Etsy Haul! Unboxing Craft Kits From Small Business

This week, I wanted to support small businesses as well as treating myself, so I decided to buy some craft kits. In this video, I will be unboxing craft kits that I purchased from small businesses on Etsy. I will link below to each craft kit. Let me know if you enjoy this style of unboxing/haul video. Most of the craft kits I purchased are budget-friendly, a great way to test the waters with a new craft.

Miss Blondie is like: yeh, yeh, personalised cards, cute packaging, creative stuff, blah blah stickers, manuals...surrender the box mum, that's mine. 😂😂😂😂
Such lovely idea Catherine, I love it that you chose small indie businesses 💖 the unusual shape mold in your resin kit is wine bottle tray and wine glass holder. Once you make the tray it slots on the neck of the bottle and there are two slots to slide the stems of the wine glasses in.
So, felting as a technique was invented by nomadic tribes of central Asia thousand years ago who first noticed the properties of wool fibres, needle felting was invented in the 1800s to produce insulation from shredded woollen garmets, poor quality wool, even hair from soldiers haircuts.
My favourite is the embroidery, but that is one of the textile techniques that I use. I don't have a etsy shop yet, but I am on Instagram as @little_misscrafty, pop over and say hello 💖

Resin can be addictive. The larger mold is one that goes on the top of a wine bottle and holds 2 wine glasses. Have fun 😊😊😊😊

Faux granddaughter you are so sweet. I have a YouTube and Etsy but haven't done much with either due to lack of viewers. Thank you for being so generous. I'm SHYsArt. Hugs

I especially love the needlefelt guinea pigs 🐹😍

[Gee]

Ooh going to have a look at these businesses. I love small businesses! 👍

[helenablignaut]

Katherine, I think there are laws about selling and shipping alcohol 😉

[sharonsunshine]

😊👍 We should all try to shop from the little stores/shops. That one certain company has become much too large.
Such beautiful packaging on the first one.

Hello, Catherine. Please make a video of you trying those crafting, I would love to watch you trying new crafts.

[carolmiller]

You can tell that they were all packed with love, care, and an eye towards the anesthetics. Here in the United States, it is against the law to send any alcohol through the mail - either locally or internationally. Everything in the gin kit looked high-end - the glass vials, the labeled herbs, the glass bottles, and the metal funnel. Even though you have to provide your own alcohol base, I imagine you got your money's worth. Blondie made me laugh 😆. She was so cute trying to help.

Such a fab idea for a video, I love it! And respect that's there's not a freebie in sight 😌🥰

[vickiegriffin]

Love all of those ideas. I can’t wait to see your needle felting.

[curlygirl]

Great video Catherine. Love that you want to support small businesses. I’m inspired to try the felting kit!

[melaniewest]

Great idea for crafts. I hope your Duke comes soon and you are very happy

[carribelle]

Lovely to see someone not taking loads of freebies for the sake of it. I embroider a lot, cross stitch too. It is very relaxing. I really want to try resin too, it looks great fun. Would love to see follow up video of your exploits. Have fun. xx

[liridonakelmendi]

I absolutely love that you did this! Supporting small businesses while learning new skills!

[avrilwilliams]

I love buying from small businesses on Etsy

such a great video : )

[lifeofaimee]

I love the look of the embroidery kit...so looking forward to seeing you create with these...

[vanessasaenz]

Omg loved this video idea!!!! Please do more like this! And follow up on the krafts and if you enjoyed

[leslikuyweski]

I'd love to see these as you complete them. I've done lots of embroidery and find it so relaxing. I have a wool felting kit (a penguin) that I haven't done yet. The resin looks fun. I've never tried that. Enjoy your crafting!

[ritahawkins]

This is such a great idea. I think I would like to try the resin craft and the embroidery kit.
The creative way these small company package their goods is very unique. Thanks Catherine
