Girl people don’t just actually watch you … THEY LOVE YOU❤
I second this! ❤
I agree with you!
well can boys watch ?
@@jonatabaquero3624yes ofc! Crochet is for everyone 💕
Yes boys can watch why couldn’t boys watch?
I love these market videos! It’s honestly so interesting to hear from a vendor’s perspective. Also so proud of you for not undercutting yourself and knowing the worth of your hard work! I can’t wait to see how market #3 goes 🎉 #justiceforthemushieboys
Hahahaha thank you so much Jen!! You are the sweetest🥺❤️ mushie boys say thank you!
i felt so bad when you showed the lil guys that didn’t sell 😢 all of your work is so great. super inspiring too :)
lol she'll be fine they will sell trust me it's always at one market that they sell out for some reason coming from a vendor
Definitely don't shortchange yourself. I think your plushies are pretty reasonable. In price. Plus you have the fallback of putting them on your Etsy shop to find them a good home so it's not like you put all your chips on selling out at the markets you attend. I don't know how many markets you have planned for the holiday season but I bet your sales will increase when it gets closer to the "gift buying rush". And yes weather does play a factor in foot traffic but advertising for the event also comes into play. Don't lose heart. You can do this, girl.
Great video!!
I dunno if it's a good idea or not, but you could try focusing on making smaller/less expensive plushies for markets, but have a deal where if a customer spends like $15+ then they can be entered into a raffle to win one of your large plushies for free. That may encourage customers to buy more, and then you can spread the cost of the big plushie into the prices for your smaller ones. Feel free to ignore if it's a bad idea 😅
No I actually feel like that’s such a good idea. I definitely feel a raffle would make people buy more. And like every extra $10 spent over the 15 could be an extra ticket/name for the raffle. So the more they buy, the more likely they are to win the big plushie!
Unfortunately raffles are considered illegal gambling in many places. In the US they are often only allowed with a permit, for nonprofit organizations only.
Great idea!!!!
Thank you for being sooo transparent! It is greatly appreciated! I have my 2nd market on September 9th/10th and your market prep videos have been great info for myself who’s very new to selling handmade items.
Good luck
@@BellamyKamryn thank you 🧡
How did it went?
@@sanniorvokkithat market went really for me! Thanks for asking!
Do you have to do checks on everything before selling them in the market?
I love your videos, you've inspired me to crochet even though i don't have materials yet. At the moment, i am just binge watching your videos.
Awww! This is so sweet, Im so happy to hear that🥺❤️ excited for you to start crocheting!!
Thats soo crazy. I'm 14 years old and I want to start a small business on Insta with my crocheting. And I am REALLY shocked how cheap your crocheting is.8 Dollars for an octopus?! CRAZYYY. And the Turtels are soo cutee.❤
Very surprised about the cute mushy boys! Thank you for the insight on your 2nd market!
I don’t understand some of the comments here saying that her prices are high. The prices of the smaller pieces are actually priced lower than the usual. I myself makes and sale amigurumi plushies and I can tell you that I won’t price those hens at $10. Handcrafted items are never cheap, but not outrageously priced as well.
Mushy boys have never done well for me at any of my markets. It shocked me too, considering how well they seem to do for others.
On Saturday I was on a flea market at the village next to ours and I took some of my crochet plushies with me. I only did it „just for fun“, because I had no idea if anyone would buy anything. I was very surprised that I sold some of my crochet plushied. You know what sold best? Mini Octopi made by your pattern!🥰 But if I do a market again, I will also price up, because I sold them a little too cheap.
Thank you so much for your inspiring videos!🥰
How much did you sell them for?

Easily the best TH-camr to watch as I crochet! Love all your videos and really proud of your growth and not undercutting yourself, the hardwork that you put in on crocheting these cute plushies is definitely worth the price!!

Love your videos and always look for them to appear. Your energy and talent are awesome. I love all of your plushies. You are a great inspiration ❤
I table in San Diego and my chickens literally sold out 😂 you can never tell what is going to do good where. It’s a mystery
Yaaayy!!! I'm literally so happy to watch the market prep video❤❤❤
Awww yayay!!❤️ tysm!
WE LOVE YOU GENNA!!!!
I love to watch your videos and I hope that I can crotchet like you when I'm older you are the best crotchet artist that I have ever seen 🤩😀
I just started crocheting and came across your videos! you definitely motivated me to keep it up and maybe I can start selling as well! Thank you girl, Keep it up!
The set up is so cute 🥰 I love the chickens!!
Craft shows anywhere are always unpredictable. Your items look amazing. Hope you register to sell your items at Christmas shows in your area.
The opossum is so adorable
The last market we did was over 90 degrees in Indiana. It was a two day event. And on Friday we sat outside and didn't sell anything. Heat definitely keeps people from coming and buying things. Saturday it wasn't as hot, but we did eventually make some sales.
I'm so sorry for the things that didn't sell.but we still love and support you Genna
yall get upp!! the queen has postedd!!
very very real and raw experience of markets, love this!! thank you❤❤ congratulations on all your success 🥰
Wow! I have lots to say:
1. I LOVE WATCHING YOU AND YOU INSPIRE ME SOOOO MUCH GENNA!
2. I do have to agree last market I made a point to stock up on leggy froggies but NONE sold when last market I sold out!
3. Your stuff is all so cute!
4. Last market my triceratops didn’t sell as much either!
best booth, killing it!!!🎉
Can't wait to watch it! Love love love ur videos ❤❤❤❤

Me be like i only have a bit to go into your video and then i saw crochet bay genna uploaded:... and i was so happy💙💙
Aww!! too sweet🥺❤️
I think you did pretty good. So surprised that the opossums and mushy boys didn't sell. Thanks for sharing Genna.
I'm always curious about this kind of stuff, I just find it so fascinating ❤
Hi!! Congrats on ur market!! I was looking forward to watch and see what knew creations u made!! 😀😀😀
Thank you for sharing all your market info. Heading to Etsy right now! Have a wonderful week and happy knitting 😊🧵🪡🤗🤩
You are getting me really inspired😊😊😊😊
I love how honest and transparent you are about your business and everything that goes into it. You inspired me to prep and sign up for my first market in October!
Oh my goodness, you’re soooo adorable & so are your plushies!!! I’m sure the shopper’s were mainly concert goers, so you’ll do much better on Etsy & your next market day! Thanks for sharing!!! HUGS!!!❤❤❤
Your prices are actually very reasonable! 😊 and your products are so cute!!
This video is nice to see 😊 as a beginner i’m really interested in getting into things like this eventually! thanks for all the info, great work!
Congrats on the market - all the plushies are ADORABLE! this was so helpful!! thanks for the encouragement at the end lol. also love the 7 way tie - u -
Excited to crochet while watching this 😊
Your account is my go to when I want to watch something while crocheting!
and YES you should be proud of yourself xx
love your hair btw and your crocheting
Hi Genna!!👋 Your videos are great love watching them! I have been crocheting for years and a "little" 😉 older than u...being my age I didn't think I could really start a small business but watching u and Katie being creative has inspired me to go for it!!❤ Your prices are exactly what I would charge, I find your prices to be extremely fair and less than other designers charge. Because I love u so much I did want to throw it out there that the O in opossum is silent. My dad was a zookeeper for 13 years so I am sure the O is silent...lol...unless it varies depending on where u live in the country?! Just thought of that. Anyway THANKS for being so transparent and sharing ur talents with us!!😊
I saw this video and couldn't wait to finish school so I could watch it! Congrats!
Hi! My first market is in about a week! I'm so excited and nervous! These market videos have been my motivation to keep on crocheting! Love ya! Bye❤❤❤❤❤❤
hi, Penny! how did the market go?
My first market is on September 23rd and I am so excited but also so nervous. Your videos have been a huge help!
hi! how did you find a market? i don’t know where to find a market
I love watching your market videos 🥹 but off topic your skin looks AMAZING
this helps yes! I just made three mushroom bois this morning!! (Not velvet just 4 ply yarns)
It really does depend on the weather and what market you go to. I go to one that is more upscale and at night that I have made up to $700 in a night and another more local farmers market that I average about $200 in sales and its in the morning/afternoon when it's hot
You should put a box and paper and pencils and ask people for feedback and ideas of what ti sell
OMG this video was AMAZING 🤩🤩🤩I had so much fun watching it. I'm currently making another strawberry turtle with your pattern!
love your channel!! You're awesome and a vibe :D
I feel like I’m so early also amazing job I love all of your work you go girl 😌
Thank you for this Genna!!! It was super helpful, im going to be doing my own market soon and i now know to lower the price of the turtles a bit, because even the small ones take a while. They end up being so expensive!!! I love all your videos, your such an inspiration, thanks 😁 EDIT: i think the only reason some of those popular things didn't sell is because people dont get how hard it is to make the things us crocheters make, or how time consuming it really is😓
I love your videos you inspired me to start crocheting
I love how honest you are about how the market went, what sold and did not. I was super surprised that everyone kept saying bees sold very well, but I eneded up selling 15 bees at my last market :o I expected leggy frogs to sell that well (sold about 7), and chunky mushrooms (sold just 1) xD Crazy how different sales are over the world/country :P
Love all your items. Some of the prices are too high. Turtles are adorable. Thanks for sharing. Wishing you the best!
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaa I have been wanting all week yea😊
you are doing great. love watching your videos. I know that i saw another crafter professional say she weighs the yarn. So you use scales for like mail or food. weigh yarn before using without label, then after you crochet that project, weigh that same skein of yarn. this helps you know your cost by weight to better help you price things, especially since we can get yarn on sale, but i would keep your 'cost' per skein at regular price (even if you got it on sale which you can note in your finances to know you earned even more profit) but when you price the items, do it based on regular price for that yarn. I hope that is helpful. You are such a joy to watch and you are very talented. WHen you held up your "small child" size turtle which i call child-size turtle.. and hugged it, I was like, I'm 52yr old and I need that turtle~! So you are a good seller!
When you have projects left over from a market, it’s good to sell them on your online store, e specially if this is their second market that they didn’t sell at. People will buy them online for higher prices ❤
I rlly wanted to crochet because of u!
I love watching your videos. I Started recently and i've got a lot of ideas from you
PERRY!!! Id so buy him too!!
Hi I love your strawberry turtles and am 100% putting a jumbo one on my Christmas list
I love your videos so much and I can't wait to begin this process!!!!. What hooks do you recommend??❤
i love your market❤❤❤
I love your videos so much ❤
Those little chickens are so cute. My daughter would lose her mind if I made her one of those
Cute items. Those keychains are so big. Maybe re name them as bag charms. They may sell better. ijs 💕💕💕💕 great job.
What! I am shocked those mushy Bois didn't sell! 12$!? They are too cute! Is there a pattern available?
love perry!!! 😂😂
Wow I’m so shocked at what did and didn’t sell!
For my business I keep a budgeting book and a list of what I buy and sell so I suggest that ❤❤
I would love to see more clips of during the market if you can
If I was at that market I swear I would of bought like everything you make such cute plushies
I'm shook by the chickens and mushies
You’re literally my favorite person in the entire world and I LOVE when you post and when I’m feeling down I just watch your videos and they make me so happy. Your so funny and inspire me to crochet more. I have my first market coming up on September 24 and I am so scared. I entered to win the $150 on your instagram and it would mean the world to me if I win. I don’t know if you need video ideas or not but you should make a sweater for Callie and/or shay. ❤❤❤❤
I like your stuffed animals and this summer I’m gonna do it
Thanks for the great overview, ery informational. The O in opossum is silent. Possem . You go girl!
I love your works
You are so great.
Am from Africa and I crochet too😍
I'm getting ready for my first market that next week I'm excited but nervous
I was so happy to see the chickens 😂
My kids really love your chickens! I didn't see where the pattern is from
Aww thanks! oakandmarlo
I have my own business at mine and my parents house right now and my talents I have for making things for my business is I know how to crochet, loom knit, French knit, and make jewelry...from all the stuff I make, a lot of people have been buying from me in my neighborhood and right now my total of the money for my business is $609
But I love the sunflower turtle 😊
The chickens 🐔🐔 and opossums are my fav
Heheh thank you!❤️
@@crochetbygenna hi genna you’re the best TH-camr ever when is your next market because I want to come and see you I have a surprise for you. I love to crochet too and will give you a plushy.
I love the set up it looks so pretty and eye catching! May I ask where you got your stands from?
You can try loaf cat to sell its great!❤
I love all your plushies and videos and you inspire me so much to crochet more and try new things! Also, if you see this, may I ask what type of yarn you use?
As someone who does markets, youre never gonna get footage during😂 i help at my friends plant business and do farmers markets and it took the whole summer for us to remember to take pics during 😂 we have a check list for once we're set up. So its like a reminder 😂 but yea its too much fun to stop sometimes and take pics or vid especially if youre alone
Also! Keep bringing the big items! We had a $60 big plant that someone gobbled up on our 5th market in the first 5 mins 😂 sometimes there that one person whos just ready to throw down. Its always nice to meet that person.
I love thes videos kep going I'm far away but I'm watching
Id love to go to a market because I'm under selling my stuff so much at car boot sales
Quick question how do u wash any of ur plushies like soft yarn and acrylic? If u do wash them can u plz make a video about it if u can ty love watching ur videos keep it up!
Team Bernat Velvet Mallard forever!! 🦆🫡
You should try and do a bulldog since you’re in Mississippi and maybe an elephant or tiger depending on whether you’re closer to Alabama or Louisiana.
Thanks for sharing!
