im 11 years old and learned to crochet almost a year ago but i started my first market/vending booth and got 150 dollars in 7 hours and now i still get orders from my moms facebook and i got a 60 and 50 dollar order right now!!!thank you for inspiring me and i made your turtle and sold it for 25$ and made 100$ from the turtles so thank you so much for all your patterns!!
I am 10 years old and have been crocheting for 5 years and is have done 7 outdoor markets and in my last market I made £527 in 4 hours and made about a thousand this year on orders from instagram 😊
Wow!!! I'm 13 years old and have been crocheting for less then a year. I started out selling on Facebook but eventually I made my way up to Etsy! I encourage you to keep up the great work! I'm very impressed! 👏👏
You should definitely keep making videos like this! I found this super fun to watch and I appreciate you saying what materials you use. As someone who is just starting off with their business I found this super helpful and just overall entertaining!
Just a caution, and, someone may have said it. But, be careful with colored tissue paper, if the package gets wet, the color will bleed on the plushie.
I shipped plenty of jewelry but no plushies yet. since I’m from Washington, I always put my stuff in a plastic bag in case of weather damage to the mailer or box. Something to consider since the season change is coming up. Very informative video though. Thank you.
As a small knitting/sewing Etsy business owner, I find your videos helpful. I started watching you with your market videos because I sold at a local farmers market this fall. From display ideas to pricing to what sells well is all helpful. I dont even sell crocheted animals and its still helpful. I did not even know about thermal label printers! I am seriously looking into getting one of those now. All the ink and tape I use and the time it takes to cut out labels could be cut way down and I think less $ in packing costs. I also appreciate the box suggestions in case I do need more of those, although I use bubble mailers mostly right now. Thank you Genna!
Your enthusiasm is so infectious...i have been crocheting for years but not i really want to try my hand at making plushies. Thanks for sharing all of your valuable knowledge with us😊
Binge watching your vids while doing my first crochet plushie for my baby 🐥 your vids are very encouraging and informative that will sure help crocheters starting their vids. Kudos to your bg sound as well 😗 really relaxing. Keep making vids lovelots!
Genna!!!! Every time I open a new video of yours, you have another 1,000 or more subscribers! Your channel is growing like gangbusters! So happy for you! Keep it up!!!!!
Idk how she made them, but vista print is a very common place to get these! However you have to buy bulks😅 it's alright though👍 hope this helps abit Edit: Her care instructions are from canva, you digitally design, buy, and they print + ship 🙂 (same with vista and the sticker place she mentioned)
Genna! I figured out how to make actual daisy pedals instead of doing the slip stich after the chain 2 just skip that step and it makes it rounded! Ok that's all also love ur vids 😊❤❤❤
Ya ya!! New video!! I can’t wait for your videos! Camera angle was perfect! ❤ I’ve been looking for some cool stickers packs and I seen some cute ones in your video today. Would you mind telling me what packs you got from Amazon? (I’m assuming lol) thank you!! love your videos!!!🎉❤🎉 congrats on 40k!!
I don’t know if you are aware but if you’re gonna start shipping thing internationally look up their laws. Because in the uk it’s illegal to sell plushies or anything with play value unless they’re safety tested. I have no idea if it’s the same if you’re selling internationally to the uk but it’s probably the same and you’d be putting your business at risk.
@@emekennede you’re so lucky in the US because your laws aren’t as strict as the UK 😩 anything with play value has to be tested here. I’ve been making pumpkins, intended as declaration but they hold play value so I have to test them!
Great video!! Love stopping in to ‘visit’ with you. What yarn do you use for your mini opposums? They are the perfect size! Looks like you use velvet yarn for the turtles?
I have been obsessed with your videos lately. Very informative and well made. Also helps that I love your crocheted items ♥ I have a question, what is the best way to find local markets? Do you change what items u bring for sale based on the type of market it is?
Idk why I keep stumbling upon your awesome videos only when it’s like past 12 am and I have school the next day and I really need to sleep I sweaaarrr im subbed Gennaaaa! Anyways I’m so tired and really need to sleep soon so I will come back tomorrow and watch this! Lysmmm Genna lots of love from India!
Omg Genna! I absolutely loved your packing order video, if possible, con you make another one? Sorry if not, I just really enjoyed the video, so, if possible, I think it would be amazing. Thanks again for creating that's amazing VERY entertaining you audience/ me and, keep up the good work!!
This looks awesome! I got inspired by you quite a bit, i'm just wondering where you print your thank you cards and such? And also how you decide on your care instructions?
Thanks for your inspiring videos. I was wondering if you still like that label printer? I am looking for one to start my business and thought I would check if it is still working or if you moved to something else.
Those are very cute :-) BTW, the label you printed says "Home Made" and is an oven mitt. I think you should find a crochet needle or something, just a suggestion.
Can you make a video tutorial for the mini turtles? I would be so gratful😊 Also my mom ordered me a purple strawberry turtle got it a couple weeks ago! IT IS SO CUTE!!!!🥰 I love your videos💕
hey, how do you think we could print labels without a printer? Cool video btw! Also, could you maybe share the care instructions? I am making plushies but am not really sure how they could be cleaned (I use YarnArt Dolce yarn and fleece polyfill)
hellooo I have a question . i am a new crocheter and i really am into it and now after 1 month of crocheting i want to start my business can i sell your octopi don't worry i will give you credit
Hi, I’ve got a question. I’m from France and I want to know if there are any taxes adding to the cost of the plushes when we place an order apart from the shipping ? I really enjoy your videos😊
Hi Genna! I’m a beginner and just recently started crochet about two weeks ago! The first plushie I ever made was from following your octopus tutorial and I was obsessed, thank you so much! I have been interested in making bees now and I was wondering what yarn you use to make them? It would really help me out to know, thank you!
Hi, I've been trying to make a magic ring with the honey bunny, plush yarn, and every time that I try to tighten it by pulling, it pops and breaks. Could you do a slow tutorial of how you're able to make a magic ring with the yarn or do you have any tips?
I am loving your plushies. I just learned to crochet. I am 56yrs old.. 😊
Your camera angle was perfect no worries. I love watching you pack boxes. Everything looked great! Thanks so much for sharing.
Awww thank you so much, you’re so sweet ❤️❤️❤️

I would love to see how you made your care instruction cards and business cards!
Idk how she made them, but vista print is a very common place to get these! However you have to buy bulks😅 it's alright though👍 hope this helps abit
Edit: Her care instructions are from canva, you digitally design, buy, and they print + ship 🙂 (same with vista and the sticker place she mentioned)
your plushies are so cute and beautiful!! i love them
I love Shay in the background (18:32 to 18:55) so silly and cute!
Yes!!a new Ms. Genna video!!
I am watching!!! My granddaughter Grace Anne is going to LOVE these!!! 💕🎀 Karen
Love your videos! What you be willing to share what you put on your care instructions?
Genna! I figured out how to make actual daisy pedals instead of doing the slip stich after the chain 2 just skip that step and it makes it rounded! Ok that's all also love ur vids 😊❤❤❤
The way you package your orders is so cute! I'm sure all of your customers feel very valued. ☺

I have no idea if it’s the same if you’re selling internationally to the uk but it’s probably the same and you’d be putting your business at risk.
thank you for letting me know! will look into it ❤
There are actually laws in the US too when it comes to play value but a lot of people don't know about them!
Yep why my items are novelty and for decor proposes only. I never use the words “plushies, stuffed animals, lovies ECT “
@@emekennede you’re so lucky in the US because your laws aren’t as strict as the UK 😩 anything with play value has to be tested here. I’ve been making pumpkins, intended as declaration but they hold play value so I have to test them!
I could watch you all day! You are a very awesome person and crocheter and video Maker.
That yellow turtle was so cute!! I wonder if the real one is albino. It sounds like it might be, especially because of the red eyes!
Aww thank you!! I think it was!!
@@crochetbygenna That's super cool!!
I love your videos so much❤️❤️you inspired me to start crocheting and now I do so much

Where did you get the pattern for the mallard duck from? He's amazing 😍
I'm really curious what you include as your care instructions! I have no idea how to best care for my plushies 😅
Hi! We have 2 kittens & they prefer boxes too. Especially Amazon boxes, lol.

I actually loved this video! Don't worry about Angle I liked it x
What yarn did you use for the fluffy turtle? Love your videos. Thanks
This looks awesome! I got inspired by you quite a bit, i'm just wondering where you print your thank you cards and such? And also how you decide on your care instructions?
I don’t know for sure but for care labels I’m assuming you’d use the washing instructions on the yarn you bought to make the item.
i love your vids!! you are so good at crocheting!! i can't stop make your jumbo sunflower turtles!!!!!!!! :D
Thanks for your inspiring videos. I was wondering if you still like that label printer? I am looking for one to start my business and thought I would check if it is still working or if you moved to something else.
I love watching your vids and crocheting. I’m crocheting a turtle right now!
I love watching u pack order❤
My mom got me a pattern from your Etsy! (Mini axolotl) and I’m soo exited to try it out and hopefully I can make some for my first market!
I love this video so much ty for doing it 😍
YYYAYA NEW VIDEO 😆
PERFECT watching this will sewing on arms 😩🤞
Ahh good luck, sewing is the worst 😭❤
You must be so busy doing this. So nice you are shipping to Australia!
The video was so fun to watch! But the printer label is it a sticker or do you use tape to stick it to the box?
That was fun watching
Where did you get your brand sticker that you were putting on your boxes?? They’re so cute!! 😭 also I just found your channel and I’m obsessed ❤️❤️
Do you draw all your own designs for the stickers? I really want to learn how to use my tablet to do that.
We have chickens and one is speckled and black like that
Question. I just started my shop, and was wondering how you printed or where you got your business cards after making them in Canva?
What do you use to print your shipping labels? Like Pirateship or something?
Those are very cute :-) BTW, the label you printed says "Home Made" and is an oven mitt. I think you should find a crochet needle or something, just a suggestion.
Can you make a video tutorial for the mini turtles? I would be so gratful😊 Also my mom ordered me a purple strawberry turtle got it a couple weeks ago! IT IS SO CUTE!!!!🥰 I love your videos💕
OMG genna I LOVE your videos !❤❤❤❤❤❤

You may want to print out a label with crochet hooks for your label &made with love
Yarn is expensive here in the UK, but I was wondering how much your Jumbo turtles use?
My name is Shay so every time you talk about the cat I think your talking to me😂
Also this is my fav video yet! Pls do more of these 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
Where do you get your fuzzy yarn/what brand?
Hi Genna. My grandmother and I are starting a crochet etsy shop. Any tips? LUV ur vids btw!
