WOW! I didn't expect this video to BLOW UP like it did everyone 🎉 Thanks so much for all of your lovely comments - I will definitely be responding to everyone ASAP. Thanks again and Happy Holidays ✨
Thank you Sterling I stated making hat, turban, and hair bows. Finally some of my hats have sold. With your information I will continue in the direction of head ware. I am a soap maker needing a new product line. And I am a seamstress. Again thank you I have submitted to your TH-cam channel.🌹
This is an excellent video. Thank you so much. I do fiber art, too -- fashion design and flat pattern drafting, a little quilting, embroidery, knotting, coiling, stamping etc, Turkish marbling, foiling, dyeing, discharging, beading (did I forget something?) -- but no more weaving. I gave up my loom, because it was hurting my posture. I'm saving this video.
Great video. Thank you. This is why I love the art/creative community. There is hardly any gatekeepers. Everyone wants to help everyone. It's a beautiful place to be. Thanks again!
This was so amazing! I’d actually thought about bows and got all of the supplies 2 years ago. In 2024 my granddaughter wanted bows. I’ll be making a bunch to sell (and gift) this weekend. I’m learning how to make greeting cards too. Your affirmation that these two really sell was just the boost that I needed. Thank you soooo much!😊
It would be nice to address the over 65 market. One thing I do know from experience now that I am over 65 is that most of us are trying to clear out our stash ... I strongly recommend that gifts be consumable in some way so they won't contribute to the to the overwhelming clutter.
the tote bag with velcro straps to fasten it onto grandma's walker is a big success--it is simply a fabric tote with zip across top edge to keep items from falling out, with velcro tabs at the top edge that are log enough to wrap around the top bar on the walker.
Happy New Year! Thank you so much for sharing and inspiring. As a matter of fact, I do some of your recommendations already. I upcycle old jeans and add various fabrics to create patches to make garments and different accessories. I crochet various projects such as scarves, hoods with scarves, shawls and collars for dogs. Thanks again!!! Respectfully
You are awesome!! You take all the intimidation out of business and offer such confidence in what a next step or direction could be! Thank you for your hard work and insights❤❤
I love how much research you have put into this video. Also, if you aren't aware, you have an amazing ASMR voice and somehow I found this video SOOO relaxing! Also, I didn't think about adding DIY cookie kits to my shop! I will get to work on that!
Hello I came across your channel I am over over 60 years old and I love the way you explain the different forms of crocheting and knitting and your knitting machines, not many people know about them I have over six of them in different gauges end makers and I do love you see my machines thank you for sharing all your insights
New subscriber 🎉🎉🎉🎉 Very cool data😊 Thank you and I appreciate you sharing this info. I have a flea market booth and I’m always trying to stand out from the other vendors, this information will come in handy.
I love your passion for data and I love how your ideas has my head spinning and I want to dive into all of them, but hopefully I can narrow it down and just try one for now❤
Hola cariño. Soy cubana y resido en Mallorca. Aquí, es prácticamente imposible vender crochet pero tu video me ha llenado de optimismo. Recientemente compré una máquina de tejer para agilizar algunos de mis proyectos. Gracias, gracias, gracias. Mucha salud y bendiciones en el próximo año 2025.💯😘🥰😍🌺🌺🌺🌺
Where can you find unique diy kits to make beaded Christmas garland? I want to design my own eventually because I haven’t been able to find what I want in color and style.
I sell handmade cards and have included Make Your Own Card Kits this year and they were received well. They were made with a theme and I co ordinated the packaging so the creator could use all of the papers.
You are great! My first time watching. You shared quality, classy items and gave market statistics. New subscriber, I can't wait for more! Thank you!!!
I like the headwear one. I was looking for the old fashioned maid head covers that go from ear to ear and have ties. The Japanese call it Lolita style - not related to the book. But they are hard to find. The one I did find online sold out.
Definitely not a move to downgrade my life, if anything it’s an expansion of life. I’m now inspired to hire a driver. Also keep in mind wherever you go, there you are! 😊
Hi there, I just found you today and watched your 2025 video. May I ask how do you market yourself to sell? Only online? Do you do shows? This has been my problem I don’t know how to put myself out there. Any guidance you can give? Thanks.
I am done with handmade cards for reselling. I might have wasted my time opening a store. I have been at this for over 5 years. I have sold one Christmas card this year. Some of these stats are not real or some of us handmade artists are just fooling ourselves. I love your lamp. By the way, high-end stores use Temu. That little word got you a lot of traffic. Unless you did not tag it. Lol.
I’m sorry to hear you’ve had a tough year but it's about finding the right niche and a good marketing strategy. The stats are all real and linked in my blog.
After doing supplemental research, I think her stats are accurate and complete. As she mentioned, niche is truly important and also being willing to adjust and pivot along with trends and fads quickly to keep your momentum. If you are in the online marketplace, I think willingness and wherewithall to stay on top of the data is imperative. Also, I’d say, how are you marketing and what was your strategy there? Did you participate in Black Friday ahead of holiday seasonal efforts?
I received exactly two Christmas cards this year, when we used to get 30-40 a few decades ago. With social media, it’s just not a thing anymore. I’ve never gotten a Christmas card from someone born after 1985, except for cards made by children. I think kits for things children can make as gifts would be more saleable.
@@AprilFriday-de6vm That is true for you which is fair, but perhaps Christmas cards specifically are not a trending niche or the people in your circle are not the target audience. It is important to do research to see what niches do well for cards - weddings, inspirational sayings etc. Craft Kits are great in specifically painting, crochet and knitting niches for all ages.
WOW! I didn't expect this video to BLOW UP like it did everyone 🎉 Thanks so much for all of your lovely comments - I will definitely be responding to everyone ASAP. Thanks again and Happy Holidays ✨
You are a breath of fresh air! Your optimism & realistic sense of demand is needed in this current space.
Thanks so much ✨🤗
Thank you Sterling I stated making hat, turban, and hair bows. Finally some of my hats have sold. With your information I will continue in the direction of head ware. I am a soap maker needing a new product line. And I am a seamstress.
Again thank you I have submitted to your TH-cam channel.🌹
Of course ! And I'm so glad to hear you're finding success! 🤗✨
Art meets data! Love it, very clever❤ Lord knows many artists need that.
It is very helpful indeed ✨🧑🎨
I just bumped into you on YT. Interesting and inspiring. Your research is persuasive
Lovely! So glad you got some inspiration 🤗✨

Just found you. Lots of great ideas here. Thanks. I crochet/knit hats. Going to put my thinking cap on in personalizing them more.
So glad you got some inspiration ✨🤗
That lampshade 😭 🔥
More than likely, she using an LED bulb which will not heat up. It’s a beautiful shade.
Riiiight? It’s absolutely stunning!
@@Bre_Creatively Thanks so much! 🤗✨
@@joancook8454 Thanks so much!
Are you concerned the lamp being a fire hazard?- I'm using an LED light but thanks for your concern 😉
I live in a Senior community, so I would appreciate items that would appeal to the over 65 market if there is such a thing.
caps, scarves, mittens, knee/elbow caps, arm/leg warmers for winter and sunhats, small slingbags they can use for daily use to keep wallet etc in...
It would be nice to address the over 65 market. One thing I do know from experience now that I am over 65 is that most of us are trying to clear out our stash ... I strongly recommend that gifts be consumable in some way so they won't contribute to the to the overwhelming clutter.
That’s a great idea! I’ll have to research and share my insights soon ✨🤗
What things do the seniors in your community like or need? (Walker storage bags, shoulder covers, lap blankets, heating pads, etc.)

I like the headwear one. I was looking for the old fashioned maid head covers that go from ear to ear and have ties. The Japanese call it Lolita style - not related to the book. But they are hard to find. The one I did find online sold out.
