Hi darlings! In today's blend of art tutorial & studio vlog (and maybe ASMR? 😆), I'll be showing you a behind-the-scenes look at an important part of how I run my online store - packaging orders, how to ship art prints (I use USPS), and what shipping supplies I use (both flat envelopes and in tubes). Hopefully these tips can help you guys with your online business and help you sell art online. 😘 Thanks for watching!
xoxo,
Happy
PS - Speaking of online shops, I used to use Etsy, am currently using Squarespace, but I've been thinking about switching to Shopify. Have you guys had experience with it? What is your favorite e commerce platform? 😊

The footprints on your carpet was so funny at 0:06 :D

@anarotar5748 5 лет назад

I soo love hearing you talk about art and giving us rookies advice, and I like to play one of your videos in the background while drawing or painting. It somehow increases my confidence and boosts my desire of doing and achieving more. Love and support your art so much

@cozy_nostalgia 5 лет назад

The editing on this video was wonderful! Something I need to learn to do. Thank you for sharing how you ship your packages.

@Hollowthere_ 5 лет назад

Thank you for this video! This is so helpful (although I got a long way before I begin selling my art) and I've always been curious of your process. Much love 💕

Happy D is not only a great artist and youtuber, but she cares for her fans, customers and shops so much. The amount of care and love she puts into each packaging and painting is inspirational!

@Itzzy515 2 года назад

But it's not ecofriendly! Too much plastic😐

@KaseySnow 4 года назад

Thank you for making this video! It was super helpful to give me some ideas about best practices for shipping prints! I am about to start selling prints on my own and this was a great starting point to help me know what I need to get started.

@jakefinhall3613 4 года назад

Thank you very much for this video. It was informative and to the point. I've seen so many artists on RU-vid drone on and on about unrelated things, probably in an attempt to get the video length to the mythical optimal time to maximize their visibility through RU-vids algorithm. Your's was brilliant. I'm now a subscriber! Good luck and stay creative.

@kittykatsfc13 5 лет назад

@sebart9321 4 года назад

I wish those shipping tubes weren't so expensive :0

@dza8757 4 года назад

Sebastian Art I’ve seen some dollar shipping tubes at the dollar tree!

@dianaibarra822 3 года назад

Also they look like paper towel tubes so you can reuse and up cycle

@Zaccura 5 лет назад

This was super informative!! I just have one question, for shipping the flat envelope internationally, I noticed that USPS has quite a distinct pricing difference between envelopes that can "bend" vs "rigid". And I was wondering when you put the chip board, are you still able to get the lower price? Because it seems a rigid large envelope costs approx. twice as much as a letter envelope. Any help would be super helpful as I've been trying to understand this for a while. :)

@shelliingle571 5 лет назад

@kY0nge 3 года назад

Thanks for the video! What's the minimum requirement for chipboard strength? The 100 strength are a bit pricey.

@wernerviln5957 3 года назад

@GPYCROFT 2 года назад

Can you share why you left Etsy ? I've just started my Etsy shop but would welcome hearing the pro's and con's of which options to use.

@typalo66 5 лет назад

Do you put any tape over the end caps to make it more tamper proof?

@amermaid8400 5 лет назад

This was very informative, so thank you! 😊✨ I‘m currently informing myself about using less plastic and was wondering if you would consider using less/no plastic for packaging your orders? I understand you have to make sure the prints arrive safely, but maybe there are good alternatives. ☺️ If you are interested in this and find out something I would love to see a video about it. Sending love, your art is so beautiful. 💓

@raffaelwestram4578 5 лет назад

I know of an artist that instead of plastic sleaves she Buys a Large roll of tracing paper and then cuts it to the size of the order its a beautiful alternative because The Tracing paper acts like a veil where in the painting is slightly concealed and tracing paper goes really well with paper envelopes and twine I do hope they develop stronger paper envelopes or Biodegradable packaging materials. Since its a one time use material making it biodegradable is great but it does need to conceal moisture and protects the work like Plastic does I hope somebody finds something like that

@LilahDandelion 5 лет назад

Maybe baking paper could work?

@amermaid8400 5 лет назад

Annabelle Liu Art Yes, I agree. Definitely use up old materials first, but would be great if she looked into alternatives once those are used. 😊 It’s great all of you come up with ideas 😊

@AllisonLyonArt 5 лет назад

I just ordered eco sleeves from Clearbags.com for my prints and watercolor paintings. I'm also trying to not use as much plastic :)

@solegood777 3 года назад

what tube size do you recommend for 12x18 prints?

@typalo66 5 лет назад

Do you have any problems with the paint sticking to the plastic envelopes? Or do you spray a varnish sealer over the prints?

@teresamazotti1315 5 лет назад

I used Shopify a couple years ago and didn't have much luck. I haven't had any luck lately with Etsy so I am considering going back to Shopify. I was selling my hand made jewelry on Shopify, not my artwork.

@ayele9869 2 года назад

Hey!Thanks for this. What type of paper do you use for your prints?

@kimorasart6170 4 года назад

So after you get it all packaged and get the mailing label on, would you have to pay for USPS to ship it or can you just drop it in a blue collection box and not have to pay for it to get mailed? (For using chipboards)

@Anna-qwerty 2 года назад

Do you ever use 9x12 clear bags for your 8.5x11 prints? I see you have the other size linked in your description but the place I am buying from only has 8x10 and 9x12. So I am wondering if you feel 9x12 works or if it's too big for your prints.

@TrevorJustice 3 года назад

Thanks for this. I just searched for "100pt chipboard 8.5x11" but couldn't find it anywhere close to that size. Where do you recommend buying 100pt chipboard in this size? Thanks again!

@vanessapangkey8319 3 года назад

Would you send a few printed arts all in one tube or you rather send them each in different tube?

@kirksingletary3788 4 года назад

Where do you get your shipping tubes and caps?

@millie4785 4 года назад

Really Helpful

@Life.Aspects 4 года назад

Curious. What paper do you use for prints I am nervous mine may bend in the mail. Or be too curly.

@seans758 4 года назад

Do you calculate the cost of each part per piece of the shipping cost into the item you’re selling? Like if it costs $6 in total to use one of each item do you add that to your shipping cost? Or make shipping free and add that to the cost of the actual item?

@miccocruz 2 года назад

Hi! With the prints you put into tubes, do you not have issues with the print curling?

@annabrown2976 4 года назад

How do you ship matte prints? I have found that they are too thick to roll without creasing in the tubes :/

@Joanne94087 2 года назад

i saw your shipping label overlapped at the end and covered some of the barcode, would that be okay for USPS to ship?

@aarongiles3848 2 года назад

@PixiePrincess501 5 лет назад

Can you show us how you turn your paintings into prints? I notice you use oil paints, so I'm curious as to how you do so.

@jesters.workshop 5 лет назад

Hey love your videos. I was curious if you saw the plastic controversy with Baylee Jaye and if so, what your thoughts were.

@GenreChowderStudios 5 лет назад

Doing in-house shipping seems like a LOT of work. I’d imagine with total control, you can add lots of personal touches (like a surprise free sticker, perhaps 😉) and be intimately connected with what you’re shipping. You may have answered this before and maybe I just don’t remember, but have you ever considered porting your stuff over to someone else to print/ship for you? Being able to cut out that middle man would save you money on that specific front, but do you notice that you lose a ton of time and space to shipping? Plus, doesn’t laser ink cost a lot?

@victoriasangel8438 5 лет назад

@stevecarrillo 4 года назад

Do artists use their real home address when shipping art? Isn’t this a kind of a risk?

@pinging1586 5 лет назад

Eeek! Never been this early for anything 🤣🤣

@JonahKyle Год назад

You may wish to update your links, as many are going to error pages. Great video!

@HamiltonWard 4 года назад

What do you use to ship though? That's what I'm curious about. I see that you used a USPS sticker but how did you get that?

@lumaabdulhadi5171 3 года назад

I use Etsy shipping labels or Pirateship.com

@rolliepollie74 5 лет назад

I'm new to shipping my art, so I was wondering what to put for the return address because I'm not too comfortable using my home address and I don't work from an office or studio? that may be a silly question but I was wondering if there were any alternatives or if using my home address is something I just have to get comfortable with.

@collectionofdm8974 5 лет назад

Mikey you could get a PO Box at your local Post office.

@donttalktomeyoureannoying8736 5 лет назад

Mikey you could be just overthinking it. I am an artist too and I have passed out hundreds of business cards with my PERSONAL number on it and no one seemed to bother or stalk me. You could opt for a P.O. Box though

@rolliepollie74 5 лет назад

Lana's Daydream I don't think I am overthinking it. I live in a city with high crime rates so being vigilant is something that is important to me. The PO box is a good suggestion though, so thank you. I don't know why I forgot PO boxes existed.
