please she’s called Erin thank you xxx
First, thank you so much for supporting my channel! I added Erin's name to the jar!! 💕
I have started to try calligraphy I got the Crayola calligraphy book at the Dollar Tree. It has made my lettering much nicer but I have not figured out the pressure yet. I would love to see my name. Christelle
It just takes time. Your muscles literally need to adjust to it I think. Thank you so much for watching Christelle! I added your name to the jar💙
U have given me some ideas. Thank You so much for the information.
I’ll have to register for ur skill share classes. Brush lettering is so difficult. I’m trying not to give up. I’m a lefty and I seem to have difficulties figuring out how to hold the pen. Practice practice practice they. My name is Roxanne if u want to add it to the jar!
Hello I’m Elena, and I LOVE calligraphy, I’ve been doing it for about 3 years. I would love it if u could add my name 😊keep up the good work!
Aww I love your name!!

You are so welcome! Thank you for watching and I added your name. Totally appreciate the support!💛
I only recently became interested in learning this writing. Isn't it funny how this coincides with schools not teaching cursive anymore...I hope that isn't true! Your methods are easy to follow and practice is a must.

I love this tutorial! I am a bullet journal "beginner" and my bullet journal doesn't look that good...This really helps! Thanks!
Awesome! You can use your journal to track your practice 😄! Set aside at least 15 min a day to play with markers!
Very helpful! Thanks for posting!! I have done calligraphy for years and now trying to incorporate bounce lettering. Is there a guide for when to go below the baseline or (specific letters)? Is there a suggested number of dips below the baseline per word?
Hi Janet! I have guides for bounce lettering in my shop and there is a bouncy style video on youtube if you haven't seen it. My shop can be found at www.thelemonadestore.com and click shop! Thanks for watching Janet! I added your name to the jar too 😄

Hi, I'm Jayne and I got this party as soon as I could. I've managed to acquire/collect pens of all walks of life but never in my wildest dreams thought to use Crayola markers. Guess I'm stopping at the nearest store to pick up a pack and start playing/practicing a new lettering option! Thanks so much for the inspiration!!!
JAYNE!! So glad you made it to the partay 😂! Seriously, they are one of my faves to use because they are so versatile. Thanks for watching!💕

Natalie is my name. Please add a o the jar!! Also maybe have a guest do it left handed for people ( like me) that way I don’t have to do it opposite
hmmm, that an interesting idea! I actually do know some lefties too. Share your instagram if you have one! thanks for watching Natalie and I added your name to the jar.
The Lemonade Store thank you for adding me to the jar!!! I’m a new subscriber!! My instagram is @fantastic_natalie14 and my 2nd account is going to be for more creative things like calligraphy is @random_slime_14 And could you maybe have them do a video on your channel or something so lefties could get the idea of how to do it easier??
Yes please! I’m a leftie too and there’s not a lot out there for us ... I think the process is a bit different... thanks!
I'm Annie
Not for me, left hander, did not work, back to ink and pen
Oh Dear, i'm a Lefty too... haven't tried this yet but will see..
Fellow lefty here. Have you tried a guard sheet
im a lefty too but it worked for me
does it work?
I'm left toooo

You have gorgeous writing and strong hands. Spoil yourself with a manicure. You have so much skill in those hands. Pamper them 😉
lol, i occasionally do, but to be honest with you, I also garden a ton and manicures dont last long. not to mention all the ink I get everywhere...oh well, the life of a creator 💙
I have an 11 year old son who is going to learn calligraphy this year (we homeschool). He's very artistic and I was wondering if he would benefit from your skillshares class? JLMK thanks!
Hi! I think it depends on what you would like to teach. Hand lettering is totally different from cursive, and my calligraphy style is more crafty fun and not like traditional Spencerian (or something like that). You are welcome to try the course for free for 2 months using this link: www.skillshare.com/r/user/thelemonadestore What is awesome, is there are lots of different courses on here, which I love. Anything from software, art, sewing, etc. Thanks so much for watching!!
I use super tips and I agree, the way you hold your crayola marker is easiest for me. It helps me get both thick downtsrokes and super thin upstrokes. Great video by the way.
Your r's are gorgeous. My r's are really simple--mostly because I'm still not very good at them. Do you think you could show us the alphabet with Crayola?
Hi Lyla! Seriously, thank you for taking the time to comment. It really means a lot! I can maybe do a video of the alphabet! I will add that to my wish list of videos!
@@LemonadeStore No problem. It's really nice that you reply to comments. Us commenters usually have a lot of questions. XD
Keep up the great work!
love this so much!
would love to see my username "Lovejaycakes" lol!
Love it! Added it to the jar, and thank you for the support 💕💕
Great Video...
Great information...
Thank you for sharing this..
Beautiful...
Thank you so so much! I really appreciate the support 💕
I have never seen anything like this...
It is amazing...
Nice!
Flin. Also, I love my name but hate writing the letter F. It’s been like this my entire life. Any help with making the letter pretty & functional? And maybe any signature advice. Like how to incorporate a pretty letter F into my signature? Thank you!
Love your name too and F's can be tricky. I usually write my uppercase F's more like a number seven. I think I took a version of cursive I learned from grade school but then made it my own. It might help to google fonts and then play around with different styles. Pinterest has tons too!! Thanks for watching and I will add your name Flin!
@@LemonadeStore great tips! Thank you so much! Also, can't wait to see my name in a video! That will be soooo cooool!
can gou calligraphy my name KHAMILLE please 😊
I added your name Khamille! Thanks for watching!
Oh my gosh! This was such a beautiful video! It definitely inspires me to actually go out and buy those crayola markers and try it for myself! (:
Also, really love the ombre effect with the green and dark greens! Looked really intriguing and pretty.
Thank you!!! It is lots of fun and just remember to practice a little everyday if you can!

Hello, great video. New subscriber. Please add my name, Kenya, to your jar. Thanks.
Hi Kenya! Thank you so much for subscribing and I appreciate the support! I added your beautiful name! 💙💙💙
Please do my name Brenda. You do such a fabulous job. Just found you. Can't wait to see all your awesome work. I want to learn calligraphy so bad. My Dad used to be amazing at it. He did all his Christmas cards using it on the envelopes. Would sit and watch him do it for hour's. He sent out over 100 cards every year too. Brave man. 😃. I didn't get his talent not sure I could ever learn how to do it. But sure would love if I could. 😔
That is such a wonderful memory! I hope I can help encourage you to just start practicing! It’s amazing how you can learn and improve if you letter a little every day! Thanks for your support and for watching. I’ll add your name to the bowl! 💕💕
PLEASE show me how to do Chris and Debbie
AND YOU HAVE BEEN DOING THIS FOR HOW MANY YEARS...?
Hi Dora! About 2.5 years now, but in all fairness I was obsessed for a long time trying to get the hang of it. Practicing in every spare moment 💕 and I have always been a doodler 😍
Hey Its Celine, cool video.
Thanks Celine! I added your name!
