Have you thought about limiting the amount of orders you take to potentially help with burnout? You put so much work into every step and it's very impressive but it's also important to find a schedule that works long term! I feel so bad that you have to stay up so late 😭 Take care! 💕
Thank you so much for your kind words
Always good to build in time for Thea’s moments don’t forget! That way you have the option to send out people’s stuff early if it’s done but if you fall behind a bit because of life thay can go out just on time! ❤
Im sure filming it takes up the majority of the time...
I’m sooo glad you use protective gear for your resin- I ruined my lungs not being careful enough- ruined as in I’m completely disabled. I had no idea just breathing the leftover fumes could do this- so to anyone reading this. Enjoy your lovely crafts but be careful to protect yourself. It’s not worth ruining the rest of your life over.
Can we all appreciate how hard she works on everything she does. I also can’t be the only one who is really inspired by Tammy. Before watching her I had never picked up a piece of clay, now I’m obsessed with sculpting mini ghosts. One day I would also like to start a small business too.
Not trying to be cringe.
That’s not cringe, that’s inspiring 💜
She inspired me to. I started making cute cookie earrings
nah
girl inspired me to sculpt: If i never knew Tammy i probably wouldn’t know clay was this fun. Now, i sculpt EVERY DAY. She inspired me to have a whole ass life routine💀💅🏼
I think it’s okay to grind once in a while in order to reach your goals - that’s why it isn’t easy to rise above and succeed! But if it’s causing burnouts on a frequent basis, then it totally isn’t worth one’s wellbeing. It’s good you’re being mindful about it, Tammy ❤️ We all hope you stay hydrated and get some rest 🧃✨💙
quick tip, even if you process things faster after school is done. leave it at 2-3 weeks. it's always better to be suprised with an order earlier than that you have to delay things and communicate it. especially since there are also a good chunk of things out of your control so a buffer is nice
that's something I didn't think about yet, interesting idea
I'm amazed that you're able to be so consistent in the sculpting across all of those pieces, if I were to attempt something like that I feel like mine would be all over the place.
This is so valuable to me. I faced a mini burnout because I thought I needed to do every little thing myself. Outsource whatever you can - label printers, using a stamp, order stickers, etc.
✨🌷🌸Your work is so SWEET, Uncomfy! And, I’m sure people think it’s worth the wait. That tray FULL of all your little, finished characters was so colourful and cheery.🌸🌷✨
oh i can't say how much i love your vlog as an self employe artist too.
You make me confortable and cozy and paceful at the same time.
i love to create my creation while loking at your videos
Uncomfy, you need the &co to be able to continue your beautiful work. I know the 5 a.m. is a popular clickbait routine (that I see as self-torture) - yours is different and more serious, since you actually had to get up that early and work basically nonstop for days. You can only work so much. There's a reason working hours exist. You don't have to do every single thing yourself.
There's so much in this video alone that you could automate and stop doing, without losing quality. For instance: While the thank you cards and stickers are beautiful, there's no need for you to attach every single sticker by hand to the card. Save your wrists. How many orders are those - how many attaching of stickers? I know I'd be happy with just a card or if the sticker was loose in the envelope.
Keychains - just order them finished in the right length.
Envelopes, boxes - if you stamp or decorate by hand, print instead.
Stickers and stationery - can you automate the whole process so that these are ordered from somewhere else?
You can't do every single thing yourself when your business is this big, nor should you. Please hire some help, but maybe first, a business advisor who can go through the different steps with you and map out what needs to change? It doesn't matter that you technichally still can do everything yourself (if you don't sleep) - don't be afraid to scale up now and don't work yourself to death. And yes I'm a small business owner too and worked too hard (and in the wrong ways) for too long.
I had this happen to me with a cookie business that I had. They were works of art and no one could do what I was doing (meaning I couldn’t just hire someone to duplicate what I was doing- I tried a couple times) plus all the special touches- like she is adding which is making everything so special but also adding to the time and effort ie the packaging and thank you notes etc. I thought I could continue on and I had people like my son and husband helping where they could but like you said, eventually I did burn out- people wanted what I was doing and I raised the price and tried to figure out how to do things more efficiently but I couldn’t stop long enough while in the middle of working to do it- thus the need for a business advisor. Looking back I wish I would have gotten one and unfortunately I think the same is going to happen to uncomfy if she doesn’t figure out some shortcuts (at least with her product it’s not perishable- that was an additional difficulty for me)
@@silvergirl7810 Oh yes, I've never thought of your kind of scenario before where the actual items you're making create stress in themselves because they're perishable. Can I ask what you're doing now? Have you found a way to keep creating?
I love your videos so much. I've only been watching you for 2 days and you have inspired me so much within just those two days! Please continue to make such wonderful videos and have an awesome week further =)
Wow, watching this video was truly mesmerizing! Seeing all the incredible handiwork and dedication that goes into creating these beautiful works of art was truly inspiring. It's amazing to see the level of detail and care that goes into each piece, and I have so much respect for the amount of time and effort that is put into every single creation.
Thank you for sharing this incredible video with us, and for giving us a glimpse into your life as an artist.
You work so so hard and it really shows and it shows how much care and love you put into each piece ❤ also thank you for promoting safe resin work with the proper safety needed as resin is so dangerous and it scares me when I see people using resin without a respirator 😢
I can’t believe you do your business while still in school! Impressive!
Thank you for always being realistic with us 🫶🏻
Seeing how much work you put into your business while also striving to better yourself is such an intimate thing. Thank you for taking the time to share your growth and dedication while also helping to inspire others to achieve their dreams too. You are loved Tammy!
I'm so grateful for lovely fellow artists like yourself!! Thank you for making this video. Indeed it brought me much comfort and peace, & it made me so happy for you! Love your workspace :3 Very inspiring. Striving to find a perf way I can become a stay at home artist/writer soon as well💕☺️ God bless your beautiful artsy heart✨🔥
It’s truly amazing how many orders you do in a batch. That seems like a lot of work but it’s super satisfying to see them all together. Do you sculpt a certain amount of orders at a time? Like one week worth of orders? Hope you’re having time to take care of yourself too! 😊 Always enjoy your videos!
I'm such a fan of your work, its all so beautiful. You've actually inspired me to start making little figurines and more complex designs with clay!
As someone who actively searching for an inspiration and how to start a business myself, I stumbled across your channel. I just want to say that I adore the effort that you put into your artwork, they are soo cutee >.
Thank you for all your hard work, your videos are such a joy to watch! I hope you can have an easier schedule and take care of yourself too
Thank you for these videos! You are truly inspiring and makes me feel like I will be okay with my art as long as I keep going too! ❣️
yay! so glad you caught up hopefully you can get some rest!!
Thank you for another cosy vlog.
I find watching you very comforting.
Your self care is inspiring. I just went to care for my teeth and gums before commenting. Now I am going to have some comfy warm water. (It may not work for everyone, but, it relaxes me and helps me sleep. )
You are so amazing with all the work you do!! I hope Mr. Uncomfy and you are doing well!!
Everything is SO CUTE. Oh my god. I appreciate your hard work.
I absolutely love what your doing. Beautiful art work. Congratulations.
Another vlog in same week! We spoilt. You’re working so hard Tammy look after yourself x
Love your VLOGS sm, your whole vibe and your video style !!! Your so underrated.
You are Soo inspiring and I see you put your heart and soul into everything you do and create. Your art is beautiful.Please take care of yourself. I know when I get too tired Everything seems even more over whelming.
One day at a time😊.Happy Easter Tammy and God bless you.
Absolutely amazing! I'm so happy that you get to do what you love + make money out of it!
omg this vlog felt like it was 5 mins. I was shocked when it ended! I truly enjoy watching your vlogs as they're inspirational and veeerryy comfy for me :)
Your videos are comfort videos for me
This is what I want to do, I want to be an artist selling my art to people who want it. I want to be my own boss and even though I have almost non existent art skills if I work hard enough I’ll get there. I don’t care how hard I have to work I wanna do it these types of videos bring me so much motivation
It is so calming listening to you and music .❤
Lovely, thank you for your vlogs, they're very calming. I listen to them while animating :)
I just found your channel. I really like your style of filming and your videos feel so soothing.
I love your work ethic . You have inspired me!
You are such an inspiration!
Amazing! All of the pieces are so cute! I need one of the orange fishies! Keep up the great work!
4:20 oh my she looks like a fairy or elf. More power to your business and stay magical.
Tammy you are doing great! The amount of energy and love you are putting is such a great example and inspiration. Thank you for this kind of dedication. And take care of yourself, bit by bit :hug:
You literally are my #1 inspirer (not sure if that’s a word 😂). I want to order from you but it’s too expensive and I don’t have enough money, so I make similar charms, and every time I look at them I think of you. :) thanks 🎉🎉🎉
the music at the beginning of this video is so soothing lol. you work so hard and im so rooting for you tammy! always
such a great way to start my weekend, with one of your vids! love the artwork! :)
I love these little blogs 🥰
From one creator to another, i totally understand how much work goes in to making items. Keep up the great and beautiful work you do!
best video to end stressful day thank you!
You´re so productive! I couldn´t wake up early in the morning to sculpt, I´m always procastrinating so much >_
Love that you're watching Gilmore girls while you work!
You actually inspire me so much and someday i will buy from you once i get employed !
I love the meditation music!!!😍
your work is amazing
Your art is adorable 💝
Hopefully this isn’t everyday of the week. I can see working all day to get things done but you’ve also built a business and now it’s growing. I think if you mentioned how much you made in that one day it would help others see how worth while it is. Just started to watch your channel and I’m super impressed. As a watercolor artist I can relate to wanting the personal touch on each order. Glad to see you have a selfcare plan. 🙏🏻much love ❤
That's so cool and I'm really happy for you hope you sold out everything, Liked the vid and beautiful as always btw.
I just found you on TH-cam and you really inspire me to start making art again
the pieces look cute all jumbled up together in the tub🙂
Aside from your beautiful work. I really love you and your content. ❤ totally getting a keychain but im sooooo confuse which one to get! I want them all
Have never clicked on a thumbnail so quickly ! I love your videos :)
Amazing work keep doing what you doing
I love your content. Keep going forward 🩵
So adorable 🥺🥺
Rewatching all of your videos
Your only one person, you work hard, that will have to be good enough.❤
Hey uncomfy, the care of sleep tablets you may want to just check if you can take ashwaganda year round.
wow im actually early lmao! love the cozy vibe ur vids bring me ^^ ♡
Love your videos 💝
because of you I've decided to start selling some of my pieces & one day make a business from it!
Your work is literally so good! I loved all the designs and am feeling really inspired from them to make my own arts!
If you dont mind can you help clear my doubt? Instead of resin can I use varnish and cure them?
Thank you!🤍🤍
i like your videos as they are sorta asmr-ish. Very comforting as you intended. Just discovered you a few months ago. Just an fyi, there does not seem to be enough time to read your text comments on your videos. By the time I take in your lovely video, there's not enough time to read all of your text before it changes. I thought you might want to know as you seem like a beautiful perfectionist which I love so much.
lovely ❤
OMG is that a goldfish with an orange on its head. I need one ❤❤❤
What is the song at 8:10 called? its so peaceful
Unreal Uncomfy 🙃
I love your videos! I wanted to say though the curing with UV resin gives off fumes for 24 hours after they're glazed so if you have a balcony or somewhere closed off (box/oven/etc) to keep them in after you glaze them it's even better for your health and for Mr uncomfy and the cats (: I have a cat and worry about my own health os i didn't start glazing until i got a mini fume hood or could do all of it outside
You're so productive! I would be useless at 5am haha 😂😂
I am a huge fan of your work :) It greatly inspires me to make clay and hopefully start a small business just like you one day (trying not to cringe at this message lol-)
Hello , I am a new subscriber and I am happy to come across your channel . I love , love love your work . I am blind but aside from that I’ve always loved clay work and all art I think I was born with smart and crafts as my forever passions. Unfortunately, I lost my Sight And it’s a good feeling to not b able to craft now unless more miracles happens with my eyes and body . 👀 If you have a site and a list of your prices please let me know. I will do my best to watch more of your videos this coming week .:) your style and work areas are so so so lovely . ❤ such cozy and all relaxation! I think a set up as yours would heal me faster than drs . ❤
I love clay
Cute. Where do you have your little boxes made?
You are so beautiful and ethereal ❤
Good stuff. Just wondering if there is any way you could make your packaging more secure? I get very anxious seeing the way it is wrapped without any bubble wrap or protective cover, just brown paper. What if it gets damaged during delivery?
Uncomfy, can you show us how you sand your peices pls?
Have you made any zebras , butterflies and or ❤GUIDE Dogs or any Dogs 🐕? Hearts ? ❤ ❤❤❤
You are the greatest artist I have ever seen online.
What clay you use? i use fimo. I love your channel and ypur works❤
The fishy’s are so cute and shiny
Your art and commitment always inspires me! Thanks for being real, amazing and of course for another wonderful video (^_^)
You look like a beautiful fairy
Where is your diffuser from? The blackish one
You should make pencil tops ps I love your videos🙂
I think we have the same wrist straps!
What are the Wrist Guards you were wearing during packaging?
Congrats on the hard work! The effort paid off :) How did you do to calculate costs of shipping? I'm interested because your pieces might be small, and I am thinking how many pieces make it worth it financially for you. It's not out of curiosity, but a real question from a very recent CEO feeling inspire by your video. Thanks in advance for the kindness and the comfort :))
Oh! Were you able to update your tasks? It's difficult to estimate how much time something like this can take, indeed! Best wishes from this side.
I noticed you just threw the cat in the UV after glazing it 😂, does it not stick to the machine after it cures? I want to try and use UV resin, but I'm not sure how to go about doing it cause I'm scared of it curing and sticking to the machine. Do you glaze the top and then after it cures, paint the bottom and stick it back in to cure?
Hi 👋 do you have to back polymer clay or is it a faster alternative?
I meant bake not back. But do you" HAVE" to bake it?
Your channel is soooo so pleasing to watch. Would you consider making magnets? (If you don’t already)
OK. I'm looking for the Picasa pens you have. I need to find a point tysm
I admire sailors who keep watch every 20 minutes throughout everynight of a solo Atlantic crossing. It seems nearly impossible, but with radar assists it can be done. Frequently I wake for specific reasons, but at other times, I can't really figure out why my appartment is rattling off the hook.
❤
