starting my own business 🧸 preparing for shop launch (making stickers and prints + selling on etsy)
Hello everyone! ⛅️
I'm so excited to finally share this with you! My autumn project is finally coming to fruition. I filmed this video over a long period of time. I started designing washi tapes and notepads in September and slowly started adding new elements to my shop, like tote bags and keychains. I worked super hard to prepare this launch, but I'm also aware there is a high chance that things don't go perfectly according to plan. Hopefully I won't encounter too many complications when the shop open. But i'm excited for you to see all that I've made! Cheers to new beginnings 💕

I no longer sell on Etsy, and here is the link to my own sales website: www.meecoart.com/ The best part is that the prices of the products will be cheaper because now I don't have to pay extra fees to Etsy. Thank you all for your patience and continuous support! It means a lot to me and I hope the wait was worth it! ❤

This sort of life is my dream, I truly hope to be able to one day! This helps me get a feel for what to expect if I ever do get a career going from my art. Congratulations on making it successfully!

A few years ago, I had the same feelings as you when watching other shop opening videos. I had to wait a long time and try hard to open my own shop. I'm so happy to be able to do it today 😊🌼 Don't just dream, make it yours. Hope you have good luck with your art work. Best wishes to you!! ❤
It's been my dream too, to own a small bussines. And it feels wonderful seeing other people finally made their dreams come true. I'm rooting for you!

Oof I've been wanting to do the same thing with my art, but I get so anxious about contacting suppliers or... I don't even know where to begin or how to even make the products. I am in the process to learn, but I get so stressed easily. Still, you inspire me to continue. Your art is beautiful and awesome!

Your products are beautiful! Congratulations opening your business 🩷 I’ve been working on designs to start my own stationery business but I’m struggling with printing the right colours😱 what settings do you use for printing? X
@meecoart
7 ай бұрын
Yeah, I struggled with that part a lot too, so much sympathy for you 🤣 I have studied many video tutorials on color correction of prints to match the original. I think this depends on many factors, like the printer you are using, the ink, the paper to print on and your drawing. Therefore, each artist's settings will not be the same. I think the key is to find the material and setting that works for you. For me, I use Photoshop and change the Levels, Color Balance and Selective Color sections to suit my drawing. Hope these are helpful to you! 💕
Congratulations 🎉

Hi can you please share how you print your illustrations on tote bags? And also what software do you use for your illustrations?🥺 Thank you❤
You are so talented and i enjoy watching you draw but i dont know anything about art so im very curious and want to learn more, what type/style of drawing do you call the drawing you have of the girls/ladies? i really like them, they are so cute! if anyone knows please do educate me :) thank you :)
Sooo cute!!!❤❤ may I know which copy machine are you using?
will you consider to add sticker sheets as well?💖
OOoooh the tote bags are adorable, I'm getting one (or 3!)! May I ask where did you print your totes to get that soft but vibrant colour? I love how the size is smaller and chic, and I love the zipper because so few tote bags have them!

I printed it at a local factory near where I live and they're not very popular. That's right, I also prefer a tote bag with a zipper and I think you guys will like that too. That's why I ordered them made. I'm so glad to hear that you like my tote bags, it means a lot to me ♥ Hope you will get some tote bags you like in my shop and give them a new home!

Hello Meeco, also wanting me to create my own shop, I wondered if before creating your patterns for your washi tapes or notepads you needed to ask your community what it preferred between several copies for example, or if you just followed what you wanted to do 😊I just discovered your channel, so I could not see if you had undertaken things before creating your patterns. Congratulations anyway, it makes you want to buy
