hello! I'm Alessia and I make happy ceramics :)
how much I REALLY make at a 3 day art market - Finders Keepers Melbourne studio vlog
Hi angels!
I'm uploading this vid from South Korea currently which feels so crazy to write! I'm on holiday for the next week and a bit - which feels as though it's come at a good time considering how crazy October has been for me!
This vid was all about my trip to Melbourne for Finders Keepers, how the market really went and I also chat with you guys about how much I made, how expensive it really is to be a part of and all that good stuff!
I did just want to make a note that discussing finances is always going to be a sensitive topic - I've never disclosed how much I've made from one of these events before and as a full time artist, ensuring that I'm actually making enough money to survive is important of course. A LOT of work goes into preparing enough stock for a 3 day interstate market, so naturally the financial side of things is important from that aspect too! I hope these numbers can help you out if you've been thinking about doing something similar, but please take them with a grain of salt - I had friends at this event that made more than double what I did and other friends who didn't make half of what I did. Everyone is on their own journey with their business and that's the most important thing to remember ⭐️
I am so grateful that I get to do what I do for a living and I wanted to seriously extend my thanks to anyone who managed to pop by and say hello or purchased something 🥹💕
Sending so much love,
Alessia xx

hi my loves! how have you been? I hope you have been enjoying this change of seasons and making time for yourself 🌟 I've been in chaos mode trying to get everything ready for all of my markets I've got coming up and also just moved house into my very own apartment! But things are feeling so much more settled now after the move and I'm just about to head down to Melbourne for Finders Keepers to ...

Thank you Alessia for sharing all your numbers and logistics, it is really appreciated of running a ceramics business! I am just starting out and it is so hard to find real numbers for people who want to make this their profession, especially in Australia so keep up the good work! I hope I can meet you at a market someday!
Awesome video, thank you for being so open about your income amd expensed it is very much appreciated. I would love some information on how you freight your stock ahead of time. Also where is it you are travelling from to go to these interstate markets? I'm in Perth and wondering if interstate markets might be something for me to consider.
@@janesshoeboxstudio5829 you’re so welcome! 💗 I’ve tried a few different methods - from bringing things in checked luggage on the plane, to using Pack n Send to ship my pieces to a store in Melbourne and pick them up when I get there, to organising my own courier to get ceramics shipped to friends houses in Melbourne. There’s lots of different options! Depending on the market you’re doing they might also offer a courier service that will collect the pieces in a crate from your house/studio and then deliver to your stall at the market (I know they offer this for most of the big trade shows in Aus!) I’d be happy to make a more in depth video at some stage about it I’m just not sure if it’s too niche of a topic haha
Would love to know more about how you transport your stock between states :) One day I would like to try having my own stall so this is very useful, Thankyou. Also, A breakdown of the sydney finders keepers would be interesting as well if you feel comfortable. Lovely work!
@@Chloe-zr9lk thanks so much lovely! 💗 I’ll try to include some info all about shipping my stock in the next video for Sydney finders keepers!
I so enjoy watching your videos. They’re just the right length for my attention span 😂 the style and edit is so cute too. Do you feel like sharing your camera set up? ❤
@@HayleyMills-n1j aw thank you so much! I am definitely no tech geek when it comes to cameras my set up is soooo basic haha and I only ever shoot in auto mode. I have the camera, mic and tripod I use linked in the bio of my vid if you want to check it out!🫶 But honestly most of the time I just use the mic the camera came with cause I’m lazy 😂
Thank you sharing your stats I always wanted to know how much it is to have a stall and the revenue artists have at these markets! Definitely would love to see and know how sydney market goes being closer to xmas xxxx
@@chantalleonhardt aw thank you for your sweet comment angel 💗 it’s so tricky finding the line to tread between transparency and feeling like it’s an invasion of privacy hey but I really thought it would be helpful for people that haven’t done it before, especially because when I started doing these large scale markets I had nothing to go off either. I’ll definitely try to do the same for Sydney! 💗
@ for real!! I try to be transparent too but then I’m also not quite confident yet to share fine details ahah! I do markets every months/biweekly so I know how much work a big would be, I’ll keep my eyes peeled for Sydney if you end up documenting 👀
loved this!! 💖
@@tasmajespersen5403 thank you so much lovely! 😭💗
I love the way you edit your videos
@@IhssanKelouch aw omg thank you so much haha I feel like my editing is so basic in my eyes so I really appreciate it 🙏🏻💗😭
loved this breakdown and insight into everything behind the scenes! congrats on a great market! 💫❤️
@@indyapearceart aw thank you angel as always! 😭💗
You should do art prints!
ooh maybe I should 🤭
Not a pottery question, but where’s your sofa from? I’ve been looking for one like that for ages 😂
haha I actually got it for free off facebook marketplace! It's a Hans Wegner mid-century Replica so hopefully you'll be able to find something similar online 🩷
Dont forget to varnish it in 6 months And after that keep varnishing every 2-3 years so dust doesn't build up
absolutely - that's the plan soon as it's dry!
It looks amazing!
He looks so realistic ❤❤❤❤
That looks so cool. What brand of paints do you use?
I use artists quality oil paints from a few different brands - Langridge, Windsor & Newton and Gamblin
So cutr
Your so underrated!! I love those designs so much!! :3
Aw thank you lovely!! They’re all available right now on my website if you like them 🍎
great artblog, best regards!
You’re doing so fine girl!!! Good luck with you’re up coming markets and drops xxx
@@sallylillian2760 thank you so much for the support lovely! 🥰🥰🥰
loved this video! good luck with finders keepers lovely!!! XX
@@indyapearceart thanks so much angel! 🥹💗 I felt so vulnerable sharing some of the more real sides of my day to day life but so glad you liked it 🫶
Veery nice
Good luck for the market! I hope you sell out!!
Girl you’re so underrated! I know you’ll have so many subscribers in the future!
Omg this is the actual sweetest comment ever 😭💗 thank you so much angel! I’m only new to posting on yt but love the community here so much already
@@alessiaeart❤❤
❤ your style. So sweet.
Thank you so much lovely! So kind 🥹💗
Um time traveling??? It still 2024 tho
I launched my calendars for 2025 super early this year because I couldn’t keep up with demand for last years ones! 💗
I've always been interested in being a full time artist!!! It's so cool to see people living my dream! Was it hard? How did you even begin to start? Is it fulfilling or even possible?? I would be really interested to hear how you started this career and what it takes!! Sorry if I'm being to straightforward I tend to get carried pretty easily 😅
Haha don’t be sorry at all - it’s definitely a very tricky career that requires a lot of hard work but it is absolutely possible and super rewarding! I am planning on making a UA-cam video all about how I transitioned to being a full-time artist because there’s so much info I have to share about it! 🫶
@@alessiaeart that's great!!! I'm looking forward to it!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love seeing your process! ❤
Thanks so much Daisy!! 🥰💗
So cute ❤🎉👌
loved this alessia!! so productive omg i’m obsessed 💘💘💘
Aw thank u angel!! Trying so hard to get on that grind again!! 🥹💗
You're so gorgeous. <3
Gorgeous video! It’s so nice to see you get your spark back in Brissy!! we will have to catch up soon ❤️
Thank you my love!! Absolutely we need to hang while we’re in the same city for a bit!! ❤❤❤
Melbourne winters are brutal and I can't imagine how cold you would've been in your studio (plus the extra challenge of working with ceramics and having to adjust to different drying times etc) I struggle enough in my studio which is a little caravan so it's not that hard to heat up (much harder to cool down in Summer) I'm glad you were able to make the decision that's best for you 💕 Also loved the snippets in the antique stores, I always love pausing to see what I'd buy if I was there 😅
Thank you so much for your sweet comment omg! 💗 I absolutely agree, Melbourne winters are so tough - especially cause I’ve been super used to the hot Queensland weather my whole life 🫢
Hii!! I loved and really enjoyed your vlog hehe! Super cute! So proud of you for making decisions that align with your happiness! ❤ would love to see more vlogs of life as a ceramicist!
Aw thanks so much angel! 💗💗💗Definitely got more daily vlogs coming up soon!
