I like how you get right to it without a lot of unnecessary talking. Your technique is great because you demonstrate it while talking about it and explaining. Thank you!

@cherryb48 5 лет назад

Your videos are more encouraging than others! I feel a bit more confident now. Cheap markers are the way to go at the beginning. I got crayola markers at the dollar store! Keep up the good work!

@hannahdowell4048 6 лет назад

I was at my wits end with hand lettering after 1 day before I saw this video. THANK YOU for reminding me it is about having fun and imperfection is ok! so helpful with technique too, & the attitude & approach necessary to have fun with this. love love love

@amberbaronejarreau3906 7 лет назад

This is a great video! Thank you for taking the time to go slow and do step by step. I am just dipping my toes into the Hand lettering world and your video almost (almost) takes the fear out of it. THANK YOU!

Thanks for watching Amber!

@melindabaird4239 5 лет назад

One of the things that I learned in a calligraphy class is to always hold your pen at a 45 degree angle.

@CaseyClaudia 7 лет назад

I've really been getting into these hand lettering techniques and the bullet journal trend and aesthetics (even if i don't own one..yet) but as i was watching your videos I realises you have a small number of subscribers, and it's so crazy! Your videos are so well made, they're so relaxing and so informative at the same time, oh my god you deserve to become a journaling guru! So yeah, i basically just commented to tell you that you're amazing, have a nice day ❤

@JaimeBedard 7 лет назад

+Casey Claudia Aw thank you so much Casey! Your comment made my day ❤️ I'm so glad you enjoy my videos! Let me know if you have any questions about starting a journal or would like me to make any videos in particular. Have a great day!

"BEST HOW TOO VIDEO BY FAR" !! You make it less stressful and much more fun ! THANK-YOU ✍

@pieceofvita 4 года назад

This is the most helpful video so far 💖 as soon as I stopped following the tutorials exactly and just did what felt comfortable, my letters got instantly better. Still need to practice, but the shape is there! Also I loved what you said about your journal being a place to grow and practice, its so true because you can get caught up in all the beautiful inspo and feel inadequate in the beginning 💖

@tri9370 6 лет назад

I thought your video was so refreshing despite the lengthiness of the video I wanted that to keep watching it & did not want to fast fwd on this video for the fear of missing something & u were NOT boring in any way shape or form (no pun intended). Keep watching it over & over.

@sarazorel 7 лет назад

Calligraphy is one thing I get so frustrated with. I'm so glad I stumbled upon your channel. I was actually looking at Bullet Journal inspirations bec Im currently doing one and I fell in love with your brush lettering! Thank you so much. You helped me a lot. keep it up! ps. binge watching your videos right now as well.

@egtw98 5 лет назад

You are amazing! I nearly gave up on hand lettering till I stumbled on your video...i get it. You are so clear and easy to understand! You make it make sense! Thank you thank you thank you!!

@jillg.8783 3 года назад

I took up brush lettering a few weeks ago as a distraction during COVID-19 lock-down in Melbourne, Australia and of the literally hundreds of videos and articles I've read up on the topic, it's YOUR video, where you're saying to relax and have fun with it, that has finally given me that "ah-ha!" moment. It's all just now clicked, muscle memory finally taking ahold as I wrote the alphabet along with you! Such an awesome feeling to finally "get it"! Crayola markers: good-bye. On to a real brush pen!

@najeeamurray323 7 лет назад

Thank you! This was so refreshing and just reminded me to just have fun and enjoy!

@belindahall5220 6 лет назад

Awesome video!! Thoroughly enjoyed it!! You're a natural teacher!

@chrisandjaimelove3695 7 лет назад

I love this one! The drills are so helpful! Sometimes we forget that to get really good at something like this (and like you are) it takes PRACTICE! I would love some more specific things to practice. I've done these drills a bunch of times and I will continue to practice! Thanks for putting these out! P.S. We're name twins! 💕

@jgonzalez7998 6 лет назад

@chigirl2028 7 лет назад

I love this video. Thank you for getting right to it and not having a long intro, as most of these videos are way too long--when I watch them I want to scream GET TO THE POINT! And thank you also for not saying "Hi, Guys!" More importantly, thanks for teaching me this!!!

@JaimeBedard 7 лет назад

Hahah, thank you for watching! I know what you mean and tried to avoid the things I dislike in other videos. I'm glad you liked it!

@kacienemeth2233 6 лет назад

@pattyolgin8118 6 лет назад

Love your teaching style! I'm just beginning and I appreciate that you get right into it and give tips and tricks along the way. So glad to have a use for the supply of Crayola markers I can never resist buying at back-to-school time. Thank you! I'll be joining in again soon. :) New to video tutorials. How do I find the worksheets you spoke of?

Thank you very much, your demonstration helps a lot. It is very much helpful for a beginner. You got a new friend here. Keep going.

@stevieballinger3227 6 лет назад

This is excellent! I’m not into the technical side, so your encouragement to just go with my own flow was perfect. Also, the tip on the playback speed is super handy!! I’d never heard of that before. :) Take care, and thank you!

You are so sweet aileen!

@johnhippisley9106 6 лет назад

just because there is a proper technique to something doesnt make it stressfull. it actually makes it much more fun because once u learn to position your hand and hold the writing utensil properly its so much easier and more comfortable to write.

@momoc2661 6 лет назад

Thank you so so much! This is super helpful! hope i found this earlier

Aw, I'm so glad! Let me know if there's any specific videos that would help. Thanks for watching!

@maryprotzman8088 5 лет назад

I love your videos and can't wait to get started! Even your voice is soothing and relaxing. Can you tell me how to access the practice worksheets?

@JaimeBedard 5 лет назад

Thank you so much Mary! I have links to a ton of great practice worksheets in the description of this video. Good luck!

@itsjustsara7694 3 года назад

Can you please do a video on lower case calligraphy the way u did it in this video .Thanks

@nicasialopez5118 6 лет назад

Thanks so much

@jillg.8783 3 года назад

Also, the black Crayola you use at the end looks super juicy. As juicy as the Faber-Castell Big Brush at the beginning of your video. I've bought a big box of broad line Crayolas for this new hobby but noticed my black marker looks far too dry compared to yours (and to my other new Crayola colours). Any tips?

@audreyfreedman6469 7 лет назад

@kristiehowze8278 6 лет назад

I see this is an old post but I am having such issues with crayola markers. The letters all look the same. I practice the drills but when I try to do letters I don't see the thin and thick. They just all look thick. Help help.

@babboosbabydoll 5 лет назад

Thanks for your great video! How long did it take you to learn hand lettering?

@Olivia-xp4dn 7 лет назад

Hi, i've recently discovered your channel, and i wanted to know if you could do a video on how to start a journal if you have never done one in your life, ps your channel is one of my favorites

@JaimeBedard 7 лет назад

Aw, thank you Olivia! I've done a new bullet journal set up and also tips for bullet journaling in the past, but let me know if those don't help! Thanks for watching!

@calistaabreu2842 4 года назад

@jeangeorge3143 5 лет назад

Thanks for video

@theresehoney199 7 лет назад

Thank you for posting this video. I am struggling with the thick downstrokes: how hard are you pressing down with your Crayola marker? Does the tip get softened after a while? My downstrokes don't seem as thick as yours.

@JaimeBedard 7 лет назад

Thanks for watching Therese! Yes, I press down pretty hard with my Crayola markers and try to rotate the marker so I'm not always pressing down on the same spot. I hope that helps!

@theresehoney199 7 лет назад

Thank you!

@halimapeterson2677 3 года назад

I'm happy I found you

@Maddie9185 7 лет назад

Great tutorial.

@JaimeBedard 7 лет назад

Thank you!

@Maddie9185 7 лет назад

Jaime Bedard I will continue to practice but I have a long way to go and I hope not to get discouraged. Going from pressing hard to pressing lightly is my biggest difficulty.

@johannaaalto8869 3 года назад

Thank you! ;)

@wherearemyberrieskam4628 6 лет назад

Next time please make a video using the crayola super tips ☺️

@fridasofia5568 7 лет назад

Loved this video! I have a problem with actually writing the letters , like I can do he thick and thin strokes but I don't actually know how to MAKE the letters:( helpppp

@JaimeBedard 7 лет назад

Thank you! To help practice forming the letters, I would try working on faux calligraphy. That way you can plan out how the letters are formed and get used to what part is thick and what part is thin. Other than that, just keep practicing and you'll get there!

@fridasofia5568 7 лет назад

Jaime Bedard thank you so muchhh!

@JaimeBedard 7 лет назад

Of course! You can send me a DM on instagram if you still need help!

@winston2770 5 лет назад

Hi, I think you would be good at a flourished copperplate script. Check out Suzanne Cunningham on youtube. This hand is so beautiful and I think you would enjoy writing it. Have fun with Calligraphy!

@ve3-j4hdarkskybadblack89 5 лет назад

Hi I am just a beginner in calligraphy using crayola and I struggling on how to shift the lines from thin to thick. Please help me. I also stressed out.

@kiwigirlNZ 5 лет назад

You need to practice your pressure. The width of the lines is ALL to do with pressure.

@kit7647 7 лет назад

What sketchbook is recommended so that the markers don't bleed through (much)?

@journeywithluvhurts1252 7 лет назад

Kit Pinault I just 28 or 32 pound laser printer paper nothing really bleeds through unless you going over it multiply times

@JaimeBedard 7 лет назад

I agree with Journey With LuvHurts! I practice a lot on regular printer paper too because it's cheap and easy to get.

@AwesomePipa 7 лет назад

Jaime, your handwriting and overall aesthetics inspires me so so much! I am loving every video you make for us, and your bullet journal is just so delicious to look at. Unfortunately I can't find Crayolas easily here where I like, so I went for a Faber-Castell PITT Artist Pen B, and I'm making my way around it. It is surely not the best for beginners, but I'm in love. I've been using your calligraphy as inspiration and practice. For a future video maybe you could do a ''Spread with me'' kinda thing, were you just show us doing a quote, doodle or whichever you would feel like sharing!

@JaimeBedard 7 лет назад

Thank you Filipa! I'll definitely do a plan with me in the future! That's too bad that you can't find Crayolas there. Hopefully there's an alternative! I love this Faber-Castell marker, but it's definitely a little tricky to get the hang of. Thanks for watching!

@kamaleshsingh7795 3 года назад

Love you lots

@jennyrosemandingiado7707 5 лет назад

How do u hold your marker? I’m left handed

@kiwigirlNZ 5 лет назад

I’m left handed too, and have done calligraphy for years. I hold my calligraphy pen/marker the same way I hold an everyday writing utensil.

@carolynworthington8996 5 лет назад

kiwi girl I’m left handed too, and tried to do calligraphy years ago with a left handed calligraphy fountain pen...and just couldn’t get it to work. I love the idea of using markers like this - will try again!

@MinersMadness411 6 лет назад

I know I'm late to the party. But great video!👌

@kashh02 6 лет назад

Sad that crayola markers are expensive at my place. But i bought it anyway. T_T

@christieatus9688 7 лет назад

Loved this! Would you mind doing a video on hand lettering, but with a big brush Faber-Castell pen? I just bought one & I'm having a hard time with it. Thanks!

@JaimeBedard 7 лет назад

Thank you! And absolutely, I'll include a segment in my next video about the Faber-Castell big brush. It's being released today!

@tinapreece17 5 лет назад

Exactly what i was looking for.

@silvinalira9849 5 лет назад

5:24 damm it I already bought expensive and also bought crayola markers and still can’t do it 😂😭

@kianaly1157 6 лет назад

This is so useful! However, it isn’t useful for someone so useless T_T It’s so bad! I don’t understand how you get the huge strokes immediately to a small one! I do release pressure but there’s no difference! Somebody help meee!

@danielashleybaker 4 года назад

Great video for someone who knows how to do hand lettering... lol. She wasn’t want to show how to hold the marker at all, which is fine if you have any basics.

@TIMAFEY2 4 года назад

You're going a bit too fast so I had to slow it down. Of course, you make it look easy but like my mamma always say, practice makes perfect...
