@@hayhayslifee some of my past tutorials show the magic circle! i’d say my water bottle holder updated tutorial has a really clear shot of the magic circle :)
Lovely work. I think your bags would sell if you stuffed them with tissue paper and displayed them on your table. Also, do the same with the bucket hats. Stuff them with paper and display on table. I think they will sell. Especially that gorgeous granny square bag!! Glad it was a successful market.
i thought that too, but you might be surprised! either way, don’t undersell your products because you think people will think it’s too expensive, you deserve a fair amount for the work you put in!
Trust me. Don’t underprice your stuff. If someone wants something bad enough, they will get it regardless. I think a lot of people who crochet underprice themselves, but if everyone actually charged what their time is worth, then buyers wouldn’t understand that the little higher prices are the norm.
Can I give you a little finishing tip? When adding edging where you need to crochet into the ends of rows, always do the first time around with the same yarn as the garment. It's very hard to get those stitches perfectly consistent, but nobody can tell that if it blends into the existing color. Then for your contrasting color will be worked into actual stitches so it will look much more professional.
Great show! I get so discouraged doing shows bc fees are high and I stitch with wool and alpaca blends and intricate patterns. Thanks for inspiration not to give up!
I would've added some crinkle paper to the bottom of the crate so I could still put little plushies there. That's just me though still so so cute I loved how you worked around you issue. I luved the shelves with the little ones.
I’ve learned that selling at colleges is the way to go. I’m treasurer for the frat I’m in and for fundraising I decided to crochet some stuff after one of the other eboard members made some plushies that sold really well. They all went within an hour and we had like 20 plushies total 😂
You’re so beautiful , so much talented , your room is beyond exhilarating and fun and looks incredible , your family should be proud of such a girl like you ❤😍🦋 i totally admire your creations , Good luck luv 😘👍
That is really awesome!! I am going to have to start making plushies!! It's fun to just meet people & visit with people!! It's a big plus if you can make money!!
Thank you so much for this video!! I’ve been wanting to open stalls at craft fairs and such for all my crochet and this really game me a lot of good info on pricing, and what items sell well 🥰🥰
This is a great video but it's also very interesting to hear the info you gathered. As someone who is okay at crochet and may go toa pop up in the future it's just cool to hear you say how the plushies sold out faster while only one water bottle holder sold out. Thanks for the great video!
Your colors and patterns are so pretty I just think the tablecloth distracts from them!! Maybe a soft white (not white white white, not ivory, not beige, but you knows soft white) so the focus is on your things more!! And in your wire crate/shelve stand.. maybe insert a neutral color background for all sides.. even a piece of card stock so you can’t see the wall and floor behind your cute plushies! And it would be super cute if you were able to hang a tapestry on that wall behind you. A neutral, soft color one but pretty and eye catching. If those walls are fabric I think you can use “memo pins”.. I use to use them to hang things in my cubicle. I think they’re made for cubicle fabric. And maybe hang your wearable items in rainbow order or length order.. just to make it eye catching. Just some thoughts on inexpensive changes… as I used to help my mom setup booths and in a way you’re competing visually with other spaces you want to stand out as much as possible without spending too much more &&… use the tapestry at home when done! I love how much joy you put into anything you do.. such great vibe you have. And you’re so prettyyyyyyyy
I love how much you love that jumper. It's well made and looks good in that respect. Personally it's not my taste and I'd probably make fun of it. But you made that in less than a week? That's awesome.
I wonder if you added a face to the heart if it would sell? As a buyer, it’s so hard to look at cute thingies w faces and say no 🤣 so I imagine a heart w a little face on its own would make me snatch it up quick
Hey! I've been trying out crocheting plushies (i normally make crochet clothes) just wondering if you have any tips for a beginner in plushie making. Btw love all the stuff you made its gorgeous ❤
i would say learning how to crochet in the round, how to increase, and invisible decrease are the main things! and then just getting the hang of working with fuzzy yarn because it can definitely be challenging seeing your stitches, so making sure to count your stitches as you go!
wow you just poped on my feed....im a fellow creator , crocheter....that jumper....woooooowwwww id love to make one, where did you get the pattern from...absolutly love the colours too.....subscribed :)
Beginner crocheting here and making a little business already.It’s hard to sell because people doesn’t know the price of handmade products giving them the fair price is already pricey for them🫢
Plus they have collapsing ones like that smaller ones and then facebook marketplace for the big black ones I think they come from vendors or something for groceries 😊
i like the lil stand up price boards, are they like mini chalk boards ? im sooooooo stoked how well you did...absolutley awesome, i never do that good, last 2 i did recentlly, didnt even make my rent of £30 per day :( x
i looooooove your plushies! what kind of yarn and hook did you use for your cows and dinos? also, how do you crochet so fast becasue i’m actually atrocious and it takes me forever. 😅
I just found your yt channel so you may have answered this question before, however, I'm wondering if you've ever gotten any requests to not sell the things you make from using other people's patterns from yt or even etsy?? i follow tutorials on yt all the time and have made some adjustments to the patterns, but not always. i'm working on a collection of things to sell on my website, however, so far, i haven't actually created any patterns myself and I'm a bit worried about selling products using patterns other people created. lol
most patterns will say on them or in the descriptions whether you can sell products using the pattern! i’d say majority are totally fine with it, especially if you credit them online :)
Hi i love your products and im looking to buy some. But what country's currency is the prices in? just I can get an understanding of the price in my country's currency
1:41 OMG MY EYE SWEATER PATTERN YOURE WEARING ITTTT. i love it!! i saw it in the thumbnail and realized i HAD to watch. Great video ! 💕
LOVED your tutorial!! the sweater worked up so fast & came out perfectly 💗💗
I’m a beginner crocheted and find this so inspiring! Thank you!
i'm so glad! thank you for watching ❤️
Omg me too! I can’t for the life of me figure out the magic circle!!!! @strongearthcreations can you make a tutorial??
@@hayhayslifee some of my past tutorials show the magic circle! i’d say my water bottle holder updated tutorial has a really clear shot of the magic circle :)
i would buy that Lovejoy bag so fast, their first album is my absolute favorite, I need it omg
omg the lovejoy tote bag is sooo cute!!
thank you!!

Or get a maniquine head & display them! You can get stirophom ones really cheap!!
People at my college are so cheap they would never buy crochet plushies if I made them for that price 😭
i thought that too, but you might be surprised! either way, don’t undersell your products because you think people will think it’s too expensive, you deserve a fair amount for the work you put in!
Same 😢

I think a lot of people who crochet underprice themselves, but if everyone actually charged what their time is worth, then buyers wouldn’t understand that the little higher prices are the norm.
Really??? I thought those prices were really reasonable if not low
I am so sorry for that. They are college students and they should realize the crochet products are so valuable❤
when you said “eighh$” I said PERIODDDDDDDDDD!!!!!!!!! I’m so inspired thanks for sharing this process 🫶🏾🧿 i loved your sweater too
thank youuu!! 💓

As a crocheter I might just do this! You profited so much!!! Back in my day we just did lemonade stands, but this might just be better.
Just found your channel and the music choice and vibes are EVERYTHING! IM HERE FOR IT ❤

Are the tops without a pattern just freehanded? I love the cropped tank in rainbow yarn
yeah freehanded! i just did two rectangular panels, sew them together & added straps
Hey i don't know if you'll get to me but do you use cotton or acrylic for projects? (even if any commenters want to respond please do!!)
depends on the project! for water bottle holders and some tops, i use cotton. for hats and majority of tops and sweaters i usually use acrylic
@@strongearthcreations thank you so much ❤
Love your page! I would to watch more beginner friendly videos pls!!
Hello do you have tutorial for cat ear beanie?
Cute❤ love it😂
Okay but the bi flag hat!! You ate sis.

Do you have a pattern for the purple sweater @ 13:39? I love it so much!
i just used a random raglan sweater pattern on youtube!
@@strongearthcreations thank you so much for the response, I will look further!
hii, can I ask you what yarn you used to make the eye sweater? 💕
i used a ton of scraps so they’re all different brands, but they’re all acrylic worsted weight yarn!
What hook size did you use for your eye sweater?
i think it was either an 8 or 9mm
Very cool sweater 😊
Please do a tutorial for your cat ear beanie
okay! i’ll work on making a tutorial for it
youre so prettyyy
thank you so much 🥰
