Tbh I would never get tired of having a job packaging those cards
it can be a lot of fun! I really enjoy it.
Sunshining MJ nctzen 🥺
Same lol
feel free to package mine 🤣
I'm thinking it would be fun to package things 😁
Packaging is everything when receiving a order and I like that you hand package everything it makes ME want to place a order....purchasing from you VERY SPECIAL !!!✌🏽👍🏽... thank you for sharing!
awe, thank you for the nice compliment - that means a lot! :)
I enjoyed your helpful hints! This isn’t a complaint...just a suggestion.
To save time, have you considered doing prep work while watching TV? I noticed you spent a lot of time putting things in piles and rearranging them. You could:
...put your stickers on the boards and envelopes ahead of time...even getting family members involved
...write your personal notes ahead of time (leaving space for their name)
...have your washi tape cut and stuck to a plastic protector
LOVE ALL OF THESE TIPS! thank you ❤️
I was thinking exactly this. I loved watching this but seems like more money and time is spend on packaging and prepping the sale than the card itself.
Pre-do the envelopes, Make one side of the thank you cards delaminated/printable paper that way you can print the thank you side of the cards, Get a stamps for the "thank you", "do not bend" and "yay" on the envelopes or better yet, get the envelopes made this way from a packaging company.
I thought the same thing!!
@@Jessica-fb1px thought the same
Have an Etsy shop as well check it out!

This motivates me to start my own Etsy business :) seems so satesfying!
Honestly you totally should, very satisfying!
I do but I don’t know what to do
@@xevlilley same
Its really lovely to see people doing their own thing and succeeding.
I'm hopefully starting mine by the end of the month! I'm so looking forward to making everything and packing it all :)
Whoa. Handwritten thank you notes! Respect!
I think they can go a long way!
They do go a long way. It makes it more personal, makes an artist stand out more to the Client.
That was fun to watch! Love the packaging and the thank you card! And of course your cards ❤️👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
ChicHulaGirl awe, you are too sweet - thank you! 🙏🏼
This is so satisfying! I just recently started an Etsy shop a few months ago for handmade, personalized jewelry and this gives me so many ideas for packaging!
That’s amazing, congrats on opening! I’m glad you enjoyed the video! 😊
@Lilly Elizabeth what type of jewelry are you doing bc that’s what I was gonna do
I like how she stores her things so neatly so she would know exactly where to find them, unlike me so messy and just throw stuff everywhere.
LOL! You just need a system and then it's really easy!
We are the same 😂😂
this is not a hand-made but HEART-MADE!! :( you really have a beautiful and inspiring soul, I hope you the best luck :]
ps: subscribe to ur channel watching ur videos is going to be my therapy
Thank you for being so sweet, I really appreciate it! ❤️
You make it look easy. I would order something just to get the lovely packaging...lol.
Lisa Cain awe, I appreciate that - thank you!
Thoughtful and thorough operation you have going on there!
Thank you, I try!
@@bybrie 👍💖
I sell on Poshmark and I’m totally so happy with hand writing “Thank You Notes” in each and every packages.
I’m a fast shipper, so that makes me a POSH AMBASSADOR 💰 I love working from home 🙏🏾
Very cute packaging!!! Love your color palette 🖤🖤🖤
Thank you so much! :)
That was fun and calming to watch haha, thank you Brie for your video
Thank you for watching! :)
Wow love your packaging, I've been trying to find some ideas for my etsy shop as well. Since I make jewelry I try to make my packaging look professional and cute :)
Brianna Cabrera thank you, and that’s awesome! Would love to see your shop 😊
@@bybrie My etsy Shop is LovelyBriCharms, I'm new on etsy :)
@@briannacabrera6693 sooo cute! the cat necklaces are my favorite ❤️
Love your process! I like that you still include a handwritten note!
How nice - it looks like a little gift! Well done and inspiring. Thank you!
Moufflette thank you so much! I have fun doing it :)
I really like how planned and set up you are.
This has so much thought on every order! My heart is so happy! Wanting to have an Etsy shop soon!
Thank you so much! Good luck with starting! 😊
TREMENDOUS organization, I love it!
Thank you! 😁
Hi brie.
I like the aesthetic of your products and the packaging as well. Congrats.
I like how you package. I have a small shop as well just getting started. Thanks for some helpful ways to ensure safe shipping! - Camille
Awesome, I'm glad it could help in a little way!
Cami's Crafty Corner oooo what do u sell?
Hi Brie! New friend here! I really enjoyed this video. It's great to see what other shop owners do for their customers. Thanks for showing your process and what to look for when ordering. 😊
Hi Sondie 👋🏼 Thanks for watching the video! I agree, I love to see how other shops handle their orders!
Damn, I’ve got to step up my packaging game 😅 awesome video! Thanks for sharing 😄👍
Thank you so much for the nice compliment! 😊
Very sweetly packed ! Thank u for sharing your process
So nice of you to say, thank you ❤️
@@bybrie 💕❤
So motivational I want to start a business just watching this packaging video!
I’m impressed! You’re product and approach are opposite to mine so I admire your efficiency. My process uses 100% re-used packing materials, never new store-bought. I sell heavy pottery and dishes so the time spent wrapping can be an hour. And sourcing used bubble wrap and boxes takes time as well. But it’s worth it, I want to walk lightly. Actually, I do buy packing tape for the exterior box. Interior wrapping is tied with twine and fabric strips.
Thank you so much for this video and the Amazon links!! I'm another Etsy card shop and have been looking for ways to up my packaging. :)
That's great to hear!!
Enjoyed watching your studio vlog!!! More studio vlogs hopefully soon. 💗
Ahh, thank you - that means a lot! Yes, hopefully more to come soon 💕
I love the cards , i love the designs . I love the thank you card . Everything is cute!
Thank you!! 🤗
Loving the organisation girl!
thank you so much!
Packaging can be so relaxing ❤️❤️
I agree ♥️
This was so fun to watch!
Awee thank you bday twin! An oldie but a goodie!
This is really motivating, thank you. You also have some lovely things on your sites, you are very talented. I wish you continued success.
Crypto Gee17 thank you so much, I really appreciate it!
Love this video...very cute packaging!
thank you so much 🤗
What an awesome video! One day I'll have enough orders to do this like you do!
Thank you so much! Your channel looks amazing, I'm going to have to go on a little binge 🙂
Such an efficient production line you have got there! Hopefully mine will become like this over time. Love the designs too x
Thank you! Yes, having a system definitely helps time management and work flow, just have to find what works for you! 🙂
Love the workflow!
Suzie Yang thank you so much! Ever improving!
Really love your packaging, really professional!
Thank you so much, that means a lot!
Love your packaging super cute!!! Do you like Cannon Pixma for make cards? i bought mine I'm i feel is off colors :( pls let me know your experience, for I return it
hi there, thank you for the nice compliment! Most of my cards I have ordered through a local printer. However, for new designs I like to make the cards with the Canon Pixma Pro until I know if they are going to sell or not. I have been able to get accurate colors, but it was a LOT of trial and error. The thing that made the most difference for me was choosing the correct paper type in the print settings menu. Hope this helps and good luck!
Thank you very much, I appreciate your prompt response, and yes, I will try again and again and like you say, I think the trick is choosing the right paper.
@@bybrie hi..I just wanted to chime in and say that I am working with an Epson printer, but found this video to be a life saver when it comes to matching colors: th-cam.com/video/roWAfDfyCTA/w-d-xo.html
Puts the matching responsibility on the printer vs you figuring out the settings. It makes printing a breeze! Also thank you for the helpful video!
So neat & organized
love love love!!! very helpful and inspiring
Thank you so much!
Love this video! Thanks for the inspiration.
May I ask a question? Wondering after all the packaging is done, what the profit is? I'm researching on how to start my Etsy store, but I'm concerned with what the end profit will be after supplies, packaging and shipping. Any advice is appreciated!
There will always be a start up cost using this video as an example if you had to buy the printer, storage computer programs ECT. and to get started from there how pricing is figured out is pretty simple you divide the cost by the count so say the card stock she uses is 5 dollars a pack and there's 50 sheets per pac so divide cost of 5 dollars by the count of 50 it comes out to .10 so every peice of card stock she uses is ten cents towards the cards appear to use two sheets each. so every card made uses 20 cents in supplies plus glue and ink ECT. For simplicity sake let's say every product is 10 cents so you have two sheets for the card, the shipping box, the shipping label, the inner chipboard, the thank you note, business card, and it appeared there was a clear protective covering on the card. So that's 8 items used at ten cents a peice so it costs 80 cents plus enough to cushion the supplies like printer ink glue the washi tape ECT so round it up to a dollar used to make each card so she wants to profit 2 dollars from each card sold she can then add her cost of 1 dollar to that so in this scenario she would charge 3 dollars per card hope that makes sense its literally just sitting down and crunching numbers this applies to any type of bussiness
@KaraMeader said this really well!
It’s really a useful video for me as a reference for packing my orders☺️☺️💛Thank you for the good content!
Smile Studio that’s great to hear! thanks for watching and support! 🤍
I love this so much. I just started selling on Etsy two months ago! I paint custom pet portraits! I used to write handwritten notes on watercolour paper. But it was getting pricey. So I just bought thank you cards!
Marlymcgbart is my Etsy shop
I literally just subscribe now 🥺 Thank you for sharing these. Been wanting to buy those rigid mailers.
Fervy Grace you are very welcome, thanks for subscribing!
Omg love the packaging! Do you draw everything for these letters? Might order some
Hi Ella, thank you so much! I draw the greeting card designs in Adobe Illustrator. Hope this answers your question!
What.. what!!😱😱 Hand written thank u card for each n every buyer.. hats off ma'am... By da way love from India
Love your packaging style
barbie's craft thank you!! 👍🏼👌🏼
this was adorable
Great video, thanks for sharing! Do you make your own “Thank You Cards”?
Thanks for watching! I design them and have them printed at Vistaprint!
Your printer is amazing. A major need
Hi! Awesome video! Where do you buy your thank you stickers? Thanks!
Hi! Can you do a video on the shipping label setup? I’d love to get that printer and know how it works!
Emily Gillard hi Emily! That’s a great idea! I’ll put it on the list 👍🏼
So helpful! Thank you so much 💙
That makes me so happy to hear!
Very creative. I love it!
Thank you so much!
This video was great, thank you so much for sharing! I'm inspired. :)
yay, happy to hear that! 🙂 thanks for watching!
I've been thinking about getting rigid mailers for prints and such but am wanting to know what it's considered as when it gets sent. Is it considered as a small package instead of lettermail?
Totally! On Etsy when I purchase a USPS label, it's classified as "Package / Thick Envelope". Hope this helps!
Thank you for this informative video!
Also, do you print your own cards and postcards, or do you have them printed? I have a card line, but have them printed. I also box them in orders of 12. So sending a box out (plus a free bonus gift, notebook and pen set and a bookmark), it's pricey to mail. Just trying to find ways around the high price of postage.
very thoughtful packaging👏💖
London LiketheBridge thank you, I try!
Now they will have to, Macy's is about to get into the crafters market!!
Awesome! Thank you for sharing ❤
RJ Martinez thank you for watching! ✌🏼
I love this vlog! 💕 It's very helpful. Reminds me of Katnipp. You guys are seriously amazing.
*video lol
omg thank you so much - that is literally the best compliment I could ever get... I LOVE Katnipp! 😍
@@bybrie You really are! Excited for new content! 💕💕💕
Nice video! Love your Thank you cards :)
thank you so much! :)
Love how you package these!
It seems like quite a big expense though? All the little extras add up? I’d love to add more to my packaging but it takes up a huge portion of profit.
Thank you for the nice compliment! There is an expense, but that expense add values to the packaging which I value. There is still a profit to be made, so I think it's a win-win.
Where do you get your Thank you and Yay! stickers? I love that font.
I designed them myself and have them printed at a local printer 👌🏼
i love your videos!!!
CactusGaming thank you so much! 😍
Very thoroughly and nicely done! May I ask how many cards the white mailers will hold pls?
Thank you so much! The mailer holds about up to 5-6 cards (without a backing card).
Hey, I'm shipping stickers and plan on using rigid mailers since I don't want them to bend. How much did you pay for shipping?
Hi, that's awesome to hear! Shipping prices will vary depending on location, but I have Etsy calculate the shipping costs. You can do this in your listing settings. There's an option to have Etsy calculate shipping based on the weight and dimensions of your package.
Such a nice and fun video keep making ...lots of love ❤️
Thank you so much! ❤️
I LOVE the quality of your thank you post cards. Are you printing those yourself?
PaperPunkGrl thank you so much!! I get them printed at vistaprint 😊
Hi, amazing video first of all :) Also, do you use the pixma 100 for printing the cards or for other works? Thanks :)
hi there, and thank you for the nice compliment! I primarily use my pixma pro 100 to create my stickers for my shop. I will occasionally use the pixma pro for cards when I am testing out a new design and I don't want to have to commit to a lot of inventory in case it doesn't sell as well as I hoped!
@@bybrie thanks alot for the fast reply 😁
Thank you for your video. Does the post office charge extra for having the do not bend stickers on the package? And what does it usually cost to mail one card out to addresses in the US in the mailers you use? Thanks for your time!
Thanks for watching! No, the post office does not charge extra when you have do not bend stickers. These packages vary in price but have an average of $3.50. Hope this helps!
by brie thank you so much for your response! I’m subscribing to your channel!
Hi Brie! Idk if you mentioned before but where do you get the boxes that you keep your cards/inventory in?
The cardboard?
hello! I actually got them from amazon :) here's the link: amzn.to/2G1wwgS
Fantastic video....where did you get the storage boxes for your lovely cards?
thank you so much! they are from amazon :)
@@bybrie I have to say thank you for doing the video I have been making jewellery for 6years now and I still learn so much from videos like yours it was very inspiring and helpful. Im not good with tech or else I would show you how you helped me.... thanks again girl best of luck to you in all things graphic. ✌
You packaging is very beautiful ❤️
Where do i get the cards from the ines you ship the ones that they ordered??
looks beautiful! i saw you also have a serious printer, you print everything at home? what printer do you use? also - i love using stamps, i think you can make a do not bend one and it will save you some time :) beautiful i also liked the way you organized every product, very inspiring!
Thank you so much! I use a Canon Pixma Pro-100: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0095F5BCS/ref=as_li_qf_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=shopbybrie-20&creative=9325&linkCode=as2&creativeASIN=B0095F5BCS&linkId=8579ab1c45ecf5d183900c8d057b68f9 Stamps is a great idea!
thanks for sharing!
I love your work 😍🥰
Tonckka thank you so much!! 😊
Excellent video... really enjoyed this...
... but I'm confused on one thing... at first you say you're getting the mailer
and you also get a backing board... but I noticed when you picked up your orders
it also has a backing board already in it...Right? So do you need 2 backing boards?
Thank you for the nice compliment! The rigid mailer is just that, a rigid mailer. There is not a separate backing board that comes with it. You could probably get away without using a backing board, but I like to play it safe.
@@bybrie
I agree!!!
Where did you get those boxes for the cards? ❤️ looks perfect for the purpose
Alexandra Shirinkina hi Alexandra! They are from amazon!
Hey Brie, a question. when you get order from etsy, do you send the artwork as soon as they order or is it like Pre Order system so you send them all together in one time?
Hello! I allow myself 1-3 business days for orders to be shipped out. I like to ship them within 1-2 business days but sometimes a third day is needed, so it's nice to have the cushion. Hope this answers your question!
This is super cute! I like how careful you are, only thing I’ll suggest it’s that I think you are using way too much paper that’s probably gonna be on a trash can, an so the plastic bag can be replaced for a paper one?
Just random thoughts, great video!
Hello! Thanks for the comment. The reason that I use the plastic bag is so that if the packaged gets wet, the card is protected. If I was going to switch, I would just get rid of the plastic bag completely, but the card would be at risk of being damaged.
Where do you get those open top bins you have your cards stored in?
They are from amazon!
How do you plan to scale and keep the handmade personalization with every order?
If there's a point where I am not able to hand write each thank you note, I will include a thank you note with the message printed on the card. Then, I can either personalize by adding their name to the note or omit all together.
What number do u put for “ height “ in the etsy label dimensions?! Im just starting out :)
This is such a nice calming video, I hope I can get to do that too in the future.. any tips on how to get started on etsy?
mina hey just get started! I think it’s such a big mental hurdle and once you start you get the momentum going :)
@@bybrie Thank you so much Brie! I'll do my best :)
mina hey you’ve got this 💪🏼
Thank you for this video!
thank you for watching!
where did you get the thankyou cards & how do you design your own! thx 💓
hello! I have them printed online at vistaprint.com!
Thanks for sharing . Where did you have your thank you cards made at ?
You're welcome! Thank you cards are printed at Vistaprint.
@@bybrie thanks for the reply :)
So nice✨
thank you ❤️
I was wondering if you had to print out shipping labels from Etsy? I don’t have a printer and I’m using Royal Mail to ship my things
Jibooty_army hmm, I don’t really know what Royal Mail is, sorry! The “printer” you see me using for the labels is called a thermal printer and doesn’t use ink, which is nice! You aren’t required to purchase shipping labels through Etsy, but if you do, you get a discount.
Could you make a video on how you design your cards ?
that's a good idea for a video, yes!
Have you had any issues shipping with the post office on this size envelope?
no, I have not!
very nice and well put together video! do you make your own cards as well?
Thank you! I actually have them printed locally!
Same here I have started my Etsy shop but I don't know how to get sale hope that in future will do something 🥰
Shabd Priya yes, good luck!! 😊
@@bybrie thanku so much 🥰
what is the average shipping cost per package on these types of mailers? I am venturing into a similar business model and cant seem to find a very cost effective solution for shipping
hello! To ship out these cards via USPS the shipping is close to ~$3.00 (with Etsy shipping discounts). Of course, every order is different, but I'd say that's pretty average for a 3oz package with dimensions of 8x6x1.
Do you have a video on how to print cards?
I do not! However, I don't actually print these cards (just my stickers, which you can see in my other vlogs). Thanks for watching!
