My favorite vlogger!! 🎉 ahhhh Wednesdays are my favorite!!!!
I love you! 😭🩷
Emily why don’t you combine book lovers lane and late night reading. Your late night reading book festival. And making the middle of the sleeve the book lovers lane and the top a celestial type look with the moon and stars and background include tress etc OR have a trail from bottom lead up to book lovers lane and the top celestial back ground …..idk it’s an idea not sure if I made sense but I picture it in my head lol😂. Love your work I’m sure you’ll do amazing!
Ohhhh I’m liking the idea of this! 🤔 okay I’m going to do some sketching and see what all I can put together 😻🌙
❤ glass tumbler idea. Yes I have seen these all over my instagram feed. 🎉 I saw my order (journal) being pack . 😮 Earthquake . ☺️ stickers.
We felt the earthquake here in Philadelphia too. I was working and thought my mom had fallen down. I never would have guessed it was an earthquake. As a squirrel whisperer (thats what my husbans calls me) I would love to see some designs with squirrels on all the things.
Have you considered doing something sort of Secret Garden-inspired? This wild sort of floral explosion with some garden touches? Maybe stone walls and old trees? Something like that? I think it would make for a beautiful book sleeve or print in your particular art style.
I forgot to mention that I really appreciate your sharing the ups and downs of your business journey with us. Your candor is appreciated. I really respect that
Hi! I did a secret garden bookmark/sticker set for my monthly clubs last summer, but I LOVED that aesthetic so much so would definitely be up for designing more like that! 😻 I’ll have to see if I could take any of those designs I already did and turn them into a book sleeve too, that could be so pretty 🩷
I would love to see tulips 🌷and yes please more bookmark pouches. Ooh and bunny’s 🐰☺️
Glass tumblers! Yes plz 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
They just got delivered the other day and I cannot wait to show everyone! 😻
What if you did a horizontal book sleeve? Like the spine is facing outwards? I think it would look so cool and go really well with your magnetic bookmarks since they don’t stick out the top like traditional bookmarks.
Ohhh I’ll have to look into that as an option!! 🩷
Gorgeous video as always Emily. I really appreciate you and your honesty. Hope you enjoyed the eclipse. :)
Thank you!! And it was MAGICAL 🥹
ahhh Emily i'm so excited for the botanical collection you're working on! even though i mostly read non fiction books i know i could still enjoy your 😊very cute bookish merch! about those glass tumblers you mentioned, i bet your art will look great on those especially if you use uv dtf!! ❤
Thank you! I’m so excited! I feel like I’ve been hard at work on this for sooo long now 🤣🙈
❤ glass tumbler idea. I have seen them all over in my instagram feed. 🎉 I saw my order (journal) being pack. 😮 earthquake. 😊 stickers look good.
I just wanted to say that I received my mystery box and I LOVED everything in it!!! I absolutley love the washi tape stand that came in it. I have it setting on my computer monitor stand with pretty washi tape on it and it looks so cute!! Useful and cuteness overload is what products should be!! Of course I loved everything in the box but that one item just stands out as so cute! Loving the new booksleeves you released this week, so cute!!! I look forward to your videos every week, they are like setting down to watch your favorite show and I love seeing all of the pink and bright colors in your studio... You have turned me into a pink girly LOL I have always been a teal person but as of late, I am finding that I have migrated to pink!! LOL.
I look forward every Wednesday for you to post you keep me company.
Well I’m happy to have you hanging out with me every week! I hope you enjoy today’s vlog! ☺️🩷🌸
Fantastic vlog, watched and enjoyed till the end ☺☺
Yayyyyy!! Thanks for watching! ☺️
I'm really excited for your new stickers to be in the shop! I love your videos Emily!!
Me too!! They’ll be here this month 😻
i loved the vlog this one was different but enjoyed throughout and seeing you drawing beautiful artworks is always a pleasure ❤ and seeing you do cooking and all it really felt more vlog 😂❤ i enjoyed it
Haha I’m glad you enjoyed it! I wanted to switch it up this week and try to include other aspects of my day besides just business stuff ☺️
Your videos are always such a joy. They are my happy place 😊
That means the world to me and is all I could ever hope for! 🥹🩷🩷🩷
Gosh, I REALLY REALLY wish that I could afford to order some of your products. I just ABSOLUTELY LOVE them so much! ❤❤
Awww thank you!!! 🥹🩷✨
Sunflowers ❤
Can you do a ASMR PACKING❤️❤️ NO BG SOUND JUST THE ORIG SOUNDS OF PACKING, I LIKE YOUR VIDS ESPECIALLY PACKING VIDS PLSSSS
I’ve done one before a couple months ago! ☺️
Emily, maybe when you make the leaves and vines you can make on a separate layer and then rotate and flip to get new shapes lol. Like that you can turn one vine into maybe 4 different sections or more if you rotate and flip different ways. Love the video. It's important to let other small business owners that there are down times too. ❤
I’ll have to give that a try ☺️🌿
I would love a mushroom bookshop! Also hedgehogs!
I’ll see what I can do! Love those ideas! Perfect for spring time ☺️🌸
I have used hungryroot for years and LOVE them. I’m allergic to 6 of the top 8 common food allergies and their stuff is just 😍 especially that tzatziki sauce you had, it’s one of my faves!
Ahhhh yes!!! I’ve been so happy with their service 🩷
I love reading in the meadow with mouse. Could you make more products of itI can't wait to place my order for book sleeve
I definitely can!! 🩷
The slow season is very common. I’m in food blogging and my site has so many visitors Nov-Dec and then January is so slow, then again before Easter😃 I think it’s same for everyone, just different timing
Yes! I think there’s definitely different busy and slow seasons depending on your industry and niche 🩷
I'm in New England as well, but I was taking a nap at the time of the earthquake.
you can do birds and butterflies for the spring drawing
I actually am doing a birdhouse library design with a lil librarian bird! ☺️
Your style is very unique, nobody could ever duplicate it for sure. The brushes you use on procreate are interesting too. I’ve been meaning to ask but I kept forgetting to ask, would you ever be willing to go live on UA-cam? Maybe do a live drawing or packing session?
Why thank you!! 😻🩷 and that’s something I definitely want to try! Believe it or not I’m a VERY shy person haha so I’m very anxious bout going live but I may give it a try 🙈
When we get an over 6 ritcher scale here in México, then we cry 😅
I can only imagine! 😞
Snow? What?😂💕💞
I was like what the heck 🤣
@@emilycromwelldesigns hahah i totally understand😂🤣💗
Yay ! you should do an eclipse bookmark!
☺️🩷
You’re adorable, as always!
Yes, an eclipse bookmark would be amazing.
Do you know the crescent city trilogy by Sarah J. Maas....so good. Also the slow season is perfect for planning, get new inspiration, think about new products, analytics all that stuff, like you said, its not really time in the busy season
Yes I’ve read the first two books! And you’re so right, even though you may not be busy packing up lots of orders, it’s a great time for planning, marketing and sooo many other things that you don’t have time for during busy months! ☺️
❤
Hi Emily, really enjoy your vlogs. Do you ship to the UK at all? Your Toby is like a tabby version of my black floofy Overlord, Sir Radley of Knowsley, love him so much. Love your designs, the book sleeve with "Kitties In Love" is gorgeous, I love the colours you’ve used. Take care and "see" you in the next vlog...😊
Awww I love that name!!! 😻🩷🩷 and yes I do! I offer international shipping in my Etsy shop ☺️
Brilliant, I'll have a nosey. Thanks. My floofy overlords full name is...His Royal Floofy Majesty, The Right Honourable Sir Lotsatail, King David James Radley 1st of Knowsley...AKA Sir Radley the Sabertooth, AKA Sir Radley The Brave.. 😂😂😂
Tulips
I was wondering if you are going to have any Botanical t - shirts for purchase. I would love to get some of those. 👚🌿🍃
I definitely am! I just designed two earlier tonight and will be designing a few more ☺️
Hiya! Glad you didn’t have any damage from the earthquake and snow storms! I had 4 tornadoes in my county all within 10-15 min from my house all within an hour! It was a harrowing evening! Our tornado sirens were going off back to back - felt like air raid sirens in the war! Yikes! / What art program do you use on your ipad? I had a wacom tablet years ago and never got the feel of it. Retired now and would love to sketch without all the art supplies! Thanks! Take care! ❤❤❤❤❤
Oh my goodness that’s wild, I hope everything is okay in your area! Tornadoes are so scary 😞
I draw everything in the procreate app on an iPad! ☺️
For the Book Lovers Lane…could you do a series of book sleeves that when lined up become the full Book Lovers Lane? And I think someone else mentioned using the celestial scene above…I’m thinking it’d be sorta like how you make the acrylic ones for the bookshelves. So instead of the full Book Lovers Lane on one book sleeve…it would be one part of the whole per sleeve…am I making sense? 😂😂😂
Haha yes you are! Y’all have given me so many great ideas so I definitely need to start sketching them out and see what would work 😻
Okay we need to know what pens you use to draw on the iPad?!?
I use an Apple Pencil ☺️
I am obsessed with cows. Could you do something cow. Note pad, post it…
I’ve been wanting to do some highland cow designs actually! 🩷
Slow because April is tax season and school vacations.
Hi emily how are you doing today
I’m doing okay! How are you? ☺️
You eat so healthy! I know that you have food restrictions, but still it’s impressive.
I try! ☺️
We had an earthquake here in Philadelphia.
It sounds like it was felt in so many states!
earthquake alhhh pray for u 🤯😱
Am 56% through reading Ruling Sikthand by Victoria Aveline...sci-fi, some b rooding romance, a king ruling a tower city, a human who becomes queen in order to protect people of earth. So far so good! 🩷❤️🩵
OHHHH that sounds so good! 😻
